Resident Evil 3 is a reimagining of the classic PSOne Survival horror game, set in the location of Raccoon City which - following the events of the first Resident Evil game - now finds itself completely overrun by the hordes of the undead.On this occasion you play the role of Jill Valentine, who after the events of the first game finds herself suspended, subject to a discrediting witch hunt from the RCPD, and expecting the forces of Umbrella to kick her door in and silence her any day now. Unfortunately when Umbrella do finally show their face they don't com through the door but through the wall as Jill finds herself on the run from the seemingly unstoppable Nemesis who is here to silence thelast of the STARS team and cover up Umbrellas involvement in the apocalyptic events now unfolding in Racoon City.It's going to take you about 6-8 hours complete your first play through depending on difficulty level and how much back tracking you do to uncover the various mysteries of Racoon City, which in this new game not only includes areas chained off for which you must obtain bolt cutters to enter, but also the addition of crates that can be smashed open to reveal loot, as well as simple locks on boxes and doors that can be picked once the lock pick is obtained - after all, you ARE the "master of unlocking"!Your adventure starts in your apartment where you have been suffering worsening nightmares relating to your earlier experience at the manor and conducting your own investigation into the actions of the Umbrella corp when you receive a call from STARS helicopter pilot Brad telling you to get out NOW, at which point you receive your first unwanted visit from the Nemesis, resulting in a tense pursuit scene that give you a taste of just how persistent and implacable a foe he is going to be throughout the game (including Terminator-esque "dun, dun, dundundun music!), only having your fat pulled out of the fire by Carlos - another familiar face from the original game - who is recruits you to assist in helping him get survivors out of the city.Visuals are very good. Characters are extremely realistic looking (although Carlos' hair leaves a lot to be desired!), so much so that in cut scenes you can seemingly see every skin pore, hair, and bead of sweat! Character movement is fluid and natural, and the use of lighting and shadows makes every part of the game scary and foreboding.Sound is also very good. The voice talent is excellent and scenes are well scripted. As you traverse the dark streets and alleys of Raccoon City and other locations, rain will batter windows, the dead will rattle doors and fences, the cries of survivors in their last moments of life can be heard, and zombies will frequently unexpectedly smash through doors or out of abandoned vehicles to give you a shock, all of which creates a very palpable feeling of dread at almost every turn.Controls are similar to those that fans of the franchise have been using since Resident Evil 4. The left stick moves your character, whilst the right stick operates the camera. There are no fixed camera angles unlike the very early Resident Evil games, and this method helps to increase the sense of anticipation as you are forced to frantically search every corner and shadow for threats rather than have the entire area laid out for you to see.The left trigger readies your weapon, whilst the right trigger is used to discharge it. The left shoulder button readies secondary weapons such as the knife. The keypad is used to interact with items, reload your weapons, and access your inventory and other menus. It's all very fluid and ergonomically designed.In terms of story, as I mention at the top of the interview this is a reimagining of the classic original game rather than a simple remake. Whilst the broad strokes of the story line and most of the characters remain the same, the fine details are quite different, so even if your memory is good enough to recall every detail of a game you probably last played twenty years ago, this one should feel almost entirely new and fresh to you, and the way the various sections of the game are laid out is also almost entirely different from the original. There are also some interesting Easter eggs that hint towards the events of the remake of RE2 as well, such as encounters with Kendo, and a reveal on how exactly Marcus found himself infected.The objective of the game is still to escape with your life whilst assisting Carlos, and you will of course still find yourself embroiled in a conspiracy of epic proportions, but at the start you will find yourself restricted to one small part of the map and are required to solve a series of small puzzles or mysteries in order to proceed to other areas. As is tradition, these puzzles are always of the "find fire hose/find key/find 3 x medallions" variety.Whilst looking for key mission items you will also find a variety of useful inventory items to help you keep the hordes at bay. These range from simple ammunition for your weapons, heavier weaponry such as the shotgun or grenade launcher, special weapons such as flash bang and fragmentation grenades, to components that make your existing weapons more deadly or effective (such as the red dot laser sight). The game sees the return of the well known 'herb' method of healing injury (as well as the usual first aid sprays), and also the use