Game is overrated IMO,it is scarier than all the RE that came after it, but that's just because this game still handles like an archaic game from the nineties, I loved the games when I was a kid but theyre crap to play nowadays.

Son_Lee5074d ago

I wish every RE game before 4 could be remade with RE4's perspective and modern controls. That would be amazing.

rogimusprime5073d ago

well, the gamecube RE came out after code veronica, and it was much Scarier.

kingnick5073d ago

Using an Action Replay/Codebreaker/Gameshark code you can play the entirety of Resident Evil Code Veronica on PS2 (and other platforms too most likely) from a first person point of view.

Because the game wasn't designed to be played like this there is missing effects, textures and other graphical oddities.

It is less scary and you notice how dated the graphics are from a first person point of view.

Later third person shooter Resident Evils aren't scary at all.

code veronica was the best RE

RE4 was the least fucking ambitious what??

Vits525d ago

Maybe they are talking about lenght? Because RE4 Remake is definitely larger than the first two modern remakes.

Furesis525d ago

oh no, not another RE3 Remake

jambola524d ago

I really really hope they don't think it's "ambitous" to actually make the game a full game

lucasnooker524d ago

Understandable to me. RE4 is one of their most important title's compared to these. People like to complain about anything. Be happy RE4 turned out as good as it did…

jeromeface524d ago

Sorry but these titles walked so RE4 could run. Bottom line is they are longer games and capcom doesn't wanna set the expectations high. Which is disappointing.

Puty524d ago (Edited 524d ago )

Interesting. I would imagine it actually requires a lot more of work in terms of rewriting the story.

While I hated how they destroyed Nemesis in the RE3 remake, CV could really benefit from a major story overhaul. From the super corny opening action pumped sequence of Claire running from bullets to Jar Jar Binks level of writing of Steve character.

Redgrave523d ago

Steve is in dire need of remake redemption treatment. It worked for Carlos and Ashley, and made Luis better too.

VersusDMC524d ago

It's either like RE2 remake or they are keeping the static camera and redoing it in RE engine.

I think it will be like RE 2 remake and the not ambitious part is not making big set pieces or making it open with side quests like RE4 and Village.

If I have to decide between Code Veronica and RE5, then I go with Code Veronica Remake.

RE5 and 6 were more action oriented than survival horror.

robtion1055d ago

Resident Evil 5 was an amazing game and pretty similar to RE4 in terms of its horror/action formula. It just couldn't top RE4 which was a standout game. Regression to the mean, y'know.

I agree the less said about RE6 the better though.

danglyparts1055d ago

I really don't think we will have to decide. It's clear these games are a huge success critically and commercially. They will remake CV, zero, 1, 5, and 6.

MADGameR1055d ago

100% agreed, RE Code Veronica should be the next remake. I expect CAPCOM to bring out RE9 first though.
