    A ton of fun, builds on what 2 did but this is way more intense. A lot of replay value and resident evil resistance is just a bonus to mess around with if you get bored. Overall a great game with good pacing and fun scares!

Первая игра этой серии, с которой я познакомился, была Resident Evil 4, когда она вышла на PC. Пройдя её, я под впечатлением, побежал на рынок и попросил ещё, что нибудь из этой серии. Мне продали акелавский Resident Evil 3. Установив его и включив, я едва сдержал рвотный позыв. Игра выглядела и игралась просто омерзительно. Хорошо продавец деньги вернул. Тогда я не знал, что так выглядели все консольные, первая и вторая, игры серии, что это, типа, классика.
    Так, что буду судить об игре, как человек видящий её впервые.
    Ну, что можно сказать, игра сделана, судя по всему, на том же движке, что и Resident Evil 2 Remake. Так, что визуальных различий между ними минимум. Не отличаются они и геймплейно, та же баллистика, тот же вещмешок и всё, всё, всё.
    Это комплимент игре, если что!
    Мне не очень, ё моё, вообще не понравился главный, ё моё, единственный босс игры. Бои с ним скучны. Какая, никакая тактика, появляется только в финальной битве.
    К тому же в игре, практически не разъясняется, кто такой, такая, короче, такое этот Немезис. И главное, почему он гоняется именно за нашей бабой. А также, почему он не может её никак убить, если выносит на раз, не хилых таких, статистов. В макулатуре, можно кой чего найти, но ничего конкретного.
    Теперь о вонючем. Ну куда ж мы, без плохих русских. "Русских" антагонистов, американцы видят исключительно жадными, подлыми, лживыми, самолюбивыми идиотами. Короче такими, какими являются сами в реальной жизни. Ведь сама суть США, зиждется на деньгах. Все последние войны, америкосы начинали из-за бабла, нарушая договоры, обманывая всех пробирками, называя себя исключительными! У меня есть деньги - значит я прав! Это их девиз. Я понимаю, что игру делали японцы, но для американского рынка и я думаю, янки их сильно "консультировали".
    Если кто сомневается в подмене понятий, обратите внимание на последнюю Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019 года.
    Теперь о смешном. Не знаю почему, но в русской версии, пистолет Magnum .44 AE, упорно называют револьвером. Пистолет и револьвер, это совершенно разное оружие, общее у них только понятие ствол.
    А в принципе, если откинуть эту шелуху, получилась неплохая игра. Советую всем, особенно тем, кто не играл в оригинал, как я. Игра не длинная (прошел за 7 часов с небольшим), не успевает надоесть.    … Expand

    This was tough to judge, but ultimately I feel that Resident Evil 3 is simply the sum of its parts and that some of those parts fall short as it is. This is a great game to buy on sale and play over a weekend (or possibly one day) and probably never feel the urge to return to it.

    I don't usually like to bring up pricepoints in reviews, but for some reason it's unavoidable in this game. Maybe it's the stunning visuals, sometimes marred by obvious and awful flaws. Maybe it's the fantastic area designs which impress at first but are systematically abandoned by the game before they can truly charm. Or maybe it's the misuse of Nemesis, who from the beginning is so nerfed that I literally never once worried about him.

    This could have been something special, if not on par with last year's phenomenal Resident Evil 2. Even as a brief, spin-off adventure, it could have succeeded if it committed more to its ideas. But as it is it seems they may have decided to play it safe at the last minute. The game decidedly feels not just the usual "unfinished" or "unpolished" but downright amateurish and unprofessional. It would not surprise me to learn that this game was made by a junior team. I don't hate it, but I'm never ordering this dish again.    … Expand

    Huge disappointment. More than half scenarios cut, lame boss battles, lame enemies and a very short game. Nemesis is a pushover that never really got me any feeling of danger. The best part of the game is the the one that was in the demo.

While this game is notIntro: Resident Evil 3 (Remake) is for some fans was a very underwhelming experience. There are instances of cut content and the gameplay being only around 6 to 7 hours and scenes from the original being cutaway that was in the original. However, I do not think this game is even as close to bad game or zero out of 10 like some people are making this game look to be. While this game is not as amazing as RE2 remake, this game is one of my personal favorite RE titles along with RE 1 Remastered and RE2 remake because it's a very fun experience, especially for new players.

