Resident Evil 2 Remake pitched today

Oh my god...
If this gets greenlight I wonder how long it will be until an official announcement, maybe they'll get a CG trailer ready for PSX or something.

RE4 was great I'm just not sure why they had to throw the baby out with the bathwater in order to have better controls/gameplay. You can have better gameplay with puzzles and without broheim action, not to mention the sting is still there from UMBRELLA WAS KILLED BY THE STOCK MARKET after like three games ending with "it's time to take out Umbrella!"

Fuck that shit. Fuck all of it.

Probably my favorite case of Reality Ensues ever.

not me
I'm not big into a Nemesis remake only because the gameplay holds up really well, with the dodges, pushes, interesting weapons, Nemesis, etc.

RE2 on the other hand doesn't even have a 180 turn.

I've been waiting for this...

I have high hopes for this game. If it gets the same treatment REmake did on Gamecube... MAN!

Do it CAPCOM!

It's fair to say they could both do with a remake, hopefully they combine them to make the greatest RE of them all.

lol come on. "Resident Evil" name stopped making sense after the first one.

True but its still better than Biohazard.

Its bound to be funny.
Some already did. He just blocks them.
Well, apparently he didn't like making the game anyway so no loss not having him on board.

They can pull this off, I know they can.

My favt RE game, and I would have killed for this remake in the GCN era, but I worry about Capcom remaking this game from the ground up now. The temptation or corporate interference to action the game up and change it for the worse may be too high.

I think the only way we get an RE3make is if they somehow include it with this package.

The love for that game just isn't there like it is for RE1 and 2.

Yea... nobody's ever forgetting 2015.

In a few hundred years there will be religions teaching about the miracles that occurred this year.

If they're actually at the pitch/pre-production stages then screw them for trying to start building hype two years out. I wish more games would follow the Fallout 4 strategy of not saying a word until just a few months from release.

No way. Not only is it a seperate complete game that would take just as many resources to do justice too, but if REmake 2 does well, REmake 3 would be easy money as another $40-60 package to sell people. I think if people revisited it, they would realize how good the game is too.

"Did you read the Facebook post about the Resident Evil 2 remake?"

"Do you eat shit?"

I feel like at this rate if RE2 HD gets done they might as well do 3 also and then Capcom can re-release every game on a sold platform in a true collection. RE0-RE6 as a collection and seperate buys on PSN/XBL. People will dip and you will get new customers who are old and new who want to play the whole series without digging through old consoles.

I was hoping they'd release the PC version on steam, but this is even better.

Still hoping for the N64 version to make it to Virtual Console though!

Goooood. Then we just need RE3 HD and I can finally do a first timer full series playthough in HD. I was going to start 1 HD and play 2 and 3 on PS1, but I held off because I assumed this was inevitable.

I've never had kids, but I feel like I've been married for a few years and the wife just got home and announced she's pregnant... now we gotta get through the first trimester and hope it all goes well!

Or something like that. I'm excited!
 
I'm salivating at the possibility of a classic RE that is even better than REmake.

Initial wish list:
Bring back defense items with a manual and automatic mode.

Bring back Crimson Heads.

Do cool stuff that messes with veteran players (example in REmake being the dog hallway). One idea I have in mind would be the room with the one way mirror.

Like the recent REmake Remaster, allow costumes of Leon and Claire from recent games.

Gather all of the bonuses from every version including EX files, the minigame mode, and Nightmare difficulty from Dreamcast/XP.

If it's the 20th anniversary release, include an emulated version of RE2 as a bonus.

A mode akin to Once Again, Real Survival, Invisible Enemies, and One Dangerous Zombie.

This is all off the top of my head.
