    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.

    Ran out of ammo 2 hours into the game and can't progress because of it. Absolutely awfully designed game, which I'll be trading in.

    Score: 9.5/10

    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 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.

    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.

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

Also a few more models would've been nice. And a slightly more complex injury system, right now it's -1 on most hits, out of 3, with a blue herb I think you can take twice that. I'm not talking about a major rework, with field surgeries, but some minor improvements, like for example regular zombies varying in damage from 0.5 to 2, depending on your movement speed, distance, the speed of the zombie itself. Very retro and old school fans will definitely love it, same with new fans, but it feels very dated and could've been done better.

    Overall, definitely worth getting.

Играть в Resident Evil 2 действительно страшненько, ибо все блуждания происходят в полутьме, из которой ты тусклым светом фонарика вылавливаешь зомбимэнов весьма непривлекательной наружности, норовящих тебя попробовать на вкус. Чувство тревоги нарастает, когда появляется тиран, который будет держать тебя в постоянном тонусе, а ещё будут те самые зомби доберманы, попасть в которых будет задачей не из легких, и неубиваемые слепые мутанты и ещё много всего такого из-за чего устоять на месте будет крайне затруднительно. Для того чтобы завалить даже самого обычного зомбаря нужно минимум 2-3 хэдшота, но это не гарантия, что он потом не встанет и вам не придётся повторять данную экзекуцию. В данном случае конечно дробовик решает, но патронов на всё крайне мало, поэтому целиться нужно тщательнее. Игра здорово совмещает экшн составляющую и квестовую часть - загадки разгадывать, выстраивать опасные маршруты до цели, безопасных тут практически нет, очень интересно. Этот постоянный цейтнот в принятии решений, мрак и ужас окружающий вас и стремящийся каждую секунду нарушить ваше спокойствие заваливает адреналином с горкой!

Another pro, is that this game has a really good physic of shooting, for example you shoot at zombie "Matilda" (Leon's first gun), and the marks of a bullet stays on it or even when you shoot with a shotgun the whole body part can fall off, and that looked cool and a bit gross! The last pro I want to talk about is that the police office is the best map in this game! But there's also one con which is probably not a big con. So this con is that nobody in the game can't jump, but I think that'd be unfair if main character just jumped over and went to some place! The last con is that the character can't normally run fast like run away from Mr. X, even though he's not that fast, but he can kill after his 2 hits!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Resident Evil 2 Remake

    First of all: I did not play the originals. I played through the remake of Resident Evil 2 in 18 hours and 37 minutes and achieved 560 gamerscore.

    story

    It's about the G-Virus and you discover more and more information about the G-Virus while playing. It's not a great storytelling now, but for me it is sufficient as a framework in the context of the game. I found it very nice that you can e.g. In Claire's campaign, the sequence with the child gave the whole game a new twist (orphanage). Here I would have liked a little more depth (more details about the experiments, the chief, etc.).

    I found another aspect really strong at the end of the first round of the game:
    you get a teaser for what to expect in the second round.

    Gameplay

    The game offers you two different campaigns and thus a change of perspective. The playthroughs with Leon and Claire feel at least sufficiently different when viewed separately. But I would have liked a more organic link in a remake (e.g. you had to open the doors with the chess pieces in the sewer system in the second pass, etc. and you wonder how Leon or Claire actually get to the end area). Apart from that, finding the way in the police station was very good, you have a lot to discover here. In terms of feeling, the second run is much more difficult.

    Then it gets exciting with Mr. X (nickname?), So Tyrant. He brings a pressure situation into play and his very specific gait contributes to the atmosphere. I liked it a lot and by skilfully evading and listening you can get around him very well.

    Furthermore, I found the bosses actually made cool: In the second campaign, I was still expecting Tyrant, but obviously he was actually almost split in two and killed. The professor's recurring mutation didn't bother me and was challenging enough (in the end, with Claire, I ran out of grenade launcher ammunition). I found the resolution of the teaser at the end very nice and it became cinematic again spectacular.

    Again, I found resource management negative. It's part of the game, but sometimes it just sucks to go back again and again because you have too much with you. You really have to plan ahead here, but that only interrupted my flow of the game. Also, some weapons are just too bad, despite various mods, and feel almost unusable (some pistols, I also didn't like the stun gun at all).

    Graphics / presentation / atmosphere

    The Resident Evil 2 Remake looks really good. It's awesome graphics and also creates a very threatening, gloomy atmosphere, but compared to Part 7 it doesn't bother me that much. It's just different.

    The game has a few cut scenes that fit well into the gameplay and the character portrayals are successful, only the facial expressions (e.g. with the scientist) are involuntarily funny, as well as the synchronization of Leon, which seems a bit inappropriate.

    Sound-wise, a good job was done and the right tone was always found.

    Conclusion

    Resident Evil 2 Remake does a lot of things right, but for me it doesn't knock Resident Evil 7 off the throne. In part 7 I liked the whole atmosphere better overall. I found it nice that you get a lot of activation options (skins, challenges, concept graphics, etc.). A total of 8/10 G viruses.

    The hype for this game was really high before and some time after this game released. A remake of one of the most loved titles of the Resident evil franchise was a great new for fans and people who wanted to get introduced to the saga. Gamers welcomed the game really well and was a success. However, despite the undeniable quality of the game, it has been overrated.

A remake of one of the most loved titles of the Resident evil franchise was a great new for fans and people who wanted to get introduced to the saga. Gamers welcomed the game really well and was a success. However, despite the undeniable quality of the game, it has been overrated.

