Why Resident Evil 3 Is Not A Bad Remake

Why Resident Evil 3 Is Not A Bad Remake

**Resident Evil 3 ** was revealed during December’s State Zelda Tears of the Kingdom amiibo Play broadcast and with it came a somewhat surprising amount of information. The game’s release date, pre-order bonuses, editions, and gameplay were all revealed in an impressively short amount of time. As with _ Resident Evil 2, _ the newly announced remake of _ Resident Evil 3 _ is being built on Capcom’s RE Engine which has also powered _ Devil May Cry 5 _ and _ Resident Evil 7: Biohazar

A good example of this is the way Brad Vickers died in Resident Evil 3 remake. In the original game, Brad died in front of Jill Valentine, after he was captured and killed by Nemesis. This scene soon became one of the most iconic and memorable deaths in the Resident Evil franchise, and surprisingly enough, Capcom decided not to include this in the remake. Instead, the 2020 reimagining finally gave Brad his redemption arc , allowing him to sacrifice his life to save Jill. Sure it's disappointing that Brad was killed by zombies instead of Nemesis, but the change made for a better story, making Brad's death more meaningful as compared to the original g

Although Resident Evil 3 is not a bad remake, it is important to acknowledge that it's not perfect either. Similar to its original counterpart, the game's main campaign is relatively short , due to the fact that the remake did not include any additional storylines to the game. Sure, UBCS member Tyrell may have been given an expanded role in the game, but Brad Vickers died too soon, Dario Rosso's appearance is mostly just for the sake of having him there, and players didn't even get to meet and know the civilians that Jill and Carlos fought so hard to res

Whether their second skin is simply strong, bestowed with superpowers or artificial intelligence, or just pleasing to the eye, a video game hero's armor is likely to become every bit as famous as their name. There are endless suits to choose from, but here's our list of the coolest video game armor s

Look at any major video game franchise character these days, and fans are likely to find one thing: the adventures and hardships they endure are lethal to the average human being. While most video game heroes are exceptional in most aspects, some of their invincibility must be credited to the armor they usually wear into combat. In some cases, changing into the finest piece of armor is a necessity before facing the ultimate boss or simply progressing in the st

In the end, Resident Evil 3 remake is not perfect. It has a lot of drawbacks and maybe the changes that Capcom introduced are too drastic for hardcore players, but it is by no means a bad remake. Resident Evil 3 may not be for everyone, especially to those who are looking for a shot-for-shot reimagining of the 1999 game. But nostalgia aside, the latest reimagining of Resident Evil 3 offers an intense and scary experience that allows players to experience the same story but in a different way, which is what a good remake should

Of course, while finally revisiting Jill Valentine, Carlos Oliveria, and the utterly horrifying Nemesis is the next big experience for the franchise, it is worth wondering where Resident Evil's newfound enthusiasm with revisiting its roots will lead following the remake's release. While many fans are naturally hoping Capcom might return to the likes of Code Veronica or even the first game in the series, it's also worth considering whether the third game's groundbreaking sequel, Resident Evil 4 , would - or more importantly even should - receive a full remake in the same vein as Resident Evil 2 an

Now, the subsequent creatures that are featured on this list are monsters that were developed by Capcom for other Resident Evil games that did not make the final cut. Headlining this list is the ultra-creepy Spider-Man, which is a monster design that was rejected during the development of the Resident Evil 0 . The monster appears to be a giant tarantula spider that is taking over a human host. The monster design surfaced during the Developer Diary video of Resident Evil 0 Remaster , and while unlikely, it is interesting to see this design come to life in Resident Evi

The objective of the game is either for the survivors to successfully escape before time runs out or for the Mastermind to stop them. The Mastermind uses multiple cameras through the facility map to keep surveillance on the survivors while utilizing different cards to spawn traps and monsters, such as zombies, zombie dogs, lickers, and even the Tyrant itself, Mr. X. The Mastermind can also control these monsters at certain poi

However, will Resident Evil 3 remake only stick to monsters that were seen in the original 1999 title? Or will it introduce new monsters from other Resident Evil games or even creatures that were never seen before? Although there is no way to know until Resident Evil 3's release to know for sure, here is a list of some monsters that we think would be great additions to Resident Evil 3 remaiq_game-1024x683.jpg