    The Good: Despite what some fans will say, this game is very fun. The combat in this game is very solid and does utilize the dodge mechanic fairly well. At first, it's a bit difficult, but once you start getting further into the game, it becomes a lot easier to use later on when dealing with enemies. Weapons and their usage are fairly similar to the RE2 remake, but items like knives are not breakable and grenades and flashbangs can not be used to get out of a zombie's grasp, making it more essential to try and not get grabbed and lose health. This game is also a lot more action-based then RE2 remake. With this game having more ammo and healing items to help aid you in highly dangerous areas in the game. Speaking of which, the areas in this game a beautiful. Using the RE Engine, this game looks incredible and made me excited to play through. Also, the monsters in this game are annoying to deal with, but in a good way. I felt very threatened while playing certain areas of the game such as the lab and hospital when fighting enemies such as the hunter betas and pale heads and they made me think twice before going out and exploring the game.

    The Meh: So in this game, one of the main enemies you will encounter is Nemesis, a high intelligent tyrant that can use weapons and even transformed during the story. He is also able to do some very powerful and unique moves to try and keep the player on their guard like in an actual fight. Now while I still think he is cool in the game, he also has a very weird and unneeded weakness in his design. If you have a hand grenade on you, you can easily take him down and be able to escape to a safe area. This is not exactly great mainly because compared to RE2's Mr.X, Nemisis falls way too quickly. Also, some areas in the game where batteries and explosive drums are around can keep Nemesis off your tail which can be a bit of a bummer sometimes. However, if the player doesn't have a grenade, good luck trying to escape because other weapons can sometimes not be very useful in dealing with his movements. Another thing I would like to bring up is the missing areas in the game. While the game does have some very nice looking locations, some were not included like the park or clock tower areas. Now I looked back into these areas and honestly, the park was not that interesting and looked kind of boring with how it was set up and was probably not a great idea for this game. The clock tower, however, I do believe should have been kept in to make the game feel scarier with the giant spiders and add in the missing puzzles. The zombies here are not as gory and detailed as in RE2 which kind of sucks, but they can still be minor inconveniences for the player.

    The bad:
    There are two main issues I have with this game, the length and the cutscenes. When playing this game, I felt the cutscenes took up way too much time in the game. There were so many moments in the game that I felt could have been used to create new areas to explore or be more interactive using quick time events to let the player do something during their run times. Also, the length of the game is short for modern games. I was able to get through this game in around 6 hours and that is too short for a game in this day and age and doesn't justify 60 dollars, maybe around $30 to $40. This was the perfect time to expand on the game and maybe even add new areas, but Capcom blew it a bit which sucks. Speaking of areas, seeing what the clock tower was in the original game and looking at RE3 remake, I felt that they should have included that area in this game.

    Overall: Despite what some people may say, this game is very fun and not even close to bad. There are some issues like the length and cutscene runtimes, but overall is a fun entry in the series. The game does a great job of making Raccon City look a lot more different than in RE2 and does have many great moments of the gameplay. However, with issues such as the game's length being short and Nemesis not being a huge threat on lower difficulties, it does water down the game a bit and leaves more to be desired. It's not something I would recommend at full price, but around 40 to 30 dollars, this game is a great addition to play whenever you have some spare time    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’ve played RE as they came out. So I’ve seen the series evolve. I loved the re2remake but this game was a terrible disappointment. The game ,for one, cut mercenaries mode, clock tower, grave digger, park, waste facility, live decisions, puzzles are completely gone except for 2 pathetic quick puzzles, no crows, no spiders (still), no epilogue files. Cut content everywhere.

    No backtracking gets me a lot though. It’s way too linear to have any real replay value. Walk forward, cutscene, kill enemies, cutscene, set piece boss fight, cutscene. Near zero backtracking and it just becomes super boring. Nemesis is regulated to boring set piece boss fights and is only a bipedal enemy chasing you for 20 minutes then completely ceases to be a factor whatsoever. The disrespect they did to Nemesis is just awful. It near ruins the game. If you’re a old school RE fan I don’t think you’ll like this game at all. Post RE4, maybe.

    The good things is the characters were portrayed great, graphics is still outstanding, gameplay still is tight, hospital segment is actually great until it ends with a game time pad segment.

