How Resident Evil 3 Remake Changed Jill Valentine

Remaking Resident Evil 4 poses an interesting opportunity for Capcom, an undertaking very different in comparison to remaking the classic Resident Evil titles. Considering the technical gap from the original PlayStation to current-gen consoles is gigantic, Resident Evil 2 and 3 received a lot of love for their respective reimaginings. The fourth Resident Evil game is still widely considered a relatively modern entry in the series, despite showing its age in several aspects. Capcom's development team could strike the perfect balance of new and old in giving one of the best Resident Evil titles a proper reimagin


However, over recent years, fans have grown a little disheartened with Capcom’s general output. Some have criticized the company for resting on its laurels, and it’s easy to see where that observation comes from. After all flux construct locations, Capcom seems to have kept a large focus on remastered versions of old games, rather than fully embracing the new hardware at its dispo


Rumors are flying that Capcom is planning to update this title with a remake. The popularity and reception of Resident Evil 2 and 3 , as well as Resident Evil 7 , has brought this on. Should they go ahead with it, or is this one not even worth touching? Check out our reasons for why this move makes sense, and also why Resident Evil 4 should be left al


For RE4 , even though the graphics aren't as sharp as today's, it still relatively holds up. The characters are easy to make out, and the settings aren't terrible. It also just received a 2016 HD remaster. Does this game really need the pol


Let's just be real here. While the RE2 and RE3 remakes are well-done and are an improvement on the originals, one of the reasons they are highly regarded does have to do with nostalgia. The feeling you get when you play a game from long ago can make you have strong feelings for


Even when the dust had settled, however, Street Fighter 5 drew plenty of well-aimed criticism for the content on show. The title’s story mode proved to be extremely short, with even Capcom itself admitting that it could be beaten easily within 1-2 hours . Fans of the franchise immediately took the story mode to task, with one user even able to get his 6-month old baby to beat the ga


While it's hard to say how this version of Borderlands would have fared, the released game's uniqueness certainly helped it stand apart in the sea of drab shooters that dominated last generation. So, one has to imagine it may not have drawn quite the same amount of attention as it did if it retained the style the developers originally had in m


Another aspect of Resident Evil 4 that was innovative for the time was its sense of scale, despite its linearity. Leon runs through rural Spanish villages, mineral mines, gothic castles, modern military installations, etc. Even in its 15-20 hour runtime, players travel to such an interesting variety of locales that the game is perceived to be much grander than it is. Even now, as the game creeps up to 15 years old, the world of Resident Evil 4 has a sense of sprawl balanced perfectly with its actual size. Now with modern technology allowing for higher graphical fidelity, a remake could see that scale expanded with larger highly detailed environments further beyond what the GameCube was capable of. Invoking that sense of scale that was so impactful in the original game would be perfect for a Resident Evil 4 rem


When you look at what was possible with Mr. X and Nemesis, it is pretty cool to think about how stellar the AI would be in a new RE4 game that also heavily depends on sinister and relatively intelligent enem


Code: Veronica embodies the survival horror franchise in ways RE4 never will. Beginning with Resident Evil 7 , Capcom has shown a survival horror resurgence with main title RE games. But, of course, the action-adventure RE games have also sold provably we


There's a good chance that Capcom is paying close attention to this outcry and may met demands sooner than later. But who knows how long that will take? Fans of the series were asking for a RE2 remake for years before finally getting their wish. And even if Code: Veronica isn't the very next remake, the idea will likely still be on the table for the future. In other words, there is still h


In 2005, Capcom went on to help once again redefine the survival horror genre with Resident Evil 4 . This game solidified the Resident Evil franchise as legendary and inspired many copycats. It almost feels too good to be improved upon, which contributes to the current discuss


However, many fans are loyal to the brand just because of the survival horror aesthetic. Not saying they would turn their back on Capcom if they don't meet their demands. They would just adore the company even more with a Code: Veronica rem


If the rumors are true, we could be seeing an RE8 game —and follow-up to RE7 —in 2021. This is earlier than what was initially predicted or discussed. Considering that the new consoles are set to hit next year as well, if RE4 was to come out for those systems as well, then it could take attention away from Capcom's newest Resident Evil stor
