If you die and just go back one room dieing stops mattering. Don’t forget that a survival horror cant have that many checkpoints and still be scarey.

Like the X button pressing to get an enemy off of you (I played the PC version and that was set to E). After the first time, I didn't even need to see the button to know which button to press. And though the story line was still somewhat predictable, I still wanted to see the end of it which was most of the drive through the game.Of course, getting the Level 6 suit and upgrading all of my equipment is now my priority, I would still definitely say for someone to rent this than buying it.

I had the the same problem with Dead Rising as well (also has dead in the title is their a pattern emerging), I couldn't read most of the mission objectives and put it down. I just find it quite frustrating that to even play the games as they were meant to be played, I need to have a top end telly. @Wardrox, I agree with your point about the text logs being unreadable on standard def tv’s, I’ve put it down for now until I get around to buying a HD TV.
