Apr 7, 2020We might never get a remake of a resident evil game that tops this one. It really felt like a resident evil game.

Apr 3, 2020Truly a masterpiece. From the start to the end this game is worth buying. It stays honest to its original and also add some part like sherry on orphanage. It has 2 main story and have option a and b for both of the characters. Totally blown away.

Feb 19, 2020Absolutely fantastic game. I never played the original (I was only 5 when it released), but have seen videos of it. They have completely overhauled everything. Graphics and sound are astounding, the over-the-shoulder third person view is an improvement over the original as well. Also the Tyrant is one scary piece of.....

Jan 31, 2020Capcom yet again impresses with a game that is made with love and care. You're not safe anywhere you go and thats how it should be. Remakes are hard to pull off and Capcom is prooving how easy it is to do.
Physics, animation, sound, graphics, and story are nothing short of a masterpiece -
Jan 31, 2020a very well made remake. this game is the perfect example on how to remake a whole game from scratch, without destroying the heart and soul of the original.

Jan 23, 2020The game is excellent but the keyboard controls aren't the best. The controls on keyboard can be a bit weird at times so I recommend that you have a controller plugged in for the best experience.

Jan 23, 2020The game is not bad. Great atmosphere, good graphics. But this is not a masterpiece. Passage for Leon is quite short. And when you pass the second time for Claire, then almost all the puzzles and tasks, as in the first passage. This is terribly boring! I'm so sick of it that I threw a second walk in the middle. And I am infuriated with unkillable opponents.

Jan 17, 2020My first game of the resident evil saga, I had never tried the survival horror genre before, and this game was a good start, good puzzles not so far-fetched and not impossible, good story and character development, good graphics and good lighting, I was fascinated with the game and I look forward to the resident evil 3 remake, in the meantime I will give a chance to resident evil 1 hd remaster

Jan 8, 2020Шикарный ремейк, шикарная атмосфера, классные зомби, импакт от стрельбы, интересно исследовать мир, жаль только битвы с боссами выглядят так себе, ну и Тиран просто шикарен)

Apr 6, 2020Two decades after the release of the original trip into the biohazardous universe of Resident Evil, Capcom delivers the best instalment yet. The world you'll be thrown in is a dangerous one, and it doesn't just look the part, but also makes you feel the thrill of being a survivor like never before, as each bullet shot, each item found, and each decision taken, can make the difference between life and death. Simply put, remake or not, this is survival horror at its best.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Apr 4, 2019The remake of Resident Evil 2 succeeded and can’t be criticized for much. Converting the original game into a modern form sets the bar for all future remakes really high and shows how it should be done. [Issue#293]
