those two RE titles on gamecube still blows my mind to this day.. it was visually way ahead of its time. Gamecube was eating the competition in terms of graphics
Yeah, it was more powerful than PS2. (Specs may not seem that way, but it was like a racing 4 cyl in a tiny car vs a weak V6 in an SUV. Sure PS2 had the V6, 2 more cylinders, but the 4 cyl of the game cube pumped out better performance and easily won the race.)
The OG xbox was more powerful but that was like the epitome of 'Murica excess.
Yeah indeed, graphics were/are insanely awesome
@@adawg37 false information
Playing zero and remake on it, still look incredible
Yeah, it's a shame they didn't use standard sized disks or that thing would have been a monster. It's my favorite of that generation, but if they used regular disks with more memory then the GC would have been the winner of that generation imo.
The remake of Resident Evil to me is a standard on how you should go about remaking something.
I like where RE2 remake is going, but I also really like when devs remake a game exactly the same like the Crash Bandicoot or Spyro games.
I agree. But I also accept that that approach doesn't always guarantee that money will be made. They are gunna make bank off this RE2 remake, and if it was a remake the REmake, then the chances of people buying it goes way down. It's what happened to the REmake itself(as well as being a GC exclusive). Poor sales for a AAA game. I just wish they would have remade RE2 back then.
@Stab Wound Not all the time. Capcom only cater to certain groups
Independent Record absolutely.
I agree, the REmake 2 is only Resident Evil 2 in name only. It's too drastic of a departure from the original version.
Capcom after the success of the first RE: "I can milk you"
Back then Capcom was small publisher, they need a solid IP franchise
@@fikrijuanda6321 Yeah man I love RE but they need new IP I mean...you can only milk this series so far
@@SUPERFunStick I wouldn’t say Street fighter i’m a fighting game guy and far as i see Sfv is decent receiving new patches on a healthy basis but you are right about everything else tho
Awesome video. Subbed.
i’m so glad dead aim got at least some light brought to it I haven’t heard about it in years and i thought I was the only one to remember it
I like RE5 Chris and the game is fun and I like the coop. Though if it was more like RE4 in terms of puzzles and level design it’s would be much cooler.
Never thought I’d hear the phrases “Resident Evil Remake” and “improved voice acting” but as Captain Price would say “it’s not hard to improve on garbage.”
One more day and a wake up .... wow ...can't wait !
Itchieban1 lol you must have gone to jail that’s what they say in jail
@@bishopcoe4480 They also say that in the Armed Forces for which I served for 12 years ... lol
amazing video
u have really put some effort in it
damn....almost 15 years since RE4...time goes by so fast
it is my favorite 3rd person shooter to this day
I’ve got to say when I played RE4 for the first time it blew me away. It was resident evil JACKED AF. The new controls and cinematic game play was a welcome change for some time, when 6 arrived it had drifted too far. The remake of RE2 is brilliant, it’s mixed all the good parts together nicely.Good job 👍🏼
Of all the equipment and treasure chests I found in video games, "Shotgun Parts" is definitely in my top 3.
I am having so much fun watching my brother play RE2! It is VERY well done you guys, it will have you screaming more than the re-make of the original. I'll say again, VERY well done! LOL!
Resident Evil Survivor was my first RE game. As a child playing it on PS1 it was scary af.
Resident evil 1 was one of the first games i played on the PlayStation i even bought the directors cut just to play the resident evil 2 demo and was hooked, bought resident evil 2 on release followed by number 3, didn't play any of the games up until res 4 on the wii and was blown away easily the best wii game ever, played res 5 hated it, played res 6 hated it only just played 7 and I'm very impressed
never in my life have horror games interested me (i’m too much of a scaredy cat), especially games like resident evil. i checked out the demo, and i surprisingly fell in love with the gameplay and characters. i’m really intrigued to play it, and found it not to be too scary. happy to now be apart of the re2 community and so hyped for re2 on friday!
Oh, sweet summer child. Mr. X is the scariest thing ever in this game.
I'd also recommend checking out Dead Space and and The Evil Within. Both franchises are pretty good survival horror games. The sequels are also good.
Gumfireparalax except dead space 3
@@stalingrad8355 Very true.
My favorite RE games are 2, 4, 7, zero, and code veronica. The remaster they did for 1 was pretty damn good too. But god damn. the RE2 remake was done beautifully. developers should take notes. this is how you do it right.
