That game is just for this, mockery. It went seriously down the drain after resident evil 4, just became ridiculous and stupid with every new game, turned into a mindless zombie TV soap.

You should absolutely try the RE2 remake then - it's an amazing return to form.
NO it isn't, that one is probably one of the worst after RE4, it has absolutely nothing to do with the classics, has no atmosphere, no suspens, soulless game. It's generic, graphics are outdated, washed-out colours, constantly repeating one the same zombies in areas, clones, it's so lazy made, overhyped. It shows you where gaming is today when the trend now is to remilk old games. And Mister X! Not gonna even go there, not at all. Only thing I can say that they did positive is marketing, fantastic marketing and getting all those trendy YouTube gaming influencers to go wow Wow! Coz they got a copy earlier same crap going on with the preschool, florescent spectacular fireworks edition of Doom eternal .

Different strokes for different folks, I suppose. I've been playing both series since the first entries and I thoroughly enjoyed both RE2:Remake and Doom Eternal, but I guess it's a matter of taste.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv2, Exactly. Take note of the Switch, for example. Its underpowered compared to how older tech was capable of doing just about anything.

    @K3Nv2, Not gonna lie, about half of its game library was shovelware like its counterpart, the Wii.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, and the other half were just 1st party games

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, The Wii U was essentially an early Switch, before the Switch was a thing.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They already had the technology but the price to performance wasn't there

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Older systems I love some of the games but without filters and enhanced graphics they are difficult to enjoy

    Especially the PS1....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    That thing needs all the bandaids lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think my favorite PS1 enhancement is sub pixel precision, helps get rid of some of those wobbly polygons lol

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Psionic Roshambo, By default, the polygons are filtered with differing to simulate depth, which doesn't make them clearer.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There are ways to disable this by creating cheat codes, but this requires knowledge of the PS1 hardware.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
