For:Gamers, horror fans, and retro/classic video game enthusiasts

 Resident Evil institutionalizes the so-called Survival-Horror, which saw the light, albeit in its embryonic stage, not long ago with titles like Alone In The Dark, which also became part of a series that, although earlier in time and pioneering in the field, would not achieve its notoriety nor sometimes its quality.
