by jermainewhittonAs of the moment, it is pretty hard to tell whether Capcom was able to surpass Resident Evil 2 with Resident Evil 3 remake for sales, given that the reception for the latest reimagining is mixed. Unlike 2019’s Resident Evil 2 , Resident Evil 3 remake is significantly different than its original counterpart. Sure, the major plot points of the game still remain true to some extent, but Capcom has been more liberal in switching events around this time. Many players welcomed the changes, but some hardcore fans were not happy with how the game turned out to be, and others criticized it for being too short and leaning too much on action-heavy eleme
Video game remakes are now more popular than they have ever been. With the ability to remake our favorite classic games, video game developers are bringing as many games as possible. Still, with so much untapped potential for video game remakes, it makes sense to compile this list. These are 10 games to remake after Resident Evi
While not part of the main series, technically, Resident Evil: Code Veronica might as well be considered part of the overall inclusion, given its deep story and fairly strong integration into the main chronology of the series’ lore and plot. Code Veronica presented one of the most unique and complex storylines in the Resident Evil series, which gave a ton of insight into another one of Umbrella Corporation’s founders, Edward Ashford, and his family lineage. Code Veronica took players on a grand adventure that spanned Umbrella’s Rockfort Prison island, all the way to their secret Antarctic facil
Remakes are all Flux Construct locations about revamping our favorite games from the previous decades. When we think of overdue video game remakes, one that comes to mind is Super Mario 64 . The best-selling game on the Nintendo 64 was a hit with fans everywh
It was one of the few SNES games with an extraordinary story, side quests, and items. For these reasons, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past has an enormous amount of replay value. It’s a game that not only deserves but demands a rem
Additionally, Resident Evil 3 lacks build-up and most of the time it feels like the game expects that its already players know Resident Evil 3’s story and characters from the original game. Moreover, every encounter with Nemesis is scripted , which takes away the element of surprise similar to Resident Evil 2’s Mr. X, and while Nemesis is definitely more terrifying than the original, his appearances are mostly predicta
An update one should certainly expect from a Resident Evil 4 remake is the refinement of the mobility and aiming mechanics. Resident Evil stuck with the tank-controls aiming technique for the longest time, but eventually evolved to allow for more freedom of movement without sacrificing the series’ evocative feeling of vulnerability. Resident Evil 2 Remake is a prime example of this , eschewing the stationary aiming design and allowing players to reposition ever so slowly. But on the flipside of this, the remake should be careful not to slip too far from the original game’s constraints. Resident Evil 4 ‘s weapon aiming had realistic weapon shake where every slight adjustment required the upmost precision. A Resident Evil 4 remake shouldn’t lose that aspect of its tactical gameplay, but should at least allow for more mobility in com
In the world of business, it’s all about the money. This rings true with video games, too! Although Code: Veronica was able to deliver within the 3 million unit range, it still doesn’t compare to the financial success of RE4 . But in all fairness, Resident Evil 4 was ported to too many devices to count on hand. Although estimates may vary, the number of units RE4 sold could fall somewhere within the 8-to-9 million range, if we include the downsized mobile ports, the latest Switch port, and the PC versions along with the earlier console versi
Resident Evil 4 represents a completely different challenge compared to the recently released remakes. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 both initially came out on the first PlayStation console way back in 1998 and 1999, respectively. Sony’s first console didn’t have the luxury of rendering highly complex character models or 3D environments, storing larger amounts of data, and any other modern conveniences games from the mid-to-late 2000s onward have. Resident Evil 4 came out for the GameCube in 2005, and though it wasn’t necessarily the first fully dimensional Resident Evil game, it was the first to take advantage of next-generation hardware to craft a highly detailed wo
The first Devil May Cry was already redone once in the form of a reboot, on Playstation 3, PC and Xbox 360 in 2013, but to many fans, the reboot missed the mark with too much reliance on platforming and the new version of Dante simply was not well received. It may be worth remaking the original iteration of the Devil May Cry once again, but without rebooting the character himself or the story, and maintaining Devil May Cry’s stylish characters from the original. Giving it the Resident Evil 2 Remake treatment by updating the overall gameplay engine and world, but keeping the characters and story intact, may be the better route to initiate a second Remake done ri
