looks tasty just hope it compares favorably to the current survival horror craze atm.

Looks awful I mean seriously it just looks like the Gamecube Version, not being funny but we have moved on from that type of horror, I don't see this saving them, they would of been better putting all there developers on a Reboot of the Series, this is by all means a cash in on a once great horror game.

A good game is always a good game. Just because it's old doesn't mean people won't find enjoyment in it.

When you say "moved on from that type of horror" all you're talking about is viewing perspective and controls. Everything else about it (the theme, setting, etc) is all very much still relevant.

I think a lot of people forget that non HD games look really unfocused and pixelated on HD TVs. This game might not have had much of an upgrade from the Gamecube version, but I will just be happy to be able to play it on my HD TV without getting eye strain.

This could be a step in the right direction for them, in terms of going back to how survival horror was. They basically used the RE name to turn it into an action packed third person shooter.

Just look at the sales for RE6 compared to RE5. If that doesn't say something about the direction they are taking, I don't know what else to say about it.

RE4 was quite enjoyable, they incorporated that same scary feeling, being on your own, until you had to escort someone which just added more tension to the game. I played the demo of RE5 and didn't like it, felt less scary knowing I had a partner. I played the demo of RE6 and it just wasn't RE at all. I wasn't scared, I actually felt safe knowing I had other soldiers with me to protect me and knowing I could just keep picking ammo up from enemies.

Date_Um_Sage3499d ago

You forget, people started to get sick and tired of the old resident evil setup, so 4 was a breath of fresh air.

So the HD Remake could swing either way.
Hopefully gamers will put down dudebro shooter 500 to play this great game.

Inception3499d ago

Looks good to me and it quite different compare to the muddy GC version

"I don't see this saving them, they would of been better putting all there developers on a Reboot of the Series"

Reboot the series and change the story and iconic characters? Yeah right. I bet people like you still complaint too. "Grrr why this is sooo different compare to the original series?! capcom bring back the original series you dumb!", "Why Chris, Leon, Jill, Claire looks different?! I love the original one. Capcom they're dumb shit!" etc etc.

"this is by all means a cash in on a once great horror game"

If you think this is a cash in than don't buy it. Seriously, why people like you always thinks negative?

Personally i think this is good for people who never play Resident Evil. And if this remaster can gain a lot of new fans than there's a possibility RE 7 will be back to the original roots. It also good for old fans who never play it because they don't have GC / Wii.

I hope we gonna see Re: 0 remaster too .. and maybe even code veronica

Inception3499d ago

Also RE 2 & 3 remake in the style of RE 1 remake.

UnwanteDreamz3499d ago

Who is we? You got a mouse in your pocket? I hate when individuals have such huge egos they think they speak for everyone.

Revengeance3499d ago

You really think they were counting on this ONE game to save them?

If they had more PS4 games I would've taken advantage of this.

triverse2823d ago

I have to agree. I wish companies would do more porting of their previous digital only games such as Final Fight Double Impact over to the PS4. I want to get a Playstation but 3 seems on the way out and 4 is still too new for a lot of what I am interested in.

NapalmSanctuary2823d ago (Edited 2823d ago )

I wish they would port their full classic line brawlers from the 90s. Man, they made some good games back then.

triverse2823d ago

Napalm, check out their PSP Reloaded and Remixed collections. Great value for the money and full of their core retro games. I am not sure what consoles they released those collections on but I am sure PS3 and Xbox 360 were in there.

just-joe2823d ago

Or say if the PS4 was backwards compatible.

triverse2823d ago

Well, we know that is not going to happen anytime soon, at least not till people stop buying PS3 games and such. Sad. I wish it was backwards compatible too- I would buy a PS4 immediately if it worked with at least the digital stuff from the PS3.

DivineAssault 2823d ago

I wish Sony would get the licenses for all the classic arcade games from the 80s and 90s for the PS4.. I dont see why they wouldnt want to make money? I miss those brawlers like xmen, tmnt, etc.. So many great games people are forced to play on mame

triverse2823d ago

The problem with that idea is that a lot of those companies are now defunct and no one really knows who owns the rights to what game. Then in cases like X-Men, it is multiple companies involved (the engine would be Konami's while the actual X-Men license would be Marvel's) and sometimes none of the companies involved are interested in working together again for whatever reason.

I wish it would happen too though.

Resident Evil 20 years later: the many faces of Biohazard

Gamesradar:
Two decades. That’s 20 whole years of hoping this isn’t Chris’ blood. 7240 days of asking whether or not that dude actually just said “Jill sandwich.” 173,760 hours of Albert Wesker insisting on wearing sunglasses at night. You’re almost old enough to buy a bottle of whisky to go with those green herbs, Resident Evil. May you shamble for 20 more.

Resident Evil 1 PS1 =best version hands down ...Remake had some good elements but far from considered the pinnacle, not the same atmosphere/feeling, bad-hollywood copied elements (too dark, less colors, lame filters, Lisa) and Lisa story sheered negatively the plot to a completely new and poor minded direction

RosweeSon2991d ago

Yeah it was a truly great game probably why I feel in love with it on the Saturn played the directors cut on PlayStation 1, remake on GameCube, DS Version and got the ps4 version but not got round to it yet, timeless classic. Resident evil 2 was also pretty tight as well tho looked better and had a great story and setting but yeah 1 was the original and best, 2 was a close second tho. Downhill from there really, my mate came round and did number 3 in a day and I never went back to it Code Veronica on dreamcast was pretty cool and I did really enjoy 4 but it's completely different and things do need to change but how did it go from 4-5-6 to some other tripe. Same with dead space series 1 was great 2 was ok 3 was not played. Haha.
