    They should have used one more year on this remake. Needs more meat on the bone.

    The game is not bad, but they took the best cut scene from the original RE3 and puzzle this game is very easy. the graphics of the game is incredible and the characters too, but the RE2 remake lacked the affection

    Like other people say, only buy this game on sale. I did it, I waited a lot of time and now I bought it for a really cheap price and I can say it is short, but taking into consideration price and quality I would give it a solid 7/10.

    It just can't compete with the RE2 Remake as it feels like less of a complete experience overall. It's so strange they cut the clock tower portion of the game considering they had the police station already built from RE2 Remake. Kind of feels lazy. It's fun to play - no doubt! As it's more action focused and includes a dodge, but pick it up on a heavy sale.

    I'm giving this game a 5 because it's only 5 hours long. And believe me I searched every corner and turned every red room to blue.

    - Characters are excellent. Really enjoyed!
    - BOWs are excellent. Hunter Gamma and Beta look great!

    Negative elements:

    - Absence of backtracking! Absurd. It's the biggest feature of the franchise's success! Respect the tradition!
    - Cutting of scenarios for transferring chapters. I think it's a mistake! Carlos was to walk to the Clock Tower to find Jill. It would be fantastic.
    - New Raccoon City locations could be explored, such as The Mall, Library, Stadium etc. It would be wonderful if you could get inside the Clock Tower, under some justification.
    - Absence of puzzles. And what are there are stupid, like the puzzle of precious stones. The only interesting puzzle was the connection of the subway energy.
    - Absence of classic scenarios that could be reformulated and revisited (Raccoon Press, Clock Tower, City Hall, Gas Station etc.)
    - Brad's death was inappropriate.
    - Crates scattered around the scenario. I think this level design option is very silly. It is inconsistent, it is not immersive and it is not serious. It has an arcade and game appeal from the past decade. You should put bags and backpacks to be opened. The trunk of police and civilian cars could be exploited instead of these crates.
    - Lack of explanation about the RPD events. Where's David Ford?
    - Very small and uninspired city scenery. It was simplified and very poor. A loss of opportunity!
    - Repetitive and reused zombies. Laziness?
    - Excess and repetition of suitcases and locks. Couldn't there be other models?
    - The physics of the game suffered a clear setback. JIll / Carlos movements less than Leon / Claire. The gameplay is not as tasty as the RE2r. The REsistance game has a more responsive control mechanic than the RE3r.
    - There are no zombie mutilations. Shots impact is much less than RE2r.
    - Carlos' dodge, with his super punch, is stupid and very tacky. I was scared if he would also have a spinning kick, a suplex blow or punch a rock.
    - Nemesis became tacky and gaudy. Nemesis spiderman? Maybe if he was a little faster than Mr. X, but a lot more deadly, it would make the character more scary. It was very exaggerated. It got more boring than scary like Mr. X.
    - I think the badass personality of the main characters is something so old-fashioned and silly. I think you need to get out of that silly formula. I prefer humanized characters with more dramatic and real phrases.

    - The gameplay is very short. If the Clock Tower had been explored inland, if the Gas Station had been visited and if the city had been wider and more exploitable, like some boutiques, the game could have lasted much longer. Also, I believe that the Raccoon Subway scenario could be explored, as in RE Outbreak2, to prolong the hours of play. The expansion of the Hospital and the addition of NEST 2 was great. But the classic scenarios could not have been missed.

    I missed the City Hall. Will we have a new game in Raccoon City, where the building will be explored and there will we know the fate of Michael Warren? I read it on the internet from a fan, and it sounded very appropriate.

    Learn CAPCOM! Do not abandon backtracking and exploration. Do not abandon puzzles. The game appears to have been produced in a hurry and with a lack of patience. Don't repeat that mistake, please, in the next remake.

    For me, Remake or reimagination (it doesn't matter) needs to keep the original and classic elements of the game. There can be no losses, only additions, as occurred with NEST 2, the Hospital and the Sewer. RE1r is masterpiece because this.

    Resident Evil 3 has moments that shine. The main flaws of the game are its length and replayability factor. Definitely a step down from the Resident Evil 2 remake. It would be worth purchasing on sale, unless capcom decides to add dlc content to beef up the length.

