Pls no Neptune tank repeats.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

So this is a thing now?

Cool .

RE was a huge hit so Capcom gonna ride this remaster train hard.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

A remake we finally deserve. Its about time!

 

[.:Wesker:.]

I messed with the levels a bit on the Gamecube side for this one, to better illustrate any changes to the background. It's probably not faithful to what you'd see on an actual GC.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Well, it doesn't look bad at all, judging by that screenshot.
I can only hope this remaster will look more cohesive - visually speaking - than REHD... I genuinely couldn't pass over its fluctuations in backgrounds' quality.

Also, is it me or they remodeled Rebecca after the original Resident Evil actress?

Its just you, they modeled Rebecca in Zero after Ayumi Hamasaki, same with REmake.

Yeah, it was that period of her career

 

[JohnSpartanLee]

The worst classic RE - but only by a hair's breadth.

Still a damn good game and will easily be in the top 10 of 2016's PS4 releases.

 

[Galdelico]

Its just you, they modeled Rebecca in Zero after Ayumi Hamasaki, same with REmake.

Yep I know. She just looked quite different to me, at least in this first screenshot (even more in the comparison gif).

 

[FyreWulff]

Huh I didn't know they made a Wii version

As someone said, all the GC REs were ported to the Wii.

Technically this makes the Wii RE4 the best one since you have both pointer control, GameCube control, the extra PS2 content and all the original GameCube graphical effects are intact. The only negative is that it's 480p compared to the HD resolution of the other versions.

If we could get a Wii U RE4 port, then we'd have RE4 in HD, with all the original graphic effects present due to having the GameCube deep inside it, and with the GC adapter the ability to play with the original controller. But they're more than likely skipping on Wii U since there's a hojillion Wii copies of the game that work already for the U.

EDIT: The same director from the original release is helming the project.

It's probably just me, but it looks like her eyes are just slightly further apart.

 

[Hyrule Warrior]

2016??? That's way too long a wait =/ I've been having an urge to play this since I finished REmake HD

Becca's face looks weird in the new version, is just the angle?.

 

[Inuhanyou]

^ Exactly the same face, its just her head is turned downward

[Markitron]

You can't forgive them for making one of their best games...

I don't know which GAF cult is more bizarre, the cult of RE6 fans or the cult of Knack fans

 

[The Praiseworthy]

What an awesome news!!

Bring it on

 

[Dragon1893]

Finally!
Fantastic news to wake up to.
Was hoping for a 2015 release though...

 

[Lakitu]

Great news, I'll buy it upon release. RE Remaster was some good shit, made me realise how much I missed the older classic Resident Evils.

 

[e-gamer]

Worst Resident Evil game i played.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

I messed with the levels a bit on the Gamecube side for this one, to better illustrate any changes to the background. It's probably not faithful to what you'd see on an actual GC.

I don't like the bloom but the rest of the background looks great. Is it possible that this time they do have original high-res backgrounds?
I wonder how will it look in motion, especially the train part with all those animated objects.


So now that RE0, RE1/REmake, RE2, RE3, RE4, RE5, RE6, REV1 and 2 are officially on PC... There's one game missing there, CAPCOM.

 

[Mifec]

I don't know which GAF cult is more bizarre, the cult of RE6 fans or the cult of Knack fans

No one ACTUALLY thinks Knack is good r...right? At least RE6 has kickass TPS mechanics so I understand that.

 

[renjworks]

awesome news! PS4!
never owned a nintendo except famicom and gameboy advanced.

 

[Audette]

Wow at the difference! looking good!

there is a boxed version of revelations 2

trying to not start PC versions as I would be to anal about the boxes of earlier releases haha. Would grab the ps3&4 editions to start.

Woah, I thought Code V already was on PC how did I mix that up?

 

[liquidtmd]

Really thought it would have been a given for October 2015

If it means a quality polish then sure, take time but disappointed. Was hoping in my heart of hearts that Zero would get announced for Oct 2015 with a plan of sorts for RE2 and RE3 announced after.

Zero is the weakest. It's just not all that interesting and it's structure doesn't warrant the same replayability as REMake / 2 / 3 or even CV.

Will still pick up though as loved replaying REMake and want Capcom to do....you know.

 

[Plasma]

It looks good but I wonder if they'll put in as much effort detailing the rest of the game, the RE remaster was really rough in spots.

Also I hope they add in item chests, I liked being able to drop items but it would have been better with chests as well.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

One thing that bothers me is that RE Zero uses FMV a lot, even for non-important scenes. And those were not looking that hot in REmake. :/

 

[InfiniteNine]

Well they redid almost all of the FMV areas in 3D for REmaster so all those portions look great in it.

