    Finished the whole game in 2.5 hours.
    Don't get me wrong, I paid 60$ for this $hit and only got 2.5 hours of gameplay?
    That's bull$hit. I've never been so disappointed in my entire life.
    Better call that DLC for RE2, god damn it.

    Only 60% of the original project made the cut. No RPD/ Clock tower segments. Not to mention that almost the whole city was in the demo. Puzzles? Forget that! Keys?

Seriously, most of them you just pick up and use literally 2 rooms later making the whole effort completely redundant. And who likes backtracking anyway?! Make it a completely linear game with almost 0 replay value! The damn thing is 5 hours long! If we didn't tolerate that with The Order 1886, why does Capcom get a pass in this one?

    Botched hardcore difficulty with constant auto-saves and no ink-ribbon required, making everything matter a bit less since you have plenty of ammo to mow down every zombie you see... Seriously, just point and shoot! Don't worry about your ammo, the scripted boss fights showers you with it as if you just chainsaw'd a random demon, DOOM style!

    Toned down gore, I streamed the whole playthrough and didn't manage to dismember a single zombie. Nemesis encounters are just as, if not more scripted than the original game, making him more of a nuisance rather than a constant, real threat. Remember when people went **** crazy when news came of him being able to invade safe-rooms? haha, what a joke! He can't even enter a few key-areas!!!

    On a technical level, they've nailed it, the RE engine is at its peak and ran like butter the whole playthrough without a single frame drop.
    Capcom just pocketed real easy money from us all and delivered this half-baked game that was rushed in a year. If they focused on just making the damn game and didn't bother to make that resistance crap and maybe, just maybe we would've gotten a better, more polished game.

    Disappointing. Could've been so, so much better.    … Expand

If they gave it another year of development I'm sure the result will be fascinating. Capcom saw the success of RE2 remake and made this very fast for the sake of sales without giving a damn about the fans and this particular part of story. I'm just saying RE3 DESERVED BETTER!!!!!

    The puzzles are barely there & too easy to solve. Nemesis isn't scary at all I mean it! you won't ever feel the rush, the Adrenaline and the Nemesis horror like the original.

    Too many places are missing from the original, the only nostalgic thing in this game is the save room music I liked that.

    It's solid game and I would recommend it if it's not part of franchise but I'm not recommending it because it's a remake it has to be like the original with improvements not cutting stuff from original. God our only chance to play a game like RE3 1999 has gone forever! Thank you Capcom!    … Expand

    Resident Evil 3 was a painfully short but very fun game that stepped away enough from the original to feel like a fresh experience. Pick it up on sale though because the content of the game isn't worth $60. I was able to beat it 3 hours and 30 minutes.

    Mercernaries game mode is also removed, instead we got a crappy multiplayer game called Resistance nobody ever asked for. All that just to justify the $60 and even $90 price tag in some countries.
    The game feels like RE5-6 in terms of mechanics and gameplay and that's exactly everything that is wrong with this remake, if we can call it that.
    Nemesis is a joke, it's like a MR.X with an awful redesign. He's heavily scripted and his behaviour doesn't make any sense. Not to mention that some of his moves are a joke.
    The gore has been reduced for no reason, the OST is just terrible and like in RE2 Remake, they didn't tried their best at all. But at least in RE2 we had the option to switch to the original OST while in RE3 that option doesn't exist and you're forced to play with the awful remake version of the songs.
    And don't even get me started on the final battle which is pure unfiltered garbage straight out of an anime or the typical Platinum games that i hate.

    Hard to believe how they butchered this remake after the masterpiece that they've done with Reside nt Evil 2 remake.
    Refund made, i'm not even bothering with Capcom and future Resident Evil titles anymore, this is just pathetic.

    This is what happens when you leave the remake in charge of an incompetent team that didn't even play the original game.    … Expand

Самое обидное то что разрабы делали игру параллельно с 2 частью,у них ещё был год после выхода 2 ремейка что бы добавить все локации из оригинала и отшлифовать их,но они решили пилить мультиплеер и снова сделали уклон в сторону ньюфагов и засрали одну из лучших частей. Но мы все знаем что япошки не умеют в мультиплеер,в итоге куча времени потратили в пустую,это позор,учитывая что у них уже был скелет игры в виде ремейка 2 части,и не нужно было с нуля что-то пилить,но они тупо обленились,и даже ракун сити обрезали в 2 раза,сделали тупо упор в экшон со спец эффектами как ларка. Короче фанаты РЕ4 будут рады,олды нет. Просить фул прайс за трех часовый огрызок,это нужно иметь смелость и наглость.

    Embora o RE2 tenha fugido um pouco da pegada do clássico, haviam pontos que tu conseguia ligar ao original, mas nesse 3 parece que o contexto da situação foi a um patamar de nível superior de viajado... até uns 30% de jogo, tu consegue sentir um RE3, mas dali em diante, virou bagunça.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm just so disappointed. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis is one of my all time favorite games and this remake just doesn't do it justice. The gameplay in general terms is boring and tedious, 90% of the classical scenarios that we loved in the original Resident Evil 3 were completely thrown into the trash and during the game you feel like nothing exciting happens at all because of this, we don't even see Brad Vickers die. Nemesis' design is bad, the 1999 is scarier than this one and that's unforgivable and the music is conspicuous by its absence, the only good thing about it is the recycled safe room's theme. Overall, a bad, rushed game that could have been a masterpiece, and I'm not even counting the fact that they're selling a 5 hours mediocre experience for 60 bucks. As always, thank you, Capcom, I guess 2020 is not a good year for remakes.… Expand

The Original was also very action focused, but back then "action" meant something a little bit diffrent. This game is made with MODERN standards in mind, and while some things were a little bit out of the place, it's perfectly balanced in that regard (in my opinion).

    A lot of things were cut out in favor of new stuff, which isn't that bad BUT I have to admit, some parts will be greatly missed (tho Capcom at the very least gave a few subtle nods to the OG fans).

    The biggest issue with RE3R seems to be the game time. If you are some kind of Speedy Gonzales then yes, it can take you only 4 hours to finish the game on your first playthrough, but it was clearly made with the intent to replay it as many time as possible, something that is not very common in games these days. There is a shop for unlockables (I hope they will add more things to it tho) and 2 unlockable difficulties that not only make enemies more tough but also change item placement. For me that way over mere 4 hours. Not to mention, the Original wasn't super long too, but I guess oldies that were kids when the OG was released are too blinded by nostalgia to see that.    … Expand

    While last year’s Resident Evil 2 took the story and settings of the original game and expanded them into a finely tuned masterpiece, Resident Evil 3 feels like it took a much different approach. The story, and the path it takes from beginning to end, has seen some substantial changes compared to the original to the point where it’s sometimes difficult to see any semblance of its source material under this new coat of polygons and paint. That having been said, I did enjoy my time with Resident Evil 3 and I think that fans of the series, or fans of its predecessor, will enjoy it. However, one group I feel like it might struggle to impress are the fans of the original Resident Evil 3: Nemesis which is quite unfortunate after how well last year’s Resident Evil 2 was received.

    Not only it doesn’t surpass RE2, it fails to even hit the same mark. In RE2, every act had you explore a rather large environment, search for clues and solve puzzles. In RE3, you just run down a corridor, blasting zombies and dodging scripted Nemesis attacks. [Issue#245, p.46]

    Unlike the remake of Resident Evil 2, this is a simple, straightforward blockbuster, short, colorful, and mindless. As for Resident Evil: Resistance, you will probably quit it after spending half an hour in this boring L4D clone.
