Josh, Matt, Allan and Adnan from ToasterChimp discuss whether or not the Resident Evil franchise is in serious need of a reboot.
Capcom has announced and released the original Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 on Steam.
With the ninth mainline installment looming, it feels like the right moment to rank every mainline Resident Evil game from worst to best.
At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.
I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.
The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.
The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.
i’m fine with people calling it “mainline,” but leaving out the original re1 entirely is wild, since it basically defines the whole series. i’d still put re2 over re4 for pure pacing and atmosphere, even though re4 is the more replayable game. also, the “mainline” label gets messy with code veronica since it feels more essential than some numbered entries. i swear half the time i’m reading these rankings i get derailed by random gambling tabs i opened earlier, including https://monopolybigballerli... and https://football-studio-dic... and https://red-baron.org/ which is a weird contrast to talking about survival horror.
Capcom has launched a new website to celebrate the 30th anniversary of its long-running survival horror series, Resident Evil.
Only if it's to go back to survival horror or it's pointless.
Do the right thing Capcom give us Resident Evil back.
I font care if its a reboot, as long as the game is good n scary.
Legitimately scary, not "the tank controls make it scary" scary.
Gawd yes. The story has become a convoluted mess.
Not really. We just need more survival horror RE games.
Yeah I think the majority of fans will say it does. It hasn't been survival horror since 4 came out. Even that was just skirting the lines. But it was good.
The story now is so convoluted. And the gameplay is just generic third person shooter. Where are the puzzles, riddles and genuine tension??
I've played these games since 2 first came out. I miss true Resident Evil games. Bring back the mansion, raccoon city and a simpler storyline that somewhat makes sence.
