Cyberpunk, Last of Us 2, Dying Light, Doom, Persona and now RE3 all in early 2020.

First day purchase for me. I'm a big fan of the series which started my love for zombies way back in the 90s.

Thorpe did you ever get to play the RE2 remake?

And they're bundling in the Resistance 4v1 mp game that was supposed to be standalone :eek:


Capcom :applause:

Good to see PS4 going strong leading up to PS5 release

Hopefully we get some good titles for PS5 next holiday but I still might wait 6-12 months till I swoop one up

my 2014 ole boi still going strong and I have lots unplayed and backlogged

I did not. I actually just put it in over this past weekend. I intend to get going on it and have it beat in time for RE3.

So I did finally beat it last weekend, just the first time through with Claire. It's actually been so long that my memory of this game isn't very good. The first one burnt into my brain to the point where I could probably draw a schematic of the house pretty clearly. The second and third however I played through relatively quickly, I think in college while I was drinking and smoking pot, and while I loved them, my memory isn't as vivid.

I restarted as Leon and hopefully I'll make it through, but I'm a bit burnt out. The little I played so far it does run a little quicker knowing the map.

Such a great game. The remaster is done perfectly.

Shockingly I didn't chew up the map. I actually left the shock gun in the sewers getting lost up trying to get Sherry out of there.

Loved it as well, my only tiny complaint is that I felt it was a wee bit short for a $60 AAA title. Visually it is one of the best looking games and my personal fav in 2019

That's fair, but with the multiple versions of the game, it feels like they kind of make up for it.

This sounds good

I finally pre-ordered mine. I wanted to get some higher end edition, but nothing seemed to be coming. Feels like I'm gonna need something to do at home soon.

playable demo out now

The demo is great, I think RE2 + RE3 may be the best remakes ever. They made Jill even better in this than the '99 original imo. Capcom making insane photo realistic games with the RE engine

Also the 3D audio in this game is amazing, maybe the best use of 360 sound i've ever heard. I highly recommend playing this with good headphones, even with a good TV soundbar it's dramatically different

I wouldn't be surprised if RE3 makes a good run with CP2077 and TLOU 2 for game of the year.

So reviews are coming in and the general consensus is it's another hit by Capcom. Only real issue seems to be the length of the campaign. First play through can be done in 4-6 hours.

ugh :( 5 hour campaign is a deal breaker imo. RE2make was 8 hours and it felt a bit short

I get that it's a remake but technology has advanced so far in 20 years since the original, to warrant a $60 price tag I need minimum a good 10+ hrs for a day-1 purchase

multiple speed runs with the same NPC's/cutscenes don't cut that check

i'll wait for it to drop to $30-$40 in a couple months

ACG's reviews are usually spot on, I tend to lean with his opinions the most


But at the end of the day, games are all personal preference

Starting to look like this game originally could have been a DLC for RE2 rather than a full priced title, hence why it was released so quickly after RE2

Still has 8/10 reviews across the board. But yah a 6 hour single player is borderline DLC territory, Witcher 3 and Spiderman DLC's were longer. I bet RE3 drops in price quick

I'm disappointed to hear that Nemesis isn't used in the game like Mr X was in RE2. Missed opportunity.

I'll wait until it goes on sale too.

Ill hold off any opinions on that until I play, Mr. X at times became a nuisance solving puzzles and backtracking but still help ramp the difficulty. Not quite sure i'd want a want an even more OP Nemesis spawning everytime shots fired.

RE3 was always more action than survival compared to RE2, purisists of the original will be disappointed no matter what.

This will be a game that people feel ripped off at $60, yet become a "hidden gem" months down the road at $20-$30.

Bought it on sale and beat it in 10 hrs on the first playthrough, even checking every nook and cranny


Good game was cut far too short. 7.5/10


Not worth $30 imo, wait for it to hit $15-$20