    Good gameplay and filled with intensity but it's really short and a lot of original content was cut. in conclusion, great game but not for 60$, maybe 40$ or 35$ sounds fair.

    The game is short, JUST LIKE THE CLASSIC. At the middle until the end the game turned into a Resident Evil 6 in my opinion, I really didn't like the Nemesis transformations. No mercenaries mode, that's bad, the original one had it.

    Not bad but an opportunity has been missed to increase the replayability. Having different choices in the original was analogous to RE2's scenario A & B, that is missing in the RE 3 remake.

RE3remake however, was a disappointment. I did not feel like the game is shorter than RE2remake as everyone said (it has only 1 character but the time of 1 playthrough is not much different). The main problem is that the atmosphere of suvival horror is gone !. Jill and Carlos felt like they are storming the place rather than find a way to survive. Especially, on Carlos campaign, zombie horde is just too many and felt tiresome to kill. Devs here had misunderstanding the charm of RE. The excitement did not came for shooting zombies, but the atmosphere and the shortage of ammo. 2 zombiles with only have 5 ammo handgun left are much more horror than 5-6 zombiles with your 100 ammo assault rifle. Too many ammo has giving in standard, but the game is still more difficult than RE2 in enemy placements and nasty attack (1hit kill) from some enemies.

    Moreover, Nemesis is even more destroying atmosphere. When it comes, it breaks immesion of horror survival entirely. Because we knew it was scripted. It is becoming annoying, rather than fear like Mr.X. Because for Mr.X, you don't know where he is, when he will appear, and everytime he comes, you will hear foot step first, so you get pressure to do things quickly. When Nemesis come, the game become like super soilder vs monster instead, full mode action game. Cutscenes with Nemesis also felt very unrealistic. In reality, Jill should have died too many times or at least got some broken ribs.

    Anyway, the game is still fun in some sections I have to give them that. I might give 7/10 if it is not named RE. Jill is pretty much felt like Lara Croft to me. Story is not as good as RE2remake either. It is sadly a disgrace in remake series.

    The game is empty, does not rescue the essence of its predecessor and also leaves a lot of things out of the original, also does not innovate leaving the game without identity, the horror and suspense are not there, everything looks like a movie, remembering resident evil 6. The bright spot is Carlos and Jill with more personality, and the graphics and reused gameplay from their antecessor.

    Thinking about how they could've expanded the game and added replayability to it by the puzzles and explorations in the memorable areas of RC drives me crazy (Let alone the mercenaries mode and the dynamic choices).
    I finished the game in under 5 hours and It didn't feel like a whole game, it felt like a DLC.
    And for Nemesis... I wanted Nemesis to hunt me down when I expected him the least while exploring the iconic areas of RC.
    90% of the encounters with Nemesis were turned into scripted action boss fights and cut scenes that weren't even close to how scary and stressful the original RE3 encounters were.
    Also one thing that made me upset from the beginning was that the devs used the same zombies from RE2R, as a hardcore RE fan who has played RE2R many times, I felt like the zombies were normalized and weren't even scary anymore, I expected to see at least one redesigned zombie with a different style, but I didn't.
    I wish CAPCOM had spent their time and energy on improving and expanding the game rather than rushing the remake and releasing an online co-op game that no one asked for.

    Resident Evil 3 doesn't deserve a 0/10 like some people are giving it. That being said this game was very disappointing. This game felt like a DLC to Resident Evil 2 rather than a full 60 dollar release.

My chief complaint is the content in the game or lack thereof. 60 dollars for a 5 hour game with zero replay ability is unacceptable. Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil 2 remake set the series back in the right direction. They slowed down the gameplay and brought back the puzzle solving and inventory management without tank controls and smoother more satisfying action. Resident Evil 3 has pretty much no puzzles. The downtown section of the game is the closest the game comes to replicating Resident Evil 2. After that the entire game is pretty much on rails. Nemesis only appears for scripted linear chase sections or boss battles. I think we had an expectation that Nemesis would loom around as we tried to solve puzzles like Mr X. Instead he shows up at predictable times and doesn't bring much tension. I am fine with the character redesigns Jill is fine as **** Carlos looks kind of silly with his curly ass hair but its fine. The dialogue is cheesy but I like it. They try to inject more action and enemies into the game which doesn't work too well with the gun play. It worked better in Resident Evil 2 with less enemies but with more enemies to fight it is just a chore. They cut out significant chunks of the game too which is baffling to me. This game gives me PTSD flashbacks of Resident Evil 6 which cut out everything but linear action gayness. Pick this up for like 20 dollars or just play RE2 again. Expand

    DISCLAIMER: I went into RE3R blind not having played the original, so I’m not biased towards the original.

