    Probably the hardest game in main saga, mostly because of super small inventory, way too much backtracking and barely enough ammo and herbs / aid sprays. Sometimes pretty annoying game. Otherwise very good.

    Resident Evil Zero HD Remaster is easily the most unique of the old-school RE games and one that should be experienced if you're a fan of the series. GL HF!

    Negative-Low Score is from the Sony-Haters. Dont mind of that!

    Solo una lavada de cara para el juego. Aunque se agradece traerlo desde la gamecube. No es de los mejores resident evil pero para los amantes de los RE clasicos es una joya.

    Evidemment les lieux à caméra fixe comme dans un jeu d'aventure tout naze sont une pure hérésie dans le cas qui nous occupe et un choix de "design" absolument lamentable, rendant le jeu à la limite de l'injouable. Pour sauvegarder, il faut trouver une machine à écrire (mort de rire) et l'inventaire est un modèle de non-sens comme tout le reste de ce pauvre jeu de merde.

    On est pas plus étonné que cela, car nous savons depuis longtemps que si les Japonais ont beaucoup de qualités, les jeux vidéo, ça ils ne savent pas faire. Ils n'ont jamais su et ce n'est pas près de changer comme le démontre le recyclage désespéré de cette vieille daubasse.

    This is a unique RE installment. It's a single player game featuring cooperative mechanics. You're given the task to control two characters in tandem. This sounds like fun, but can be very frustrating. Basically, this series prequel would play better if it was 2 player co-op. Managing inventory is a pain since Rebecca and Billy can only carry six items at a time. As a result, you'reThis is a unique RE installment. It's a single player game featuring cooperative mechanics. You're given the task to control two characters in tandem. This sounds like fun, but can be very frustrating. Basically, this series prequel would play better if it was 2 player co-op. Managing inventory is a pain since Rebecca and Billy can only carry six items at a time. As a result, you're constantly having to decide which thing is best to carry. Additionally, each character have their own unique abilities that really should belong to them both. For instance, only Billy can move heavy objects and only Rebecca can mix herbs. It can lead to moments of frustration if you decide to split them apart. I would highly advise to always have them stick together. Despite its flaws, the game is good. The HD remaster is gorgeous, even more so than the HD version of the remake. I would rate this with an 8.3 out of 10. Expand

    Absolutely atrocious. It's a tiresome experience full of frustrations. I finally ran into a boss fight way late into the game, where I just gave up after a few tries because I wasn't ready for it one bit. I wasn't going to do miles of backtracking either to get all the supplies that I had to leave behind. I used one room where I kept all my stuff on the floor and I passed through itAbsolutely atrocious. It's a tiresome experience full of frustrations. I finally ran into a boss fight way late into the game, where I just gave up after a few tries because I wasn't ready for it one bit. I wasn't going to do miles of backtracking either to get all the supplies that I had to leave behind. I used one room where I kept all my stuff on the floor and I passed through it frequently enough. Eventually I had to travel away from that area. Then I went so far that I wasn't going to go back for them anymore and was hoping the game would somehow bring the items along, just like after the train part early in the game. It didn't happen. Then on top of all that, one character got taken away from me and inventory space got slashed in half too. To sum it all up: Jesus Christ, what were they thinking! Expand

    I found this game to be very entertaining and worth every dollar I spent on it. Challenging but not too hard either at least for me, and I don’t even consider myself to be that good at games.

    If you're willing to adjust to the game's age (which Capcom fails to hide) Resident Evil Zero is a decent horror purchase for the patient and methodical gamer. If you're a long-time fan of the series, you'll enjoy what Zero represents. Besides cashing in, I like to think that Capcom is gauging interest in the classic formula and in that respect, Resident Evil Zero is a history lesson worth bringing back from the grave.

    Resident Evil 0 was the weakest game in the series when it was originally released in 2002 and still is in 2016. [03/2016, p.43]

    The question of why Capcom even bothered with this HD remaster does beg to be raised, because while it might look like a modern release it certainly doesn’t play like one. It’s time that might have been better spent on something else.