    What I hate is backtracking is near nonexistent, nemesis design and gameplay and utility is worse as it gets, camera gets clunky as hell during boss fights for some reason, Carlos goes to RPD instead of Jill, brads death isn’t shown at all, the game cuts to the train (traincar) part way way WAY to quickly essentially skipping a third of the game. The city was actually smaller than the original. One of the huge set pieces of RE3 is reduced to a single street. Basically what you see in the demo is what you get with the city. That’s it. This game was grossly rushed and pushed at the same target audience as RE6. I don’t know WHAT capcom was thinking. RE2r was a mixture of new and old while preserving the hallmarks of resident evil. The hallmarks are 1. Resource management 2. Puzzles 3. Branching paths that allow backtracking and exploration (Files and side story elements) in a highly detailed environment to get familiar with 4. Tough but fun combat with dangerous enemies 5. 2 playable characters. If these elements are fallowed it’s pretty much destined to be a at least a enjoyable RE game.

    Plainly put, RE3r isn’t the worse RE game I’ve played but it’s easily in the bottom 1/3rd. Its also major disappointment that betrays it’s source material and the RE hallmarks I mentioned. I give it a 6.1/10 which is not a good score. It’s a near fail.    … Expand

    Basically Capcom is just making a cash grab with this release banking on people's nostalgia and people coming off Resident Evil 2 Remake. All you had to do was mimick the original, maybe update the dialogue and puzzles. Do what you did for RE2 and we would have had another winner but you gave us this monstrosity instead. For what it's worth, it's still an enjoyable short ride and Carlos was a standout character but really, they should have never released Resident Evil: Resistance, something that nobody wanted or ever asked for and should have spent those resources in creating a better and longer gameplay experience.

    Rotting corpses, Mutated creatures, and large monsters chasing you is mainly what a resident evil game entails. This new installment has all these things but still falls short of being a great game, atg least on par with the rest of the series.

    This game takes the same basic plot as the original game and tries to update to a more modern way of characterization in characters and plot instances, but I feel that the changes they made in the minor details really throws off the plot and how the player feels about them. Characters die in diffrent ways that somewhat makes the Nemesis of the game seem not as menacing because it shows him as incompetent and thus being not scary. Other things are character differences with the main cast. Jill Valentine comes of as rude and bratty in this one while in previous entries she is more wary then outright spiteful in her dialogue. Calos is a pretty good new interpretation of the character that feels like the original even though there is new attributes to his character. All the other characters didn’t really have a personality in the original so automatically they are a step up as you can now kinda get a sense of who they are with the little screen time they get. These are some of the more positive changes, but plot points and puzzles from the original are cut from this entry, so it makes the game feel like a fast pace and seem like a short game. They really should have kept these things from the original to make the game feel longer and even out the pace to amore reasonable way. It also really irks me since these were the things from the original game I was looking forward to. Overall, due to a plot that cuts things that would lengthen the game, weird fast pace I didn't really enjoy, and the main character being really unlikable to me, this game was really only an okay experience.    … Expand

    RE3 is WAY more linear then the first two remakes and it excells in it. The controls are tighter than ever, graphics are sharp, they finally brought back the indestructible knife, difficulty felt more balanced then previous games, the dodge move works fine and boss battles were improved. This entry feels a lot more like RE4 than others (especially when playing with Carlos) and that's where the magic is.
    I loved that there are fewer and simpler puzzles this time, I loved Nemesis' persistance and aggression, the scripted parts are tense as hell and the horror factor is nearly untouched throughout the entire adventure, even with its action-packed moments. Also, they finally fixed the "B-Movie" style of dialogues, upgrading the writing, enhancing characters and focusing more on a solid story.
    I actually cared more for the characters and that just ramps up the tension on intense periods of the campaign.

    Now, I get it, there are a lot of cuts in here and that's really bad.
    Although I think RE3 benefits from cutting the overwhelming amount of puzzles that the original had, cutting things like the clock tower and Gravedigger sucked a bit of the product's life and felt really unnecessary. I liked the story's pacing, but I was left wanting... more? Especially in the ending. What the **** did that final scene means? It's clueless!
    The lenght of the game did not bother me, but it doesn't have the same replayability as previous ones. RE1 and 2 were amazingly well designed, with their interconnected levels and clever enemy, puzzle pieces and items placement. This one doesn't do it as well. Also, the soundtrack is good, but not used perfectly like previous REmakes.

    RE3 is not as faithful to the original as Capcom's previous releases and it's certainly the least astonishing one of the trilogy, but it still packs quite a punch! You owe it to yourself to experience this tense and powerful horror classic. There's A LOT more to like than dislike.    … Expand

Raccoon City has never looked better and the way they handled Nemesis himself was unique, and I found myself enjoying every chase, fight and flee that he forced upon me. The characters were well acted, with enough depth to care their outcomes. All in all, I think it was slightly underwhelming sequel to what many are calling the “best remake” along with the original’s remaster. Flawed? Yes. Fun, exciting and horrifying? Absolutely!… Expand

    Having got this for my bday, I have to admit I had a LOT of fun with it. I'm not a one and done player, I replayed it to unlock all the extra goodies. I have only Inferno mode left to finish. That being said, 60 bucks is too much for it, 40 would be a fair price.

