Game Informer - Resident Evil Code: Veronica X HD Review

Tim turi writes: I love the sense of accomplishment that comes with completing a challenging classic survival horror game. This HD version of Resident Evil: Code Veronica X rewards players armed with patience, resourcefulness, and plenty of ink ribbons with a harrowing but memorable trek through the series’ heyday. If you’ve got the grit, try downloading this affordable piece of Capcom history on PSN for PS3 and Games on Demand for 360.

Does anyone know if this version is the one where the zombies can follow you through doors? That was so disappointing after playing the Dreamcast version and buying the PS2 version and the zombies just stupidly stand outside the door when you leave the room!

I'm on the fence now, but the room transfarring zombies might push me over!

Pozzle4625d ago (Edited 4625d ago )

Since it's Code Veronica X (and not just Code Veronica), I'm guessing it's a HD port of the PS2 version. Not the Dreamcast version. :(

With that being said, the PS2 version did have some extra scenes that the Dreamcast version didn't have, so that's a plus. :)

DaTruth4625d ago (Edited 4625d ago )

Thanks and bubbles!

Now I'm thinking this might be for the better. RE games tend to give you limited ammo and health packs, so being able to run away is a necessary part of survivor horror genre!

I recently played Dino Crisis again and it was annoying when you had limited ammo and the dinosaurs keep busting in the doors and you can't get necessary items!

8.5? Really

It's a shitty port with shitty controls still in tact and Capcom wants $20 for each game.

I say it's a rushed rip off

Castlevania and Resident Evil are always good

Neonridr971d ago

the old stuff here vastly outshines the newer stuff, lol

How about scraping Games with Gold and reducing both XB Live Gold and XB GamePass Ultimate by $5 per month.

I don't mind the games with gold, but in reality it has been a long time since I really cared about what came on games with gold.

John_McClane970d ago

Getting rid of the gold paywall entirely works for me.

@John_McClane
I believe in paying for services you use. You look at the console vendors and they run a network that tracks your gamer profile, does your games saves, and provides an environment for multi-player. The servers and infrastructure to do this is expensive and has to be paid for somehow.

I like a direct payment method rather then hiding the costs behind something else. No matter what they have to find a way to make money off the investments they make. No company does stuff for free. Now with PSNow and XB GamePass I think both should just drop the free games (that aren't really free because they allocate Gold and Plus money to buy those games) I think it is time the the free games are dropped and the subscriptions drop in price as well.

I loved Aaero. I bought it on PS4 a few years ago and got hooked (some great tunes in there). I will happily double dip and try and grab a few achievements blitzing through the earlier difficulties again.

darthv72971d ago

I havent played Code Veronica since the Dreamcast. I assume this is that but in HD?

Yui_Suzumiya970d ago

Yeah, it had an HD remaster during the PS3 / 360 era

babadivad970d ago

Same. That game was long AF!!

Damn, I just bought code name Veronica. Lol. I was eyeballing the Castlevania game due to the recent Tokyo Gameshow Sale, but I guess I’ll just get it here instead.

Resident Evil and Castlevania crossover Video game and Anime series confirmed!

VersusDMC970d ago

Nope. That would make no sense...but there is going to be a Devil May Cry and Castlevania anime crossover.

So anything is possible.

lxeasy1920d ago

This is absolutely amazing! To this day Lost Planet is still my all time favorite online game. Love the Lost planet franchise!

ActualWhiteMan1920d ago

Glad I kept this one. Great game, very underrated.

Movefasta19931920d ago

lost planet 1 and 2 are gems imo

spicelicka1920d ago

2 is the one with 4 player co-op right? That was amazing! Being able to fight giant monsters in co-op was so awesome. It was like Monster hunter with guns.

Movefasta19931919d ago

it had an underrated pvp mode too
