Resident Evil: Deadly Silence (Nintendo DS, 2006)

This game is good, actualy its really fun, but its really old. Which dosent
make it any less fun, but dont expect groundbreaking new features! If you like RE period, then yes you will like this, the graphics are the same, grainy looking cinemas but the extras do still make it fun. new puzzles somewhat quicker gameplay, the d-pad is kinda hard to get use to but youll manage. Dont get this video game nerd wrong though, shooting zombies, shooting rocketlaunchers, mixing chemicals, and bad voice acting is now available in take with you size. Wheres the restroom? Ive got a mansion to re-discover!

Well i like evrything about this game, it was a perfect price for a very good game, i highly reccomend it. anyone can easily finish this game in 5-6 hours, its feautures are very good, and i like this becaouse you really use the touch screen in so many ways that its just very fun and exiting too. you will be surprise if you ever doubted the game because its just very good.

basically if you loved the first resident evil all those years ago then this is for you. your able to go back and play the first game and experience the terrible voice acting all over again. there is a new version of the game also for ds which changes some puzzles and some of how the game works. there's also a few more unlockables than before and of course there's now the new multiplayer mode! i'd definatly reccomend this game for any resident evil fan.

This is a really fun game to play. It's just like the original version, with a few added extras. You can do so much on this game its unbelievable! The only dislikes I had were the running and walking part. You gotta get used to walking a certain way on this game. Other then that everything is good.

I have really enjoyed playing Resident Evil: DS. I bought it because I have loved playing RE 4 and I am eagerly anticipating RE 5!! The graphics are as good as can be expected and the camera angles need a little getting used to. The Rebirth Mode option is pretty cool because you get to slash at Zombies and other enemies by using the stylus on the screen. Overall I think that this game is a good purchase and I would recommend it.

For any resident Evil fan this classic remake is like returning home. The new DS mode adds just enough to make it fun to run through this game hust one more time (2 if you use both characters).

Now let's have an all new Resident Evil on the DS please!

The Resident Evil series has taken many different forms over the last several years. Some have made drastic changes to the set up, with varying degrees of success. In Resident Evil: Deadly Silence (RE:DS), we're taken back to the series' roots. And by taken back to the roots, I mean way back.

RE:DS is a simple remake of the very very original PS1 title (not the stellar GameCube remake titled, uhm, Resident Evil). Everything you love (and hate) about the classic PS1 frightener is kept very much intact for the DS outing, from the devious puzzles, the scary dogs jumping through the windows, and the even scarier FMV sequences and horrific voice acting. The Master of Unlocking? Yeah, it's still in there in all of it's B-Movie cheese glory.

A few new things have been added. A new mode has been added which keeps the same basic gameplay intact, but beefing up the ammo and health scattered throughout the game, plus a sexy new combat knife activated with the L trigger. It makes it feel somewhat more akin to Resident Evil 4 than the slower paced, puzzlier versions of the series. Also new to this version is the "Master of Knifing" mode, a first person knifing mini-game in which you... well, stand in one place and knife things, which basically consists of you tapping the DS touch screen as fast as humanly possible with out punching a hole through the screen.

All of these new features are definitely a welcome addition to the original, but, do they bring the game up to date with current gen titles? No, not by a long shot. As I mentioned earlier, the shoddy presentation is still perfectly intact from years ago. The crappy controls are still here, as well as the muddy graphics, and the aforementioned horrible acting (which I actually kind of enjoy in that Ed Wood kind of way). The Master of Knifing mode is mostly just annoying, as in some sequences you'll have to replay it any time you exit or enter the area in which it's triggered, which'll cost you some valuable health late in the game.

If you've played through the original many times, and the thought of slogging through it again with a slightly tinged RE4 feel makes you giddy, pick it up. If you're a fan of the series but never made it through (or played) the original, it's worth a look. If you simply want a portable version of RE to take along with you on the subway, it's a good choice. And, even if you're a casual observer (and pretty forgiving when it comes to production values) you'll find something to like here. No matter which category you fall under, don't go into it with any great expectations or you'll be disappointed. This is a 10 year old game with only minor changes, but it's still a fun game to run through after all these years. 3 out of 5.

This game has probibally been ported on more systems than any other game. Hasn't it? If you loved the action of the original PS1 game then this one - complete with all of the AWFUL voice over that you loved before - will not leave you disappointed. This has some cool FX that are only available on the DS so if you got a DS - check out the ONLY rated M game available for this system. I did and I am not disappointed.

I was very happy when I first herd that a Resident evil was comingout for the DS. Well at first I will cover what is good about the game first of all the graphics are slightly better not much but a bit there are now to modes classic which is just like the orignal and rebirth which has the items moved around and also lets you use the DS's features by fighting in first person knife fights and solving puzzels. Also in rebirth there are less hunters and more chimeras. There is also 2 mini games knife battle where you must face monsters from the game and survive all 5 stages with only the knife and a wireless play mode where you pick an area from resident evil eithier the Masion,Courtyard or Lab. In this battle mode you can play as many of the S.T.A.R.S Team you unlock them,ve by completeing the main game. However the main downside is that it dose no take very long to complete and some people might get bord by it very quickly. The over extras are a new costumes for Jill and Chris and in rebirth mode an extra boss. I hope you find this review helpful thankyou for taking the time to read it DAVID

