Just six years after Resident Evil released on PS1, 3D Game Design had evolved so much that Capcom was able to completely reinvent the Survival Horror classic from the ground up for the modern era! Resident Evil Remake, or REmake for short, has stood tall as one of the most popular games in the series and one of the best remakes to ever grace the world of gaming. After having played the original several times, how do I feel about REmake? That’s what we are here to answer today!

Yeah RE0 is not a fun game it is legit pain. But Billy is a cool character and that is really the only good part about the game lmao. And great review RE remake is one of the best horror games ever!!!
I dont think 60 frames per second makes a better game. But what DOES impress me the most is the level of absurd detail in REmake. For example run out of ammo and get close to the camera like in a save room with a close up overhead view. You can see the slide of the pistol locked back and the actual inside of the barrel modeled. I was blown away.
Haven't watched yet, but on the subject of voice acting, the original is terrible while the remake is good… But I feel like the original voice acting is something that we will go back to more often because of how iconically bad it is.
The RE1 remake was so much better than the remakes of 2 and 3 they did such a good job of making the RE1 remake without changing to much and adding just enough to make it better with 2 and 3 they basically made them completely different games from the originals the remakes of 2 and 3 are good but the 1 remake is still better
My lone complaint from this REmake is that they removed the part from Chris's campaign where Rebecca poisons Plant 42 and then Chris has to fight it and finish it off.. I want to be able to kill Plant 42 as Chris.
Boyy, how you gonna play REmake with skippable door transitions. Man, I’m a crotchety millennial, cause I think the low resolution serves the game’s aesthetic better than the crisp textures do. Oh god 👴🏼.
PlayStation 2 was awesome
REmake is one of the greatest gaming experiences
Re remake doesn't need 60fps
I think a lot of people confuse having a problem with tank vs fixed cameras cause everyone would have the same complaints with 4,5 and to a lesser extent 6
I'd like to point out that the original RE1 was not "unintentionally" hilarious. The game was absolutely supposed to play like a campy horror B-movie, not quite a parody but not fully taking itself seriously. One might call it bad on purpose. This doesn't negate any of the points you've made in comparing them, but it's some noteworthy context
Those door animations are Resident Evil!
I now wait for J's Reviews to do this Original vs Remake format with both Resident Evil 2, 3 and 4; and hopefully for other video game franchises as well.
Resident evil remake was the first resi I ever played ever.. and boy was that a freakin nightmare. However after finishing it, it instantly became one of my favorite games I’ve ever played next to the first last of us and street fighter 2.
What makes Chris OP was the flash Grenade. Instant head shot.
1000% the reason REmake sold poorly was because it was on Nintendo's awful purple lunchbox. I wanted to play REmake so badly when it came out but after buying the N64 and amassing a total of ONE game the entire time I owned it (Goldeneye), I wasn't about to repeat the same mistake with the lunchbox.
I love the remake but im such a sucker for the og game and its unique atmosphere
My man. Love your videos and also this one. But damn, you got an appointment or something else important to attend to? Because you went super sonic speed talking haha. Had to check twice if I got the vid on 2x
Someone should have told the writers of FFVII remake to not rewrite the story. Deepen the lore but don’t change what makes the story THE story
It's pretty dope that RE claims arguably the best pure remake AND best reimagining of a game, in the same series, and canonically one game apart.
That's the reason why RE the remake didn't sale cause of the console Gamecube
Almost all of the RE games have texture packs to improve the visuals. Outside of the PC versions, the GC versions are heavily mod-able through Dolphin emulator.
I prefer the original Resident Evil