of the "gunpowder" system of producing ammunition that first appeared in the original RE3 game way back when.Much as was the case in the remake of RE2, combat remains extremely detailed. You can blow all sorts of parts off zombies. Of course the best way to put a zombie down for good is a head shot, but you can shoot their arms off, or knee cap them to send them sprawling to the floor - and yes - blow them in half with a shotgun if you like!Combat is not without it's problems however.The main frustration I have with it - in fact probably the main frustration with the entire game - is just how difficult it is to put down the average zombie and make sure it stays down for good. One would think that a good single shot from a pistol to the centre of the forehead should be enough, but just as was the case in the RE2 remake, zombies literally take a number of shots to the head to put down for good. It's perhaps not quite as ridiculous as RE2, but expect it to take four to five head shots from your standard weaponry to finish them off.It is the case that a hit to a superficial part of a zombies head such as the jaw will result in quite realistic cosmetic, non-fatal damage (I've had zombie with their entire faces blow off still shuffling towards me), but I've frequently seen zombies take a couple of hits to the brain pan, fall down, get back up, take a couple more hits, fall down, and get back up again! A lot of the time they will lay there seemingly dead (again) and not react at all to your presence when you walk over them, but then be back on their feet when you exit and return to the area a couple of minutes later! My advice: If you see a corpse lying on the floor, give it a poke with your knife to make sure it really is just a corpse!Ammunition is never in plentiful supply and you'll always want to make your shots count because of it's scarcity, so it's extremely frustrating to time and time again hit a zombie right in the sweet spot only to see it shrug it off or get back up for another go at you! Other weapons such as the Magnum, Shotgun, and Grenade Launcher seem as deadly as ever, but the standard pistol is VERY under powered, and sadly it's this weapon that you're going to find yourself relying on for the vast majority of your killing.Zombies are also very, very difficult to hit at all, despite their generally slow movement, as they sway and loll back and forth, and even more difficult to lay a head shot on - let alone half a dozen head shots - so my recommendation for non-hardcore gamers who are looking to enjoy rather than be frustrated by the experience of playing is to go with the 'assisted' game mode that offers a degree of auto-targeting.RE3 also comes with the free game "Resistance", a multi-player co-op game that requires a PSN account to play and involves you taking the role of an Umbrella "Mastermind" as he attempts to kill a group of Racoon City citizens he has captured and placed in a deadly maze filled with traps, zombies, and bioweapons. Alternatively you can take on the role of one of the civilians where your role is to try and escape by solving a series of puzzles against the clock whilst trying to survive an onslaught of the undead.Despite some frustrations, Resident Evil 3 is still a very good gaming experience that will be as exciting for new people who have come to the franchise as it will be for those like myself who are revisiting this game after a two decades long period of absence.

So after been hinted at for quite some time and then suddenly getting announced only a few months ago, finally the game that always gets overlooked has its own shiny new remake but the big question is, was it worth the wait?Well the short answer is yes but it is a shadow when compared to the second game.Of the original trilogy of games, the third entry (Nemeses) was always my least favourite. Not because it was a bad game, far from in fact but more a case of everything it did had already been done in the second game and always had a sort of expansion pack vibe to it rather than being a whole new game and that’s what this remake feels like once again.The remake of the second game is without themuch better game and while RE3 does have some great locations and of course the Nemeses himself (I’ll go into that in a minute) it is fair to say that it adds nothing new from the last game and I’d argue it actually takes a step back in some areas.The story begins with the protagonist from the first game, Jill Valentine in her apartment trying to uncover clues to bring down the evil Umbrella Corporation. After a short opening she is attacked by an unknown creature as she runs for her life into the zombie filled streets and so beings, Resident Evil 3.Graphically the game is still impressive with some amazing character models and superb lighting but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t starting to look a little too ‘familiar’ shall we say. This is now the third game to use this engine (Ironically just like the original PS game) and too many times they have reused the same assists. They have created a lot of new stuff but shelves, doors, textures and so on were used in Resident Evil 7. Do you remember in RE7 that toy bear you pick up that bleeds black goo? Yea, well that’s back again and that’s just one example! There’s even segment where you have to use a car to progress and it’s