Kids these days will NEVER understand the aggravation of having to open your item menu to reload EVERY TIME...
I loved re6 could play it over and over its so easy to just pick up and have a hit of fun, storyline was great aswell don't get my people hate on it so much maybe would of been better as a cg movie for some, my all time fab tho is code Veronica lost count how many times I played that back In the day next being re2 original was what got me into it the franchise
I really liked re6 too. I get it's not like the roots of the franchise but it's still a solid action horror game. I thought it was great. I wonder if the reason so many people say it was terrible is because they're jumping on a bandwagon.
Oh and Code veronica was my first ever RE game and I loved it too. I remember how tense it made me playing it.
The original will always have a special place for my gaming heart.... Something about the mystery of that mansion, not knowing WTF happened, being stuck in the woods in the mountains... Also for the time the mansion looked great, the pre rendered backgrounds looked great for the time ..
Resident Evil existed in its 3D form only because of Alone in the Dark. The main designer said so as soon as he left Capcom.
Flawless breakdown man
15:41 that’s actually not true it’s just a rumor some people at Capcom confirmed that code: Veronica out was always meant to be a spinoff
Wow! I had no idea any RE title was ever released on the Sega Saturn .
RE3 is my personal fave. And I hope that's the next Remake!... But as my Faves goes it's RE3, RE5, RE4, RE2, Code Veronica X
So I have been reading up. there will not be another remake for a couple years after RE3 remake. Capcom announced a new Resident Evil game for next year and it is neither a remake or RE8 :D
Resident Evil 7 was amazing and I hope they stick to this concept for a little while.
I love how sometimes game sequels would easily come out faster than what we would expect today, I hate that sometimes I have to wait like 5 years or more for a sequel now. *Cough* Metroid prime
Honestly everyone in the entireresident evil series gets to go to heaven 100% except for Wesker, Simmons, and Police Chief Irons.
Thing is last time playing all the RE series it was about finishing the game and surviving. With the newly released remake it's more than surviving but a story of each character even the npc how they actually affected the next line of RE world. I wonder what's next after RE3 remake though. I have high expection after the RE2 remake but I wonder how would they change the mechanics of the game later on. It would be a real challenge to overhaul it so it wouldnt be stagnant like what happened to RE 5 and 6.
I just finished new remake of Resident Evil 2 with Claire and I finished downloading remake of Resident Evil 3.... they nailed it with RE2 remake... I do hope that RE3 will be same. Though I will do several more RE2 playthrough for sure.
They nailed 2 and failed 3
I heard they are making RE8 which will use some of the ideas from 3.5 where there is a virus that causes hallucinations. not sure if it will be another VR title or not though. There is not much info yet. Also Nemesis is meant to be being remade, too.
I'm so glad you mentioned that Code V was the true RE3, I used to argue about this all the time. Sony had a deal and therefore got the numbered entry, but it was never supposed to be this way.
Great! Maybe you forgot to mention that RE5 wasn't intended to be fully coop, and the first 2007 trailer for the game showed Chris completely alone (also, the atmosphere resembled RE4 a LOT more), but racism and cultural issues made the developers add an african teammate (with a super basic and boring story background). That changed almost everything, specially since the narrative of the game focuses a lot on "partners" and death. Also, the action was pumped up since having two characters gives you more ammo and power
Nice work here. Bravo!
How could you forget to mention the cooperative story gameplay in RE5??? That was the best feature of the game!
Resident evil two was where I started back in the day and now it’s probably where I’m going to end LOL
Resident evil 2 remake is EXACTLY what a remake should be it reminiscent to the RS2 released in 1998 but wit that said I feel like I'm playin a whole new game. I've been really enjoying it n fans of the series that havent played it yet really need to experience it
I’m so hungry that I can eat a JILL SANDWICH!!! *Badum-Tsss*
theres actually one other mobile game. forget the name of it but ive seen It being played on a RE channel. its a really cool game too
What song is playing during the Dead Aim segment? I gotssssta know!!!💙💙💙
Would like to see a new resident evil game made like Amnesia. No weapons. Just you trapped, with the monsters
Now that 2 is remade where's my RE Outbreak Remake and or Veronica or both
Great Video
RE1 RE2 inc remake are the best imo but code veronica is the most underrated and a top gem as well
They Should Re-Do "Nemesis" but I fucking Looove RE:7 & The New Remake for RE: 2
I dont like any of the re games , but you can bet il watch this whole video
I wonder if they are gonna make resident evil 8 continue the story from resident evil 6.