    Massive disappointment. Way too short, completely ruined the most iconic enemy in the whole series, terrible writing at times, lots of cut content, lazy, rushed development, almost no replayability apart from the harder modes, junk multiplayer mode. Good looking game tho with good combat system, that's it.
    Stay away from this game. Massive lazy cashgrab.

    If you are a fan of the series, ignore any negative reviews. This game continues in the same vein of re2 remake. Not as great as re 2 but then again neither was the original. Well done, great graphics in the city, mechanics are very good. As for it being short, I don’t mind games that actually have an ending.
    Bravo Capcom, bravo Jill Valentine, I Hope Code Veronica is next!!

Plus this game also comes with the surprisingly fun and addicting Resident Evil Resistance that many critics seem to just completely ignore. Must buy! Thank you Capcom! ❤️

    The presentation, acting, gameplay and pace of the game are miles above the original. Jill Valentine is fleshed out far more as a character. Capcom has finally given Jill the attention she deserves as an iconic female hero. This game is a ton of fun; it is a pure blast to play. Its tense, creepy, yet very action oriented. The soundtrack and ambience are perfect, which makes it a shame we can't explore more of Racoon City. This game isn't actually shorter than most Resident Evil games, it just feels that way because classic locations like the clock tower and park were not included, making fans of the original feel that this game is missing something. Not including the park especially is a missed opportunity because it would have been refreshing and gorgeous in the RE engine. The park and clock tower helped the original RE3 standout because they were unique locations that contrasted the series typical oppressive indoor environments.

    Objectively, this is still a fantastic game though. There is a lot to love here, it's just too bad Capcom cut a few things they shouldn't have because this game easily could have been as good as the RE2 remake or better, but that is a high bar to hit. This is still a very good game and it is a loyal improvement over the original in many ways, just not all of them.    … Expand

    Nemesis, although being scary, didn't put me on the edge of my seat as much as Mr. X in the remake, or the nemesis in the original for that matter, the encounters with him in this game feel scripted and that doesn't make them as scary for me.
    But what we got, in my opinion, despite it's flaws, is still a fun game with amazing gameplay, soundtrack and graphics and i also think some of the new additions are great.
    I will be revisiting this game in the future because i had so much fun with but i don't think it's as much replayable as 2.
    If they're going to keep remaking these older titles i hope they do it with code veronica, that game was always highly underappreciated.

Risks were taken and they all paid off. What we have is an elevated more coherent version of the original story in terms of characters, their motivations and the events that took place. It's an intelligent restructuring with greater emphasis placed on the star of the show 'Nemesis' and less meandering about obscure locations in the third act, like in the original, instead it boils until the pot spills over with a more logical sequence of encounters and areas. It also takes what is an already linear game (RE3 Nemesis lacked significant backtracking, instead opting for flourishes like item & enemy variation & live decisions) and presents it in a way that is better suited to the story being told.

    What might mark a series first are serviceable and well paced cutscenes that don't impede the visceral interaction of the genre thanks to their direction, writing, acting and brevity. More than any Resident Evil before it they help realise the intended progression, which is to say one long unrelenting chase sequence and one spectacular climax replete with uncomfortably entertaining '80's action heroine quips', fun fleeting character dynamics and a simple, accessible plot i.e destroy the creature.

    Whilst 2's remake was in many ways a tribute, 3's makes a genuine attempt to raise the spectacle and continuity of it's legacy. The original from a gameplay perspective is in fact a great game, despite lacking in coherency and not really fitting into place other than to make a few major contributions to lore. As a sequel, as an end to a trilogy it arguably lacked the necessary framework. The developers very deliberately made an effort to fix this through their unapologetic vision, predictably to the outcome of nostalgic outcries.

    There might be division but make no mistake this is an incredible game and as good as the previous remake, even after multiple playthroughs I'm still looking forward to a lot. It is however built on different choices, with a variety of increasing highly altered difficulties and an in game shop that's respective currency is tied to achievements earned via campaign mastery.

