The Tyrant primed to top Mr X is actually a colossal disappointment. The cherry on top is that spiders and the Grave Digger boss fight aren't actually in the game at all.Īnd then there's Nemesis. It's heartbreaking to see such vital areas from the original experience left by the wayside, especially so when the title is already rather short in the first place. The courtyard outside of it sets the scene for a boss battle, but you never actually go inside. The park and the Dead Factory no longer exist while the Clock Tower makes only the briefest of appearances. A triumph of a setting, that's for sure.Ĭapcom has done a fantastic job of expanding upon and bringing life to a selection of classic locations, but the title's biggest talking point is the places that aren't featured. Hardcore fans will even spot references and Easter eggs here and there, helping to keep the location feel like a tribute to the classic 1999 trek towards the Raccoon Police Department. It's so much more open, allowing you to take in the uncertain chaos of the place while scrounging for bullets and Green Herbs. You'll have the chance to fully explore a selection of its streets and interiors to your heart's content as you backtrack for items, take in the vibrant, neon shops that have been left deserted, and eventually make your way to the Subway Substation. Raccoon City once again plays host to the outbreak, this time expanded to the point where it feels like a real-life location. Miss Valentine controls flawlessly, making for intense, exciting action that never lets up. Resident Evil 2's mechanics may not have been enough to deal with these undead hordes, and so the updated action is more than justified. Jill's assortment of weapons are all responsive and truly pack a punch - even more so when upgrades scattered throughout the various environments are taken into account. Complementing that fact is gunplay which feels better than ever. It can still be classed as survival horror, although you're going to find yourself in the thick of combat much more often. Resident Evil 3 is a much more action-oriented experience than its predecessor, complete with a dodge mechanic to get you out of trouble, a surplus amount of ammunition, and more zombies than ever to eliminate. And thankfully, that contrast remains intact to this day. Kennedy's plan to rid the world of Umbrella. Jill Valentine's attempted escape of the T-Virus infested city has always differed from Leon S. However, it continues to linger in the shadow of Resident Evil 2. Resident Evil 3 is absolutely more than worth playing. The impact of that will depend on your experience with the original game, but for those who return to Raccoon City more often than not, it'll be tough not to come away disappointed. Resident Evil 3 has used the PSone classic as inspiration rather than a rigid structure it largely needs to stick to, dramatically changing the narrative and even cutting some important locations and enemies entirely. When Capcom claimed it would be making drastic, sweeping adjustments to its second remake in as many years, the Japanese developer most certainly wasn't kidding.
