Resident Evil Zero is a prequel to the long running Resident Evil series, being set merely a day before the Mansion Incident of the original Resident Evil. Zero has players simultaneously control two protagonists: STARS Bravo member Rebecca Chambers, and escaped convict Billy Coen.
RE0 Remastered confirmed. Update: trailer & screenshots.
My cynical nature is telling em that this one wont sell well, then Capcom'll say "See? They don't want an RE2 remake! This sold like shit! REmake was a fluke!"
I remember not really liking Zero that much, mostly due to the inventory management. I will still probably get this as I never actually finished it.
At this point, I don't really want a Resident Evil 2 remake, because they would probably find a way to fuck it up immensely. There's no way they would give it the same treatment as what the REmake was to the original game. Or maybe they would...I dunno anymore. I definitely WOULD love that Onimusha HD collection, though.
Hopefully this is a sign they are realizing the RE5/6 formula sucks and the next one will actually be survival horror.
Resident Evil 3 Nemesis remastered. Psx 480i graphics bumped up to 1080p witness all the polygon shapes in all its glory.
Cannot wait.
Hah, the minute I saw that video in my subs when I woke up I was like "well, let's see when YummLee makes a thread f- oh it's already up"
As others have said, RE2 wold of course have been nice but I'm on board for this, I got into the RE games late, sometime after Code Veronica X (PS2) so I didn't get a chance to play any of the originals but had always wanted too, but as time went on it became harder/more of a hassle to attempt to do so, so having remakes/masters of them is fantastic for me, now I finally get to experience them and wanted to play them all.
So hey, bring it on, also I love train levels in games.
Double also it might be fun to play an old school RE that isn't a maze... unless it still is somehow, I mean it's a train, forward and backward? Maybe a few cars with an up and down? Ah hell, it's Resident Evil, there is probably a secret secondary train running under the first train to double the length and make it confusing.
The train segment isn't actually the bulk of the game. It's a sizeable chunk but the big HUB of the game is an Umbrella Training Facility, which... is designed awfully similar to a mansion you could say.
Ibut the amount of inventory spaces really killed that game for me. I don't really have an interest in playing another game with those problems,
That's actually not as big an issue in RE:0 because unlike previous games you can actually drop items you don't need on the floor and they stay there for you to grab later. Not to mention you have control of both characters at the same time throughout most of the game so the inventory is twice as big as it usually is.
There's no inventory boxes, however, and they also reintroduce items/weapons that take up two slots. Even though allowing you to place items on the floor was a neat idea, it still ultimately made for a really cumbersome system that frankly pales to the accessibility of the classic inventory box method in the other games.

the train is just the first act.
@csl316: Damn right, duder.
Hopefully when that happens (and it WILL, right Capcom?!), my fellow Canadian Alyson Court can return as Claire, having been absent from Revelations 2. Also, a humble suggestion: Ed Blaylock as Brian Irons. God, I just realized this is my dream game...

I'm still really disappointed that she wasn't asked to return for Revelations 2. She was the last remaining 'classic' VA for these games, after having quite literally voiced the character in every single prior appearance. Obviously she's not a great VA or anything, but she had become so synonymous with the character that it's tough to hear the character under a different voice.
@yummylee: I don't think I can handle this bad VA talk; my world is crumbling. RE2 and by extension, Court, was such an important part of my childhood. Besides, I saw RE Degeneration. She's alright in that.
I should disclose that I'm probably the most biased person about this ever, not just for the aforementioned reason, but because Court also played the classic, leading role of Loonette in the Citizen Kane-esque character study which is The Big Comfy Couch (Canadian thing). It's similarly in the top five most formative medias in my life.
In other words, STEP OFF MAH GURL!
Digital Foundry has released a hands-on with the PS4 version of the remaster: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-hands-on-with-resident-evil-zero-hd
A more thorough analysis will follow later.
@yummylee: I finally started playing Dino Crisis, seems pretty fun.
Man, I haven't even gotten around to snapping up the REmake and this is already nearly out, looks pretty spiffy. I'll be very curious to return to this one since it's right behind Code Veronica in the pantheon of main line Resident Evil games I've only beaten at a minimum of two or three times. I wanna say I only beat RE0 once and Code Veronica has three play-throughs because I played the 360 re-release early last year (still don't like it much as it turns out!) so I wonder if I'll find a new appreciation for this game or still kinda sorta don't like it.
Least I still have the REmake to play again when I get around buying it, maybe a digital bundle on the xbox one store containing REmake and 0 will go on sale a few months after this drops and snatch it up then.