    As of this review, I'm hoping it gets some DLC akin to the previous add ons for Re7 and Re2R but for what it's worth I do believe the main game stands on it's own as a tight, finely tuned romp.    … Expand

Jill Valentine proves she is the best "Resident Evil" character in the the whole franchise. It is a good game that I would rate 8 out of 10. It is worth buying this great game and multiplayer experience bundled in one.… Expand

It's clear that CRAPCOM never had any respect for the third installment of the series as they have for 1 and 2. the linearity, the emptiness, the fast foward and inconsequent action, the excess of cutscenes, the lack of great enemy distribution and super generous ammo offering and lack of replayability leave sthe player with a lackluster feeling. Capcom did bad with this remake, unlike RE2R.… Expand

    It was decent if a little short, RE2 was better so it was a bit of a downgrade. Cut content from the OG. The characters were well performed and captured though, all of them. While I was playing it I struggled to put it down so was left craving a bit more, Resistance is alright but it is let down by laggy games almost everytime. The main game is lacking though, especially on costumes

    Bien mieux que le 2 remake pour moi alors certe un peu court mais si on le trouve court c’est qu’il est bon non? Je préfère un jeu de 5h bien que un jeu de 20 heures merdique en plus le 2 eme vaut une durée de vie artificielle scénario bis minable jeu labyrinthique niveau des égouts qui dure 5 ans alors qu’il est nul ce niveau... je préfère largement ce qu’ils ont fait du 3

    The previous RE remakes sure weren't exactly the old games but now good looking (thankfully). Some elements were added or completely revamped, but fans could still relate to the original works from where they were based on, whereas RE 3 stumbles by going too far on the premise of reimagining things almost killing the nostalgia factor by removing much of it's iconic elements. The new take on Brad's death is underwhelming, no clock tower (now is just background scenario), no raccoon park and no Nemesis at the Police Station. Unexplainable...but if you could overcome (or don't care about) the lack of love for nostalgic hearts, there's still a very enjoyable game to play, but sadly a short one, it last as about a single campaign from RE2 remake (5-6 hours). I do not enjoy overly long games, but it ends too soon. If they kept Clock Tower and Raccoon Park it would probably be just fine.    … Expand

    I’ve been with this franchise from the ps1 days and there have been very many highs and lows. RE2 remake was a fantastic game!! But I am so disappointed with RE3 remake. This feels like RE6 all over again:( I hate saying that but it’s true.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is gonna be a story so relax and listen to an old head explain why this is malarkey incarnate. The game begins in a typical way, starting with a slow, lore intensive opening in which Jill becomes the master of conspiracies and ptsd, and then Nemesis just shows up, busting through a wall. No ounce of subtlety, just big boom. Then, a heavily scripted chase sequence, which ends nonsensically as a doorway of rubble stops Nemesis, he could've easily continued chasing her. Anyway, brad dies, Jill gets her gun, a helicopter shows up and gets blown out of the sky. Now, I would like to say that this was the entire first hour of gameplay in the original game. The entire game has fallacies and shortcuts such as this, and the fact it is not a visual and technical upgrade from the previous game makes all of this unacceptable. The story is not only as inconsequential as the original, but they ripped scenes from other popular games (i.e. killing nemesis is exactly like killing the mastermind in DOOM 2016 no exaggeration.) The mercenaries mode is gone, and the thing I hate the most, the epic final line where Jill says "I'll give you Stars!" is quite literally a throwaway line in another bs scripted chase scene. This game has little respect for the source material, and turned it into the Resident Evil Vendetta of the RE game series. You may wonder what the 1 point is for then if I dislike the game so much? Drain Deimos. Look that up and you will have a good time. Either way, buy re2 before this one.… Expand

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.    … Expand

    In addition, one of the greatest villains of all time in games has been reduced to an non intimidating threat, completely scripted and with a less imposing look. It's really a shame, but this Remake was nowhere near as grand as it could be, following RE2 Remake, its great predecessor. It's not a bad game, it has fluidity and graphic beauty and it's fun, especially for those who don't know the original classic version, but as a Remake, it fails miserably. I hope Capcom, my favorite game company, receives more negative and constructive feedback to learn from their mistakes.    … Expand

They did Jill justice this time and really made her character development stand out.. her portrayal here outshines any other game released with her in it.. I played through the higher difficulties, it really is a huge challenge, scary, nerve wracking, punishing and is way more more brutal for the player than re2 in my opinion.. loved it enough and am glad to add it to my collection! PS Capcom please don’t do a remake of 4 and instead focus on Code Veronica next!… Expand

    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]

    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.
