Resident Evil 2

I became a RE fan back in 2017 when RE7 came out and I love the game. After that, I started to learn history about the Resident Evil series about its story, reception, and development and I fall in love with it. The only RE games I played were 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Back in 2002 after RE1 remake was made, fans wanted a remake of RE2. In 2015, the game was announce in development and was finally released 4 years later and it was worth it.

Capcom have done it again and blown us all away! The Resident Evil 2 Remake had me on the edge of my seat the whole time! This game was tense, yet is different enough from the original Resident Evil 2 back in 1998 to be its own thing and give familiar players with some different surprises and references to the old games. Leon and Claire are some of the best video game characters of all-time, and the amount of detail in both the graphics and sound is fantastic! Not being fixed camera angles did not bother me at all, and let's face it the old style play is a bit dated nowadays. Nevertheless, this game is amazing and we already have a 2019 Game Of The Year candidate in January. Don't spoil the game for yourself and play it!

Words cannot describe how much this game was worth the wait. Hats off and a standing ovation to the creators and staff of this game! Absolutely out of this world! WHAT A GAME!! Totally lives up to the original. Overwhelmed with the added nostalgia. Made me proud to be a Resident Evil fan for 23+ years. Deserves lots of awards! Well done!

What an amazing survival horror game, i think it's just as good as re4 if not better, the atmosphere, music, characters and it actually feels like a resident evil game and it has zombies unlike 7, it doesn't focus on over the top action unlike 5 and 6, the franchise never really recovered post RE4 and to me RE2R is the only game that goes that far when it comes to the best in the series and it really improved on the original. Also use the original soundtrack, it makes the game way more terrifying than it already is.

10/10 a lot of people will say 7 but to me this was the true return to form for the series and it's easily the best survival horror game of the 8th generation.

Why can I only give this 10 stars? I would give it 100 if I could!

Well done to Capcom, this is how a remake should be done! Resident Evil was the first game I ever played and RE2 was the best game in the entire series for me. The original game was stunning for its time but this remake came at the perfect time and boy did Capcom go all out. Resident Evil 2 remake is a survival horror masterpiece.

The sense of nostalgia is definitely there as it brings back all of the great memories from the original, and sets an unbelievably high standard for video game remakes. The attention to detail that the creators have put into this game is stunning and gives you a real sense of being scared and Resident Evil 2 not only looks great, it plays well, and it forces you into a series of dark encounters that are a total rush.

This is definitely not a game for the faint hearted but a game everyone should own. A stunningly beautiful game and definitely a contender for GOTY!!