RE1 remake, RE 2 remake and RE4 are the best games in the series In my opinion.
Let's be honest if operation Raccoon City didn't have like the Resident Evil tie-in,it would probably be a decent game
What is the music in the background in first minutes of your video?
The resident evil 2 remake is on the way back to amazing
I used to be a huge fan of the franchise from the moment I played RE2 in 98. It is my favorite game on the PS1. However, the games seemed to get worse as they went on. RE3 was all right though inferior. CV was fun, but it also turned the narrative into a convoluted mess (especially with Claire contacting Leon to contact Chris despite her not knowing where Chris was being the whole reason she got captured in the first place).
I enjoyed Outbreak most of the time and RE4 was spectacular. I actually even kind of liked Gaiden. It wasn't great by any means, but it was an interesting experience. RE5 was a good conclusion to the franchise, but then it just kept going. With how bad the movies became and then RE6 being a Gears of War/Left4Dead/Haunting Ground Bayplosion QTE bullet sponge nightmare, I lost my entire desire to ever touch the series again. I sold off everything except for REmake, 2 and 3 and 2012 was the last time I had ever touched them.
I'm not big on first person games that don't have Metroid in their title, so I never played RE7.
However, playing REmake on the PS4 and the new RE2 remake has reignited my love for the franchise. If Capcom keeps the games like this new one, but also cuts down on the overly complicated jumping the shark bullshit like huge anarctica bases and outbreaks on every corner of the map, I might be willing to get into the newer installments again. Or hell, if they remake RE3, I hope they give the Umbrella story an actual conclusion in that game since their causing an entire city having to be nuked would have forced the government to shut them down instantaneously. It just seems way too farfetched for a pharmaceuticals company to be that irresponsible and that capable.
BTW, I don't know what you mean in your RE2 segment about them hiring a Hollywood writer to do the new story as Noboru Sugimura was not that. He was a cop drama writer that also worked on some episodes to Lupin III Part 2 and several Toku shows including Winspector, Kamen Rider Black, Zyuranger, Dairanger, Kakuranger, and Ohranger. He also was the man who wrote the Onimusha Trilogy and Clocktower 3.
Holy hell, I didn't realise how many games were in between RE3 and RE4.
Aside from Veronica, all filler.
@@raresmacovei8382 I wouldn't consider the RE1 remake a filler... It's absolutely the best classic-style RE game ever.
symphony137 OK, besides Veronica and REmake.
and Resident Evil 0 ...
I know right, I was waiting for him to get to 4 and the spinoff games just kept coming
This was, by FAR, the absolute best Resident Evil breakdown of its games/history ever uploaded on youtube. Very well done, mate.
yesss
Its not as long aa the other videos... its wins in my book
Forgot code Veronica X Though
@Ladies Man coming from the person that calls themselves "Ladies Man" on RUclips. 😂😂 you probably don't even get pussy. Lmfaooo. Have fun replying to ypurself, you fuckin loser 😂😂
💦
"Resident Evil 3's puzzles were simplified to help the flow of action."
Simplified.... *My ass.*
The Clock Tower gem puzzle.
The water sample...
The god damn book compass thing
Thank you lol I knew that comment had to exist before I made it. 3 was the worst on puzzles
The water sample made me so mad as a kid but now I get it
The resident evil 2 remake looks awesome
RE2 remake is one of the best games i have played.
@@nakki123 you should try original re2 and re1 remake aswell :D
@@Almareaver I have played original re1, re2, re3, re4, re0 and re1 remake when they came out. Why i really like re2 remake coz its actually good modern game. I havent played good modern game for years.
@@nakki123 oh cool, for me original re2 remains on top of the list though. You should also give re7 a try, though its bad reputation is one of the best!
genuinely one of the best games i’ve ever played
I haven't touched a single RE title in my life. One of these days I'm gonna buy all of them and lock myself in my room for a couple months lol
You’ll never replicate what it was like back in the day BUT i honestly suggest you get them all on the ps store. Play the original ps1 versions first and then the rest after. I promise you wont be disappointed 😉👍🏼
I would honestly skip to RE4 because the originals are eh by today's standards.