the same car you use in the RE7 boss fight against Jack Baker. It doesn’t really ruin the game but it does stand out quite a bit once you start noticing and the more you play, the more you see.Another strange thing that has seems to have been downgrading is the gore system. The game is still violent and some rooms in the hospital look amazing with blood splattered walls and floors (this is making me sound like a serial killer here) but the zombies don’t seem to ‘fall apart’ like they did in RE2. I’ve used grenades on them and they simply fall to the ground, limbs intact. Not sure if anyone else has noticed this but it does seem like a strange removal if so. My guess would be that this game has more zombies on screen at once so maybe it would be too much for current hardware to handle.The map area is pretty impressive with city streets covered in debris and of course zombies but some areas from the original are just not there or are only seen in cut scenes (such as the Bar) but you never get to explore it. Part of the excitement of the RE2 remake was revisiting a location that had been ingrained into every players mind and seeing what a shiny new modern version could do. Sadly, RE3 fans will be left disappointed as so many areas are gone or dumbed down. A couple of the original monsters are missing too (I won’t spoil it for you) which is really noticeable as some of them where the original games stamp on the series. With them gone it sort of makes this version feel a little hollow. I was also surprised just how little time you spend in some areas. The sewers for example seem to be over and done with in twenty minutes!The voice acting is good the most part with a few cheesy one liners that would make Schwarzenegger proud. The music is a little bit of a mix bag. Apart from the safe room theme, the music seems to be all unique versions and is either action movie style during boss fights or creepier ambiance when exploring. I did think the music in the hospital was especially good but for some reason the game has no option for the PS1 originals like the second remake did. Again, this just feels like more content that is missing.However, while most of what I’ve pointed out so far could be considered nit-picky there is one area that I can’t defend and that is the games length. It is short, like REALLY short with my first ever play through on normal taking me just over four hours and that was exploring every area till map turned blue (blue means the room is empty of items). Now I’m someone who believes a game should be valued on its content and just because it’s long doesn’t mean it’s better but this simply is not acceptable certainly when this one cost more at release then the RE2 remake did which clocks in around eight hours on your first play through. This is where so much of the cut content really starts to show and while I have no doubt I will replay this game several times, it’s just such a shame that they had a chance to make this even better than the original but instead went for what feels at times like a rushed game to get out before the next gen comes in. It should also be noted that the Mercenaries game mode is gone in this game and replaced with a side game called Resistance but I’ve not played that one to be fair.Now I can’t end the review without mentioning the beast himself, the Nemeses. Imagine Mr X from the second game but on steroids and a longer grip. If there’s one thing this game gets right it’s the sheer terror he brings…when he is allowed to that is. A few times during play he will appear and stalk the player at an alarming speed so much so I found it better to fight him then to run away. There is one section where you have to run back to the subway station as this hulking mass of meat chases you down. It is amazingly intense to the point of I actually found myself using colourful language as I ran. But (of course there’s a but) there are two problems I found with him. The first is too many times his encounters involve running away down a single street or alley as he chases behind you. Your only escape is to run forward till you reach the end of the street where it goes into a cut scene. Do you remember in RE4 where you run away from that giant statue? Well, it’s a bit like that. The other point is more of a missed opportunity than anything else as the Nemeses is not random. I could tell you now every location he turns up and which walls he burst through and I think it would have been so much more terrifying if this was random for each replay. Never knowing when or how he will turn up!So what are my final thoughts on this game?Well, Resident Evil 3 was always going to be a hard game to remaster and I think they did a pretty good job overall. Sadly though it’s short length, missing content that was in the original and some rough edges do hold it back somewhat from being great. Certainly a good entry but I do think once again like its PlayStation 1 version, Resident Evil 3 will be forgotten about in the next couple of years as the second game takes the spot light.I also think fans of the original will be left a little disappointed but it is still a solid entry and I hope one day to see Code Veronica and maybe Dino Crisis get a remake.Gameplay (15/20)Graphics (18/20)Sound (15/20)Replay Value (12/20)Value for Money (11/20)Total (71/100)A good Resident Evil game but not great.

