If you're a fan of the older games you won't be disappointed and the harder difficulties will in fact fill you with the same desperation as RE2 did back when you played it on PS1. For newcomers to the series it certainly offers some help in the form of the assisted mode if you're not comfortable with the survival horror scene. Personally i played in standard mode and had a great time. Managing inventory, deciding whether to run or shoot, searching for keys, clues, and jack handles. I am extremely pleased with my experience. It's also worth mentioning that it's worth playing on PS4 Pro!… Expand

    Resident Evil 2 is the pinnacle of a franchise that’s on an upswing after a series of ups and downs.

    The game is really good and a major step in the right direction for the franchise, the only issues is that both campaigns are pretty much the same thing and Claire's face could have been better looking. I hope they add some free DLC side stories to add more value to the game, the story and game play are both well done along with the music/sound effects and the enemies are also well done.The game is really good and a major step in the right direction for the franchise, the only issues is that both campaigns are pretty much the same thing and Claire's face could have been better looking.

Lo que en un inicio pudo confundirse con una posible secuela de Deadly Creatures (de parte de THQ para el Nintendo Wii) resultó en el juego que necesitábamos, pero no lo sabíamos.

    Resident Evil 2 pasó a considerarse como un remake para después cambiar la idea a una reimaginación, pero no es ni uno ni otro, ¿por qué? Sigue leyendo:

    Después de 20 años de haber salido el original Resident Evil 2, CAPCOM decidió darle una pequeña sacudida al título y nos trae esta obra maestra en todo su esplendor y de la manera en que debería de jugarse sin limitaciones. Lo primero que notarás es el obvio salto en gráficas. Leon S. Kennedy y Claire Redfield regresan como los protagonistas del incidente de Raccoon City junto con Sherry Birkin y Ada Wong como personajes secundarios.

    La historia es exactamente la misma, sin embargo, hay una cantidad considerable de cambios necesarios en varios aspectos. La acción transcurre en la estación de policía de Raccoon City para después avanzar hacia las mismas instalaciones de Umbrella, pero la manera en que se suscitan los hechos cambia. Es aquí donde entra el término de reimaginación.

    Lo mismo, pero es un juego completamente distinto.

    Gracias a la nueva movilidad, las luces se mantienen apagadas y vagarás por los rumbos en una obscuridad casi total que te hará hacer uso de una linterna que tu personaje usará frecuentemente de manera automática. Claro, habrá momentos en los que puedas revivir la fuente de iluminación, pero no cuentes mucho con ello.

    ¿Es un juego para todos?

    Las generaciones actuales no están acostumbradas al género survival horror, y es culpa del mismo CAPCOM, ya que desde Resident Evil 4 nos malacostumbraron a ver a los enemigos como piñatas por la gran cantidad de municiones y hierbas regenerativas que podíamos encontrar. Resident Evil 2 retoma esa ansiedad de querer administrar bien tu suplemento de batalla y no llegar a la guerra sin los medios suficientes.

    La increíble mejora en las gráficas y la gran cantidad de cuidado en los detalles te hará maravillar, pues debes poner atención hasta en las paredes porque podrías encontrar alguna pista para ese puzzle que creías sin solución. También, el juego cuenta con varios easter eggs y guiños a otros RE, además de menciones a varias sagas a la par icónicas.

    El audio es inmejorable. Es una muy buena recomendación jugar con audífonos puestos, ya que de esta manera sentirás el acecho de los enemigos de una mejor manera, adentrándote en los zapatos de Leon o de Claire. Y a pesar de que ya conozcas la historia, el juego se siente tan nuevo que no importa cuán preparado estés para los eventos, esta emplea de manera correcta, y sin ser predecible, los afamados “jump-scares”.

    Un punto negativo es que el juego está limitado en el aspecto de detección de los enemigos, como los Lickers, que únicamente te detectarán si los tocas, corres o si los atacas. Quizá esto te parezca lógico, pero el juego te permite determinar la velocidad con la que caminas, y lo más lógico sería caminar lento para no ser detectado; esto es inútil, pues, aunque camines a toda velocidad, mientras no pulses el botón de correr, los Lickers no te seguirán. Sin duda fue una oportunidad que no aprovecharon como se debía.

    ¿Vale los 60 dólares?
    Cada título requiere su esfuerzo para producirlo y terminarlo. Resident Evil 2 es un juego que se programó desde cero y cada una de sus características son completamente nuevas. Por esta sola razón puedo decir que sí lo vale, pues no es un simple port. Sin embargo, si eres alguien exigente como yo y requieres un alto replay value, déjame decirte un par de párrafos.

