Resident Evil 3: Nemesis

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.

****/***** (Based upon comparison to other videogames)

Resident Evil 2 was everyone's favorite Resident Evil title at the time and with Resident Evil 3, it was some people personal favorite.

Positives: We get to play as one of the characters from the first game, Jill Valentine. The game still use tank controls but added something new that the pervious games doesn't have: dodging and 180 quick turn. These mechanics are use to help in some situations unlike the last 2 games, moving into a little more action. We finally get to explored the streets of Raccoon City where in Resident Evil 2 you explored the police station. While the game started to feel more action-toward, we we're quickly reminded that it's a horror game from one creature name Nemesis. Nemesis is seem like a clone of Mr. X but the difference is that he's smarter, have tentacles, and RUNS AFTER YOU! Nemesis mostly stalks you everywhere you go, which case me to get very paranoid throughout the game. You have a reloading tool which can be used with gunpowder to create ammo if you're running low. The more you use it, the better skilled you get. Also, the background environment looks way better than RE2, actually looks like a 3D game and it still holds up. There's a HD version on PC where you get a sharper look.

Negatives: Now honestly, I didn't really have anything negative to say but looking back at it, I do have issues with this. I did say the game seem to lean toward action which it's fine, but my problem is that the controls wasn't meant for a fast paced game like this and it's really a struggle. The amount of backtracking is such a pain. The previous has backtracking, but this one has the most out of all the 3 and it's a little annoying. We get to see new characters in this game which I liked, but they never showed up or even mentioned in future titles. Why introduced us to new people when we're not going to see them again. What a waste. I'm not going to be talking about the graphics or characters because this game came out on PS1.

Overall, this is my personal favorite Resident Evil game (I think I'm going to get hated for this but I think this game is better than RE2). It have some flaws but it's pretty enjoyable and addicting to play.

Anyone who liked Resident Evil & Resident Evil 2 will LOVE this game. It is the perfect third installment to the Playstation series of games. I especially like the part of the game where you actually get to shoot zombies as they rise out of the graveyard. Game lovers cannot go wrong playing this one. I can't say enough good things about these games!!!

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
