    Un juego muy corto, se quitaron los escenarios y enemigos iconos del original, y nemesis parece un chiste, no es feroz como el tyrant del 2

    Oh god how I wished I loved this game, I heard so many negative things about it before playing ,but I wanted with all my heart not to view it that way.Well my wish came true ,I adored this game ,it's easily in my top 10 favourite games.

    The gameplay is similar to Resident Evil 2 Remake yet more action packed .It's super fun and satisfying.There was not a single moment I didn't enjoy in this game, not every game needs to be long and for me who have not played the original yet and I knew about the game's length it was an excellent experience .Nemesis is terrifying ,the atmosphere is great and eerie.There is a decent enemy variety to make the experience not stale.The bossfights were really good and intense and I enjoyed that the final fight had a little more into it than waiting and getting the big ass weapon and ending it in a single shot. The areas were fantastic ,all of them .Most of all I liked roaming to raccoon city and the hospital section ,they were phenomenal.There wasn't as much backtracking ,but I'm fine with it.Worth mentioning of course are the puzzles which were enjoyable to say the least.

    The cast was amazing .Jill is an amazing protagonist ,she shines way more here than she does in Resident Evil , she is probably my favourite video game protagonist along with Leon. Carlos was a great secondary character.At first I wasnt that much into playing as him ,but how can you not love this guy, I wouldn't want a Carlos-less world.Nemesis is a great antagonistic force that constantly greatly pushes the narrative .There are also more things going on,but I will avoid them cause I don't want to spoil.

    The game looks amazing ,the RE engine shows once again how great it is ,the graphics look stellar.
    I also need to say that the credits song was a really beautiful piece of music,it really made me feel nostalgic for some reason and warmed my heart.

    Overall,I have to say that it makes me sad when people don't respect this game,because even if there are many differences with the original ,much love was clearly poured into it and it's visible.It's an amazing game that needs more love and respect. I 100% recommend this very underrated gem of a game    … Expand

    Well-made and entertaining, but also disappointing. The campaign is only about 6 hours long. Also, Nemesis is a real push over. But despite the flaws, RE 3 is a joy to play and is visually spectacular. Replay value is solid due to plenty of in-game challenges that unlock content. The Resistance multiplayer mode is decent and will appeal to fans of "Dead by Daylight". Overall, RE 3 remakeWell-made and entertaining, but also disappointing.

    The weakest Resident Evil Remake so far, it feels a little bit underwhelming but it's still entertaining even though some later parts drag on.

    First things first, the game is very linear and always holds the player's hand, especially in the first few hours, you literally just walk forward to watch cutscenes and interact with some things now and then.

    It's almost identical to Resident Evil 2 Remake in so many ways, and not in a good way, some areas are literally copy pasted, and there's no innovation. Also it's not very scary, the hospital section is a bit creepy and has a nice dark atmosphere, but some of the puzzles are quite tedious.

    What I liked the most is the core gameplay, it's overall an enjoyable game, the shooting feels satisfying, and the evade mechanic helps a lot, Jill's movement is perfect and works well with the gameplay mechanics.

    The characters are okay, I really liked Jill, she's very cute and badass, and her animations look smooth and adorable, she's pretty much the star of the show. Carlos is a cool companion and he has the stronger weapons, playing as him made the game more fun.

    Backtracking felt nice, the areas are a bit short but there's a good amount of exploration, you can find collectibles, resources, notes that give the story more depth and just random small little secrets.

    It's worth mentioning that the story is sadly very uninteresting, incredibly short, predictable with a terrible antagonist, and a lot of cut content. Lastly, Nemesis is unfortunately just some scripted sequences, and the boss fights are very disappointing. I really like his new design and voice though, he looks menacing and scary.

    In the end, I really wanted to like this game, and I kind of did... I mean, my thoughts about it are mostly positive, but it could've been so much more. Regardless, I had a good time playing though it even though it has some serious flaws.