 

[bodeiseifer]

Wonder if it will have the n64 version as an unlockable

 

[KennyLinder]

Need that 60fps Resi 4 Ultimate on PS4/X1 next pls.

 

[Lux R7]

Used to love this game on my GC!

 

[Acquiescence]

That's cool. I still need to give the remaster of the remake of the first game a try.

 

[Porcile]

If that shot is indicative of how the actual game is going to look then i'm am pleasantly surprised. RE HD was fugly as hell.

 

[TGO]

Fantastic news, but why fucking 2016?

 

[liquidtmd]

GAF hyperbole is amazing

 

[Dusk Golem]

You know, with the director and core staff of RE0 working on this, I'd find it interesting if they added more to the game, like maybe Crimson Heads or something. But probably not, I know.

 

[S1kkZ]

Fantastic news, but why fucking 2016?

because they didnt just slap some filters onto resi remake hd and took their time. they will (hopefully) do the same here. while they didnt re-render the backgrounds, they put some effort into the hd remaster.

 

[Joey Ravn]

Oh, nice. I beat Zero for the first time in my life earlier this year. It was an OK game, but I think I've had enough of it with the original GameCube version.

 

[Porcile]

GAF hyperbole is amazing

I didn't like what they did with the contrast alteration, just as I don't like it when film studios mess around with the image of classic films.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

Well they redid almost all of the FMV areas in 3D for REmaster so all those portions look great in it.

No, no. I'm talking about full motion movies as cut-scenes. In REmake you had intro, endings and few short non-important scenes during the game (first zombie encounter, Hunter's attack, Tyrant's reveal etc.). In RE0 there are far more full motion videos though. Out of 7 characters that appear throughout the game (I'm ignoring STARS members that appear only in the intro), only 3 have in-game 3D models.

 

[Markitron]

No one ACTUALLY thinks Knack is good r...right? At least RE6 has kickass TPS mechanics so I understand that.

Go into the next Knack or PS Plus thread you see. It will open your eyes.

 

[HellofaMouse]

Btw did the first rediHd ever got a retail release for ps4? (I know there are boxed copies of it for ps3)

 

[TGO]

Nope

No sadly.

Oh damn. You're right about that... but the core experience will be way better looking. Who knows at this point maybe there is a sliver of a chance they actually have some of these assets saved this time.

 

[Percy]

That's releasing later than I expected.

 

[News Bot]

So with Code Veronica and Revelations being RE TOSE 2 and RE TOS3?

Gun Survivor too.

Whatever happened to Carlos Riveira? Now that every almost every major character has had their day in the limelight or been heavily featured, I feel he's been put on a major bus and I want to see him in a game.

Also who would play a STARS prequel game? Or even all the old STARS guy in a mercenaries mode? I really want to see the mortar guy.

Carlos Oliveira won't appear in a main game as a main character. BIO3 was originally a side-story and he was created as a side-story character, so he will only appear in side-stories, hence why he's only appeared in Umbrella Chronicles and Operation Raccoon City since. Nikolai Zinoviev is the same.

I messed with the levels a bit on the Gamecube side for this one, to better illustrate any changes to the background. It's probably not faithful to what you'd see on an actual GC.

Dolphin misses a lot of lighting effects but apart from that the HD Remaster is definitely using higher resolution backgrounds rather than simply upscaled.

 

[Rymuth]

Bleh! Game was boring as sin when it came out.

Grats for those excited, I suppose.

 

[ResidentDante]

Have they changed her face?

 

[Castef]

Why are people so happy? This is not a good game. XD

To each their own I guess, lol.

This! I mean... It is one of the worst chapters in the saga.

 

[CadetMahoney]

Game wasn't very good, Capcom might get low sales and then think time to stop doing this and never get a RE2/3 remake.

 

[KiteGr]

Cool I guess, but I dont have any hopes for RE2, RE3 or RE:CV recieving similar treatment.

Resident Evil HD was based on the Remake of RE. Not the original. And RE0 used the same engine as REmake.
Currently there is no official remake of RE2 or RE3. And RE:CE recieved an HD treatment quite recently.
Even if they actually plan to remake RE2, I don't expect it to be as good as REmake. I don't trust anyone other than Shinji Mikami doing it properly.

I think these remasters will stop with RE0...

 

[Tizoc]

Code Veronica never had a PC release, but they could always just port the PS360 version of the game.