Okay, I wasn't that interested in this game when I first heard about it. Then I played RE2 remake, and I wanted more. I played RE2 Remake to death. I played it to the point where I'd 100% maxed out my gamerscore from it. This was as good, well nearly as good. Well... VERY nearly as good. Trying to explain why I don't think I enjoyed this as much as RE2 might not actually be very easy.The scenario in this game is that you're playing as Jill from the first game come to Raccoon City to look for your brother (Also from the first game) Chris. Instead of exploring just the RPD, you find yourself exploring the whole city and the police station and NEST2, a second secret lab. Sounds exciting right?Well, yes. This all sort of implies you're going to have a much bigger area to explore, but strangely you don't really feel that. RE3 remake feels more linear, more like a narrative on rails, whereas in RE2 remake part of the fun was working out the most efficient way of completing your tasks and moving onto the next area.The graphics and sound are beautiful of course and the voice-acting is fine. I enjoyed the actress who played Jill, I thought she did a great job. Carlos's actor, I thought was let down by writing in places. Some of the periphery characters in this game didn't make as much sense either. All in all it was very serviceable though.One difference I DID notice, was that while cut-scenes interrupted the action in RE2 Remake, in RE3 remake it was set pieces. Parts of the game where control was taken from you and you were forced to deal with something in a way which was outside of the scope of normal gameplay.I also didn't think the Nemesis character lived up to his potential. Whilst he can stalk you in parts of the game, for much of the game he appears in set pieces. He doesn't have the organic, looming threat that Mr. X in RE2 had. His boss battles also became somewhat repetitive.One thing I did like about RE3 was that knives don't break. Knives breaking (Infinite knife aside) in RE2 was quite an annoying feature. I know why they did it there, to stop people using knives to check every corpse without any cost - but I'm glad they dropped that idea.Another area which varied from RE2 was difficulty. In RE2 you have three difficulties I think? Easy, Normal and Hardcore or something. In RE3 these went further two levels above Hardcore with the hardest level called inferno.Now, the difficulty levels DO make a massive difference, but and this is a big BUT, there wasn't the same sense of achievement to beating them as there was in RE2. In RE2 getting an S+ rank was seriously tough. Getting the infinite cat ears from the 'No Way Out' scenario was really hard. In RE3 you can basically force your way through by simply playing a lot. The way this works is you play through the game earning in-game (Not Xbox) achievements and earning Umbrella Credits for them. Then between runs, you can go to the ingame store and buy things such as a manual that makes a perfect dodge easier, costumes, medals which make you take less or deal more damage. A medal which makes you regenerate health and weapons. In the weapons category you can buy the infinite rocket launcher.Now I'll be honest, getting the infinite rocket launcher is really NOT that hard. You just have to play a lot and save your credits. Once you DO buy the infinite rocket launcher the game becomes quite laughably easy. You still need to master the dodge manoeuvre for the boss battles and certain set situations, but it becomes incredibly easy otherwise. There are no S+ ranks to earn in this game. If you play it to death and empty the shop, then it makes the game a doddle. Is this a good thing? Well, I don't know. You can max out this game purely by putting time in and without necessarily increasing your skill, tactics and knowledge of the best routes through. There's only one scenario - Jills. There's nothing to separate the men from the boys. In RE2 if you want that S+ Rank you have to work for it and there's no saying you'll get it then. Sure you can look at guides, but it takes practice, skill and a bit of luck. In RE3 as long as you're prepared to pour the time in you can unlock everything!---In addition to the main game RE3 ships with a multiplayer game called Resistance. This is a fun team game where one player takes on the role of an evil mastermind controlling the environment, setting traps and unleashing creatures while the players all work together to solve puzzles, kill monsters and escape to the next area. This mode is a fun distraction to try after the main game. I can't put my finger on why though, but I find it a bit clunky. It doesn't quite have the polish of the main game. It DOES however mean you can get your Resident Evil kicks for long after you've finished the main game and play with your friends. Personally I wouldn't have bought Resistance if had a retail price, but as it was included free - I appreciate getting it. It is fun, it is worth playing, but personally I don't think I'll put the hours into it that I put into the main game.All in all, a cracking game. One of my favourite games ever, but I think it's overshadowed by the overall better 'Resident Evil 2 Remake' But go on - treat yourself. Buy both! You may as well. You revisit so many locations in these games that RE3 actually answers some interesting questions you might have found yourself asking in RE2. Like why was the shower room wall smashed through? How did Marvin get bit? That sort of thing...Martyn Stanley