    When we pass the game for the first time, we feel gratefully surprised and with a sensation of satisfaction that makes us to want more and more, and luckily there is actually more; a second storyline and more hours of play are waiting for us. However, is beyond this point were the things start not to fix at all. The map is almost the same and there are many parts of the script that do not respect the story we played first. So basically there is a notorious conflict between the events of both character's narratives.

    To sum up, Resident Evil 2 Remake is a refreshing and upgraded view of the original version of the game. Graphics are stunning, sounds are great and the gameplay is fun and gripping. However, the fact that developers recycled almost completely the game for the second run makes us feel that the rest of the time we can spend playing the game is just more of the same, creating a feeling of repetition and confusion.

    To me, the 2019 remake of Resident Evil 2 is almost the perfect Resi game. The fixed camera angles and tank controls of the first 2 main entries were never exactly my cup of tea but at the same time, the action orientated premise of the 3 main games after that seemed to defeat the purpose of the series entirely. Enter the best of both worlds.

    To me, the 2019 remake of Resident Evil 2 is almost the perfect Resi game. The fixed camera angles and tank controls of the first 2 main entries were never exactly my cup of tea but at the same time, the action orientated premise of the 3 main games after that seemed to defeat the purpose of the series entirely. Enter the best of both worlds.

    Resident Evil 2 is a third person survival horror game, complete with puzzles, low resources and most importantly..

    Fear. Genuine fear.

    Playing through this game the first time was nerve wracking from the first cutscene to credits. Granted, I'm easily scared and have anxiety issues but I was not alone here in feeling legitimately scared while playing, not wanting to leave the safe rooms or progress into any unknown territory. It was all... an experience to say the least. One thing I will say that isn't in its favor is that upon subsequent playthroughs, that fear factor goes away quite a bit.

    The story is more or less a retelling of the original with one glaring issue. Leon and Claire's stories very seldom overlap in terms of interaction, but very often overlap in terms of location. There are times when Leon and Claire must have been in the exact same spot at the exact same time but the game fails to acknowledge this. This was my biggest problem with the game, the lack of consistency in continuity between both player's campaigns. This is especially bothering when you consider the original game didn't have this issue.

    Despite that glaring problem, the game is fantastic. It was my vote for game of the year 2019 until Death Stranding came around and I'm very excited to play the upcoming remake of Resident Evil 3.
    I beat this game in October of 2019.

For one, ammo is so scarce in this game, you barely have enough to survive, and this game can be extremely annoying when all you can do is run away, or waste all your ammo. Another thing is the limping mechanic, when Leon or Clair is down on HP, they start limping, and move slower.... What the hell... This mechanic was so stupid and made surviving on low HP a pain. The boss fights are also extremely infuriating, with small arenas with huge bosses, coupled with limping, made them hell. Oh, and the sewers can go to hell, nothing else to say about that. Safe to say, while this game is good, be ready for some painful encounters. Expand

Lograron hacer más terrorífico esta entrega. Un punto destacable para Capcom, es el hecho de que no cobraron DLC's, y estos fueron gratuitos, lo que se agradece enormemente. El resto: es muy respetuoso de la historia original; tanto la música, los sonidos, como también la narrativa original. Expand

    This was an enjoyable game that paid a nice homage to the epic 1998 original, which was arguable the greatest game ever to come out on console. The story of Leon and Claire is the game that took us out of the mansion and revealed the massive scale of Umbrella across Raccoon City. But did it live up to the hype?

    Pros- High Gore content Still has the soul of the original Zombie

    Pros-
    High Gore content
    Still has the soul of the original
    Zombie animation/combat
    Puzzles are fun
    Combat, upgrades and types of weapons
    New design of police station
    Save system, map, inventory all work great

    Cons-
    Mr X is a cheap and annoying method of delivering scare
    Each campaign is very small and repetitive
    No street/alley exploring in main campaign (come on! Where is Raccoon City?)
    Where are the huge F***ing Spiders?
    Or any new type of enemies?
    Lack of variety between the campaigns

    I did enjoy the ride but I did find it slightly missing the sweet spot of modern gaming.
    Sure it was close, oh so close, but just missed being epic.

    Fun Factor- 8 out of ten

    A remake that's faithful to the original, Resident Evil 2 is everything I ever wanted in a Resident Evil game. A lot of what made Resident Evil 7 successful (dark, claustrophobic environments, gore effects, lighting etc.) all show up in Resident Evil 2 on account of both games running on the RE Engine.

    It balances the survival elements beautifully. Always making resources scarce enough

    It balances the survival elements beautifully. Always making resources scarce enough that you have to be smart about it's usage, but ensuring that you have enough just to squeak by.

    The combat is very much like Resident Evil 4, with butt-clenchingly tense moments, high action combat scenes and glorious gore effects.

    Overall, Resident Evil 2 is an absolute must-play for both Resident Evil fans and general survival horror fans.

Leon runs way too slow and it is a very coward person, he sure does not look or act like he is a trained cop, I can run faster in real life (and I am lazy). Zombies and enemies in general are way too strong, 15-20 bullets to kill a zombie and 5 shotgun shells + 5 pistol bullets ro kill a damn licker... pathetic and unfair. The pistol looks like a toy gun, like you are shooting a bb gun at best. Zombies won't even die with a shotgun blast. This game is not hard, it is just way too annoying. The over the shoulder is awful, poorly implemented, the fixed camera angles and tank controls were amazing and they fit so well with a true survival horor game. of course this one has barely nothing of survival horror. Puzzles are a joke, way too easy to figure out, the game commits the worst sin that is to insult and destroy the legacy of the original re 2, spitting in the face to old and real RE 2 fans. Expand

    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.
