    Obra prima. Fiel ao original, acrescenta elementos e coisas e tudo é feito com perfeição e riqueza de detalhes. Maravilhoso.

    I didn't play the original version of this game, but my friends say that it improved a lot. Even though the mechanics are dated, they work perfectly, offering challenge, exploration and of course a thriller feeling which never stops during the campaign. The controls are tight, but I had some problems with shooting enemies in certain camera angles with fast-moving enemies.

    Um ótimo Remake (ou remaster, chamem do que quiserem), fiel ao original em sua maior parte. Sou apaixonado pelo original e me apaixonei de novo por esse. Se teve algum erro foi não manterem alguns puzzles como no jogo original, mas com certeza é um dos melhores RE lançados em anos.

    Um ótimo jogo de terror/puzzle, apesar de não gostar desse estilo de combate esse jogo se superou.

    Sufre de las mecánicas que hace años se quedaron anticuadas, como la cámara y los controles de tanque, pero sigue siendo un clásico referente del género.

    One of the Best Resident Evil games ever, the 96 original was superb but this perfects it in every way. It has one of the best settings in the entire series. Graphics still look amazing even after all these years. Story is superb and the cheesy acting adds to the charm, all the characters are awesome.

    As for this version, there are updated controls that make it way easier to move; No revolving turning, just point in the direction relative to the camera angle, and if you want to keep running in that direction, don't deviate on your left stick and you'll keep running straight, no problem. It might take a second to get used to, but realistically, it takes less time to get used to this version than it did to the original game.

    Multiple game modes and accomplishments make this replayable. My only real complaint, aside from this having brighter lighting and smoother textures than the GC version (which was grittier, better for horror), is that they eventually replace certain zombies with self-destructing zombies you can't shoot after you unlock an infinite ammo gun, and it's just really annoying that you can't turn it off because I've played for 40+ minutes without saving before just to accidentally lock on, hit the trigger, and BOOM, game over. Aside from that, this is absolutely a worthy version of the game. Let's just hope for an FPS version some day.    … Expand

The original has not aged well, with the blocky graphics, bright environments, and intensely cheesy action/horror balance, it’s not a good representation today of its impact back when it was released. Remake rectifies this, becoming the definitive version of the first in the series; ageless, gorgeous, and, for hardcore fans, Resident Evil: Remake is the epitome of what makes the franchise great.

    Very well done remaster of the 2002 gamecube remake the improvement is very noticable and it's not just improved resolution Capcom has imoroved the textures and models and on top of that added new content which didn't exist in the 2002 remake like real survivor mode and invisible enemy mode

    The pinnacle of survival horror and one of the greatest games ever made. It's been over 20 years and I still love it just as much if not more. Survival horror gameplay is so satisfying, especially in Resident Evil Remake. When you start out you feel like a mouse trapped in a violent maze. Then you start to learn the map, figure things out, get better and make your way through.    9.7/10

    The pinnacle of survival horror and one of the greatest games ever made. It's been over 20 years and I still love it just as much if not more.

    Survival horror gameplay is so satisfying, especially in Resident Evil Remake. When you start out you feel like a mouse trapped in a violent maze. Then you start to learn the map, figure things out, get better and make your way through. Then the replays begin. You go from fumbling your way through to attempting things like harder difficulties, speed runs, no save runs, no hit runs, etc. It is so enjoyable, rewarding and fun. If there was any game I could forget and experience all over again it would probably be this.

    Every enemy encounter is meaningful because they don’t go down quickly and you have to consider the risk, limited resources, item management and backtracking. When you approach a zombie or hear one around the corner you need to stop and make a decision. Do I take it out or try to run past? Is there another way to go? How much health and/or ammo do I have? How much health and ammo is back in the item box? When am I going back to the item box? How often am I going to come back here? If I put it down will I come back and burn it so it doesn’t get back up? What do I do if I get hit? Do I have any self defence items? How much progress will I lose if I die? The game allows you to screw yourself and never holds your hand but this makes overcoming it so much sweeter. It is utterly fantastic.

