1.the graphics are rehashed from the other games mostly RE 2 only they look crappier.
2. the items are floating, spinning defiances of physics and common sense.
3. the motion capture is terrible, the enemys that are gifted with the ability to jump (a skill denied to the player.) the enemys seem to slow down in mid flight. the zombies shuffling motion seem to be all the more drunken puppet show than usual. everything looks like crap
4.the voice acting is terrible these people did not care about their job. it was like they were all bored. they all sound completly detached from reality. they have no emotion in their voices. except the sewer dwelling homless balding hobbit. it sounded like they had a grand total of 3 voice actors for the entire game.
5.the weapons are completly random, you have the Glock 17 and Sig Saur and a Berreta in the same group as a Nambu which is just confusing. and to furthor confuse you, you get a M70 grenade launcher which is almost useless. then a Spas 12 and a S&W model 19 revolver. and you dont get enough SG "bullets" like their the rarest ammo to find.
6. the 2 children in the game are stupid lilly apparently survived only because she apparently is so brain dead the zombies either except her as one of their own or fear her because she could make them dumber. and lott has the most anoying voice ever.
7.Game play is boring there is just massive dead zones with nothing there. for no reason except to take up game space. the targeting is just annoying the dogs are like crack head fast and will fuse with your legs after a period of time because you cant look down. and while they are down there humping your legs? they absolutly refuse to do damage to you. the zombies are just there they are no real threat. they are really more of a minor annoyance or target practice. the Hunters and Lickes are just epic failures due to their decreased intelgence attack and HP. it is the only RE that i know of that you can shoot a hunter point blank with the 9MM pistol while standing still and not only live but get away with fine health 6/10 times. health items are way to sparse competing with SG ammo in frequency.
8.the translations (the phone "hang" up) that is the line that says it all. "I cant remember" is stated at least four times like a rapid fire machingun of i cant remember caliber. is just blazing away. this is one game that i wish i could havebeen hit by one of those bullets and forgotten about it.
9.in conclusion it is not as bad as the playable failure known as big rigs. its still pretty bad. but at least the enemy has AI. and there is some concept of physics and there is background music. but it doesnt play like an RE game. there is just one thing i cant get over it seems to be so laggy and slow.

NOT BAD FOR AN FPS RESIDENT EVIL 7.5 OUT OF 10

I can honestly say that I did not have a bad time playing Resident Evil Survivor. Although I'm a fan of survival-horror, I'm a big fan of first-person shooters, and I have been for years. I can understand why Resident Evil fans b***h about how this game sucks, it's not as awesome as the other Resident Evils(except Gaiden), the creepy vibe is absent most of the time, the voice-acting and story are more cheesy as well, and the graphics actually look worse than the other Resident Evil games on PSone. The game takes place after the events of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis on an island where apparently the infection had been brought to that was outside Raccoon City; where the infection started. You are a soldier, and during a flight on a helicopter a scientist was clinging to the bars on the chopper and he shoots down your flight. It turns out you are the only survivor and you've lost your memory (Gasp!). So you shoot your way through hell while discovering the secrets of your past. The shooting mechanics actually use the same buttons the other Resident Evil games use on PSone (Hold down R1 to aim and press X to fire), except trying to shoot something is not haphazard. The creatures are still gross, freaky and nasty, and the game feels like an arcade game (Think House of the Dead, Carnevil, and Time Crisis combined), plus you never run out of ammo, and you will laugh at the lame story and voice-acting. Still, this game while having better controls than the other Resident Evil games, it just isn't as fun as the others and it feels like it has more thrills than scares. Damn, this was a good Christmas. Especially with getting games like this one, Resident Evil: Director's Cut, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, Resident Evil: Gaiden, Parasite Eve 1 & 2, Final Fantasy VII, XIII, The Punisher, and Mercenaries which will keep me busy for awhile and I'll get to Amazon eventually to say if they are good (So far so good though, really good in fact).

when i found out that there was a resident evil game that i didn't own, i had to have it. although i still have this game for collection purposes, it was awful. this game doesn't seem to fit into the storyline of the resident evil universe, which is fine, but the gameplay and graphics were lacking, at best.
capcom tried something new with this RE game, and i daresay, failed. unlike previous RE titles, this one is played as a 1st person shooter. all elements of horror that i have come to love in the franchise were not present. i am no longer counting my ammo, and rationing my herbs. i like, very much to use head and solve the puzzles and whatnot in RE games, but this game was nothing more than a mindless 'run and shoot' attempt at turning a profit.
as for the graphics, and engine... well, let's just say that my personal belief is that a few people were bored one weekend, and decided to throw together a game, to be completed by monday, and on the shelves by tuesday. (not literally, but it wouldn't shock me to learn that capcom invested little to no time in the testing and improvement of this title. instead of pushing back the release date to clean up the graphics, and improve on thier product, they sent it right out to the consumer.
i feel stupid for buying this game in fear of perpetuating the game developer's assumption: "we can produce a complete piece of TRASH, and consumers will still supply us with thier hard earned dollars". i would hate to think that i have encouraged capcom by purchasing this game.
do not buy this game... or buy it, just don't cry to me when you realize what a huge mistake it was.

