    I still prefer the original version of RE2 more than the remake version of RE2, and I gave it a scores of 9/10 for the original version of RE2 and 7/10 for the remake version of RE2.

    I'd bought Resident Evil 2 not long ago after it was released on the PlayStation 1 console, and on my first time playing, there was a street with some zombies when the game started, at that time I still never thought it was that great, because I still didn't know the actual game's concept yet. But after a while (Kendo shop), I'd started to realize that this game has potential and unlike the other similar games, it felt more immersed like a real survivor horror rather than some simplistic game. It kinda feels like you were inside the survivor horror which being trapped inside a town due to car-wracked problems while attempting to drive out of the town, and have to survive and get out alive from the nightmarish town on foot without a vehicle, while also discovering the truth and unfolding some mysteries behind the places along the way which is also a fairly interesting and engaging experience. The game was especially good to play at night (especially at midnight) and without the light on, because this game has a really good atmosphere and fine game pace, especially on the first playthrough, and it fits the survivor horror game fairly well. RE2 was good also because it was balanced, which it didn't simply concentrate on certain elements like the shooting aspect or action aspect and rely too much on it, or just concentrate on the story or something that makes it unbalance, instead it was concentrating on all/more aspects which makes it more balanced as a whole. RE2 also felt somewhat like a movie at the same time due to the static camera angle, which the camera view could help make the game to feel somewhat like a movie, and have the complex unique visual experience which is also good and it fits nicely into the game's play style, especially the searching items element aspect.

    Resident Evil 2 has a good ambiance/atmosphere and it fits the game's settings fairly well. Good control design that fits very well with the game's play style and game's concept, while the game also has the right and suitable and reasonable game pace. The enemies are not too hard nor too illogical to make the game become not fun to proceed. Items didn't get highlights and become a spoiler or too apparent to the environment except important key items to add a searching and inspecting element to the game, because survivor elements also need the "search things by yourself" kind of reward or effort element. The game's colors were fairly realistic and naturalistic and are fairly suitable to the game's setting and concept. The environment/backdrop brightness is also fair, suitable and reasonable and it fits the game concept fairly well too, not too dark nor too dim to become boring to look at. The game music was well suited to the game and it felt natural, sometimes the game music also helps build a good atmosphere and create some proper mood and feeling. Well, although RE2 is already good enough actually, but it is still not the best yet, it still has room to be improved, Resident Evil 2 is still lacking, it still need some improvement to become an even better and ideal RE game.    … Expand

    Probably greatest survival horror of all time. I felt like this game really pushed the whole zombie apocalypse to another level from the romero horror films. If someone was to ask me which resident evil i should play first to understand or really know what this series is about i would say this. Its one of my favorite games of all time and if i could give it an 11 i would. Highly recommend.

    A bad game with terrible graphics. Why did they release it in this state?
    If you think that anything other than graphics matters, then you need to be arrested and killed for being so stupid that it's surprising that you can even get out of bed.

    The zombie threat reaches the streets of Racoon City. I personally prefer the claustrophobic single setting of the mansion in the first game, but the graphics, dialogue and voice acting are much improved. Another spooky and absorbing adventure.

    Resident Evil 2 expands on the original in all the right ways. The game has a lot more replay value than the first game does. There are four completely unique playthroughs that will take you around 15 or so hours to complete. I think the level design is actually better in this one than the first game. It's really a lot of fun to play.

    Además, RE2 no es de terror, son solo sustos ocasionales y nada más, además de que tiene la peor ubicación de enemigos y el respawn más estresante y frustrante. ¿Eso es terror? Bueno, terror porque se te acaba la munición injustamente, pero nada más

    El otro problema es el backtracking innecesario que se da porque el juego espera que adivines que hay más de 4 zombies por zona en promedio y debes de llevar más de un arma, por ende, más de una munición... Que la munición sea relativamente escasa al principio del juego me parece un grave error porque, como dije antes, el juego espera que adivines la cantidad de zombies por zona y a veces por RNG, salen zombies random, y si es que te encuentras un licker por ahí

    La banda sonora no es tan destacable como en el primer juego y su remake y no cumple del todo el 'ser atmosférico', ya que la mayoría de zonas están perféctamente iluminadas para ambientar tan dramáticamente como lo hace este juego.

