RE2 wasn't particularly short what with all the different campaigns.

I'd honestly want a complete makeover. Not just REmake. I mean if it's just that than I'm still fine. But really want it to play more like 6 when it comes to combat. I'm going to get a lot of flak for this, but I don't care.
Doing only 2 would be stupid. If they want to sell this at full price, they need to include both 2 & 3. They can also have the RE2 characters be playable in RE3's mercenaries that way using RE3's more varied environments.

Give me tank controls.
Also, this is my FF7R/TLG/Shenmue moment

I find it strange that he's standing in front of a sign that says "Resident Evil 2 Remake" instead of "Biohazard 2 Remake".
I really doubt they are going to use that combat system for anything other than the newest mainline entries.
The next time we see it will be RE7 imo.

Capcom is turning down large amounts of money if they keep it old style. Considering that this is the same company that was too afraid to make another street fighter because it wouldnt make MAXIMUM REVENUE (and even then they turned it into a F2P game) I wouldn't bet on it.
yea it was really weird. But I guess the video is meant for western audience so it kinda makes sense.

That's not good at all, if they are going to seriously take feedback on it. For as many fans of the classic RE games that there are, there are probably triple (or more) that are fans of the more actiony style.
Maybe Capcom was feeling the pressure when projects like this are being done?

Short game? When playing both scenarios (which is needed to see the true ending) it's just as long as any other RE game. And then you can also play the scenarios reversed. This game had a ton of replay value.
Please no, I love TPSs as much as the next guy, but the original RE trilogy should remain survival horror, I know RE2 was the least scary of the original trilogy, but it still had a lot of creepy moments like the clicker's introduction & Mr. X.

2015 will go down in history as the year of miracles.... OMG CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!!!
It wouldn't make much sense tonally for it to play like RE6.
Leons First day as a cop shouldnt have him flip kicking all over the place and Claire doing german suplexes.
Dont get me wrong, I love RE6 gameplay. But the traditional REmake controls and gameplay is more than enough.
You know, can't they do both? Have the game fully 3D but with classic mode that has the camera angles and modern mode that it's more akin to RE4?

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=m9CXf0PwSzc I hope capcom makes it similar to this.
The first REmake was made in a year.
And that's with them having to learn the then new Gamecube hardware.
It's not about the camera angles, RE4 wasn't a survival horror because you basically had unlimited ammo & your character can do a fucking suplex, destroying any illusion of weakness for the main character.
If you have unlimited ammo & your character is superman, there's no pretense of survival horror anymore.
I always say this, Resident Evil 4 was a great game, but it wasn't a great Resident Evil.
Has Kamiya tweeted about this yet?
He spoke about it in an interview and is very excited to play it as a consumer. Said he could never enjoy the original RE2 much since he worked on it and knew too much about it.

It would be great if they could throw in RE3 also. That's my favorite of the old ones.
Despite RE4 being my favourite RE game I think I'm on Team REmake for this.
Although a RE2 remake with RE4 gameplay could potentially be awesome I don't think current Capcom have it in them to make a RE4 calibre game. They have less chance of messing it up by doing a more 1:1 remake.
Although no tank controls please.

This is how creativity dies. With roaring applause.
They were never going to do that.

One mode would always be imbalanced.
Amazing.
I admit, that enthusiasm is infectious. I hope this rocks and blows sales expectations out of the water.
The Remake of the last game had more originality added to it than the last 10 years of Resident Evil games we've endured.DerZuhälter;175154322 said:

Yeah honestly the only REmake this would make sense for would be RE3 where Jill be dodging and rolling around anyways.

I know. It's just my dream to get one of my favorite bio settings with my favorite bio combat.

Isn't that what the N64 version was?

They don't know how to make RE games anymore, I'd rather they just take the old ones and tart them up a bit tbh.

Who cares? It was still one of the funnest games ever that had the RE name stamped on the cover. Regardless of whether or not one believes it's a "real" RE (*which apparently only means Survival Horror).

You joke but I think that could work out decently well. Vanilla DC environments don't look half-bad ported into Unreal. Throw some new texture work and post-processing effects in there and things could look pretty good with, hopefully, a quick turnaround.
I'm sure they have more than 1 team in the company.
