Square Enix's Parasite Eve series hasn't inspired too many games since it debuted more than two decades ago, which is weird because the way it infused RPG combat with survival horror resourcefulness attracted a very loud cult following, but two exciting indies are looking to change that. 

On the surface, Parasite Eve looks like one of those late-90s, fixed camera angle horror games that blatantly aped Resident Evil's frights, but in reality, it set itself apart as a wild genre-blending experiment that stood out even in Square Soft's most experimental era. Having Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi and Kingdom Hearts composer Yoko Shimomura on the development team didn't hurt matters either.
