Dead Aim while not perfect manages to combine the feel and game play of the RE series and add the light-gun in and it works well.

What you will find is plenty of labyrinth-style gaming, bone-chilling sound effects, gore galore, finely tuned first-person shooting, amazing CG, stunning creature design and crazy detail. [June 2003, p.63]

PSX Nation
Good graphics, a short quest (by RE standards), mediocre music/sounds and a permanent sense that youre playing an action game thats trying to be a House of the Dead-type shooter (or is it a light-gun shooter thats trying to be survival horror adventure?) diminish Dead Aims appeal as it moves along.

This obscure video game brew not only sounds like a garbled mess, it plays like one as well. [June 2003, p.60]

Total Video Games
Whilst Dead Aim is executed sort of well, it just doesn't have anything memorable, is too short to be an engrossing one-player game and doesn't have many compelling reasons to be played through time and time again, because of the adventure elements, that are somewhat boring if you just want to shoot and shoot.

There was definitely potential here; it's just hampered by its short game length (you can beat it in one sitting) and lack of compelling characters and storylines. [July 2003, p.33]

While not doing anything particularly innovative Gun Survivor 4 is frenetic, fun and supremely challenging on its 'extreme difficulty' setting. [May 2003, p.103]

The pace is so fast, however, that you'll likely finish the entire game in less than three hours. [July 2003, p.76]

Sorry, but the near total lack of horror in this survival horror game bored me plumb to sleep. [July 2003, p.116]

Just an average Resident Evil knockoff with a gimmick. [July 2003, p.58]
