| Which game, in your opinion, had the most gripping or entertaining story out of the entire series?
My Opinion: RE 1/REmake- What can really be said? It's the game that started the entire series, and although it had its ups and downs (Cheesy dialogue, I'm looking at you...), it can be extremely entertaining. The characters were well-written, and most of the time, their actions were completely believeable (To me anyway). Its the game that got me into Resident Evil, and its still a game I go back to alot.

| If it wasn't for the dialogs, I'd say RE2, but overall, I think Remake |

| It has to be down to the Original/Remake. Remake because of the additional storylines involving the Trevor family which was superb. Overall a masterpiece. |

| Either 1, 3 or 5.
I'm leaning towards 3 as that's my favorite in the series. |

| They all have really bad stories if you ask me.
Revelations may be the best story since its written by the guy who did Cowboy Bebop. |

| I thought I was the only one Mercy. RE is great for the characters and game play but storywise, it's not really on a mind blowing level. I'm not saying the story sucks, but it's not good either. |

| Excluding the gameplay and the trolls screaming IT'S NOT HORROR resident evil 5 had a pretty good story (compared to the other game's stories) |

| The original started it all but I love CVX.
And at least it's not over used or anything. ... Sorta. |

| What's not to like on the stories? I mean, they're all good. But I will never forget, "Barry and the Jill Sandwich." |

| It's a tough decision between The Original and Code Veronica X. Th plots were both really well thought out. |

| My love for the older games make me want to choose RE2 or RE1 (especially the REmake due to it being much darker) but if I have to perfectly honest RE5 truly had the best storyline in the series. The gameplay wasn't the best but the storyline was perfect and I enjoyed it. |

The gameplay wasn't the best but the storyline was perfect and I enjoyed it. Not trying to judge you, but could you explain that opinion a little more? I mean, don't get me wrong, I like parts of RE5 (....ok, mainly one, the part where Chris rescues Jill), so I'm just wanting to hear a more elaborate explanation. |

To be honest there's nothing to explain, it is was it is and that is an amazing storyline. It had character, atmosphere, tension and something that gripped your attention through out. We got to learn about the loose ends that where left like what happened to chris, jill etc but it brought a even bigger plot twisting conclusion to it all. Even when you first so that the crow lady was jill you where like jill evil ? what has been going on. You also learn deep into Wesker's true plot and the DLC content took you into the story of Wesker murdering spencer and how wesker controlled jill. It was the only Resident Evil title to have such a deep and adventurous storyline to it and I can say I was fairly impressed. The gameplay wasn't to hot but what made me keep on playing is so I could unveil more of the story, it had that certain addiction to see find out more. Which what makes a good storyline, much like the same as what makes a good book. |

Which what makes a good storyline, much like the same as what makes a good book. I agree with Mcghie. And taking the route of including BSAA teams, new characters and everything really gave it a more raw, real feeling. The only character we knew was invoved (at the beginning) was Chris, and seeing him invoved in the situations that happen at the beginning of the game really keep it a character driven and a down to business sort of story (more realistic, and less animeish cliche crap that japanese companies love doing, except the bird mask, that was pretty anime-ish)which is important for a story like RE which has so much fantasy in it. And then seeing that what was apparently a basic op in Kijuju unwraps into a fight for your life quest to stop you oldest enemy and save your ally is incredible, which throws in the nostalgia element for those of us that have been with these characters since the beginning. I really loved the storyline, the gameplay was alright, but storywise, RE5 has a more grown up plot than the others. |

Though I agree with everything said, I must argue this point. The so called "bird mask", and the whole garb, is the outfit plague doctors used back in the 14th century. No anime connections there and I think it was kinda fitting considering everything that was going on. |

And I LOVE japanese style games. They are my favorites. In Japan, game companies really know how to tell a story. |
