Resident Evil 3 is a remake of the original Resident Evil 3: Nemesis released in 1999. It updates the story and gameplay for a modern audience. Like the Resident Evil 2 remake, the game uses over-the-shoulder third person point of view similar to Resident Evil 4 and later installments. Players will spend most of their time playing as Jill Valentine, although on some occasions they will assume the role of Carlos Oliveira, giving him more screen time as a deuteragonist. Read less

After playing the original game 3 times, I'm impressed with this game. It's even worse than when I last played it.

I honestly like this game a lot. Not as fun as RE2R, but still enjoyable. I definitely need to get better at dodging though. I think one thing I legitimately am not a fan of is the dialogue. There's a lot more random swearing and it comes across as a way to sound edgy.

That's Spooktober game #3! I actually had a blast with this one. While this is an easy last place of the REmake series thus far for me, the fact I haven't played it in the longest time of all of them made this playthrough way more fresh and enjoyable I think. Looking forward to writing a more thorough review when …

While this is an easy last place of the REmake series thus far for me, the fact I haven't played it in the longest time of all of them made this playthrough way more fresh and enjoyable I think. Looking forward to writing a more thorough review when I have the chance to jot down some of my complicated thoughts on this title.

It's pretty remarkable, I'll admit, that they managed to take games that were awful and on the side of unplayable and make them enjoyable through these remakes. Kudos.

Ugh, I know people complain its short but the game design for this game is worse than its source material. Didn't have a good time with it as soon as the game went to the hospital.

So my opinion of this game has diminished greatly since playing through it. It is a very well made game but there is just so little content here.

RE2 had a bunch more characters and a whole bad police chief sub-plot, it had two protagonists to chose from with unique aspects to each playthrough, it had more interesting areas to explore and even some late game plant monster creatures that were terrifying. RE3 just seems lazy. It copy/pastes RE2 and doesn’t do that well. I was really hoping there would be more of the city to explore or some new details about Racoon City that we hadn’t learned yet. The bad guy was boring, the good guys are boring, and there are no new, interesting locations. The 5 hour playtime was actually too long given what little game there is.

This game feels like such a re-hash of RE2, reusing some of the same locations (Sewer and Police Station), along with the reoccurring, stomping baddy. RE2 Remake did it much better by making Mr. X more interactive and ultimately terrifying. Nemesis is horrifying to look at but feels like a standard video game plot device. He shows up at various …

This game feels like such a re-hash of RE2, reusing some of the same locations (Sewer and Police Station), along with the reoccurring, stomping baddy. RE2 Remake did it much better by making Mr. X more interactive and ultimately terrifying. Nemesis is horrifying to look at but feels like a standard video game plot device. He shows up at various points for scripted moments. They are fun but more hollow.

That being said, I am enjoying RE3 Remake. I never played much of the original and the game has that horrible yet gorgeous zombie apocalypse aesthetic updated for modern graphics. It has the right amount of puzzles, hunting for items, and close calls with just enough shots to take down the zombies. Of course I say this having bought it on a Steam Sale.

Why the heck are zombies such bullet sponges in this game? You were already dead before I shot you 12 times in the face, just give up!