@@PhillipCummingsUSA how exactly are they eh?
Don't skip to 4. You want to play the originals and experience proper tank controls as well as the terrible acting for yourself. 1-3 have a certain charm about them that makes it worth it. I recommend the Director's cut for the first one.
@@PhillipCummingsUSA RE Remake, RE2, 3 and CV stills holds up today a lot better than 4 does.
RE4 is highly overrated.
Well done, man I would've liked some mention of the re4 shopkeeper guy - "what're'ya buyin'? What're'ya sellin'? Come back any time". One of the best ideas they ever had and never brought him back.
Hopefully he will make a return in the remake!!
Heh heh. Whatre ya buyin?
That idea was a disgrace for the concept of survival horror and you little gamers of this new gen of idiots don't even realize that, in the previous games you had limited ammo and you had to save it to survive, this was the main aspect of the survival horror and crapcom destroyed with the abominable RE4 and its sequels
@@Uryen_Hirasakai Very edgy comment you got there, Edgy comment guy.
Kame Senin Thats it’s, let it all out... don’t worry, it’ll be okay. Shhh don’t cry no more, here’s a cookie for your butt hurt. 🍪
So how many RE games do you intend to release?
Capcom: yes
hahaha seriously its kind of ridiculous but so glad of the direction they are going now
Coconut and Water like Tomb Raider, the series that started at the same time and still go on now, they will both be milked to death until the studios stop making profit off of them.
@Radical Larry I’ll definitely say resident evil has been fairing better than tomb Raider lol plus capcom have been mixing things up a lot more well than square Enix with tomb raider. I actually enjoyed the RE2 and re3 remakes compared to shadow and rise of the tomb Raider. Plus the 2000’s were much better to resident evil than tomb Raider.
crapcom will release any random crap so why bother to know that?
When I shot a zombie in the head in RE2 (Remake) and it took 4 headshots to down, but then got back up and startled me and took another 2 headshots and a knife to kill it.... Yeah, I knew I was gonna have a fun/bad time.
I know! I was like, what the fuck. Why does it take so many headshots to kill a zombie. That really bugged me. RE is known for conserving your resources. I hope it's not like that in the final version.
This isn't a bad thing... It makes the game more tense and you have to decide whether to just try to avoid the zombie or waste your ammo. It ups the survival factor
Agreed lol. I was playing it 100% confident that one headshot would wipe zombies out. So when the first zombie busted through that door and took a shot straight to the head and then proceeded to bite my ass I just ran as fast as I could
I think that took everyone by surprise lol I'm not sure if it's going to stay like that or if it was specifically done for the demo. It'd make more sense if it was just done for the demo given the nature of it
Cesar Gatica
It totally is a bad thing because it breaks immersion. It’s difficult enough to get a headshot but the fact that it takes so many to kill a zombie is just stupid. Really dumb design choice
It's hard to believe that Resident Evil 1 remake is from 2002. I did not get to play it until it released on PS4, but it became one of my favorites along with 4.
I just played through the 2015 remaster of the original and the 2016 remaster of zero. For about $23 bucks for a single game collection it was worth it for the huge graphical improvements.
It's amazing how good REmake 1 looked when it came out on gamecube, was so visually pleasing and how I imagined 1 looked through my memories.
Resident Evil Remake has no right to look that good. GameCube was a powerful little box.
Actually the GameCube was less powerful than the ps2 and og Xbox. It was all the doing of capcom
@@tjhicks3600 you have not done your research the PS2 was the weakest of the three, with Xbox being the strongest, gamecube runs at 480 P almost consistently with ps2 barely being able to handle 480p and usually falling into 480i, with xbox being able to handle 1080p, I'm right look it up!!!!!
@@tjhicks3600
Just a few specs to prove my point
ps2 294 mhz cpu
gamecube 486 mhz cpu
ps2 147 mhz gpu
gamecube 162 mhz gpu and the gamecube chips were more advanced as well.
@@PO1PLE GameCube was weak bro. You got any facts to back that up?
@@tjhicks3600 dude I just showed you the specks
The RE1 remake from 2002 is so ahead of it's time graphically
Only six years after the blocky original as well.
