    (mild spoilers!)
    Resident Evil 3 is different to the original. It has a lot of missing content. In the beginning we didn't meet Mr Nemesis breaking though the wall in the original and the five minutes of cut scenes. That's what happens in the remake. you barley play in the first 10 minutes of the game because it's all cut scenes.
    It is a good remake in some ways, but the game is incredibly easy.

    I think the original RE3 is better than this game, but I don't think this game is bad. It's actually a great game but I have a few problems. This game has a very similar feel to RE2 Remake, which is good. The dodging is also a lot better than the original RE3. I really don't know why there was so much cut content, like the clock tower and the choice mechanic.

    Definitely nowhere near as bad as people want you to think it is. Sure its not as good as the RE 2 remake but its hard to top that and the original wasn't better than two to begin with. That being said there are some things it still has going for it. The graphics are almost photorealistic, if you prefer an action heavy RE this is good for you.

This is maybe a six hour game to just complete and maybe 12 to 13 to 100% it. That does not justify a 60 dollar price tag. WAIT FOR A SALE.… Expand

Until the clock tower fight, the game was 10/10 for me, but I feel disapointed after that because no clock tower, but I was glad Hospital was bigger and even better. Then no park and no dead factory which was replaced with laboratory, but they made it fit the plot. So I liked it. In other words, excelent game but bad remake. I gave it a 8 bc I think it was fun and I have replayed it a lot of times… Expand

I even liked Carlos, I used to despise him in the original but now I think its a good character.
    Almost every character in this games was improved from the original: Much better Brad, much better Carlos, much better Mikhail, much better Nicholai. Jill was improved too. Only Nemesis was left behind and thats why this game is not as good as it should be.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. An excellent game and proof that a survival/horror classic can be successfully adapted into a horror/action game. The sound, score, graphics, controls and balance of difficulty culminated in a very immersive experience. I do have two major gripes and one minor one. First and most egregious is the cutting of content; particularly enemy types and locations. If I had to pick one scene that absolutely had to be restored, it is the Graveyard and grave digger worm. Where could they have put that scene? Right after the cutscene where Jill crashes on the train. She would come out of the bunker and into the graveyard which leads to the park which is directly connected to the bridge leading to the second Nemesis fight. i did like how they combined the hospital and the waste disposal facility. Really smart. The other gripe is I wish the at least the opening act was more open to exploration. There was a lot of potential there. If you lingered too long in an area, Nemesis would come for you. The last complaint is the end cutscene where Carlos flies Jill out of the city. They could have at least put Barry Burton as the pilot on a higher difficulty level. Oh and Carlos’s hair style. He looks like a sheepdog that needs to be groomed. Overall, it is a great game that could have been perfect.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Resident Evil 3 remake is a great game, not only because it has great graphics but beucase it was a really short game. Yes I know that most of the people doesn't like short games, they think that a game, to be good and worth it, it must have 60 hours of gameplay. But no, a game must be fun and If a game is short and You can play it, reserval times. What is the problem with that? I finished it in a couple of morning and I think not only the gamplay was good but the soundtrack too.

    Graphics: best graphics for a RE game. I think Nemesis redesign was not the right choise. I like more the Nemesis design for the old game.

    Sound: Wonderfull sound track. Cool voices.

    Gameplay: Very funny because it is short, you can finish the game several times if you want and try to master it like the old one.

I hate how little space you have here in resident evil 3.. sure you can find upgrade pouches, but it just never feels like enough space, especially when new guns can take up multiple spaces and even quest items take up spaces which really just shoulnt be a thing in any game… though it does add to the scarcity feeling, do I ant this ammo or do I want to keep my healing items… its just as a map cleaner, its annoying..
    Overall though I enjoyed Resident Evil 3… if youre going into it expecting more resident evil 2, you wont get it..youll be disappointed in its length and more action feel..resident evil 3 like every other resident evil its its own experience and I for one like that.. Resident Evil Resistance also comes with resident evil 3, but ill be reviewing that mode separately.

    Historia corta, narrativa interesante y muy conectado a su predecesor, apartado grafico maravilloso al igual que la banda sonora, los escenaroos son un poco ajustados y puede llegar a ser muy lineal. Para el mundo del speedrun es ideal. Pero tiene un talon de aquiles, no supera al original RE3: Nemesis, eso le pasa gram factura entre los fans de la saga.

    Overall this game could be seen as a missed opportunity to flesh out what was — in 1999 — a quick but quirky followup to the more substantial RE3. But from the insane locations and intriguing characters to the stunning looks and satisfying action, this is a stellar game in its own right, and that can't be ignored.

    Parts of the game, such as the opening in Jill’s apartment, look positively cinematic — so textured and atmospheric one can almost imagine that video games will draw near the end of the uncanny valley in our lifetimes. If and when that should occur, I hope that Capcom will have found another horror template than zombies.

    After an explosive start, Resident Evil 3 on Xbox One quickly falls into a familiar rhythm. Having a Tyrant hunt you down is now the new norm for Resident Evil, but the most feared of all will always be Nemesis. He quickly disappears into the cutscenes however, without as much of an impact as you would perhaps hope. Thankfully though, there are enough environment and enemy variations crammed into this short experience that you never get a chance to settle down and acquaint yourself with any one enemy type, and as a survival horror game that is exactly how you want to feel.