    Es cierto que más adelante, el juego va mejorando en esos fallos, pero ya me había dejado muy "meh" este juego.    … Expand

    'Resident Evil' shook the game playing nation when it first arrived in 1996. Such was its popularity that Capcom developed a director's cut version the following year, which also featured a demo for the sequel, 'Resident Evil 2'. In 1998, the sequel appeared in its full glory and, while maybe not as good as the first game, was still a rip-roaring success and yet another golden gaming venture.

    Two months after the incident at the mansion in the Arklay Mountains in Raccoon City, the remaining S.T.A.R.S members flee to the Umbrella HQ's in Europe to carry-out investigations of rumours of the creation of the G-Virus ( a far more powerful variation of the T-Virus which caused the zombie outbreak ). Arriving in the zombie infested city that was once Raccoon City are rookie cop Leon S. Kennedy ( who has been newly recruited by the R.P.D ) and Claire Redfield ( who has arrived to track down her brother Chris ). The two ( who are the game's protagonists ) try to seek refuge in the police station, thinking it to be safe, but most of its officers have been eaten by or have become zombies.

    The only remaining survivors are Brian Irons, the corrupt Chief Of Police who was receiving bribes from Umbrella to hush up their experimental failures, officer Marvin Branagh who was attacked by zombies and reporter Ben Bertoculli, who has locked himself in a cell to stop himself from being eaten by the zombies. All of whom end up being killed.

    If playing Claire, you will meet a young girl named Sherry Birkin, whose mother and father, Annette and William Birkin, who both work for Umbrella and are both responsible for the virus outbreak. If playing Leon you will meet a young woman named Ada Wong, a spy whose boyfriend John formerly worked for Umbrella and who was sent in to obtain data regarding the G-Virus. The trouble starts when when William Birkin injects himself with the G-Virus after spies tried to steal his creation from him. As a result, he became a deadly malformed creature. Your aim is much as before, battle your way through a plethora of dangerous creatures and difficult puzzles and booby traps and make it out alive.

    Like I said earlier, 'Resident Evil 2' does not have the same shock impact as the first game but all the same is a marvellous game playing experience. Some new monsters are brought in here such as the licker ( a skinless creature with sharp claws and a piercing tongue ), Mr. X ( a variant of Tyrant who only appears in the second half of the game ), an over-sized alligator as well as an over-sized moth. The scripting and voice-acting here is not quite as sloppy as the first game but is still pretty cringe-worthy ( such as the scene in which Leon over-dramatically cries Ada's name when he thinks she has died on him ). There is also a hidden game which can be unlocked entitled 'The Fourth Survivor' which follows Umbrella's attempts to secure the G-Virus sample.

    The success of 'Resident Evil 2' also prompted a third game in 1999 entitled 'Resident Evil 3: Nemesis', which had Jill Valentine from the first game as the protagonist. 'Nemesis' in my view was the best of the three games made thus far and in my view would have made a fitting finale to the series however Capcom took it into their heads to devise a fourth game in 2000 entitled 'Resident Evil: Survivor'. Gameplayers yawned.

    Apparently a remake of 'Resident Evil 2' is in the offing, with updated graphics, new voice acting and more puzzles. If it will be as good as the remake of the first game, I cannot wait.    … Expand

    Resident Evil 2 takes place within the police headquarters in Raccoon City. You play as Leon or Claire and each playable character (as well as different difficulty levels) introduces some changes to the gameplay resulting in a game with great replay value. It is one of the rare games I have played through within almost a 24-hour period, because the gameplay was so tight and no part of it felt like it’s there just to prolong the playtime.

    I know the remake is great, but you should not skip the original second title if you are into Resident Evil series. I suggest Classic Rebirth version as it’s a comprehensive patch to the PC port, making it at least as good as its best console ports.

