Looking back at.....Resident Evil (remake)!
Have you played the Gamecube version of Resident Evil? It´s a remake of the original game on the Playstation but with some cool extra stuff in the game, for example new areas to explore and a new monster that is almost impossible to kill! This game was one of the main reasons for me to buy a Gamecube at that time (and I bought the Wind Waker to get the Ocarina of Time on this console as well). But how good is this version of Resident Evil?
Everything looks so good! Even now ten years later the game looks pretty good, I mean for that time it was amazing to see this in a game. It made scary even scarier and even when you knew things would happen there would still be surprises. For examples zombies you killed came back alive, but now they´re stronger and faster! This really freaked me out the first time, because I knew I killed that zombie and yet he stood up in a second and attacked me on sight. That was a nasty surprise but brilliant!
But it´s the same story? Yes you still play as Chris or Jill and try to escape the mansion full of zombies and traps, it´s a simple idea but it works so good! The new added locations make it even more creepy and I also like the looks of everything, it´s so creepy in the middle of the night with headphones on. When you hear the thunder and see the flash through the window, the chandelier moving and the shadows on the wall of branches that scratch the windows. The end is also pretty much the same as you remember it from the original but that´s ok, why change something that is already good?
I wish that you could play as Barry or Wesker in this game, not at first but after beating the game it would be a nice surprise. Just to see things from their perspective and maybe get another ending out of this game. I would really like that and I secretly hope that the new version of this remake (which comes out next year) will have something like that. I know that they said it´s going to be exactly like the Resident Evil remake but then with better graphics, but somehow I still hope that there might be a little bonus in this version. It´s great that good games can be made even better, I wish this would be the same for other games as well.
