The man was at the helm when one of my favorite franchises sank (Parasite Eve). Even though I don't necessarily blame him for it with all the licensing and writing nightmares PE had with the original novel, I'm still far from trusting. |
The gameplay was much better than the second one... (Which isn't saying anything because the 2nd's gameplay is horrid). The story is nonsense ofcourse... I forgot about that one.
The first parasite eve is classic I thought they ruined that series with making the 2nd one like terrible RE clone.

3rd Birthday did do well in the gameplay department and a few of the early bosses have some good Silent Hill atmosphere...but Tabita should have scrapped that script. At least it brought the original onto PSN.
We can agree to disagree on PE2. I liked the gameplay, but it has a really long 10-hour learning curve and suffered from an obvious shoe-string budget. God forbid the bayonet be a useful weapon in a survival-horror game. The story didn't hold up against the first, but then again only the very best games look good compared to Parasite Eve.
Funny that Parasite Eve is so relevant, though; Yoko Shimomura did Parasite Eve's OST, and she's doing FF XV.

Toriyama wrote that. And then did the same basic plot again for XIII-2...
Yeah we can disagree. PE is probably my favorite story in a videogame (with Planescape Torment I think).