    Para obtener la experiencia completa, tienes que terminar el juego cuatro veces como mínimo. Algunos eventos de este cambiarán si eliges primero a Leon o a Claire, es decir, la historia tendrá ligeros cambios si Claire llega primero a la estación de policía, por lo que Leon ya no interactuará de la misma manera, y viceversa. Esto te tomará un tiempo considerable dependiendo el cómo quieras disfrutarlo, pues además hay muchos skins por desbloquear.

    Resident Evil 2 es, en definitiva, un gran título. Sus excelentes ventas no me dejan mentir y CAPCOM cometería un grave error si no comenzara a desarrollar Resident Evil 3 Remake desde ya (aunado a los múltiples guiños que hay). Tal vez la inclusión de un modo multiplayer lo haría mejor, pero por ahora, disfrutemos de la nostalgia renovada que nos otorga.    … Expand

В сравнении с оригинальной игрой - наполнения, диалогов, да и геймплея здесь всё таки меньше. Не смотря на то, что итоговый продукт выглядит великолепно, не покидает ощущение, что с разработкой и релизом очень торопились, как будто что-то было упущено. Что касается персонажей — Леон просто потрясающий, тот самый Леон, которого мы заслуживаем, Леон здесь — это бьющий ключом энтузиазм, молодость и наивность, хочет спасти всех и каждого, умён и оптимистичен. Лично на мой взгляд, Леон это сердце данной игры, живое и искреннее. И очень жаль, что игра, до неприличного, короткая (проходится за 8 часов в среднем). Далее Клэр — уже лучше, но снова провал, совершенно не похожа на каноничный образ, какой-то совершенно неуместный большой зад и немного колхозная мимика лица. Нет, это не Клэр, но всё таки лучше, чем то отвратительно ужасное воплощение из Revelation 2. Лучшее что было с Клэр, это Resident Evil 2 и Degeneration и кажется на этом Клэр можно смело хоронить, так как попытки Capcom сделать из Клэр жертву в угоду феминистических движений выглядят крайне удручающе. Что касается Ады — как всегда великолепно, да ещё на фоне с местной Клэр, Ада выглядит вдвойне прекрасней. Вообще Ада у Capcom всегда получается совершенно одинаковой внешне (что в случае с её внешностью идет только в плюс). По итогу можно сказать, что игра получилась действительно отличная, не идеальная (идеальных не бывает), но за потрясающе исполненного Леона, готов закрыть глаза на очень короткую продолжительность и в очередной раз провальную Клэр. И думаю успех Resident Evil 2 Remake не оставляет сомнений относительно ремейка третьей части.… Expand

    Magnificient... not only for hardcore fans but also for new comers. The RE Engine is sublime.
    The reasons why I did not give the game a perfect score are two-fold. First, the lack of some cutscenes that were already in the original one. Second, the missed opportunity to create an intertwined scenario with the two protagonists. The choice of scenario A & B is pretty awkward.

    Resident Evil 2 is a complete remake of the classic, and much-loved 1998 original.

    .RE2 retains the things many fans love such as inventory management, puzzles and use of key items, and largely keeps the gloriously silly story of the original game intact. Tank controls and static backdrops are gone, in favour of a more modern third-person over-the-shoulder perspective. This makes combat more intuitive and adds to the immersion.

    Playing in the dark, with headphones or a good sound system helps create some truly tense moments, and the sound design is top notch. Often you can hear enemies before you can see them, sometimes on the floors above you, sometimes right around the corner - ready to strike!
    The audio/visual experience in RE2 is very polished and the game looks stunning, perhaps due to the use of Capcom's proprietary graphics engine, the RE Engine, which was first seen in Resident Evil 7. There were no noticeable drops in frame-rate or other graphical tech issues during my play through; the game ran solidly and smoothly at all times.

    RE2 gives you the option of two different protagonists, Leon or Claire, and depending on who you choose, certain locations and puzzles will be different, but not overtly so. Upon completing the game as one character, you can then play through the second character's campaign. The differences are not huge, but you get to see some more locations and play small sections as sub-characters, which helps flesh out the story.

    Combat is satisfying, with a variety of weapons to brutally dismember zombies and destroy the monsters lurking in the shadows, however it sometimes feels clunky and stilted. I found myself wishing for a button command which allowed me to dodge enemy attacks. Capcom have flirted with the idea of a dodge mechanism in the RE:Revelations spin off titles, to various degrees of success, and it would have made sense to include one in RE2, just to help the combat feel more free-flowing.