    Final Rating: "Decent" ~ 6/10.    … Expand

    I can agree that the game is too short, I can agree that it's a pity that they cut iconic locations from the game, but I can't agree when someone writes that it's a bad game... it's far from such a rating! I even think that some elements (like the story) have even been improved. Feel that escape from the city now. This is that LAST ESCAPE from the original.

I should have given it a 9 but I had too much fun with this game so I'm giving it a 10 anyway!

    Btw. Capcom behaved badly by not releasing DLC ​​expanding the story. Every game has something like this. Just not RE3R, and it didn't sell all that badly..    … Expand

Não existe armas novas, trajes novos, não respeitaram a obra original e não trouxeram novidades interessantes. A única coisa que se salva é o gráfico e a jogabilidade e o visual dos personagens, exceto do nemesis.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I did not have a totally bad experience with the video game. There are several factors in the game that feel rougher than in the previous remake (Resident Evil 2), among those aspects is the inventory sistem that feels a less worse than Resident Evil 2, another task is the main character's (Carlos Oliveira and Jill Valentine)behavior in some parts of the game making jokes like Jill is a heart cold Girl. To finish my review it is impossible not to talk about the final fight with Nemesis that was a downgrade with the gameplay mechanics , the truth is that they could not complete it as much as they wanted due to the lack of time to publish the game. With all this said, I say goodbye.(sorry if I had some gramatical mistakes, Im from Venezuela)… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's NOT entirely bad, but it IS the WORST of the RE Remake Franchise series. With that being said, I'll break it down in 2. The Good and the Bad.
    The Bad: The New design of the Nemesis is Terrible, doesn't even come close to the original. Every SINGLE time, that you fight the Nemesis, it is scripted (yes you DID fight the Nemesis in the original, in scripted parts. But in MANY occasions it was RANDOM), the Deletion of the WHOLE Clocktower Area was a TERRIBLE decision. The Good: The music is VERY reminiscent of 80s Horror/sci-fi, as a Gen-X Gamer I can testify for this. The new design of Carlos was a DEFINITE improvement and last the overall Graphics was Fantastic and that's what pretty much sugar coated the entire game. But again this is the WEAKEST of the ENTIRE RE Remake Franchise installments.    … Expand

    Kinda what I expected, is not as bad as some people say it is, however it was definitely not worth the full price since is VERY SHORT and has no replayabilty, it could ve been more open and better, yes, it could ve been more fun gameplay wise. This is in between re2 and re4 and has little stuff from each one of them, its not as restrained as re2 but its neither as fun as re4.

    Less scary and more action. If you were too much scared to play RE2 or you wanted more action game then I definitely recommend this one because it feels like more action oriented DLC.

    A diferencia del remake de resident evil 2, este (sin dejar de ser un muy buen juego), se queda corto, se olvida de escenarios claves del original y eso le puede hacer perder encanto. Pero es un muy buen juego, que te mantendrá entretenido hasta el final.

    A remake full of disappointment. Capcom should have done a better job here. I like how the characters have been improved over the original but many of the original game content was cut from the remake, which I have no idea why. A remake should capture the charm of the original game and even add to it. This remake does the opposite.

I had to replay all of the nemesis boss fights twice because the cutscenes failed to trigger as well as the hospital defense scenario. Explosive weapons didn't start working until after the first time I died. It's a very short game. Can be completed in 2 hours and most of the puzzle sequences were removed. Zero replay ability.

Nemesis at the downtown was terrifying with his new design, even though that he goes down by one grenade. But if you play it on nightmare or inferno there will be a small chance that you will even get a grenade because you have to use them against the other monsters. I love this version of Jill and Carlos too!.

    Literally every encounter i had with the nemesis was terrifying. And they should have included the clock tower.


    I really think that they could have done way better with this game but unfortunately no.

    This game is a solid 7.9/10.

    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.