    Resident Evil 2 is arguably better than the original. If the first game was "Night of the Living Dead", than this sequel is "Dawn of the Dead". It's everything RE 1 was, but on a much bigger scale. There is more action, more cinematics, two playable characters and four different endings. This is one of the best games in the series. I would give it a 9.3 out of 10.

It is in general a more of the same approach survival horror but bigger and better. The story is set a few weeks after the events Resident Evil 1. The S.T.A.R.S team had returned but no superior believed their story. They were discredited, disbanded and shut down. Meanwhile other events started and spiral into Raccoon City becoming a death zone infested with monstrosities. You chose again between 2 playable characters. There is Claire Redfield who is the sister of Chris Redfield from Resident Evil 1. She visits Raccoon City for find her brother who disappeared without a trace. Then there is Leon S. Kennedy who is a rookie cop and this is his first day. They say the first day in a job is a nightmare but they have not seen what Leon has to endure;-). Depending on which character you chose the game is different. There are difference in the story, weapons, NPCs and exploration. A full playtrough is playing the story for both characters. For clarification: This means there are different routes and 4 playtroughs to see everything. Hope the following example helps: If you start with Claire you get Claire A and then Leon B (Scenario 1). If you started wit Leon you get Leon A and Claire B (Scenario 2). It was a remarkable idea and great experience back then. The story has again great B-movie flair and is quite enjoyable. The feeling of dread is excellent in this game. The side characters work well be it the mysterious Ada Wong, the innocent Sherry or chief of police Brian Irons. Gameplay wise it is solid survival horror Resident Evil style. You have to find an escape while dealing with scare ammunition, solving puzzles and manage a limited inventory space. Again you can only save in save rooms with ink ribbons that are limited and must be found. This mechanic might anger some people but intensifies the experiences. You must make harsh decision like avoiding enemies or use ammunition with the risk of being hurt. The puzzles itself are mostly standard like finding the right item and use it at the right place with a few other riddles. The tank controls are back and became a staple for the series. With tank control it means left and right rotate the characters and do not move them in the direction. You have to rotate and then move. I hate this but accepted it for Resident Evil. Technically the game improved a lot. The graphics were leagues better and the FMV were remarkable for its time. I think I give a few tips here: As by Resident Evil standard mixing herbs works well like for example a red and green one. There is a facility where you can lock in and having 2 user may give the second character that locked in something good. You can reload in the item menu while no time passes outside. Lastly save your stronger weapons or better said the ammunition for bosses or though enemies. Back to the review. Overall this was a great sequel and cemented the status of the Resident Evil franchise. I think it is still worth playing but there is also the excellent remake. May not hold up enough compared to modern standards.… Expand

Or rather, it was already a phenomena long before the release; that big think the original Biohazard game had been just couple years prior, and the hype surrounding its bigger and badder sequel was off the scale. While the game eventually got a handful of revisions and design changes before the final version, the game we ultimately got was no short of a masterpiece.

    I assume everyone's already familiar with the premise of Resident Evil:
    Something bizarre has gone terribly wrong in a remote town of Raccoon City, and the streets are now swarmed by undead creatures. The survival-horror gameplay resembles the adventure games of the old quite a bit, revolving around exploration of certain major locations (in a semi non-linear manner), finding key items and supplies, reading notes to piece together the story, and solving puzzles in order to access new areas and challenges. There's a limited inventory space you need to plan and adjust once in a while, and saving is handled in specified safe-rooms, using consumable items you need to hunt down from the world (Ink-ribbons). There are no auto-saves.

    Coming on two discs, one per each of the game's playable characters, Leon and Claire, RE2 expanded and enhanced upon the RE1's two campaigns idea by making both of the character's stories overlap, and even interact. Depending on which of the two you decided to start with, the first character would be placed into an "A route", where as continuing the game after the credits with the second disc would show the "B route" from the second character's perspective. These routes also have a handful of spots where choices made during A affect things in B, dubbed the "Zapping system".
    This meant that you got essentially four different versions of the game's campaign, with a couple minor adjustments you could try out on top, greatly enhancing the replay value further. And then you have various unlockables and bonus mini-games as an extra carrot!