    RE2 is not a massive game and each campaign takes between 6-8 hours depending on how thoroughly you explore and which optional puzzles you choose to complete. Capcom have created an experience which is quality over quantity - it's a tight, slick, and well put together game, just don't expect it to be an 80 hour, open world time-sink; it is simply not that type of game, nor does it try to be.

    Overall, RE2 is an utterly fantastic and fun experience, despite some minor concerns. I don't regret paying full retail for it, and I think most Resident Evil fans will eat this up, like a zombie hound chewing on a rotting corpse!    … Expand

    First off, the amount of environment detail, the quality of assets and level design - keeping the scavenging/surviving fun at all times. I did not get bored at any point in the game.

    Play smart; this is not a gunslinger game - conserve ammo, be smart and play with the dismemberment system. Any shot to a zombie will earn you a small window to run past them without triggering a grab.

    I do think the puzzles were a bit too easy; you'd know where to use it immediatly - the trip there, however, might be the challange of it. But it did keep the pacing at a constant rate, which was good.

    The OTS view is excellent. Any other scheme would most likely break the game/immersion. Tank controls would absolutely have ruined it.

    The game engine is fantastically optimized, running heavy environment details and atmospheric effects at a AAA level at all times in densly populated areas - if you disagree, do learn more about game engines, what "costs" in rendering, and cross-platform pitfalls in general. Go for PC version if you're a GFX whore, or PS4 (base/pro) for still awesome gfx, and the good 'ol controller.

    All in all, the most complete horror game to date - excited for more, and please go for RE3 next! Or any new RE game with the same play-style and atmosphere.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Die hallenden Schritte breiten sich in der Ferne aus und nähern sich allmählich. Ich muss schnell sein, denn Tyrant ist hinterher - eine Tötungsmaschine, von der ich mich nur losreißen kann, aber nicht zerstören kann. In den engen Räumen der Polizeistation muss schnell und vorsichtig vorgegangen werden - Leon Kennedy wird bald diesen Albtraum verlassen.

    Als Capcom gerade ein Remake von Resident Evil 2 ankündigte, wartete ich auf die Rückkehr der Horrorklassiker und die Gelegenheit, erneut in die Geheimnisse der Polizeistation Racoon City einzutauchen, von jedem Geräusch in den Abwasserkanälen zu zucken und im Labor zu überleben. Einst war das ursprüngliche Spiel mein erster Horror, es gab mir viele Eindrücke, Tausende tote Nervenzellen und setzte die Messlatte für meine Erwartungen an das Genre. Und als mich der Anfang des Remakes von Resident Evil 2 mit einer Welle von Nostalgie überwältigte, stürzte ich tatsächlich in ein neues Spiel.

    Von der Passage des Originals sind nur Emotionen geblieben, einige Plotpunkte finden ihren Weg in die Erinnerung, aber ansonsten ist es fast eine neue Erfahrung. Das Game hat genug zu bieten, um den Spieler vor dem Bildschirm zu halten. Jeder Fund trägt noch etwas weiter mit sich und aktiviert ein neues Glied in der Kette der Ereignisse um die Charaktere herum.

    Ein Remake von Resident Evil 2 hält ständig in Spannung. Die perfekte Spannung, wo das Blut in den Adern kalt läuft. Es ist nicht nur ein ständiges Gefühl, dass jemand Sie gleich angreift, nein. Das Spiel durchdringt ständig ein Gefühl der Angst, zermalmt die Musik oder äußert die Stille.

    Gleichzeitig gibt es genug Rätseln , von denen einige Neuankömmlinge in die Knie gezwungen werden. Ich hatte zum Beispiel Schwierigkeiten mit der Einbeziehung von Elektrizität auf dem Parkplatz, aber in dieser Zeit gelang es mir, die gesamte Fläche zu reinigen und fast alle Türen zu öffnen. Auf der Karte wird dies äußerst bequem angezeigt - wenn alle Elemente im Raum gesammelt wurden und alle Fragen „geschlossen“ sind, werden sie blau und rot markiert.

    RE2 überraschte mich unangenehm mit der Anzahl der Gegner, die aus dem Nichts kamen. Es gab einen Moment, als ich ins Fotolabor ging, nahm ein Foto mit... beim Ausgehen standen vor mir zwei Zombies, die vorher nicht da waren. Das Fenster ist voll mit Holz, der Flur ist leer. WO KOMMEN DIE HER?!Das nervt. Auch Zombies, die mit 10 Kopfschüsse noch immer aufstehen und zur gleichen Zeit reicht ein Schuss für die anderen. Im Ernst? Solche Momente verderben den Eindruck nicht, aber sie sehen extrem seltsam aus.

