    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es una interesante expansión del resident evil 2 remake, una persona que no halla jugado los originales va a encontrar un buen juego pero de ningún modo vale 60usd, por 30usd o menos está bien, no esperen survivor es frenético y pura acción lo que lo hace entretenido. Ahora sí como fanático de más de 15 años de la serie siento que esté juego es un insulto, omitieron escenarios importantes, némesis paso de ser una bow inteligente e imbatible a un animal poco inteligente, lo de Brad muriendo solo dejo más inútil a némesis ya que ni logra eliminar a un STARS y podria seguir todo el dia, El juego original tenía un potencial inmenso para que se desperdicie así. El puntaje se lo doy porque si es entretenido, los gráficos son alucinantes, la mezcla de los ost originales con los nuevos son muy buenos, la verdad me siento estafado por el poco contenido y por como arruinaron la historia origina. PD: ame al re3 remake y sabía que esto iba a ser una reimaginacion por lo que esperaba cambios pero casi todos los cambios fueron para peor.… Expand

    Okay so, admittedly, I was never much of a Resident Evil fan before the Resident Evil 2 : Remake. That was my first RE ever, and it easily became on of my favorite games I've ever played. From the puzzle solving, to the resource management system to the third person over the shoulder camera angle (admittedly wasn't a fan of the fixed camera + tank controls), it is a perfect game to me.

I was naturally PUMPED for this RE3 Remake, and I'm not disappointed, outside of a few minor things. I really can not talk about cut content and how true it is to the original, never having played it, this game on it's own is great, in my personal opinion. My minor complaints and why it isn't a 9.5-10 has to do with the length and replay-ability. I like RE2 more because of its slower pace, puzzle solving and backtracking but the RE3 Remake is a blast to play and I'd give it a strong 8.5 to 9 out of 10. I understand peoples criticisms completely, though.… Expand

    Resident Evil 3 Remake is a good game. But it is INCOMPLETE.

    CAPCOM took advantage of the MARKETING of Resident Evil 2 Remake to sell the RE3.

    Be ashamed, CAPCOM.

    Adding DLCS is MANDATORY.

    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.

    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.

    I just want to start off by saying that I have never played the original but I’m a big fan of the series. After finishing the RE3 remake this morning, I can’t recommend the game at its current price point. $60 is really steep for something that can be beat in less than 6 hours while offering very little reason to go back and beat it again.

Outside of the length, RE3 doesn’t offer much in terms of a memorable story, environments, or even enemies. Most of the time you’re fighting zombies with the occasional monster appearing to mix up the combat. This game would have been perfect as an expansion to the RE2 remake but as a stand alone title it’d wait for the inevitable sale.… Expand

    O gráfico e jogabilidade foram muito aprimoradas, em relação ao RE2. O enredo dos personagens foi muito bem feito.
    Em relação ao Nemesis, gostei das novas formas, mas não gostei dele ter perdido a racionalidade na segunda forma. Ele transformou-se em um animal, com único objetivo de matar a Jill. Daria desconto na ultima forma, onde ele perde completamente a sanidade.
    O jogo ficou com uma gameplay muito curta. Vi gente zerando o jogo na primeira, em menos de 4h. É muito pouco.

    Bom, eu acredito que para levantar o hype do game a capcom já deve ter uma DLC, tipo mercenários, na manga. Por que senão, as vendas vão ser um desastre. Não vejo ninguém comprando o jogo por causa do Resistence.    … Expand

    I was expecting a GREAT game, but to many red flags were raised before its release, culminating with total disapointment, this game is just a cash grab, nothing more.

    The good: The controls are perfect, the Graphics are great and Carlos voice actor is charming as **** and thats it.

    Now the bad: Everything else about it is just either reused and copy pasted all over the place, buggy, uncomplete, boring and lazy

    This game is rushed, it really needed at least one more year of work, to be in an acceptable state, I would like to say that its a shadow of the original but its not, everything about it is a missed oportunity, its full of reused zombies/assets all over the place, i could even count the same zombie fat zombie with yellow vest up to 7 times, theres a wise saying that says "variety is the spice of life" and this game does not have it, they just copy/pasted EVERYTHING all over the place, even entire zones from REmake2

    Music?, its there yes, buts its so bad, that you cant even notice it, to the point you might just fall asleep (as bad as REmake2), and this time they didnt even bother to add the old sountrack to keep you awake

    Everything about this game is a downgrade to the original RE3, I would probably say its worth 15 bucks, dont waste your time, I would regret even watching a long play of this    … Expand

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. Resident Evil 3 Remake en terminos generales, es un muy buen juego, un gran homenaje al original de 1999.

    Dejando de lado el apartado técnico, puesto que la mejora es obvia respecto al clásico de hace 20 años, me centrare en lo que se refiere a la adaptación del mismo y plasmar la esencia del juego original, puesto que para mi, es la parte más importante.
    En esto, en mi opinión, pocas pegas se le pueden poner; pese a que reimagina gran parte o casi la totalidad de sus escenarios y localizaciones, consigue que la cohesión del conjunto, tenga mucho más sentido, sin perder las sensaciones y esencia del clásico original, aunque, por el camino se hayan quedado fuera, el interior de "La Torre del Reloj" o el paseo por el "parque/cementerio".
    En contrapartida a eso, se han añadido otras localizaciones nuevas, así como, diferentes eventos... Aunque, en este Remake en mayor medida, ya veníamos avisados desde el Resident Evil 2 Remake, pues, como fan del RE2 clásico, esperaba que siguiera exactamente los eventos del original y a los 5 minutos de juego, ya te dejaban claro que no seria así. Aun recuerdo la sensación de decepción que tuve en primera instancia, al hacer el recorrido de las calles de Racoon City a la Comisaria y no pasar por la armería de Kendo. Y después de terminarme-lo, bajar la cabeza, arrodillar-me y asumir, que era mucho mejor y todo tenia más sentido que en el clásico original.
    En el caso del Resident Evil 3 Remake pasa exactamente lo mismo, mejorando visualmente y si cabe la jugabilidad de su antecesor.

    Del modo multijugador no hablo, pues ni lo he probado ni tengo intenciones de hacer-lo, pero, es un añadido que a los amantes de los modos competitivos les puede interesar.

    La duración, que tanto se critica. no es más ni menos que la que tenia el juego original, pues, en una primera partida en normal, sin prisas, me ha llevado poco más de 6 horas terminarme-lo.
    Es poco por 60€, si, pero nadie nos obliga a comprar-lo de salida y después quejanos por ello, cuando ya nos lo esperavamos.

    Aunque podría haber-se hecho más y mejor, la sensación y el sabor de boca que me ha dejado es muy buena y no me arrepiento lo más mínimo de desembolsar 60 € en el.
    Me ha encantado, sin más.    … 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.