Resident evil is thee best gaming series out there. (then final fantasy)
i loved the original and love this too and yes capcom, make a new Whole NEW resident evil for the DS its awesome get it.
it is nice to have the game in a handheld format and is just as good as the first. the new features keep you on your feet while playing but you learn to deal with it after getting used to it.

ps shawndawg7960 we don't care that you didn't get it don't give this game a
1/5 if you've never played !!!!!!!!!!! the point of a REVIEW is to review and say what you think of the game you have PLAYED not to complain

it was..ok, not a knockout as you would like or hope for...The graphics were archaic to go along with the controls..HATED THEM ..your spinning in circles most of the time trying to figure them out, and when you aLMOST get the hang of it .. you've already been bitten, or hit several times by a raging dog or zombie. The best part of the game is where you get to use the stylus for slicing action against the zombies..but that doesn't even happen that much, leaving you wanting to play only that part of the game. I advise you get it on ebay at a decent price that way your not to disappointed if you'd had paid full price

I love this game!! If you are any kind of fan of the Resident Evil series, then you should seriously think about buying this game. The game has a different kind if mode called "Rebirth," which is super fun!!! The only down side to the game is the voices!! They sound retarted most of the time!! Well I love Resident Evil so I gave it an excellent rating!!

Great game. Keeps the original Resident Evil for the PS in mind when this was created. The DS goes one step further by allowing the touch screen to kill off zombies. All around excellent. Highly recommend this game for all DS owners and Resident Evil fans.

Rarely found at stores; best for those gamers into gore and excitement for resident evil movies and pc versions. I wish though that I can play more characters than just Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield. I want to try Barry and the rest.

This game is great.
It keeps you going because you never know what to expect or when.
The graphics are pretty good for it being a DS. I don't recommend for the children though.

I don't know why they called it "Deadly silence" except that maybe they were hoping that gamers would keep quiet about the fact that it's just a remake on the original PS1 Resident Evil game. It even kept the same God awful film cut scenes in the beginning of the game. Now, I did enjoy the original Resident evil, but capcom already remade the first resident evil on a Nintendo system - the Resident Evil on gamecube.

Although the game is fun, I would have appreciated knowing that it was just Resident Evil 1. The graphics aren't updated at all either, except that you can change the color of enemies blood. Whoopdy do. Oh, and they have a new little mini game called "knife master" where you knife people like in Resident Evil 4, but using the little DS pen thingy.

If you're considering buying this game, make sure you:
1) are aware of the fact that you're buying a PS1 game
2) actually ENJOYED the PS1 game

On a side note, for anyone interested in the new Resident Evil 5 coming out, the main character in RE5 is Chris Redfield, who was introduced in this first Resident Evil game.

I'm a big fan of the series and I couldn't find this in any store! When it came I immediately started to play it and I'm almost done! The touch screen events are very innovative too! I must for RE fans!

This title is Excellent. Whether you are a fan of the series or not the controls and button selections along with innovative use of the stylus all help to make this game very enjoyable.

The music and sound effects enhance rather than distract from the action going on. There are good moments of surprise, fear and some humor scattered through out the game which help give it a real replay value. The graphics translate well and the puzzles range from being simple to challenging and at no point does the player ever get tired or frustrated of playing the game.

The story line is engaging and draws you in from the start to finish. It offers characters drawn from the Resident Evil universe from Kenneth, Richard, Wesker, and the indominatable Barry and many others which connects it for fans of the series to other titles in the series.

It takes place at the same time/mansion from the first game in the series, as you again play Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield, but the game play and options are different, yet comfortable enough to returning players. I think this game really brings out the best in the DS and offers a strong enough value to justify purchasing it and playing it as a portable experience of the main console games. For the price, graphics, and the enjoyment of the game it all adds up to a real treat.

As a Resident Evil fan, I thought I would pay tribute to the series by buying the game for my Nintendo DS. Sadly, I found it being a step down from what I was expecting. Based off the first game, Resident Evil-1996-, this game is pretty much the same as the original with some differences.

One, I found that all blood seen in the game was green for one. I realize mostly kid's play the DS, but as a horror gamer I didn't care for that feature. Second, the game is a little different from the original as far as the puzzles go. Now, some I found pretty fun to figure out, but some I didn't like. Also, an interesting thing they did was incorporate new enemies from the remake of Resident Evil. These creatures are seen in the middle of the game and added a twist I didn't see coming.

I'm not putting down the game, it did have the classic Resident Evil feel, but this gamer wishes they did something more with it. The mini-game with the knife is quite a fun activity to do in the game, but I don't think it's enough. I can't give it an excellent but I will give it a good.

This games holds true to the original, while adding features. If you like the original Resident Evil on the Playstation, you will love this version.

Graphics and gameplay are okay. It would be better if moving the characters wasn't so difficult. Also, some more actions and usage of the DS touch pad would've been appreciated.

The Resident Evil (Nintendo DS) game is a great game like the PS2 version. There is less puzzles and more shooting. I haven't finish the game as of now. The only I didn't like was unable to find the game in my area. Hard game to find except on EBay. Thank-you EBay.

If you like the traditional Resident Evil games, you will like this one too. I takes roots on gameplay from the original resident evil played on the Nintendo and PC.