    Then on top of this there is enjoyable exploration through creepy, atmospheric environments that you slowly unlock your way further into. With tense action against tough, scary enemies that forces you to stand your ground or run. The weapons hit hard and can produce graphic headshots and you can die just as horrifically. And the puzzles that are just right. Nasty traps, horror, gore and jump scares. This game recipe is f**king exquisite.

    The presentation is stellar. The fixed camera angles allow the developers to perfectly frame the whole game to increase the atmosphere, horror and player discomfort, and to highlight or hide things for the player. The visuals and art direction are excellent. The environments are gorgeous and detailed or dirty and gruesome when needed. The mansion is stunning and has so much atmosphere. It is my favourite video game location ever, it’s that good. The character and enemy models are great. The game is getting old now but still looks so good. Of course the audio is top notch too. The music, sound effects and ambient noises are so well done but they also knew when to have restraint and it’s all such a big part of the game's unnerving atmosphere.

    I love the characters, story, lore and dialogue too. The history of the mansion, Umbrella and the experiments is fun to dive into and all the notes/diaries/documents are worth reading. Jill, Chris, Barry, Rebecca, Wesker, even poor Richard, I love them all. The famous dialogue is a joy as is the B horror movie vibe.

    The only thing I can think of that is wrong is that I wish there was more of it and that we still got games like this regularly. A little bit longer, more options, more unlockables, more variety on further playthroughs. But I’m probably just being greedy, this game is near perfect. The only other issue is that the cave and laboratory areas are not as memorable as the mansion and residence for me.

    It improves on everything from the original while staying true to that vision. It doesn’t really throw anything away or remix stuff too much. It just makes it better and the new additions fit in so well it’s like they were always meant to be there.

    Go play this now if you've never tried it. I’m serious, I don’t care what your plans are. If you’ve never played Resident Evil Remake, fix that as soon as possible. I’m jealous that you get to experience this for the first time and wish I could again. Give it some time, you will get used to the older gameplay style and find it really works for this type of game. I hope as many people as possible enjoy this. Resident Evil Remake is how remakes should be done and how well games in general should be done.

    This is the 3rd resident evil game I played,I am new to the series so I have no actual nostalgia for this game,yet it somehow managed to make me feel nostalgic.It's way different compared to the other 2 resident evil games I've played ,which are Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 4 Remake.

    I really loved the fixed camera ,it adds tension in a different way and enhances the atmosphere .The game has great level design ,which is unique and filled with multiple intriguing puzzles that characterize the series .The atmosphere is eerie and cool.The game looks stellar despite its age and has a great art direction .

    There were some genuinely terriffying moments like the first crimson head and hunter encounter. The story progresses naturally and smoothly and is pretty interesting as it unfolds.Endings can be different depending on the player's actions and exploration,which is a huge bonus on my book.The bosses are not as great as in more recent games,but are still really pretty cool and distinct.

    The sound design and music are great as well,there are some really iconic themes,like the safe room one.

    I have only 1 complaint about this game,which is the 2nd character scenario.The differences between Jill's and Chris' playthrough are minimal , the bosses are exactly the same and even the item placement doesnt change.I would really like for the 2 scenarios to be interconnected,but it is what it is .It could be that it was my first playthrough ,but I enjoyed my Jill run way more,not because of chris' inconveniences ,but just because everything was new to me at that point and there was tension,I also enjoyed Jill way more as a character.

    All in all REmake is a fantastic game and one of my favourites for sure .I would definitely recommend it even to a person that is not that much into the older style of Resident Evil ,because that's the series' roots    … Expand

    bom demais. o único problema é que algumas partes como a da mansão ficam enjoativas depois de um tempo nelas, más é um bom jogo recomendo demais.

    porque resident evil 3 não seguiu este exemplo?

    A remarkable homage to the original survival horror masterpiece to be enjoyed by fans of the original PS1 game, the GameCube remake or even complete newbs. Some of the mechanics like the dated inventory system can and will frustrate, but the overall journey is a rewarding one through one of gaming’s most important games.