    The audio-visual presentation is still drop-dead gorgeous and atmospheric, even after all these years. The pre-rendered world of Raccoon city is highly detailed and cleverly presented you via changing cinematic camera-angles, that alone can tell a tale and form a certain mood. The sound-design further helps craft this sad scene of a zombie apocalypse, with the echoing, pitiful moans of the walking corpses being especially haunting. The voice-acting was also a major leap from the original RE's hilarious dialog, further helping to take the story seriously.

    Even in 2020, I still rate the 1998's classic RE2 above its more recent "remake". I was quite saddened by Capcom's decision to cut out so much content, while also apparently appealing to the more casual player base, thus removing or watering down what I'd consider essential survival-horror traits (ie. limited saves, no check-points, lack of UI and hints, plenty of replay value...).    … Expand

    The legacy of Resident Evil 2 cannot be understated. It is the benchmark that most survival horror games are measured against, it serves as the basis of the current canonicity of the Resident Evil franchise. It spawned countless games, spin-offs, comics, soundtracks and audio dramas. It remains to this day, one of the best games ever made.

    A scientist working on the G-Virus, injects the sample into himself in order to stop him dying.
    Roams the cop station after his daughter wanting to impregnate her with G embryos. Pretty haunting and disturbing in it's self. Oh and he can rival NEMESIS in his persistence.

The environment and the enemies have this amazing horror atmosphere and also I really liked every character. Because of the localization or the acting or even that the story is not that good, at times, it feels a little cliche but it's OK, speaking of characters my least favorite must be Leon, is kinda boring but in the other hand, Ada and Claire are pretty cool. Also if you're into JoJo's Bizarre Adventure expect to encounter a lot of references.

    Overall is an amazing experience, like having a puzzle that by the end it just builds itself naturally. The rhythm of the game is also incredible I believe I played around 6 hours per character and I wanted more, the way that the 2 stories interact feels way ahead of its time (I believe they wanted to do a similar thing with RE 6).

    2 entirely different characters to choose from, yeah that is what is available to you at the start of Resident Evil 1, but Resident Evil 2 links the two players together into Scenario A and Scenario B.
    If played the conventional way (LEON A, then onto CLAIRE B) you will get the best experience from Resident Evil 2, however you are not limited to that way, you can Claire A and LEON B.

    For the more experienced gamer you are able to achieve an A rank (European & USA release only, JAPAN is far easier and gives an S rank)
    The rank is awarded to the player with the best play through of the scenario's, complete both play through's under 3 hours and you unlock goodies! you also get a 3rd scenario known as 4th survivor in which you control Hunk (the guy in the William Birkin FMV sequence who asks for the G-Virus sample where he injects himself)

    If you finish the game 6 times going from scenario to scenario you unlock TOFU which is a joke scenario where you play as a piece of Tofu.

    This sequel brought so much for us RE fans that it deserves number 1 spot in my mind.

    This game has excellent versions other than the original release too, and my personal fave being the Dreamcast release which is the PC port with the most features (if you exclude N64's EX files & gore changer)
    The Playstation got the Dual Shock edition which makes the Dual Shock controller compatible with RE2 and gives the rumble function, it also includes Extreme Battle mode.

    The DC release has an arrange mode like the Dual Shock edition except has Expert and Nightmare modes which are the hardest version of RE2 on any release bar the PC version (PC port to DC).

    For the best FMV quality you want either the Gamecube or PC SourceNext editions, however SN version is Japan only and the Gamecube version lacks game play features from the DC / PC releases.

The combat is pretty difficult, and most of the difficulty comes from awkward camera placement (the camera always looks at your character from some corner of the room and may not see the enemies even if they are close to your character.

    Zombies running amok in Raccoon City; more B-movie voice acting running amok on your speakers. Enough to fill two disks this time! [Feb 2003, p.97]

    The sequel elevates what was so great about the first one to a complete new level of terror.

    One of the most clever, crowd-pleasing, tense, dramatic, beautiful and playable games ever conceived.