Nick i reported your channel for being so addicting and enjoyable
Addictive
I love the RE games, just got into it last year, usually, I dislike vids that are over 25-30 min long, but boy, do I love this video, with the two key key items used in this video, the amount of information of the lore, backstory, whatever you’ll choose, and how much I love RE, it’s so damn fun, and intense at times.
Resident Evil 0 and Resident Evil 1 are absolutely beautiful, I'm a huge fan of pre-rendered graphics
Agreed entirely. I don't get why Resident Evil 0 has so many mixed reactions from RE fans - I thought it was a fantastic game back in the day, and I recently replayed it (along with every other numbered entry) before 7 came out on PC - it still totally holds up as one of the best games in the series. REmake is just in a whole league of its own, though..... that game was a pure work of genius.
@@Sicarius_7 I enjoyed 0 but I remember it being the most difficult in the series (for me anyway) currently loving Re2 remake. They've done an amazing job
yea some love for 0! i don't know why everyone poops on it. i thought it was pretty damn good
I love resident evil 0, still play it on the Xbox one occasionally
Those two are still my favourites. Beautiful graphics, and i always loved the environments in RE 0. There is something with horror on trains.
I remember playing two nights straight non stop to finish RE4. It was sooo addictive.
Still is 15 years later.
It's still amazing. I couldn't play it with the volume on. Too scary. A friend of mine kept shooting the merchant thinking he was a zombie or whatever they are. Ha ha dumbass
It was my all time favourite game when it came out too
i play re4 like 20 times already lmao it is addictive
I basically never play videogames, I'm too bad at it, but I did pass RE4 3 times on my brother's PS2. Hahaha. It was so much fun.
Ill never forget playing the original RE. Such good times, PS felt like the future the game was unlike anything I had ever played. Good times.
So you’re sayin we could have had “zombies may cry”?
Zombies can only cry if they have tear ducts. FACT!
My wanna play Jill and Chris may jump and shoot zombies...
I played RE2 when it came out. I was like 8yrs old and it scared the shit outa me. The thought of undead unkillable people eating me was horrifying, Idk how but me and my cousin finished the game. Took us about a month, lmao
similar story. i was probably 10 or 11. i was playing it alone in the dark around 1 in the morning when the first time you see the licker run across the window happened. nearly shit my pants. put it on hold until day time, but slowly worked my way through the game over the next month or so.
@@oopsimdead2578 OMFG YEAB ANDTHE FIRST DAMN CUTSCENE WHERE THERES SOMETHING DRIPPING FROM THE CEILING, THEN YOU LOOK UP AND SEE THE DAMN THING FOR THE FIRST TIME? I was by myself when i first saw that. And was like NOPE NOPE NOPE closed my eyes and was tryna look for the off switch hahaha
SuperKinahead same, I was 8, first game for PSOne. I had to turn off the console after the freaking zombie gang broke into the gun store and ate the guy hahaha, I had to wait a day before playing the game again hahahahaha awesome memories. I still don’t know how the hell I managed to finish it since the subtitles where in french, I didn’t know English and my languages were italian-russian
I fondly remember resident evil 1, my uncle played it all the time I'd play with him.. I was 6 when it came out lmao.. I remember being terrified.. gotta say though Mr x in the remake scares the fuck out of a lot more than the orginial tyrant.. me & my husband can't seem to leave the damn dark room bc we're too scared to run into him 😂😂😂😂
lol same here, gave me PTSD!
History of Silent Hill next?
@Griever this history of series isnt dependent on stories being connected.
It's simply too depressing...but perhaps shedding light on it could ignite people's hopes once more. Would Konami notice?
Omg yes!
I'm usually not one to dismiss an idea just because another channel did it - I usually feel like multiple channels covering the same concept can do very different things with them... but in this case, and speaking as a massive Silent Hill fan-nerd, I feel like the Twin Perfect channel has probably covered everything there is to cover regarding the history, production, themes, and content of the Silent Hill series. They have a literal 22-video long series covering basically every aspect of the games and movies + additional follow-up and revisited videos.
I want this.
Man this channel and your breakdowns/documentaries is freaking amazing. I really love the long format. Keep it up!
who came here after RE 3 Remake announcement ??
hell yeah
Tri Deny Molana not me. But came here for the history of the game? Oh you mean out of excitement for the new RE3.