WHAT THE HECK!

WHAT A DISSAPOINTMENT! FOR THE RESIDENT EVIL SERIES, THIS GAME REALLY SUCKS BIG TIME. THE STORY IS LAME, THE CONTROLS ARE DIFFERENT FROM PAST RESIDENT EVIL GAMES. FIRST PERSON SHOOTERS SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED WITH A RESIDENT EVIL GAME. THESE TITLES WERE MEANT LIKE THE FIRST 3 RE GAMES, THIS GAME SUCKS LIKE RE DEAD AIM. IF YOU WANT A GREAT RE GAME, GET THE FIRT 3, PLUS CODE VERONICA X, AND RE 4, NOW THESE ARE RE GAMES. NOT THIS LAME RE SURVIVOR.

Ok guilty pleasure

I didn't think the game was as bad as a couple of reviews pointed out. I enjoyed it for the most part. Granted the flaws in the game are noticeable but it's not at the top of my list of terrible games.

The graphics were a bit smooched and not as detailed as the other games. It seemed as the graphic wizards really rushed this.

Sound-wise the sound is ok. The music keeps the game going and doesn't become monotonous. The RE games all have a decent soundtrack.

The controls could have used work but I still found them to be adequate enough.

Just like the RE games this has a decent story behind. You play as Vincent, a guy whose lost his memory and is finding clues about himself. What he finds, though, is surprising and shocking.

In the end, it's not the worst game ever. I enjoyed it. Granted it's not up to par with the other games but I found it all right enough to play to the end. It's got practically everything the other games have except it's made into a first person shooter with mixed results. It's a guilty pleasure.

alright game

Resident Evil Survivor is an arcade style game but the bad news it does not support the light gun if it did this would be a good game but still this game ain't the best but it can be worse i loved the storyline loved it the main character is named Ark Thomas, in the begining of the game there is a scene of a man on the helicoptor rails below his name is Vincent that did all these mass murders. he tryed to stop Ark from escaping the city why because Vincent wanted to kill him because Ark was spying on Vincent of his evil activity and Vincent stoled Ark's dog tag that had his name on it then they crashed Vincent got killed Ark survived Ark got up and did not know who he is or where he is he does not no his name or waht happened or does not know there's zombies and Vincent co workers are telling Ark that his name is Vincent. also this game improves your shooting skills that why i like this game.

RESIDENT EVIL : SURVIVOR is the weakest game out of the series!

Okay, so maybe the title of my review is a little harsh. The worst RE game has to be the OUTBREAK series but even those games are still enjoyable to most Resident Evil fans. SURVIVOR is basically a side story to the "old school" plot but it has very little to do with the story line. It sheds light into the story here and there but over all is pretty much a throw away plot. The main thing that holds this game back from being actually good is the horrible controls. You can't really aim up unless your target catches a zombie/monster in it's sight. Then the camera jerks your vision upwards but leaves you helpless from attacks happening all around you. You'll b shooting something in one direction and then you'll be attacked from another. There is no reason why SURVIVOR is set up this way. The only thing I can think of is that CAPCOM went cheap while making this game. Now, I heard online that the import version of this game is much better. The camera follows you around much like the game HOUSE OF THE DEAD and over all, flows much better. If they would have just made the game this way, it might have been a little more enjoyable than what we're left with here. Leave it to America to go cheap on what counts! Anyways, if your able to put the bad controls aside then other problems in the game start to surface. The outdated graphics (granted part 1 dosn't have amazing graphics but at least that game seemed like it tried) and the boring levels really bring this game down. Did I mention it's hardly even scary? Normally a Resident Evil game is one intense experiance! SURVIVOR however only has a few cheap scares here and there. A zombie stumbles out of a corner, a monster jumps through a window, a dog jumps you out of nowehere. Pretty basic shocks if you ask me. On an end note, this game does have some enjoyable things about it. It does please the average Resident Evil fan and makes for a great time killer on those boring days. If your a fan of the series, check out the game. If your just passing through, play the other Resident Evil games instead. Otherwise you'll be confused and ticked off playing SURVIVOR. Move along folks, nothing to see here!

im a die hard resident evil fanatic and well the game itself i enjoyed it.
the controls are very bad in the game the graphics are lacking compared to the other playstation one resident evil games.
but i did like the story line and the fact that the name says it all survivor.
what i mean above is the fact that there are no save points it makes it more of a challenge and you have to think ahead with all of your items.
there are a limited amount of continues but overall its a fun game and the story line is good.

awesome