Resident Evil 3 was another game that I was excited to play. I loved Resident Evil 2, alongside Resident Evil 7, this game was what made me love the franchise again and not just that, it made me see what this franchise really is about. So playing Resident Evil 3 was a bit weird to adjust to as I know this game is more action oriented than the more scarier ones I played. And you know what, it's still good. Feels a bit similar to Resident Evil 2 but it's still entertaining and fun in it's own way. The only problem I had with this game is it's too short. The only thing that cost the game almost £60 is its multiplayer counterpart that no one asked for. But I'm writing this for Resident Evil 3,I may write a bit for Resistance but mostly for 3.The story once again is amazing as always. But this time, I get to play as Jill. RE 2 made me fall in love with Leon again but it made me fall for Claire's character for the first time. I played Revelations 2 but it didn't really get me. It was RE 2 remake that got me into Claire. Now this time in RE 3, it's Jill's turn. And Jill is even more likeable in this game. Same with Carlos. Even though some of the dialogue were really stupid and funny. Like "I'm not gonna let you die in a Carlos cruel world." And other lines still do. But yeah, the characters were really likeable and you feel like you're a total badass playing them. In RE 2, you play as two characters who don't have much experience. In RE 3, they are complete badasses. But the reason why I bought this was for this one guy; Nemesis. This monster was so stressful to me. Whenever he pops up, I just want to stay away from him, leave me alone. I thought after shooting him, he would go down for a while. Then by the time I'm far away from him, he's there, making this game even scarier for me. The boss battles too made this game even more intense. Like I want this monster to die and leave me alone. This is the Resident Evil I remember and I'm happy Capcom didn't take that aspect of the character away from him.The gameplay is the same as RE 2. But it has some new additions. The dodge mechanic was added and it's a bit useful. Until it doesn't work on some parts of the game such as my boss battles with Nemesis and those monsters who look like plants. I think it's the ones from the hospital. I don't know its name but whoever is reading this review, you'll get it. The gore has been downgraded a bit, which didn't really impress me. The gore in RE 2 was both amazing in detail and disgusting. This one, well doesn't have the same impact. Since this game is filled with lots of action, hell yeah I had lots of fun shooting guns and gunning down zombies, monsters and most of all Nemesis. The shotgun is still my favourite.Graphics once again impressed me thanks to Capcom's amazing RE Engine. Man I love the RE Engine. If a Capcom game is powered by this engine, I would totally buy it. It made the game look so beautiful I couldn't stop exploring parts of Racoon City. It even made the characters look beautiful.Now comes the criticisms. The game is too damn short. I was able to complete it in almost 5 hours. When I completed it, I was satisfied I finally killed Nemesis but I kinda wished they made this game longer. The story felt a bit rushed as a result of the length. I was thinking they should have made this a paid or free DLC for Resident Evil 2, instead of a full priced for a game that can be completed in a day or two.The multiplayer, I played it but there's nothing good with it. I can see what Capcom is trying to do but it's not worth it. I only bought the game for RE 3, not Resistance. I still praised them for allowing me and other players to play as the monsters this time. That was the fun part. It still contains the things I like about the franchise. But that's about it.In conclusion, this game is an entertaining, fun action, a little scary video game with a short, some problems with the game and a unsatisfactory multiplayer. But I believe Capcom will avoid this mistake by the time RE Village releases as I can see they still are coming out with a bang.

I’m a big Resident Evil fan so this review comes from the best place and total honesty.PROS:- Great to be back in Racoon City once again- Gameplay is enjoyable- Storyline fillers are great eg seeing why Marvin gets bitten in the first Resident Evil 2 and how he ends up with a stomach bite- Switching between Carlos and Jill is cool- New points system by earning in game points only by completing challenges eg kill 200 zombies or complete on Standard in exchange for the coins that give extra armour or weapon damage and these can be carried between games in the chest on your profile to make Hardcore easier to achieve an S rank. Infinite ammo weapons available like this alsoCONS (I hope Capcom learn from this)Please play first before reading- It feels too short by about 45mins-1 hour- Not much involvement at all from other members of UBCS- Much of the Nemesis scenes are animated rather than playable- Nemesis is actually really annoying rather than a menace. When you look at the movie and the first game, it’s different with the style.- Boss battles aren’t as engaging as normal Resident Evils- Feels very rushed and compacted instead of detailed like Resident Evil 7 or even the original- It feels like you don’t get much of Carlos’ story or the fact that his surname is Oliveira. The phrase “not leaving you in a Carlos-less world” is a bit stupid. There’s plenty of Carlos’ in latin countries. Even I am a Carlos from Venezuela actually reviewing this.- not as much of racoon City is available as it was in the first game in 1999 or 2000 or whenever it came out.- Dodging the Nemesis is just almost impossible until you get the power up from the store that unlocks after you complete the game the first time.- not many safes as compared to last time- Achievements have been set up to make you need to play the game 3-5 times just to get them.- Price of £49.99 is too high by £10 if you ask me- The back story of Umbrella is lacking- Not enough clips of the Nemesis programme (they could have even used Resident Evil Apocalypse footage cleverly inserted for some explanation of what Umbrella is and what they do like in the first RE3)- Feeling of “it was over quickly is there when you finish”