I'm hoping Resident Evil 3 changes to first person and Capcom continues with this and takes away from the point of view play in the original
Damn that game flopped hard :’(
@@filmaru8556 really? Am I the only one who prefers the third person perspective? But I’m not in the mood for a fight so I respect you’re opinion
Just a slight correction here:
There's a lot of conflicting articles that say "Code Veronica" is the true RE3, and others that say quite the opposite. From what I understand, RE3: Nemesis was indeed a side project, but Code Veronica was not necessarily intended to be Resident Evil 3 either. There was an intended Resident Evil 3 project starring "Hunk" but it was canned.
If you all have heard information to the contrary, please reply here, I'm interested to learn more. Because of the supposed contract with Sony, there's a lot of confusion about this particular topic.
The game that you are talking about involving Hunk, I undestood to be one of the Resident Evil 4 iterations that got canned. I think there were three version of RE 4 , two fo them were scrapped before the final one was picked and one turned into DMC. I'll see if I can find some sources and either post them here or dm you. Oh and its my understanding that Code Veronica was meant to be Resident Evil 3 and as you stated Nemesis was a spin off.
@@MorpheussUK As far as I know, there were 4 versions of RE4: the first one, that became Devil May Cry, the fog version and the hook man version, that were scrapped, and The final version, that was released.
This Hunk version was the initial idea for RE3. When the Project moved on to the PS2 (and thus renamed to RE4), this idea was scrapped.
@@Devouhan Yeah I'm still looking for some sourcers, but you know what its like. You read and watch a million things over the years and then you can't find it again when you need it XD
@@MorpheussUK lol exactly
I think the issue with Code: Veronica (and why it kept it's development title as it's name) is that when the next Resident Evil was officially announced as being in the works, it was announced as a DreamCast exclusive. For a game that had debuted on the PlayStation. The PlayStation was easily the more popular console, so that didn't sit well with series fans. So you have Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, an attempt to split the difference. I think that's also the reason why Code: Veronica in spite of easily being as good as Resident Evil 1 or 2, isn't as beloved by franchise fans. :) BTW you have, hands down, *the* best Resident Evil retrospective on the net. Well done!
“Where did everybody go? bingo!”
Dr. Loomis wow u late lol
sorry to ruin it but
where's everyone going*
I was 16 when Resident Evil first came out on the PSX. I have been obsessed with the franchise since. Even read the books...I absolutely adored the series until it started not being the game I started playing. Somewhere between 4 & 5 I lost that feeling.
It scratched an itch I never knew I had and gave me a feeling I don’t think I can ever get back.
Everything you said in this video is pretty spot on.
I really enjoyed 7 and it gave me hope for the future of the franchise. No co-op was also a huge win as it brought it back to the slow claustrophobic tension filled experience I fell in love with in the first place.
I’m currently playing RE2 remake and it’s everything that I wanted it to be.
I’m lucky to have this game right now but I’m still very curious as to where they go from here. Im good with a new game or even more remakes like this.
Took Capcom the better part of a decade to get back on track but here we are, in a renaissance for Resident Evil, going back to its roots for inspiration as to where to go with the franchises future.
P.S. I wouldn’t mind a fixed camera style game with updated control and graphics to really get back to the root feeling I use to have. May be in the minority but I don’t care.
Cory Adams I agree pretty much entirely with you. Although I was seven when the original came out. Awesome game and looked forward to watching my parents play every night.
Fixed Cameras would give the already photorealistic graphics a great boost.

this is such an amazing series recap, your channel really deserves much more attention. Keep up your nice work!
It's rare that I ever leave comments, but kudos to you and these amazing "History of" videos you got. I live each one I've seen so far. Keep it up. My up coming paycheck most def gonna donate to your patreon 👍
Keep up the great works!
Appreciate the support!! Working on a new "History of" right this second :)
It’s so hard to believe that re remake came out in 2002. That game is incredible and honestly does not look that old to me. It holds up so well!
The footage in this video is from the remasters of RE0 and REmake. The GC releases look rough these days especially when ran at the GC's low native resolution.
Too bad Capcom can't buy the Silent Hill rights! I mean that series definitely needs a serious reboot and deserves it
Hell kids these days could get a scene by scene perfect remaster and would be blown away by the original story that most people have forgotten.
