Again, every game since the begining of time is a survival game. No game encourages dying. So a "survival" premise doesn't mean the game is a survival horror game at all. Is Umbrella Chronicles a survival horror game? It has the same premise...

And while resident evil 4 has a survival horror premise and setup, the execution is not survival horror.

Imagine a horror movie setup...teenagers in the woods, surrounded by small japanese girls that come out of TV's, zombies and all kinds of other creatures.  The only problem is tha those teenagers are packing Uzi's grenades and snipers and are blasting away through these creatures until the very end...

Would this be a horror movie?

Dude, that does sound like a horror movie to me. 

Aliens is considered horror (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090605/) and it certain has advanced weapons and tons of ammo.  AND they blast their way through EVERYTHING.

 

 Lol...nice example.

Aliens is listed as Action, Thriller, Horror, Sci fi on IMDB. I guess people had the same arguments about it as we do about resident evil 4:)

I would classify Alien as Sci Fi horror where Aliens would be...wow...tough call...
