    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Muito bom o jogo. Não é melhor que Resident Evil 2, mas cumpre o seu papel perfeitamente. Muitas 8pessoas dizem que a trama é curta, mas o remake de Shadow of Colossus também é assim e ninguém criticou. Tem que saber que é uma reimaginação, então mudanças podem acontecer.… Expand

    Dont usually leave a review but this definitely deserves more praise than 6.1, I would give it at least an 8 but giving it a 10 to counter the 0's. Not as good as re2 but still pretty decent

    Llevo jugando todas los juegos de Resident Evil y honestamente este remake se me hizo una buena forma de proporcianarle frescura. Quizá quiten partes icónicas pero si lo vemos desde un punto de vista distinto es un juego muy bueno. En cuanto a la duracion quizá si sea bastante corto pero hasta el original lo era y vaya que es el que dura menos de la saga. Dejen su hate y disfrutenlo

    adorei o game, tem muitos fãs toxicos que reclamam de tudo, mas o game é maravilhoso, quem quer um jogo muito bom e pra se divertir, esse é o game certo. Pra mim, a capcom acertou em nao fazer um ctrl+c e ctrl-v do classico, se for pra pagar em um jogo, que seja um jogo novo.
    me surpreendi com o game. Parabens a equipe da capcom.

Mercenaries mode, which everyone keeps **** about, will be added in DLC, just like the mercenaries mode they added to RE2 remake. It's not a surprise that the 0 and 1 reviews on here also contain a ton of misspellings and grammar errors. Bunch of entitled morons.… Expand

    It's a great remake like its predecessor. It's short but amazing game. I have already played it 3 times and I never feel bored. The environment is better than I expected and nemesis scarier than ever. it's a full package.

    Great fun and the perfect complement to the RE2 Remake. While the main campaign is a little short the additional difficulties and added Resistance game do make up for it. If you enjoyed RE2 then you’ll enjoy this.

    The game is a solid 8 out of 10. Only giving it a 10 to offset all the toxic entitled childish fans of the series. Yes, it's a bit worse than the RE2 Remake, but that is to be expected because the truth is, even in 1999 the original RE3 felt like a DLC for a RE2, and used the same engine, the same mechanics, many of the same assets/locations, and was criticised for having too much actionThe game is a solid 8 out of 10.

The reality is RE3 Remake compares to RE2 Remake in almost the same way as RE3 Original compares to RE2 Original. Sure, some of the "iconic" content was cut, but some new content has been added with new story beats, plot twists and action sequences that never existed before this remake. Is it as good as RE2 remake? Probably not. Is it a 0 or a 1 out of 10? Absolutely not! It's still a great game with plenty of moments that will keep you on the edge of your seat. One criticism I agree with is it's a bit short and should have been priced accordingly. Then again, RE3 original was a pretty short game, I remember beating it with my mates in under 4 hours when I was 9 or 10.… Expand

    An unbiased review of RE3make from someone who hasn’t played the original game since he was a child and thus has no real nostalgic tie to it as he does the other RE games: It’s **** great and a total BLAST to play!

The gameplay is seamless; the tension and atmosphere are palpable (especially in Carlos’s sections); the environments are beautifully realized and packed with detail; the new character models are all sexy as hell; the music is gorgeous; and the story, including the alterations, is brilliant and refreshing, and so **** exciting! I understand why many RE fans may miss the locations and enemies from the original game that were excised in this remake, but I don’t personally miss them. (Although, I could have done without ANOTHER (however brief) sewer section.) The only criticisms I might have, are: 1. Nemmy is underutilized and somehow less intimidating than Mr. X. The encounters with him are intense, but they’re mostly scripted and it’s surprisingly easy to shake him off in the few sections of the game where he actively follows you throughout a level. (I played on Standard difficulty, my first round—Hardcore is next!) 2. The exploration is sadly limited. Levels and environments are mostly linear, with a few buildings and alleys to explore for some goodies. Other than that, it’s a straight shot to each destination, which is somewhat disappointing. It doesn’t at all break my experience, because this game is far more hectic and action-packed than the second remake, but it would have been so nice to explore a sprawling Raccoon City again! 3. The puzzles are traded out for “Turn on four _______” missions. RE2make also had a severe lack of puzzles, but it had a lot more than RE3make, which has close to none. Maybe puzzles in a game as action-packed as RE3make would have ruined the pacing, but I would have liked a few more than are present. That’s it! Those are all the negative things I have to say about this game and I can’t wait to play it again and again, as I’ve done every other entry!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a longtime RE fan. I loved the RE2make last year and dumped a lot of time into it. I was super excited and not surprised given the success of RE2 that Capcom would release a remake of RE3. And it does not disappoint at all. 1.) Length and Replay Value- Do not listen to all the salty “fans” on these other reviews saying the campaign is too short to justify a $60 price tag, in my opinion that’s wrong. I spent 8 1/2 hours playing through my first run on hardcore which is a solid length for an RE game. My first play through of RE2 remake took me 7 hours for Part A and 2 1/2 hours for part B. So it’s just barely longer than RE3. With the inclusion of unlockable content including an in game shop that sells game altering items and costumes. As well as a new difficulty called Nightmare that shuffles enemy placement and item placement the replay value is high in the RE3 remake.

