    TEW1 style was just perfect. From the weapons and their damage/impact, to the enemy styles. It's theme is just way better than TEW2.

    the first evil within I think is amazing. its creepy as hell and the real deal as survival horror. its shame it went kinda under the radar and as far as performance it was optimized for ps3/360 and basically ported to ps4/xbox one from what Mikami said in an interview a while back. I love the hip lantern lol I knew right there mikami made the game but in all seriousness that's why resident evil went to crap after 4, he left capcom after he made re4 back in 05. my theory is now they went back to his old demos like the hookman version of re4 with the dark atmosphere and flashlight and remade 2 and now 4 in that style. I read recently capcom tried to entice him to come back to direct the re4 remake but he declined due to his responsibilities at tango. the guy is extremely humble... now that he's leaving he must be confident in the team and it opens him up for a project and rumor has it he's going to direct one game for capcom. we'll see, I hope so.

    This is sad news. I'm a BIG The Evil Within fan, and the fanbase is kinda niche now. If they make a 3rd one, hope they go back to the creepy style of the 1st with the Shinji touch on it.
    Hi-Fi Rush gives me hope, though. With the tease and all the easter eggs.

    tew1 was such an amazing game. Mikami brings such a unique and dark style to the survival horror genre, it’ll be hard to live up to. i do love the second game but it was severely lacking in what made the first so charming. you can tell he had minimal involvement. hopefully they’ll still consider making a 3rd game but if they do, hire a different director maybe..lol

      There was or still is an analysis of the horror approach of the two games years ago, and it boils down to Japanese vs western style approaches. Even the characterizations. I preferred the stoic Sebastian of the original over the 2nd one's by a country mile.

      Oh man I missed the first game. I've never played RE4 but I just finished RE4 remake, it felt just like TEW1. If Mikami could work with a larger studio who can allocate more resources to polish the game, TEW1 could just be a masterpiece like RE4. It is so sad to see it getting forgotten like this.

    Let's not forget the man's underrated cult classic, God Hand (there's Vanquish too.. the gameplay in his games had an addictive and satsifying element). I'm mostly done with gaming after 35+ years, and whenver I feel like replaying a game, I usually fall on one of his games. The original RE and the remake remain my two favorite games of all time.

What *PERSONALITY* are you talking about? Sebastian has NO personality in TEW1. dude is hardly a fucking character. He might as well be a plank of wood sleepwalking through the whole game. A silent Isaac from DS1 has more personality than anything Sebastian does in TEW1. Stop the deluded fanboy cap.
