I never played these originals back in they day - would you say 3 is better than 2? Do we get to go back to the police station in 3?

Even though these games were full on survival back in the day (meaning APINTA) I'm hoping this one has the cheat code for infinite ammo right off the bat - say what you will but I still have a blast playing these games without a challenge - it's all about the scares and atmosphere for me.

Koby

No. I always preferred 2 over 3.

I don't think it ever goes to the Police Station. You're all over the city being chased by Nemesis for most of the game.

3 is far more actiony than 2 for sure.

I never really played 3 but it was always thought of as the lesser of the first three games. I avoided it because I had zero interest in a game where you're constantly being chased but I'll give this remake a shot.

Thanks guys

Excited, but give me CODE VERONICA (my favorite) remake already!!!

Koby

I figure we'll get it Spring 2021. =)

Ha, they changed Jill's outfit. In the late 90's original, she had a very short skirt and in this remake she has jeans. This was no doubt done to avoid outrage from today's uber feminist culture.

Yes you get to go back to the police station but you don't get to explore it anywhere near the level that you do in 2.
I will give this a shot. I won't lie though, Code Veronica would have been my preferred game to be remade.

But were they really only gonna charge $60 for both together?, I doubt it. Maybe for a bundle on XB2 & PS5.

RE3 pre-orders have already been on sale for as low as $44 for PC.

Already pre-ordered. =)

2 is considered the best of the OG titles by most fans. The one thing that people back then wished they had more of was being able to spend time in the city, and 3 provided this.

That being said, I also preferred Code Veronica which was developed and intended to be Resident Evil 3. Internal politics over the Dreamcast vs PS saw Nemesis getting the 3 in the title.

Yay Code Veronica was cool

The 2nd half of CV remake in ANTARCTICA is gonna be awesome!

That video put me over top and I did all on Xbox credit. The guys just said they felt so unsafe and tense at all times. I love that in my horror games and Resident Evil seems to nail it in many incarnations. I really like remastered 2 and will finish sometime, but this also just looks so good and same spirit as 2 remastered.
So this is same time frame as 2, right? Just different characters, different story, different part of Raccoon City?

(before update by Capcom)

Resident Evil 3 Remake: Safe Rooms Still Safe From Nemesis

Update:
Capcom confirmed that Nemesis will not be able to enter designated safe rooms, according to GamesRadar.

The story that Nemesis would be able to breach safe rooms, which previously were impenetrable to monsters in the game, came from a preview that reported Nemesis attacking Jill in a room with a save spot. Capcom says that there will be certain save points that aren't considered to be safe rooms. The music will a big indicator for which are which.

So while there is a chance Nemesis can attack you in an area you can save in, safe rooms will still be a nice respite you can relax in without fear.

Does this have same control scheme as the remake of 2 that just come out?

Koby

Yes, although with some changes. 3 will have some dodge mechanics. Also the knife no longer has a durability bar as it will not break in 3.

Also the game has now gone as cheap as $39 for pre-orders on PC.
