    One of the best games of all time. Great package overall, beautiful graphics, great optimisation, so much content for a very low price. This is what survival horror is all about!

    Good enough graphics and story, nice gamplay and smooth 60 fps. Still I find it worse in every aspect than RE VII and VIII.

    In my opinion this is the best Resident Evil game. I've played this game so many times I pretty much have the entire map memorized in my head. The game plays so great, and it's always fun to go back and play through the game again. I do have a few issues about some cut enemies, but those are only minor nitpicks.

    I've played only a few games from the Resident Evil franchise, but out of all of them, this game is definitely one of the best. I haven't played the original version of this game, however, from what I seen this remake perfectly adipates what the original did and builds on it.

If you like the horror genre of video games, or you played the original and loved its aspects of horror, then you'll love this game. I personally wasn't too scared of some of the things that happened in this game, but I can promise that it'll catch you off guard at least once or twice. Not only that, but there are other ways this game scares the player than just traditional jump scares or cutscenes. The game as to be expected plays nice, and the UI in this game is wonderful. If I were to say some cons about the game in general, is that it runs at 30fps. Personally, if a game can run at a base or above 30fps I'm fine, but I know people can get crazy about the framerates. Another thing to say, is while playing this game your Xbox will sound a little louder than it should. Other than those two minor issues, there isn't anymore. If I were to try and find anymore issues, it would really just be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Overall, a great game with a bunch of content, and some really good horror aspects.… Expand

    An easy, tense, and solid action game. Doesn't takes itself seriously, isn't full of politics, and is generally as enjoyable as video games get. It is very very ugly on Xbox one X though, with blurry, muddy textures and it is pretty short and the writing is pretty poor and the world is not especially pretty or immersive. But the audio design, puzzles and general flow is fantastic.

    Resident Evil 2 is easily one of the best action games known to man. The atmosphere of this game features exactly the right amount of horror to not be too scary to play, but also not to disappoint. The story is exciting and interesting, and the gameplay feels real and makes you feel like you are a part of the game.

    I played the original Resident Evil 2 game a few times thanks to a relative, but with the Remake, I loved it. It's the same game, just with new and improved areas to explore, new face upgrades, old references from the original game, and total hell getting S+ in Hardcore. I prefer the normal difficulty better to continue discovering more details of this gem.

    Великолепная игра которая смогла не только меня влюбить в себя, но и влюбить во всю свою вселенную. Resident Evil 2 я прошёл на данный момент написания обзора 21 раз и что же я хочу сказать? Я люблю эту игру. Я выбил все ачивки и даже прошёл два сценария на s+ ранг, а знаете почему я это сделал? Потому что я получаю от неё удовольствие и постоянно возвращаюсь в неё всё снова и снова.Великолепная игра которая смогла не только меня влюбить в себя, но и влюбить во всю свою вселенную.

Als ich gehört habe das Capcom ein Remake davon machen will, war ich sehr gespannt. Über die Story muss ich ja nicht viel erzählen, die meisten Zocker kennen das Game und viel hat sich nicht geändert. So sehr ich mich auf das Spiel gefreut habe, dennoch habe ich mir bis jetzt Zeit gelassen um es zu Spielen, wieso weiß ich selbst nicht. Es verbindet das Survival-Horror-Feeling der Originalspiele mit der aktualisierten Over-the-Shoulder-Perspektive der modernen Spiele. Für Fans sei gesagt das Spiel fühlt sich Frisch an, es ist kein 1zu1 Remake, es ist fast ein Ganz neues Spiel geworden, und es macht einfach Spaß erneut in die Welt von Resident Evil 2 einzutauchen und soviel neues zu entdecken. Ton und Sprachausgabe sind großartig, ich habe es auf Deutsch gespielt, die Grafik sieht atemberaubend aus, besonders die tollen Details und das Leveldesign sind Hervorragend, auch die Story und Atmosphäre des Spiels sind einfach der Wahnsinn. Die Steuerung funktioniert hervorragend und die Kamera ist bis auf 2–3 Stellen auch nicht zu bemängeln, der Schwierigkeitsgrad ist erhöht worden, so können hier schon Standard Zombies gefährlich werden. Meine Erwartungen waren sehr hoch und die wurden sogar noch übertroffen. Capcom hat mehr als einen hervorragenden Job gemacht. Alles an diesem Remake wurde mit viel Liebe und Mühe fertiggestellt und sie haben das Original sehr gewürdigt und es gleichzeitig frisch gemacht.… Expand

    Tense action, mixed with moments of horror, and elements of survival-horror. There are some legitimately scary segments in this game that reminded me of the old days of playing the first Dead Space as a high school kid alone in my room. Mr. X is done perfectly, the voice acting is good, and the graphics are great. This is a tense game and they really nailed the atmosphere.

    This Resident Evil 2 doesn't replace or overwrite its source game in the way 2002's Resident Evil did, but that doesn't mean it's a bad remake. Rather, it's one of the best the medium has seen; amplifying the underlying horror and replayability at the core of the franchise. Capcom has outdone itself in an era where they're not hurting for successes. Not for the faint of heart, but a survival horror masterpiece nonetheless, Resident Evil 2 sets a standard for good horror, good action, and damn good game design.
