Biohazard Ø

This is the worst main Resident Evil game, mostly due to the fact that the gameplay was tiresome and old at this point. The characters are very slow, you aim the guns very slow, and this game has the worst boss in Resident Evil history, a giant flying bat that has smaller bats flying around it. The aiming is all messed up and it is almost impossible to hit this thing. You end up aiming at the other bats.

Anyways, the graphics are great and the story is cool but the gameplay is just old and way too clunky, even more clunky than REmake1. Anyways, just go read about this game on Wikipedia and go play REmake 2 & 3 instead, or play the Original remastered version.

This is not the best resident evil game, but it is a entertaining one. The game is pretty tense and effective with what it does have. It is pretty good.

A re-review of the HD version on the PS3/PS4.

Is used to really like RE0. The train, the darkness, the quiet atmosphere...I liked it more than RE1. It was one of the first games I played on my GameCube way back in 2004 and I was excited to play through it again remastered in HD. Disappointment has overwhelmed me. First of all, the reformatted aspect ratio doesn't work too well. The game was not designed for 1.78:1 and it is so cramped that important details are often cropped out of the frame.

And the controls...don't get me started. They are a nightmare! This is a game that frequently relies on fast escapes or quick-witted agility, but with the constantly switching camera angles the coordination and orientation causes havoc with the controller. I wanted to grind the controller into dust in my hands.

Why is the game so slow? The RE format of collecting items to open new areas to collect new items to open new areas is just far too tedious in 2017. I know that the "door opening" clips are a staple of the early RE series, but they were really just made to cleverly disguise the new areas being loaded. There is no reason for them to still be present on the PS3 it slows down the tension and becomes very boring very quickly.

The story of the game itself is good enough. Set right before the events of the first game it details the events leading up to the incident at Spencer Mansion. You take control of Rebecca Chambers (who had a small role in RE1) and escaped convict Billy Coen, switching between them as you wish. The AI of the characters is so poor, however, that they will constantly be getting in your way. A zombie after you? Don't expect Rebecca to move just slightly to the left to let you escape!

Once you finish the main game you will unlock Wesker Mode and Leech Hunter, a mini-game where you run around the training facility collecting little charms. Win this and you'll unlock more weapons with infinity ammo. Sadly, the Platinum is far too difficult. There are 48 trophies and some of them require you to finish the WHOLE GAME without saving or using a healing item. Even on easy mode with the infinite ammo and powerful weapons you will find this nearly impossible.

Older games remastered in HD are usually quite good, but the concept of RE0 was tailored for lesser systems and it should have been given a bigger overhaul.

This is the second RE game that I have played (the first one being the REmake), and I found this one to be better than it in every way, except story, where they are equal. One of the things that I like is that there are many more cut-scenes in this game and they look very well done, and do not stutter like the ones in the REmake. The in-game graphics are good to, and they add to the creepiness of the game, along with the eerie music and scary new monsters. It is much more fun to play since you control two characters at once and I like the fact that you can drop items in this game, since I found the item boxes in the REmake very frustrating since I kept having to run back to them in order to dump all my useless items. Although the game is slightly shorter than the REmake, it is still more fun to play and it has a lot of replay value. I was a bit disappointed with the extras though, since the only good things that you can unlock that are cool are the new weapons. This game also has more weapons and monsters than the REmake, but not as many extras. Overall, it is better than the REmake, and a very good game, and I can't wait for Resident Evil 4.

Resident Evil 0 takes place BEFORE the mansion incident that occurred. You play as both Rebecca Chambers, and convict Billy Cohen. Billy is sentenced to death, and is being transported through a train. Meanwhile, Rebecca's helicopter crashes, and most of her team disappears. She gets on the train, only to find out that every passenger, and conductor has been transformed into flesh eating zombies. Rebecca and Billy have to team up in order to stay alive. Resident Evil 0 delivers a wide variety of game play. This latest installment to the series has new game play. Unlike the previous Resident Evil games, you can control two people, and switch between characters whenever you fell that it is necessary. The controls take some time to get used to, but still, Resident Evil 0 has better controls than the remake of Resident Evil 1. For example, it is easier to control your character, the button set-up is back the way it used to be, and it seems to be easier to play. Resident Evil 0 lacks the interactivity that the remake had, but to make up for that, it has gotten rid of all the jaggies that the remake had. Still, the graphics seem to be the best featured on a console so far. Each little detail in the environment is noticeable, which gives the game more of a disturbing tone. Resident Evil 0 is more scarier than the last one, because most of the monsters look more eerie. A new feature in Resident Evil 0, is the ability to drop items whenever you need to, this feature has taken the place of the old item boxes in the previous games. The game play is solid, and addicting, even though it seems to be the same old thing. This is one of those Resident Evil games where you just cant put down the controller. The difficulty level seems to have risen, now the puzzles seem to be harder, yet tedious. The sound effects have not bogged down in quality, character movements sound perfect. More enemies have been introduced into the game, such as mutant leeches, monkeys, scorpions, centipedes, and frogs. Overall, Resident Evil 0 proves to be the best Resident Evil game to date.
