Please tell me you actually read the article before you commented...

@above i forgot the /s at the end ..dum&as* ....i thought you could understand the irony and humor behind it , after the release of the pathetic RE7

GamesMaster19822426d ago

All i'm trying to say is i hope the new Remake is not going down this route. Because no one has seen or heard any news about how the Remake will be. I personally hope they go the route of Resi 1 Remake and Resi 0 Remake.

....Capcom already Recreated Re2 into a first person shooter.

He's referring to the remake that they're currently working on, not the entirely different game that you linked.

found this old article from IGN for Darkside Chronicles
"The term "Darkside" refers to the series' horror roots. What started out as survival horror is now a straight action game in Resident Evil 5. The Darkside Chronicles is set during the events of Resident Evil 2, when the series' survival horror mechanics really hit its stride. The title is meant to convey that sense of the macabre.

Players will revisit the significant events of Resident Evil 2, but they'll have to blast through new areas, as well." http://www.ign.com/articles...

so that counts as a remake. This will be their second attempt to remaking the game again. don't forget remake also means - "to make (something) again or DIFFERENTLY." http://www.letmegooglethat....

anything is possible from the capcom remake.

It's a fan remake. Not the Capcom remake. For those who won't read the article.

There's no telling what the remake will be like from capcom. The literal definition for remake means - "to make (something) again or differently." so similar to the FFVII remake the RE2 remake can have gameplay changes as well.

DevilOgreFish2426d ago (Edited 2426d ago )

@ above. Right
"Remake" = Remade from scratch, also allows creation freedom.
"Re-Creation" = Created from scratch to be close to original as possible.
"Remaster" = Original enhanced.
"Replica" = 100% duplicate.

usually 90% of die hard fans go for "Re-Creation".

StormLegend2426d ago (Edited 2426d ago )

Dam for a min I thought this was the real thing from Capcom. I'm waiting day by day for news on Resident Evil 2. I hope it's at PSX event in Dec or at E3 2018

PhoenixUp2426d ago

When is that RE2 remake coming

Tsar4ever012426d ago

Not impressed, You can't even WALK AROUND. I just want to see how the real RE2 remake will be like, old school fixed cam, or RE4-to RE6 3rd person?

The prevalence of parrying: Why is it so popular?

Parrying has been creeping into more games, with almost every high-profile title of the last few years featuring it in some way.  Why?

phoenixwing36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

i understand the authors frustration i'm not the best at parrying in games. not that i can't complete a game that requires it but it is a definite harder thing for me than other kinds of techniques in games. which might be the main reason it's so heavily added in games nowadays. want to make your game challenging without having to do a lot of work? just add a parry boss. (what i mean by parry boss is a boss you have to beat by parrying such that their attacks will kill you otherwise)

Dudeson36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

I always think it's fine as long as such games also have the roll/dodge panic button. But I understand the will to parry, it seems so cinematic in a fight when you pull it off.

New Resident Evil 2 Remake Fixed Camera Mod Adds A Nostalgic Twist

A new mod brings the highly nostalgic fixed angles to the Resident Evil 2 remake, bringing the game closer to the original 1998 experience.

REmake vs. Resident Evil 2: Which Remake Template is Better?

REmake kept the original style adding new flavour and graphics, Resident Evil 2 is a complete modernisation. Which remake style is superior?

TheBrainZ67d ago

The GameCube remake was stunning for its time but the new modernisation efforts are breathing some much-needed life into the older games.

kevco3367d ago

I loved the GC remake back in 2000-whatever. But I tried replaying it recently and just couldn't deal with the door loading sequences.

Have I been spoilt by modern games? Probably.

Neonridr67d ago

tank controls just don't work in this day and age.

Babadook766d ago

I think Tomb Raider still works but RE I'm not sure.

Neonridr66d ago

@Babadook7 - imagine an updated Resident Evil or Tomb Raider with tank controls? you can't walk and turn at the same time. It would be ridiculous to play.

__y2jb67d ago

Both are fantastic but the old style controls and the half way house attempt to modernize them in remake both feel extremely dated now. Taking away your preference for the various settings and characters, the recent remakes are objectively better games.

rippermcrip67d ago

I think anyone voting for REmake is simply doing it out of nostalgia. No way a new young gamer is going to pick that over the new ones. I couldn't even get my son to play the game for more than an hour.

KyRo67d ago

Nope. REmake has a totally different vibe, feel and tension that the newer remakes can't replicate due to the camera angle. Yes the original fixed camera was used for technical reason but at the same time, they created a feeling of dread not knowing what was around the corner. You simply don't get that with a third person camera as great as the third person RE games are.

FYouDad66d ago

Depends what sort of experience you're looking for. If you enjoy the old fixed camera OG style then REmake is to me the pinnacle of the form. Incredible atmosphere, visual style and a fantastic revision of Resident Evil 1 with additions that feel completely seamless. Resident Evil 2 Remake in an excellent update (especially running with the IMO vastly superior original RE2 soundtrack) with the benefits of modern design but I still prefer the original game.. it didn't "overwrite" that experience in my mind the way REmake felt like it became the definitive RE1 experience.
