In fact, for a brief time in 1998, awkward teenage sci-fi nerds the world over could finally say they enjoyed PE. I'm not the only one who loves Parasite Eve, as the game sold over 1 million copies on Japan alone. It shows in its pretty good localization. It was also developed by two teams: a Japanese team and an American team, with a lengthy portion of its development done stateside. For one, it was the first Squaresoft game to receive an M rating from the ESRB, and it certainly worked to earn it. Parasite Eve is rather unique outside of its hybrid gameplay as well.

The game follows NYPD Detective Aya Brea, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed Aryan-as-fuck half-Japanese woman, over a six day span as the island of Manhattan becomes a gooey, monster-filled nightmare. It got a sequel in 2000 which leaned more towards the Resident Evil side of things, and is itself technically a sequel to the novel Parasite Eve by Hideaki Sena, which I never read, but is apparently fucking crazy. Released by Squaresoft in 1998, Parasite Eve combines survival horror elements and RPG leveling and battles and manages to pull it off, with help from a fantastic soundtrack by Yoko Shimomura. Parasite Eve is what happens when you take Resident Evil and Final Fantasy and just slam that shit together.