Last year's RE2 was pretty much widely loved by all, so the announcement of RE3 was met with general excitement. However there were those that felt like the remake of RE3 may fare just as the original did. That being, feeling like nothing but an expansion to its predecessor. For me, its a bit of both. RE3 remake plays almost identically to RE2 remake, same engine, same controls, same gameplay, just with a new dodge. However the dodge has been swapped for RE2s defense items, so it dosent make the game too easy and is a wash as to which you prefer. So yes the game is very similar to RE2, however it adds enough to feel worth your time. Varied locations ranging from neon lit city streets,to a labyrinth like hospital, to construction sites, to sewers. With a revisit to RPD and the signature RE underground lab. Plenty of weapons, unlockables, enemy types and varied gameplay. While you only get one campaign this time around, it is split between two playable characters, in Jill Valentine and Carlos. That's also another positive this game has over RE2, the surporting cast are much better. The big baddy Nemesis is back, and the boss fights and encounters with him are varied enough to never feel boring. His different forms all require different strategies and are so much fun. Little light on the puzzles in this RE, but it's not a major letdown, as this is a far more action oriented game when compared to RE1 and RE2. Classic RE enemies from zombies, dogs, hunters, etc. It's classic Resident Evil. There's also 6 difficulties, 3 of which completely change the game up, moving items and puzzles, so that campaign stretchs even further. A ranking system complete with unlockables weapons, costumes, in game items and perks, and even character bios and models means there's a lot to strive for. It's probably not as good as RE2, it's probably not worth 50 quid, but at just over 20, this is a great RE game. If you like RE, give it a go, you never know you might even prefer it to RE2 like my brother does. Great game, just a little undercooked.

I avoided this game for a year because of reviews and how dumb I feel now.Firstly yes the game is shorter and yes the nemesis is more of a continual boss fight compared to mr x on resident evil 2 but GOOD!Resident evil 2 is great but let’s face it the pacing can be a bit dull and mr x just gets annoying. Resident evil 3 is pure chaos, raccoon city is falling and you feel it. In resident 2 you clear a room of a zombies it stays clear in 3 you clear an area and more zombies appear crawling out from under cars, it’s relentless. Yes nemesis doesn’t continually wander around but they have made it different, nemesis appears in some amazing cut scenes that play like a QTE leading to a traditional boss fight and I don’t mind,in these scenes you see him cause carnage and destruction the likes that mr x never did.I played the originals back in the day and my biggest issue with resident evil 3 was that nemesis was just another mr x, now he is different massively so.Ok the biggest complaint with 3 is that you can’t “choose” a path like in the original..so what? Those choices didn’t make a big impact and now the game has a more story drive narrative and it works great, the abandoned hospital was creepy as hell until it all literally goes to hell and it’s something the game should push you towards. Additionally this game has a real wesker style villain throughout and it gives the whole game a better movie like story. That was something 2 lacked, no real villain other than monsters.This game is around £20 now and worth that price, yes it is short, but honestly it’s a faster paced experience with some amazing details that I couldn’t wait to pick up and play again as I know there’s shops I missed exploring when in raccoon city. You don’t spend hours wandering around for medallion puzzles, great that’s a pain in the backside it was in the 90s and it is now.Don’t listen to critics, games used to only be a few hours not 100+ like everyone expects them to be today.This is a great resident evil experience.

Capcom have done it again with another stunning re-master of a classic original game, Resident evil 3: Nemesis looks absolutely amazing even more so than the RE2 re-master, the game plays really smooth with a good control system for the character, no dodgy camera angles, the weapons in the game all look amazing and deal good damage to appropriate enemies, make sure you reserve that ammo though on the harder settings, the game certainly is scary in all the right places mainly due to the Nemesis himself, a ruthless and diabolical villain created by the umbrella corporation to destroy Jill and other S.T.A.R.S members, he will not give you a breather for long, relentlessly chasing you throughout the game,you never know when he's going to come smashing through a wall in front of you, the Nemesis takes many forms throughout the game as you will have to fight him several times! you do of course face off with many zombies and other nasty creatures as you running around in dark rooms and sewers, you mainly play as Jill throughout most of the game but you also get to play as Carlos in a cool back to Racoon city police department segment, the games graphics are always stunning throughout, they have done a wonderful job of bringing this game back to life with added modern mechanics and graphics but without taking away that classic resident evil feeling, well worth picking up.you get your usual achievements for playthrough and completing various tasks during the playthrough most can be done easy if your a veteran player, make sure you check the list before you start.you will be rewarded with a shop on completion where you can buy items to help you plus alternate costumes.the game can be played on easy to hard depending on your skill.

