Resident Evil, To zombie or not to zombie? Options

[unitself]

I was suprised to see that there wasn't a thread about this series in here.
So, I will make one!
um... here it is!

Ok, right now, I am playing RE1 re-make for the GC and I am loving it. It looks great and it has plenty of tense and spooky moments. For some reason, I am able to control this one much better than any of the other RE games I have played.
I have also played and finished RE2 (DC) and RE3: Nemesis (DC). I got about halfway thru RE: Code Veronica (DC), but I got stuck in a bad save with no health and lots of badguys so I stopped playing. I read that they are porting this one to the GC soon. No re-make like with RE1 though. Too bad, I would have bought it again to see it all prettied up GC style.
I am SERIOUSLY looking forward to RE4. The screenshots and the preview movie look freaking awesome. I hope they can find some way to keep the art quality up and still have it all be rendered in realtime. I know there will be a hit in quality, but I just hope it's not too bad.
I've also played Dino Crisis (DC). I kinda liked the way the backgrounds were psudo realtime. I prefer zombies to dinos though, although Dino Crisis 3 looks cool as hell.
Anyways, this is just me rambling about RE games.
Thoughts? Anyone else like this series as well?
What about Carrier? Silent Hill? Alone in the Dark? Blue Stinger? D2? Illbleed? Nightmare Creatures 2? Shadow Man (reaching a bit here)? Any others?

I'm a pretty big RE fan myself. I've spent countless hours at work reading through the various storyline FAQs on the 'Net. I own RE2 (DC), RE: CODE Veronica (DC), and RE (GC). I played through CODE Veronica and absolutely loved every minute of it. Personally, it's my favorite of the series. Battle mode is fun too. ;p I haven't really played much through RE2 yet. I bought it for a cheap price just to own I guess (I'll pick it up one of these days). I beat RE on GC but not easily. That game had some seriously tough moments. I actually played it a little last night (I haven't gone through with Chris Redfield yet). RE hadsome really stunning visuals and great moments that kept me hooked for a while.

I'm waiting for RE4 myself, however, I really wanna pick up RE0 first. I haven't even touched the sucker and it's been out for quite some time now. Resident Evil Outbreak on PS2 looks amazing as well, and it's gonna have online capabilities. If I get the PS2, I'm definately picking up this bad boy.
