Guess it's because people are seriously burnt out on Capcom nowadays (seriously, they are on the verge of becoming Deader Than Disco).

At least the HD remake will remind us of a time when RE was free from this:

To be fair, it's only a touched-up port of the Gamecube remake. They're not even re-rendering the backgrounds.

Its alright guys, I've got RE 2 downpat nicely now. Heck I even know it takes 2 acid shells on Super Mr X to summon Ada.

I believe they are re-doing the backgrounds.I recall Capcom saying once the main reason games like R Emake,RE 0 and the first Onimusha games for never getting HD re-releases so far were(besides the licensing issues with the celebrities in Onimusha's case,as they can't freely use characters like Samanosuke,Jubei and Jacques.Hell,Dawn of Dreams is the only game they can re-release in HD without having to make deals with anybody else) because they used pre-rendered backgrounds and those require an extra work(read: re-do them from zero) to properly display them in HD without looking bad.

Think about it:Why was Code Veronica the only old-school RE to get a HD re-release?Because those used real-time graphics(notice how the CGI cutscenes still didn't look that good in the HD port.Usually,any HD re-release of an old game that used pre-rendered videos as cutscenes you can tell they don't look that good.See God of War Collection).

Only now Capcom decided that re-release an acclaimed game on a non-Nintendo console would worth the effort.I hope they don't forget about RE 0

I agree. Hopefully if this does well they will follow up with RE Zero HD.

it will do well.Even at its worst,RE still sells millions.The fact that,for the first time,the RE game that is often regarded as one of the franchise's best games ever will finally have a multiplatform release will give it an extra hype

I have REMake on the Wii, but I never got round to actually finishing it.

Now, when do we get PC ports of 2, 3 and Zero?

I only ever beat R Emake with Chris on Easy.

as for 2 and 3, they were already on PC. What they haven't got though, are Steam ports, which could be easy and would make Capcom a decent enough buck. I'd certainly buy it. Zero hasn't been on PC though but hey.

Alright, show of hands, how many of you guys hate the Resident Evil movies?

(Millions of hands are raised.)

…ok, that was an obvious question.

Well, I've got bad news and good news:

[up]Guess it's because people are seriously burnt out on Capcom nowadays (seriously, they are on the verge of becoming Deader Than Disco).

to expand on this, I can't think of a single thing capcom has done recently that i really care about or want to play outside of dragon's dogma, asura's wrath, and the ace attorney games.

with that said, i'm looking forward to this. i've never played R Emake, and i'm glad this is coming to pc because i probably won't own an xbox one or ps4 for years.

Ridiculous that the remake isn't coming to Wii U

It's ridiculous they aren't packaging it with Zero. I just remembered they packaged R Emake and Zero together as "Archives" for the Wii. For their RE HD ports, they did CVX and 4 together as well as the Chronicles games.

So why not R Emake and RE 0? Fuck you Capcom.

So, Capcom is getting really, unashamedly barefaced about the sexualization & objectification of the new female character. It's honestly unbelieveable that, in a time where the debate over gender and gaming is white-hot, they pull a stunt like this. What I love most is how in each screenshot, they go out of their way to hide her face so you don't identify with her, just that she has boobs and a butt.

Because I stopped caring that much about Resident Evil after the LAST time Capcom laughed in the face of social progress, i.e. RE 5. It just raises discussion that Capcom is either very insulated from the Western world, or they have bad timing.

New info on Revelations 2.

http://www.push-start.co.uk/all/platform/pc/resident-evil-revelations-2-exciting-new-details-revealed-first-screenshots-claire-redfield-burton-more/

Apparently the lead in the new one will be Claire Redfield, and she will have support from Moira Burton, Barry's daughter.

Apparently Moira will be a non-combatant focusing on support, leave most if not all, the fighting up to Claire.

Claire looks...like she's gone through some things...I hope she lapshades the fact that she's on ANOTHER island.

more importantly,Moira will have to proof she's indeed Barry's daughter:by making references to his memetic lines.If I don't hear her talking about sandwiches,masters of unlocking and powerful weapons against living things,then that means she's a fake and the game will be ruined forever...

#323: Sep 6th 2014 at 5:43:30 PM

[up]So she'll make herb sandwiches instead of the joints/self inflicted mace/tic tacs from previous games? wink

Anyway, I just replayed the remake for the first time in a while. 'Twas fun. I scared the crap out of myself in the caves when I thought I was cleverly running around Lisa... only to barrel straight into her. surprised And I'm going to be properly playing RE 2 for the first time, shortly.

Right now, I'm playing as Claire, though, and got my ass handed to me pretty hard out on the streets, but I got much better once I reached the police station. I even managed to kill the first licker. cool