I've really enjoyed playing this remake. Firstly the graphics are absolutely awesome along with the all round sound design and I love the cut scenes and dialogue. Playability and controls feel really good. I've completed it several times so far but not quite yet on hardcore mode (without using extra shop items). My first run on assisted mode took just over 6 hours but I did collect a lot of trophies and almost every file, charlie doll and item.Although it now only takes me just over two hours to complete on standard mode, I still thoroughly enjoy replaying. I don't yet have all trophies and have a few more records to beat, so there is a lot of game time overall to be had, if you want to fully complete it.I haven't played the extra game 'Resistance' but some people might enjoy that too.Still wish there was more locations to explore and a few more puzzles to crack and there are a few bugs that I would have liked to have been fixed! So it's not a perfect game but a very good one. I miss the extra dismemberment from RE2 remake and wish that the corpses didn't disappear in the hospital scene when you're defending Jill. The new dodge move is very welcome though.Some people have mentioned that this is over priced for what it offers and of course that depends on how much you want to play it. I waited a few weeks after release and got for £35 (used like new) on eBay. After reading the negative reviews, I initially intended to just sell back on eBay once completed, for the same price I paid for it. However, I now definitely want to keep this in my collection because it's simply so much fun to replay!

Bought the outrageously expensive Collectors Edition from Game for £215! Expecting a similarly outstanding experience as RE2... I was wrong to have raised my expectations. Resident Evil 3 released during an actual global pandemic except in the "real world" they weren't coming back to life and shuffling in the streets. Ironically our streets were "dead" because no-one was on them. Anyway, much loved franchise main protagonist Jill Valentine returns with Carlos Oliveira.Jills gameplay is more traditional survival-horror and definitely the better part of the game. Carlos gameplay, equipped with an assault rifle is pretty mundane action oriented gameplay involving just shooting large quantitiesof enemies at once and has no tension whatsoever and can actually be quite frustrating and a little boring. Much was made of the seemingly indestructible Nemesis in the trailers. He relentlessly pursues Jill and you engage in mini-boss battles. After each one he transforms into an even more grotesque monster. Even despite bundling in Resident Evil Resistance, four survivors working together in various scenarios attempting to escape the traps and enemies introduced by the Mastermind is a poor attempt to try and justify selling this game for £50 when it was released.I actually think the silent Mr X who silently stalked you throughout the RE2 remake was scarier than the tentacled Nemesis who was more annoying. RE3 doesn't reach the heights of the brilliant RE2 but it is enjoyable, I just wished there was more of it. A short but enjoyable game. Bring on RE7 Village.

Resident Evil 3 remake is game that takes place before, during and after Resident Evil 2. If you played that game, this one is important. It ties up loose ends and continues the story. Just like the original Resident Evil 3, this game is shorter than Resident Evil 2, very short, my explorative playthrough took me about 6 hours on Standard difficulty. Therefore some may say this should be a cheaper title, however it more than makes up for its length with quality.The characters are extremely likeable and dialogue is well written, Carlos and Jill's relationship is very believable. Nemesis is an incredible villain, I do prefer him over Mr X due to his expanded move set. I just wish he had more of a presence in the game.After about an hour or an hour and a half, depending on progression speed he is only seen then on out in boss battles.If I wasn't a huge resident Evil fan I would give this game a 3.8 - 4.0 out of 5. Just due to the short length, lack of nemesis and technical drawbacks. Now when I say technical drawbacks, this is subjective, the game looks phenomenal. However due to the expanded location size and more enemies on screen they've had to remove ragdoll effects from Resident Evil 2, by this I mean in that game zombies would trip over other zombies bodies, fall against objects in the world, their limbs would hang off. They still have dismemberment but it's just dialed back due to current gen hardware restrictions. It does however run at 60fps on the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro.

