This is the one with all the guns!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (GameCube) (Video Game)
Resident Evil is a series that has evolved slowly, if at all. Do not expect this to be like the eye caressing visuals of the Resident Evil re-make or Resi. Zero, it is a straight port from the ancient PSone. (i.e. the visuals aren't up to much) You have been warned!
Resi. 3 is perhaps the only game in the series that has tried to move the the game on slightly. It is more action packed than the others, and it relies a lot more on panic than dreading what is round the next corner. For example, the Nemesis can't be killed and has a nasty habit of chasing you through doors/windows/allys with a rocket launcher! HELP! Another new addition is the gun powder. This is invaluble as it allows you to make your own ammo! The best part of the game though is the 'live' decisions you have to make which determines your path through the game, you have to see it to belive it, just don't choose to 'fight the monster'!!!!! The controls have also been tweeked. This has the quick turn and also a very handy dodge ability to miss or wriggle free of Zombies grasp. Ultimatley, Resi. 3 is a gripping, heart pumping experience not to be missed. Just don't expect another Resident Evil Zero or the Origional re-make. So, if you like Resident Evil games, you must get this piece of Nostalgia. Buy it, buy it now! You know you want it!

The nemesis returns,
By A Customer
This review is from: Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (GameCube) (Video Game)
Resident evil 3 was origianally released in november 1997 and was a brilliant game. Jill was brought back from resi 1 and the story was that jill had to escape from the t-virus infected raccoon city. When it was released on gamecube in 2003, many people thought it would be like the gamecube version of resi 1 with amazing graphics and new parts. However, this like resi 2 on the cube has the same graphics (except for the arms and legs which have been smoothed out) as the original. But that dosn't matter. The nemesis is the best boss ever and meets you around fourteen times depending how you play the game. That is also another good feature. Just like the original at certain parts you can choose what to do next. it makes the game evn more fun. As well as this though, nicholai is in it and he is really cool, not as good as wesker though. Anyway, nemesis is bloody awesome and at parts is equipped with a rocket launcher. Half way through he loses this weapon and uses tentacles which is probably harder because you find yourself being slammed into the ground a lot and jill is proper slow at getting back up. The storyline is good and the game itself is probably better than resi 2. Even though in this game, the police station is in it too. There are some amazing weapons too such as handguns, assault rifles, grenade launchers, mine launchers, shotguns and the legendary magnum. There is also a bonus minigame which can help you earn even greater weapons such as a gatling gun. The city itself is full of monsters includin zombies, brain suckers, drain demos and the hunter. There are many locations and it is quite confusing in parts. Anyway this is a brilliant game no matter what anybody else says so GET IT NOW!!!

"Starz" Creepy goings on in Raccoon City,
By Zabba "Over Nine-thousand?" (THAT island) - See all my reviews
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (GameCube) (Video Game)
This is my first "traditional" Resident Evil game after completing Resident evil 4 on my PS2, I thought the pre-rendered backgrounds and different controls would put me off a bit, but this game is fantastic.
Of course for Resident Evil fands who have experience of the series, they would have no problem with controls and know exactly what to expect from the series, but I didn't have a clue, and that just made it better... The Pre-rendered backgrounds provide and excellent atmosphere for a game originally released for PS1, if it came in full 3D the experience wouldn't have been the same with dodgy polygons. Whilst charatcers are fairly simple looking, the enemies still look freaky and just great, minus the detail that comes with the advanced technology of the 6th Gen systems. The game controls are perfect one you get used to them, and both the eerie sounds of the different locations and the puzzles and enemies you encounter are well thought up and provide an excellent gaming experience. The main story of the game is Jill Valentine trying to escape from Raccoon City before it's destruction (which she is unaware of throughout most of the game) and trying to survive the zombies and getting hunted down by The Nemesis, that messed up dude you can see on the box art. His presence is genuinely terrifying, as you'll just be walking along and he'll stroll through the door, forcing you to make a quick in-game decision on what to do, which affects the overall ending. This idea of a choice is really good and it adds an extra level of interactiveness into this survival game. If you're not given a choice, you'll be legging it as fast as you can as he catches up to you really fast with a big rocket launcher. Scary times. Now obviously the game is only scary the first time you play it, some would argue it's not even scary, but it does make you jump, which is great! If there are people of a nervous disposition, wondering whether this game is worth it, it is, it's got gore and some creepy scenes, but nothing that'll keep you up all night with the light on. Overall it's a fantastic game, but it loses a star because of the fact it's a direct port of the PS1 game, and not remade like the original, also the game is quite short, and will take you 10 hours at the most to play through. Highly recommended!
