Most PS1s had no controllers with analog sticks when RE2 was released in January 1998. The dual analog controller was announced in November 1996 and released in April 1997... development for RE2 probably happened years earlier.
And moving a free camera without a dedicated stick (or mouse) for that input was always a pain.
Syphon filter was in a much better position one year later.
