I just played RoE for the first time a few weeks ago.
Its not that good, even the double barrelled shotgun doesnt do it justice.
Theres no fucking back story in the PDAs with only two or three audio logs total and little to none general emails for you to read making the PDAs nothing but glorified keys, the ending fucking sucks, you have no way of knowing if you are damaging the endboss or not, you have to use your special abilities two or three times in obviously contrived retarded places that make no fucking sense at all, you can predict when monsters are going to appear, and worst of all there are items that a fetus could lift that the grabber for some stupid fucking reason cant.
Only good parts of the game was the last or second last wave of monsters and the claustephobic inducing helmet parts.
