Resident Evil
Although it is not the first slot version of the Resident Evil Game to be developed, RESIDENT EVIL VENDETTA is the latest and without a doubt the best. The graphics are simply incredible and the gameplay is the best that these types of games have to offer. But what would also be important to fans of the franchise is that it actually has a story to tell, one which adds to the overall horror theme that permeates the very heart of what Resident Evil is.
