Biohazard

In the city of Raccoon City, strange murders have occurred with reports of families and some folks getting eaten by creatures. The Raccoon Police City department sends out the S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team of Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Albert Wesker, Barry Burton and formerly Joseph Frost are sent to investigate a large mansion in the outskirts of the city. But what they don't know is that inside the place there's dangers galore with zombies, giant snakes and other weird monsters just waiting to have their blood as they must complete their investigation of what is behind the weird killings and the creatures.

A wonderful and absolutely brilliant remake that manages to be better then the original! it stays clear of the cheesy dialog that some fans of the series thought the original game's dialog was stiff that it needed to be improvised but you still can play as either Jill or Chris. It also improves on the original's live-action opening with actors who are just plain bad. The graphics and game-play are really outstanding as it gives us a bigger look at the Mansion and even some brand new puzzles. Here in this new version there's even a Nemesis-esquire female creature named Lisa whom is a true abomination of a creature beyond anything in your nightmares.

The music score for this remake is terrific as it used a remixed version of the original soundtrack score. The game also uses new plot element that enhances the original in every way and it's one hell of a scary and gory video game that will scare the crap out of you.

This game is a solid winner all the ways! strongly a must play.

When I first heard of Resident Evil, my mom would not let me play it because I was not old enough to. When I turned 20, I wanted to try it out, and my mom said, "Okay, go ahead, but you won't like it."

Instead, I was wrong about not liking it. The minute I started playing the game, I was instantly hooked to it. When I started playing the beginning of it, It felt so intense, that the zombie scene when you first encountered a zombie had me put in a shock.

I was always afraid because I would be attacked if I was in a safe room in the game and all you have to do is survive. That's the main goal of this game.

This game is an excellent game you want to play. I have a Nintendo Wii and this game should be added to my collection. Play Resident Evil, period.

The original Resident Evil for Playstation in 1996 was, and still remains classic. Now, pretty much every aspect of the old game has been updated, redone and improved into this very well-made and highly entertaining game.

The graphics are some of the best out there for GameCube, mainly because of the static camera angles (which are annoying to some, but helps keep the scare factor and dark atmosphere). Different kinds of shadows dance along the walls, water drips onto the ground, and characters move both fluidly and realistically.

The gameplay has been improved also; there is now these so-called "defense items", which can prove to be very useful in deadly situations. The controls remain mainly the same, for the better, or for the worse. There are also different types of puzzles in the game, some of which will have you thinking for a while. It's also a pretty long game. It took me about 10 hours to complete the first time through.

If you played the original Resident Evil back in '96 and are curious about this game, don't hesitate to buy it just because "you've already seen it". The experience is totally different, with plenty of new rooms added, some edited, and a plethora of all-new cutscenes and scenarios.

In conclusion, it is a very good game, including both suspense and nerve-wrecking terror all in one game. If you played the original and want to relive the adventure starring Chris and Jill, or if you simply like horror games, this is the one to buy. Several different unlockable weapons and game modes will keep you playing for a very long time.

4.5 out of 5 stars.

Resident Evil remake delivers a faithful adaptations of the original game. I played this on the GameCube and loved every minute of it. There are some new additions like new areas to explore in the mansion. Every enemy like zombies. Undead dogs. Hunters. Chimera. And the tyrant are all great. There is a new thing if you don't burn the dead bodies after you killed a zombie. It will rise again in another time and the zombie will be a lot of faster. Which was scary and intense. The controls are great. The graphics are amazing. I loved every detail of it. One issue I did have with the game is the music score. It was very quiet and the music score was set to a low volume or kept to the shadows with this game. I loved the original music score that was in the old game. And really missed it in this remake.

This is by far the best of the Resident Evil series...and the best GameCube game ever made. This version blew me away when I first played it, from the stunning graphics, to the great voice acting (probally the best voice acting I've ever heard in a game). This GameCube title out does the PlayStation in every way (it's at least 75% different). I was scared have to death when I saw Lisa Trevor for the first time and learned that she can't really die. It also gives more background on the characters, like Richard...it shows what he was really capable of doing and showed how much he cared about his team, despite him being killed. And it shows more of a story between Barry and Wesker's relationship. Jill has a very good storyline (she carries more weapons and has longer and better cutscenes),but I would have to say that my favorite would have to be Chris. Speaking of the characters, they are very well detailed and look very realistic (Chris and Wesker look 10x better than they do in Code Veronica), and are probally the best character models of any game. Resident Evil Zero was a bit of a disappointment, so I would prefer this Remake over that title by far. This is why Capcom has become a legendary company, producing titles like the Street Fighter sereis (my fav fighting series, Third Strike is the best fighting game ever made), to the Vs. series. Do yourself a favor and go out and buy this gem of a game...you won't regret it!!