    2.) Nemesis- I keep hearing Nemesis is completely scripted now. He was in the original too so I don’t understand that complaint. Nemesis is way more intimidating this time around compared to the original. He will cut you off, sprint after you, and pull you to him Scorpion style. Mr. X was intimidating at first in RE2 remake but once you knew his limited move set and how easily avoidable he was he became more of a nuisance. Becoming a road block keeping you from doing the next objective (looking at you RPD Library). Nemesis on the other hand becomes the objective when he is on screen. Down him and you will be rewarded handsomely. Nemesis encounters are set pieces to drive the story forward rather than a road block that was intimidating at first but quickly wore down its welcome like Mr. X. Capcom made the right choice keeping Nemesis scripted. Having Nemesis constantly stalk you at certain times like Mr. X would have been annoying.

    3.) Main Characters - Jill is a badass protagonist in RE3 remake and way more fleshed out due to her having PTSD from the Mansion incident in RE1. I liked her voice actress too. She had some funny one liners as well as some serious weighty moments with Carlos and with Nikolai. One scene in particular that stands out to me is when Jill first meets Nikolai and Nikolai promptly shoots and kills a comrade whom he believes is in infected. Jills voice actress and the the motion capture on this scene had me totally invested.

    Carlos character is the biggest departure from original RE3. His character and look was dorky in OG RE3 but has been replaced with a suave, smooth talker in the RE3 remake.

    Jill and Carlos chemistry is on point and I loved all of their interactions in the cut scenes and walkie talkie conversations.

    4.)Gameplay - Gunplay is tight and responsive. Jill and Carlos feel agile and more fluid than Leon or Claire with the included addition of the dodge mechanic you feel better prepared to take on the zombie hordes roaming Raccoon City.

    5.)Graphics/Animation- Jill and Carlos hold and aim their weapons in a professional manner. Which might not mean a whole lot to most players but I love accurate representation of tactics and movements, these characters are elite and they should look and feel the part. Where to start with graphics? The RE engine is a powerhouse, the facial expressions are amazingly realistic, giving you the feeling that these characters are real and you want them to survive.

    The lighting is superb especially on the streets of RC and in the hospital. Some textures and decals look a little blurry but that’s just a small gripe. The cutscenes are well made, movements are realistic and lip movement is perfectly in sync. Feels like you’re watching a movie. I Didn’t think it was possible but RE3 really does look better than RE2 and I thought RE2 looked fantastic.

    6.) Audio- Although I was a little disappointed that the RE3 original soundtrack wasn’t included like the RE2 OST was with the deluxe edition of RE2. I was still kept on edge by the ambient noise. Tension is the name of the game here and this game deserves to be played with a nice pair of surround sound headphones or 7.1 surround sound system. You can hear zombies moan in the distance, water dripping, winds blowing outside. Gun shots sound heavy and feel like they have real weight behind them, especially the Glock 18. The star of the soundtrack is the little things and it’s all incredibly subtle, I played with a pair of Audio Technica 7.1 surround headphones and I was completely immersed in the survival horror.

    Bottom Line : RE3 remake is a worthy successor to the RE2 remake. I dare say that I liked this remake just a little bit more than the RE2 remake which is bound to be an unpopular opinion. True RE fans will love diving back into Raccoon City. The graphics were better, the antagonist more intimidating, the gameplay more refined, and the protagonists more believable and likable. Jill’s my girl!

    Anyone who loved RE2make needs to play this game. The quality is extremely high (one of the best opening first hours in a game, ever) and there is a ton of replay value/things to unlock.

    Quality >>>> Quantity always. People who only play long, bloated games need to take a look at how they value their time.

    В RE3 намного больше динамики по сравнению с RE2, за счёт этого игра проходится на одном дыхании, за всё прохождение ни разу не было желания остановится.
    По поводу время прохождения игры, люди активно пишут что это DLC ко второй части за полную стоимость, было сразу понятно что RE3 выйдет коротким, что вы не будете его проходить порядка 20 часов как RE2, потому что в игре одна компания.

    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.