    TL;DR: It was fun while it lasted, so 4 hours basically. I say wait for the price to come down to about €20 to €30 and then go for it. It’s still worth a shot but not as good as the other remake, RE2. 6.5/10 I’ll cut this review in 3 parts: 1. Gameplay 2. Story 3.

    I’ll cut this review in 3 parts:
    1. Gameplay
    2. Story
    3. Replayability

    Gameplay:
    The gameplay in RE3R is very similar to RE2R, mainly because of the new engine they use. It’s very fluid and feels good to use, no real negatives on this. The guns feel good and are realistic. My main problem is how they handled it, it’s a lot more action packed then survival horror, which is a shame (please don’t let this end up like RE6). What’s mainly new here is the dodge mechanic. If you time your dodge correctly you’ll roll and mitigate all incoming attacks/damage. I think this kind of goes against what Resident Evil is supposed to be, survival horror. With a move like this you basically don’t have to be afraid of anything, plus it’s very cluncky and doesn’t always work (I know you can buy the STARS book for it to be easier but that doesn’t count). The graphics look amazing and the voice acting is really good but sometimes the lip syncing was completely off. Also they downgraded the gore from RE2R so that’s a big no no. You should never censor your games Capcom.

    Story:
    For people who have played the original, you would know the story is different and they did cut out some content and the choice system (which is complete bs), but I didn’t play the original. I thought the story was good, but a little short, my first time playing through took me 4 hours, which compared to my RE2R first playthrough is 4 hours less. And this is my biggest problem with this game, for the current price tag of €60, it’s wayyy too short. A real bummer. I guess the price does factor in RE Resistance, whatever that abomination is. Also, I felt like the game was very linear, you don’t really come back to previous area’s or go off the beaten path, it’s pretty straightforward, this hurts the replayability (which we’ll go over later). Finally, the boss fights. They weren’t bad, but they weren’t spectacular either. The main enemy in the game is Nemesis, and by all the hype I heard about him I thought I was gonna **** my pants while fighting him. Turns out, not so much. He’s scary, yes, but I’m dissapointed they didn’t use him more. Besides the first downtown area he doesn’t roam around and kill you for the rest of the game. You see him 4 more times. 2 of these boss fights in his dog like stage are pretty much the same (the ones where he circles around you, and then you have to shoot him off of something). Maybe they could’ve added a little bit more variety. So yeah I was a bit dissapointed by how they handled Nemesis, but I guess I got hyped up too much. All in all, solid with a little bit too much action and too short, best way too describe this is short but sweet.

    Replayability:
    Here’s my biggest problem, RE games are designed to make you play multiple times, so you can unlock more stuff or experience the story in a different way, this is not the case here. Because the game is so linear and no S+ ranks (as of now correct me if I’m wrong) being available. There’s little reason for you to go through the story again, because all those cool extra’s you unlocked for achieving these high ranks are now in a shop. A **** shop. Who thought this was a good idea?? Now when someone has the infinite rocket launcher they’ll just say: ‘Oh, I just bought it... with points..’ Now you might argue you get these points by playing the game multiple times but good **** luck getting the infinite rocket launcher by only playing the game over and over again normally. The easiest way to get it is to ‘farm’ the kill challenges on a save and then reloading that save, rinse and repeat. Farming?? In a RE game??? How low have we gone Capcom? The fun in getting these infinite weapons was playing the game on hardcore and getting high ranks, it was not easy with simple challenge farming! You had to really know the game and have some skill! That fun is now gone.

    My final verdict is a 6.5/10
    It was fun while it lasted, so 4 hours basically. I say wait for the price to come down to about €20 to €30 and then go for it. It’s still worth a shot but not as good as the other remake, RE2.