Damn I remember when silent hill and RE was comparable...look at them now
That was supposed to be P.T.'s job, was it not?
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 Cause the graphics were of cave man technology. A black and grey block of pixels do actualy look something like a very dark grey and sorta dark grey block of pixles.
Lol
20:50 Actually, in the Gamecube version the camera is completly static, it only pins in the PC/XboxOne/PS4 remake's remastered versions, because it needs to be zoomed in to fit a widescreen res, so in many cases tha camera moves a little to keep the character in frame.
Thank you for that clarification, I did not know that! I only recorded the PC version when I worked on this one. Lately I'm been trying to record on original hardware first to avoid mistakes like this
@@Nick930 Thanks for the reply, your channel is amazing and with great content!
I wish you much success
I'm a big fan :)
My favorite traditional RE game is Resident Evil 3 : Nemesis. I loved RE7 and RE2 Remake is amazing.
Heres hoping for RE 3 REmake.
@RomeroFanboy doesn't every Resident Evil game have plotholes? Like. It's a quality game that harkens back to it's survival horror roots.
Quit being a twat.
@@Lowehomie121 ignore him. more than likely bait
@RomeroFanboy Damn whats wrong with you. I don't like RE7 either but at least for a reasonable reason, its just not my cup of tea. Still a good game and its fun to watch but I can only play other Resident evils
@@markymo1115 you know, you are probably right. I should have taken the high road on this one.
RE7 is great
This is such an amazing review of all the resident evil games I know and love including the ones I hated.. Great job man I couldn't find a single argument point to what you said for each game. I believe RE7 and the Remake of RE2 is the gold standard for survival horror games in the modern world, I hope Resident Evil continues to create new stories and remasters old one for updated consoles. I would personally love to see a sequel to the story of Resident Evil 4 Staring my favorite character in the series Leon Kennedy. Thanks again man!
u forgot the S
I just want to see a better love story between Leon and Ada or Leon and Claire.
You sound like the typical re fan
@Reggielacey 223 5 and 6 are the worst in the series, both totally unforgettable, you have no taste whatsoever
The very first one is on its own class just unreachable again... The music, the atmosphere and setting was just perfect matched
I didnt realize the gamecube remake looked so damn good. It looks like an HD remaster from 2018 (like hitman)
The footage here is from the remastered version of that game on PC. It looks much nicer now than it did
Though the footage was from the HD remaster the original remake from the GC still looks fairly good, the REmake has aged far better than most other games its age. The REmake is still a masterpiece.
Both footages from remakes are from new ones not from the old ones (RE1 and RE0) in this video. Im very said that they didnt remastered RE2, I wanted the same game, not the new one. But probably the game will be awesome!!!
@@frenky2825 im sure it will be mostly the same. im super glad they got rid of that weird fixed camera.
@@whiteout0111 For camera its a good idea (but loved that camera in RE 1 and 0). But they didnt need to change anything else :)
Me and my brother played re2 when we were about 10. The scariest part we ever played was down the hallway, where zombies were grabing you through the windows. We both froze for 10 seconds doing nothing just pissing our pants, we turned off the pc and went straight to bed right after that. I miss playing this game with my brother..
What, he turned into zombie or what?
I think Resident Evil is unique in how it is one of those rare instances where something horror related is associated with "nostalgia".
If it's a good game and you played it when you were younger why would it matter what genre it is?
@@TurboNutterBastard I'm just saying how unique it is to associate the feeling of nostalgia with something that is labelled as part of the horror genre. I.e. I don't think anyone has ever said "you know what makes me feel really nostalgic... The Exorcist". Horror and nostalgia are often never really associated, but Resident Evil is and it is unique in that regard.
Resident evil 6 is the worst. I don’t understand why Capcom felt there should be a cut scene every 5 minutes of the game
It’s just me but zero was my favorite no doubt. Loved everything about that game.
I like how it was the first game to implement the player zapping mechanic where you can switch between Rebecca and Billy. Plus Dr. James Marcus was fucking creepy lol. Overall, I would say it's underrated as the horror elements were amplified in this prequel.
I really loved Code Veronica X...! Hope we can meet Alfred and Alexia Ashford again in a remake some day..!
I was introduced into the game when a friend introduced me to Resident Evil 5. I loved Resident Evil 6.
