On Xbox 360 both the single-player & online game modes featured some of the most impressive visuals seen on the console, but on PS3 something went rather wrong. From the moment you set foot on the first snow-covered level the frame rate hits a major snag and it feels like you're walking in treacle. This sluggish frame rate continues throughout the game and it really hurts what is otherwise a visual treat.
At times during a few of the boss fights the game became barely playable, with the frame rate dropping to completely unacceptable levels. Environments look a little bland when you move indoors, but the snow covered landscape and more urban environments from later in the game look phenomenal, and the enemies and bosses look and move with a quality that would have only been possible in pre-rendered movies a few years ago.
Audio is also pretty hit and miss, with what can only be described as 'wooden' voice acting, but background music and sound effects are spot on, and the surround sound even helps you out now and again by pinpointing Akrid locations. The mandatory 10 minute installation before you can play the game is also a little disappointing. It didn't really bother me, but if you want to get straight into the game, you've been warned.
Resident Evil 2 2019 launches in a few short weeks and it looks, and plays, amazing. Capcom has taken the classic and renowned title and not only modernized the visuals but added new content to keep the experience fresh for veterans who played the original. But there are some games that deserve the same treatment from Capcom. Here are 5 games from Capcom that deserve the Resident Evil 2 2019 treatment.
Remasters are still popular so... yeah.
I personally like when there are remastered compilations. More than just remaking one game but to take a couple (or more) in a series and remake them as one nice compilation. Viewtiful Joe comes to mind. to have a full remake of all the games on one disc would be sweet.
I know many want to see Powerstone come back (as do I) but i'd go even deeper into their vault and bring back darkstalkers, cyberbots or even project justice / rival schools combo.
well for me there's
dino crisis
clock tower
haunting ground
resident evil 3
the whole onimusha series (except 4)
chaos legion
crimson tears
ring of red
Imagine Clock Tower done in a similar style to RE7 in first person with VR support.. that would be so so damn good.
This is a horrible list!
There are a load of titles far more deserving of a remaster than these picks. Seriously ! Dead Rising, Lost Planet and Dragons Dogma aren't even old games and have had recent sequels already!
Top of the list should be Dino Crisis,
I'll accept Resi 3 because I'm hoping that happens.
Clock tower and Haunting Ground are good choices too, It would be nice to be able to get them for a non extortionate rate.
Shadow of Rome was an amazing game and I'd love a remaster or new entry but I genuinely don't think they'd get away with it today unless it was massively toned down
Resident Evil 3 yes,Dino Crisis games?Yes.Onimusha 2 hell yes.never got to play Powerstone properly so yeah i would love to see it remade,others on that list i just dont care about.
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition was released in Europe in 2007 as an Xbox 360 exclusive, though it would later come to other systems as well. Aside from the regular version, a Collector’s Edition was made available, which includes an art book and a steel case, and early access to free multiplayer maps, as well as a soundtrack cd.
JP: Not every game receives massive critical acclaim. Yet, there are some titles that stick with you despite their lack of success. For me, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition is one of my most memorable multiplayer experiences of this generation.
another multi-plat game running and looking better on the xbox 360. i'm wondering what the sony hopeful will say this time "capcom is lazy too".
360 code translated to PS3 code = bad port.
That's a proven fact.
Ps3 code translated to 360 code = both high quality.
Capcom just didn't feel like investing the time to re-write their engine to use the PS3's streaming capability and SPUs properly.
They just dumped a large 4 or 5GB cache onto the HDD and most likely forced the game to run on the main Power PC core + 1 spu.
There's games on PS3 that are more demanding and that calculate far more at once than lost planet, and look and run far better. (Killzone 2, Uncharted, Gran Turismo 5, etc.)
EDIT**
I never spoke of Lair or Heavenly Sword.
Yeah, lair sucked, but heavenly sword most certainly did NOT.
Metacritic gave Heavenly Sword a score of 7.9, and a user score of 8.7 (325 votes) which is highly respectable.
Oh dear. Crap game gets crap port.
Considering the time they've spent on it its hard to see how they mucked it up so completely..
Never mind. Having played it and not bothered finishing it on 360, its not a big problem for PS3 only owners to miss this one. I just hope that not too many people buy it and find out how gimped it is till after they've spent the cash!
lol
Just watch these 2 trailers:

The game looks impressive, more alive, more cgi-like + frame rate like being near 60 fps.