    The game is 2 times shorter than re2. Plus there is too much action. I cannot even call this game a horror. Mr X was better than Nemesis because Nemesis could jump and run, which made him too imbalanced.
    From technical point of view this game is even better than re2. Buy it, but it is better to wait for discount. Re2 still remains the best resident evil game.

    This was one of the main games I was looking forward to this year. Unfortunately, Capcom doesn't care about the actual fans of this franchise. They cut content to push the game out the door faster and censored several aspects to please people that don't have any intention of playing it. Could have been a much better game.

    Hot damn, after the awesome ride that was RE2 Remake, this game is a disappointment in almost every way. It's not very surprising to me considering this game came out only a year after RE2R. These guys actually had the balls to bundle a Multiplayer RE game that no one asked for (complete with loot boxes and purchasable currency) alongside a botched version of one of the greatest survival horror games ever made. That is just criminal and is an insult to the people who grew up with this game. As if Resistance is supposed to justify the $60 price tag for the lack of content that's in Resident Evil 3 (you can beat the game in 4-5 hours for god sake). Let me just go down the list of just how much is missing from RE3 and it's quite shocking.

    - No Mercenaries

    - No explorable Clock Tower (you only see it during a fight against Nemesis)

    - No City Park

    -No scene where Brad gets mutilated by Nemesis (in fact you don't visit the R.P.D. as all as Jill)

    - No Gas Station segment (you only see it for like 10 seconds)

    - No Pharmacy (when you meet Nicolai for the first time)

    - No Cemetery

    - Nemesis missing one of his transformations

    - Nemesis only appearing during scripted moments instead of randomly like in the original, and he goes away once you reach a specific area, which means that when he does appear it's just as terrifying as it should be

    - Missing weapons like the Mine Launcher, 4 shot Rocket Launcher, the M37 Lever Action Rifle, and the Gatling Gun. You can customize the pistol and shotgun with attachments to give them better performance but they don't turn into new guns from getting parts by knocking out Nemesis like in the original. In fact you don't get any special items like the First Aid Box.

    - No critical choice picking (scripted moments where you have to make a quick decision that can alter cutscenes and the ending which increases replay value)

    - Only ONE ending (Jill and Carlos escaping on the helicopter)

    - No spiders, crows, bloodsucking worms

    - No Grave Digger boss fight

    - Lack of interesting puzzles

    - No Nicolai Helicopter fight

    - Lack of RNG (enemies and items that appear in areas in the original game differ between playthroughs, but in the remake, everything now is scripted, and it's the same enemies and items in the same placements every time, which hurts replay value)

    - Also this might be a nitpick to some but I just hate the sound design of the weapons. Listen to the sound effects in the original, they're amazing even by today's standards, but now in the remake every gun sound like airsoft guns

    There might be other issues that I missed so if I did I apologize in advance.

    There are some good things though

    + Carlos has a bigger role this time around which is great
    + Nemesis looks and sounds incredible
    + Final boss fight was awesome
    + It looks pretty

    But, that's all I can really say about it. Seriously, I don't understand what they were thinking when they released this. All they had to do was take the original PS1 game that we all know and love, and give it a modern look, while also expanding on certain elements like in RE2R. And after making constant comparisons between this and the original, this just feels like a lazy cash crab, probably why they released it so early in this state so now Capcom is probably gonna fix it with DLC like what Square did with Final Fantasy 15 and Kingdom Hearts 3.
    Why play this for $60 when you can just grab your dusty PS3 and download the original game for 5 bucks? The remake is worth $20 at best. I was really gitty for the first 1-2 hours, but by the end I felt quite frustrated. This is my 2nd favorite RE game in the franchise, and this is how they pay homage to the fans? What the actual **** Capcom.

    Even though it is a very successful game, you will feel a little disappointed. Compared to the remake of the second game, this one often loses its pace and it is impossible to get rid of the impression that there could and should have been more to this game. [Issue#303]

    All we can say is that six hours of Resident Evil 3 is just enough - and we're aware that's both compliment and curse. [Issue#346, p.88]

    After a stellar remake of an arguably the best Resident Evil game ever made, Capcom has let down our expectations by giving us a more scripted, more linear survival horror action game that will probably be forgotten like so many sequels that have gone the path of less resistance when it comes to game design. RE3 make feels more like a DLC than a full-blown game.
