Resident Evil 3: Nemesis

The graphics are great, the video sequences are even better and the puzzles are very good. This is a great new game. I liked the way that the zombies can now walk up and down stairs to get you. You'll never be bored with this game. There are always things to kill and puzzles to solve. Get this game, it's great!

I remember being pretty damn impressed when I first got this game (first one I'd actually ever picked up). Having played the others since, I can say that this is equal to RE2 (which is saying something, considering that was great), though Nemesis is the best boss of the original three as far as I'm concerned.

Pros: + Nemesis. One of the most unrelenting, scariest bosses in gaming. + Pretty strong cast of characters. + Genuinely scary, a lot of the time.

Cons: - Same premise as before, in many ways (not the most original game). - Same gameplay as before, too.

Hot off the wild success of the second installment of Resident Evil, one would think that another game starring Jill Valentine would be even better. Depending on who you talk to, you'll get varied responses, but of course, it's by far better than the first one.

You only get to play as one person through this crazy roller coaster ride, Jill Valentine ( Not counting the small part when you play as Carlos ), whereas in 'Rez' 2, you could play up to four different ways ( Claire A/B, Leon A/B ).

Yet another change is where the game takes place. The first game took place in a Mansion, the second one took place in well, a bunch of places ( Art Gallery-Turned Police Station, sewers, Umbrella lab, etc. ), and this time around, the entire City of Raccoon is your playground.

But they made up for the lack of multiple ways to play. Jill can earn up to five extra outfits ( 70's Disco, STARS, Meter Maid, Regina from Dino Crisis, and Leather bodysuit ), and the weapons have become far less exotic from Resident Evil 2, but there are a lot more of them, not to mention the ability to create new weapons from parts given from the downed Nemesis.

Oh yeah, Nemesis. Remember how many times Tyrant popped up during the B game of RE2? Remember how he usually caught you at the worst times? Guess what? Nemesis shows up even MORE times! ( I lost track around twelve ). He's certainly a persistent little bugger.

I don't find it scared me as often as the other games, but it's still fun to play over and over ( Is it because Jill's just eye candy? Maaaaaaaaybe. ), and ponder time and time again, just how the heck Jill can run around killing zombies in a miniskirt and a halter top? Perhaps the zombies caught her in the middle of a date.

Final Score - ****½ out of five.

This game just keeps on exceeding itself.

It thought Resident Evil 2 was good but this is just amazing. The game play is awsome and graphic and sound are one of the best I have seen on playstation 1.I cant wait to try out the new Resident Evil:code Veronica on playstation 2.

My advice to you is,go and buy all the Resident Evil games from number one and to Code Veronica to get the whole story,its only then you really can appreciate the game.You will be surprised how adictiv and scary this game really is.

9/10

The 2nd, although scary with alot of replay value, pretty much tried too much to be like the original. "Biohazard 3" also has replay value, you make decisions that affect the path your character takes. It is also alot scarier than any of the other Resident Evils ("Biohazards")

You play as Jill Valentine, the character from the original Resident Evil, in a game that is Half Prequel, Half Sequel. Half of the game takes place before Resident Evil 2, the other half takes place after Resident Evil 2.