Play 1,2,4 and 7, those are the best ones hands down
@@Ervinabrahamian 5 and 6 are that crazy relative we all like to pretend we don't have
Resident evil 4 was a legendary game.
but a shitty RE game
@@journey95far49 re4 deff feels like a resident evil game lol. Just because it has a different camera angel and mechanics dosent make it not feel like a RE game. RE is all about atmosphere, feeling of being underpowered (which on your first playthrough you do) and puzzles. Re4 checks all boxes.
I remember back in 05 after my grandpas funeral me and a few of my cousins were playing re4 and my uncle came in the room and thought we were watching a movie because the graphics were so good
Re4 isnt my favorite. It's a worthy resident evil overall yea. But I hated what they did to Leon's character as a whole. In re2 he was a rookie cop just trying to do what he could to survive and help others and I liked him. So when I finally got through 4 I just felt like they made him a edgey character for the sake of current times at that time. Everyone around me was getting that haircut and brooding his attitude, and I just didnt see his character development going that direction. Had fun and such, but idk way they moved leon forward from 2 just rubbed me the wrong way.
It was actually shit and stupid and not 👋 👋 good
This RE2 remake is the first Resident Evil i'm actually considering to pick up. Mainly cause of the demo, more games should have demos nowadays imo.
Ireland Forever This set the bar for zombie games. I can see where people can be tired of them, but there’s some great titles using zombies & this one is one of the best ever. Your loss, you might change your mind after release & everyone is loving it.
RE7 is worth it too
@@zxcv010
RE7 is a Silent Hills rip off.
@@occiferfigpucker4840 hmmm, still sold over 5 million copies. Strange indeed *hmmmmMmMMMMmM*
wyd?
part 4 and 7 was good.
Why you talking like your not impressed with RE3 come on man
"you're"
My favourite resident evil because of the nemisis
It's was always intended to be a spin-off nothing more
If u want to play the definitive ResE3 play ResE: Code Veronica
Corps is pronounced like "core" i.e. Marine Corps. The word corpse is pronounced with the "ps" as the end.
PIN THIS COMMENT!
When me and my friend popped this disc in for the first time in '96 we were so scared, and it was so difficult, but we knew it was a masterpiece. Neither of us wanted to be the one to quit, so we pulled through. We then beat R2 and Nemesis together. We ended up in different schools and I have not seen him since. I wonder if he kept playing the series on his own...
That's always sad I had some friends like that, lost touch with em after we beat 3. Always wondered too if they kept following it. We would of killed for the co-op games back in the day when he'd just watch me play thru the first 3
The first RE was one of my all time favorite games and I really liked RE2 and RE3 of which I liked 3 better actually. I did like RE4 even though it was not really a RE style anymore imo. The rest of the series is forgetable for me. Until RE7 which was excellent even though it didnt feel like a part of the story line really. But Resident Evil 2 Remake was the best game since the original game to me. Absolutely stunning. I've played it over and over again and I would instantly buy a RE1 or RE3 remake of this current Capcom team. Btw. very solid review of the series. Well done!
I’ll never forgot going over to my friends house in 2005 to see him playing Resident Evil 4. It was the first Resident Evil game I had ever seen and it really surprised me to see Leon get decapitated by the Verdugo. It was the most violent video game I had ever seen at that point. Definitely first time I saw someone lose a head. I’ve been a fan ever since. The over shoulder camera made the game the most enjoyable in my opinion. I could say I’m guilty of being a fan of the action oriented Resident Evil installments. I liked Resident Evil 5 but the daytime setting made it less enjoyable for me. I loved Resident Evil 6 because of the multiple storylines and new dodge and roll mechanics along with new melee styles. It felt to me like the apex of the Resident Evil games because of the freedom of character movement. I liked Resident Evil 7 but it felt really detached from the lore of the older games. I’ve really been digging the Resident Evil 2 remake. I feels like it’s the perfect combination of over the shoulder camera setting, limited item management, puzzle solving, and story placement in the series.
Sega Genesis was fairly violent. I remember playing a game banned all over the world. It was like a power ranger zord having a western shootout with giant monsters in a static-ish FPS playstyle. I remember shooting arms off of monsters and they-d throw em at me.
.., also splatterhouse anynumber.
you deserve way more attention! great video!!!
I've been waiting for this
@@SlawekYT yeah, I know bro😀
