After playing Initial D, which I wasn't impressed with despite its cool computer-generated cinematic moments, I watched a friend pop in a copy and play Resident Evil. Actually, I observed a friend or two play these games since I was new to the world of Playstation, and I was still a loyal Super Nintendo fan at the time. Resident Evil, along with Initial D and Battle Arena Toshinden, were the first PSX games I played. I wasn't familiar with Playstation, as I was ignorant of the next-generation consoles (partly because I couldn't afford $300+ price tag). I remember fondly I was at a friend's house looking at a rental copy of Resident Evil one hot summer day in 1996.