    Neuer RE2 ist größer geworden. Wenn das Original an einigen Abenden fertig gespielt werden konnte, beträgt die Dauer einer Kampagne nun etwa 15 Stunden. Irgendwann, nach ein paar Stunden Horror Story lief das Spiel ganz ruhig ab und meine Nervenzellen haben begonnen sich wieder aufzubauen. Nix da! Eine ungewöhnliche Zwischensequenz oder ein neues Hindernis für die Hauptfigur lässt einen fast aufspringen. Du kannst ja nicht vorstellen, wie ich durch die Korridore der Polizeistation gerannt bin, als ich zum ersten Mal den Tyrant traf.

    Wenn du das Original nicht gespielt hast, ist es eine großartige Gelegenheit, den Klassiker kennenzulernen. Höchstwahrscheinlich wirst du dich an das Tempo des Spiels, das Format und einige Aktionen gewöhnen müssen. Zum Beispiel passte ich mein Verhalten nur beim vierten Treffen mit einem Zombie an. Für diejenigen, die sich an Resident Evil erinnern und die Überlieferungen des Spiels gut kennen, ist dies ein Grund, zurück zu gehen um die Erinnerungen zu erfrischen.

    Resident Evil 2 war ein farbenfroher und atmosphärischer Horror. Dich erwarten zwei Kampagnen, etwa 25 Stunden Spielzeit, heftige Schlachten mit Bossen, Rätseln und Geheimnissen der Umbrella Corporation. Und ich gehe meine Nervenzellen wieder aufbauen.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For a game that requires multiple playthroughs of the same story in a largely linear way, I was surprised just how fantastic and addictive this was. Coupled with the difficulty and having to look at videos, i found this game not just something i sat down mindlessly playing but something I really had to concentrate on. I hadn't played the original so had no nostalgia. This was a new experience for me, one which I thoroughly enjoyed.

    Pros:

    I was genuinely scared when travelling down dark corridors - the zombie placements were really good.
    The sound is fantastic. This adds to the tension.
    If you like going for trophies and following guides, the game will definitely scratch an itch.
    Likewise the puzzles can be a real challenge for anyone looking to solve things independently.
    The A - B storylines work perfectly together.
    Shooting the zombies is really satisfying.

    Cons:

    Playing for extended periods of time got exhausting, especially when going for the speedruns.
    If you are looking to mow down waves of zombies you will be disappointed because more often than not you will run past them not killing them.
    The boss battles can be extremely challenging. On boss took me over an hour, 20-30 attempts to defeat.
    Mr X seems to turn up out of the blue at the most annoying points which I understand is to add to the challenge but created moments of extreme rage.

    Whilst I got extremely frustrated in places, I have to give this game a 9. It loses a point because it won't be a game that I will sink 1000s of hours into and if I think about the amount of content, there isn't a huge amount. What there is however, is an extremely tightly woven and polished game which plays fantastically well.    … Expand

    Great, great game, contender for game of the year, studios take notice, this is how you do a remake, absolutely amazing game, now the flaws, game is way to short, if you know what you are doing you can beat the game in as little as a few hours, ouch, and the alternate story you can play as Claire is exactly the same for the first half of the game, and only slightly different for the secondGreat, great game, contender for game of the year, studios take notice, this is how you do a remake, absolutely amazing game, now the flaws, game is way to short, if you know what you are doing you can beat the game in as little as a few hours, ouch, and the alternate story you can play as Claire is exactly the same for the first half of the game, and only slightly different for the second half, you can also play the part B, witch is from the other characters point of view and story, and sadly it's also incredibly similar to part A, that's why I knocked the game down to an 8/10, if the game's story was different for each character and part, this game would be a solid 10/10, but as it stands it's a solid 8.… Expand

    More than 20 years after the original game, considered as one of the greatest horror games of all time, Capcom at last decided to listen to fans and made the remake of RE2 fans dreamed of, and not only that, they exceeded their expectations !

However, compared to the (also excellent) remake of RE1, for this remake Capcom chose the RE4 over the shoulder camera. It works great, as players can now relive the horror in full 3D. While staying true the original, improves the game in many ways, making it the best horror game ever (and I have played many many horror games ! Thank you so much Capcom !

    The atmosphere of horror is overwhelming and proves that in 2019 there is a place for a Resident-like story in which the modern visuals heighten and not lessen the fear. It’s the best Resident Evil ever. [03/2019, p.40]

    Resident Evil 2 is a wonderful recreation of a believed original that, not only recaptures the glory of that game, but also improves upon it from a visual and gameplay standpoint. All in all, don’t miss out on this one.