You can tell the developer did try and that’s why I’ve given it 4 stars it’s really 3.5. The game is a real mixed bag. Some people complain that it’s short but at the price it’s at now I don’t think it’s that bad. Pay £30-£50 then yes it’s too short for the money. But saying that aren’t plenty of other games (COD) The problem is it doesn’t have another character like RE2 or different scenarios which is a shame. So the replay value doesn’t exist unless you are a die hard fan and want an S rank or trophy’s.But what let’s this game down more than anything else is Nemesis. At first it’s great but without spoiling anything it gets frustrating very fast. I just wanted to go back to exploring instead of running and dying.Again you can tell the developers tried but it just didn’t work right in my opinion. It didn’t feel as terrifying as the tyrant from RE2. More frustrating than anything else.Other than that the game is mostly great. It’s got loads of different areas, short but sweet. Some areas like the city would of benefited for it to be bigger and more open and not as restricted. But it’s still fine. They could of included more areas like exploring Michael’s Clock Tower into the game. Just to add a bit more playtime. The graphics are great, the story is great. But it’s just not resident evil 2 remake standard. It’s ok and worth a play for less than £30 especially if you like horror games.3.5 STARS.

This game has amazing graphics, a really fun story, nice mechanics and is a great follow-up to Resident Evil 2 (remake).Basically, play it.The price however might be an issue for some. I finished the game in a bit over 7 hours, I have heard people saying that they took 8 hours. So that means 8 hours for (currently) £24. If you bare in mind the fact that for a new movie on DVD you can expect to pay £10, this seems like a fair price to me but I think that some people prefer an open world game to sink hundreds of hours into. I think this really just comes to personal preference.The story is basically, you have to escape a city full of zombies.The graphics are amazing,each zombie lurches around in such a realistic way however, the graphics are slightly worse than Resident Evil 2 remake. In RE2, dismembered limbs would slowly droop off of the zombie, their bodies would ragdoll to the ground and they would just stay there on the ground, in RE3 the limbs just kind of explode, the bodies have pre-animated death sequences and in some areas the bodies disappear after a while. These are very minor differences and don't make a big difference in play but are interesting to note, I believe that the reason for this is that in some areas there are a lot more zombies and so this game would be more graphically intensive.This game is very good, play it (eventually when the price goes down)

Full disclosure - I'm a huge Resident Evil fan - but this is another excellent remake from Capcom. It looks stunning and plays extremely well - overall it is very similar to the Resident Evil 2 remake, with a few exceptions.This time there is only one campaign where you play as Jill mainly, with some small sections as Carlos, as opposed to two campaigns with two characters in RE2. Also, there are much less puzzles and a bit more action - though it is still scary. Last of all, and importantly, it's shorter than RE2 - it has been designed to be played multiple times, and you earn points each playthrough which you can use to buy items for your next playthrough. The length of the campaign is the only reason this is 4 stars for me,not 5. It's an excellent game all told.It also comes with RE Resistance - an online 4v1 multiplayer game. Your mileage of this will depend very much on if you like this sort of game, but I think it's extremely fun, whether you're a survivor or the mastermind. It's difficult to win but the challenge is fun, and it's quite chaotic but in a good way!Overall, the single player game and multiplayer are both great, just do remember the single player game is short and is supposed to be played more than once. If you liked RE2 or other horror action games, you should like this too.

I’m a huge fan of the Resi series and have every single PlayStation title. Loved the original Res 3 game, had it for my 30th birthday!, and this one is a worthy upgrade/update. Other reviewers have commented on the length of the game and they have a point, it is on the short side at about 6 hours but it’s all action once you’re in it. Lots of familiar references throughout, always a pleasure to revisit the police station, and the story moved along well.Nemesis is as much a pain as he was in the first game, dropping in every now and then to keep you on your toes and that feeling of panic is there throughout the game. Combat is smooth and the familiar weaponry and ammo is plentiful (on assisted mode at least).Jill is an excellent character and Carlos is a huge improvement on the cheesy voice-over guy from the original. Some great set-pieces are scattered throughout - the bit where Carlos has to defend Jill while she recovers from the vaccine injection and the penultimate Nemesis fight - to name just two.I would have been miffed at paying 40 notes for this given the length of it but £20 was a bargain and I’ve just started all over again to get my ranking up! Loved it from the off and if you liked the original then you’ll love this one!!
