im pretty sure that OG resident evil 2 is the best game ever madehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMz6bhXyNZc
Its certainly up there with Ocarina of Time and Metal Gear Solid 1.
>>736445826its pretty good. I liked 3 more. But 2 got me into the Browning Hi-Power thanks to Claire. Love that gun.
>>736445934>mgs1big truere2 and mgs1 are the best games ever made
>>736445934Tetris was pretty good, they still haven't topped that one
Went back to it again after playing that shitty ass Remake. I don't know how they keep fucking up games that did their homework for them.
>>736445826It's not even better than RE1 though.
>>736448185Or even RE3 Nemesis
>>736448185HAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH
>>736445826I'd agree pre 11/11/11... but then this was made...
>>736445826Peak...
>>736448185Based. I like it more than the city and gay police station
>>736448889Has there every been another vidya that did a cheeky release date like this?
>>736449637The Beatles game and Guitar Hero 5 both released on 9/9/09
>>736449779I would've thought Kojima or Miyazaki would do a little ruse cruise release date
>>736449779The Dreamcast and the launch games on 9/9/99 has those beat.
>>73644582628 years later
>>736445826It's the weakest of the OG trilogy
How often should I be killing zombies in original 2?I'm doing Claire A and I know nothing of the original
>>736445826https://youtu.be/9FJN76pBp-U
>>736451176Avoid what you can mow down the mobs. be careful what you take because it carries over to Leon with key items being exempt
>>736451176If you're sure it's a room you're gonna be traveling through consistently then it's best to clear it out
>>736451176Kill everything you see. You get more than enough ammo
>>736451176Play OG RE1 first.
I like the calm dread of the first game's save room theme.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QImDXcc3ZIQ
I dont think so at all. Its worse than re1 in multiple ways. Its pretty fucking boring.
>>736451176kill em all. RE2 gives you more than enough ammunition to kill anything that moves
>>736454210Well, I don't really "like" it, but it's really great for the atmosphere they were going for. I don't really know how to describe it but it really fits the small moment of guaranteed peace from what awaits outside, but also the sheer loneliness of the situation. It fits the feeling of ruminating on the terrifying and horrible situation you're in. Of course, the game isn't that terrifying, not very scary at all, but that's not really the point.
>>736445826I'm replaying it right now after almost 30 years. It feels so nostalgic.
>>736445826i played it last year and it's definitely deserving of being claimed as one of the best games of all time. it's the second RE I've finished.
>>736452020>be careful what you take because it carries over to LeonOnly the sidepack and SMG
Just finished zero for the first time.I enjoyed it more than I expected but the bad parts like the bat boss (hell most of the bosses) were REALLY bad. Train and the training facility were great areas. I really liked how open the first half of the training facility was, there's a lot to explore.Also the final stretch felt way too long. Water treatment feels like it was 10 rooms bigger than it needed to be so it takes forever to backtrack.
>>736445826From purely a gameplay perspective the remake is better. OG does have superior aesthetic/OST/atmosphere tho
>>736445826those Vangelis-esque synth undertones on that save room track are sex to the ears
I'm going to be playing the original first three games in order brehs, give me some starter tips (I'm retarded)
>ended Claire B with 40 rounds of acid and flame grenades
>>736445826it is
>>736456810You can blow zombie heads off with a shotgun if you point it upwards when they're close to you.
>>736448889>not even the best tes game
>>736456810You don't *really* need to conserve your resources as much as the game suggests you do but it's a lot more fun if you do play stingy. It's pretty common to finish a resident evil game with huge reserves of ammo and heals that you never used "just in case". Also don't forget to play CODE: Veronica after RE3. It's a mainline RE game and it plays like a proper sequel to RE2 unlike RE3 which has a much bigger action focus. Use Dolphin emulator for that
>>736456742Those MIDI synths of the era were so good.
>>736445826I love it so much. It's sad that a lot of people won't appreciate it.
>>736458183True, daggerfall exists.
Do I ever waste ammo to down Mr x in og 2? I'm doing Claire A
>>736459553He doesn't appear in the A scenarios
>>736459553He drops ammo in every encounter, and the type of ammo escalates with each
>>736459553It's easy enough to just run around him, and he only drops ammo when downed. Never unique items like Nemesis in RE3.
>>736456250>>736457272I love reaching this place in both games. I even edited the BGM in RE0 to play The Marshalling Yard here.
>>736461258The Marshalling yard is in RE0?
>>736456810Use the pause glitch in RE1.
>>736461735No, I swapped the wind bgm that plays here with the marshalling yard from RE2.
>>736459553>Mr XMaybe my game was bugged but I never even saw em?
I think 2 is amazing at what it does but 4 is perfect at what it doesThe problem with comparing them is that they're trying to do two very different things. 2 is like a Metroid game where you're surviving and trying to make your way around this scary labyrinth and 4 is an arcade game where you're the coolest guy ever killing everyone and everythingSince 4 does what it's trying to do better than 2 does (Yes, 2 has problems) I guess you could maybe argue that it's better, but the fact that this series has tried to do so much and gotten some "Potential best ever" entries on those different attempts is really cool
>>736461770Huh, wuts that
>>736445826I agree
>>736462691He only shows up in the B scenarios.
>>736448185>>736448613Re2 is the best RE game Re1 and re3 is not better than 4
>>736451176RE2 and RE3 have too much ammoyou can kill every single thing 3 or more times
>>736459553He's basically a merchant that lets you exchange handgun ammo for better stuff.
>>736451176I just beat leon b an hour ago, finished with 43 magnum rounds and 62 shotgun shells
>>736465353Feels like the B scenario has way more ammo in general compared to A
Claire should have gotten a grenade launcher upgrade that turned it into a rapid fire 6 shot revolving launcher like Jill had in RE1 or a China Lake or something. I don't care how realistic it is. Leon got all the cool shit and she really needed something to balance it out.
>>736465135They really need a proper hard mode, the whole survival part of these games fall flat when you realize that you get enough ammo to just run through and blast every enemy.
>>736445826First game is better.>OG resident evil 2Also, the "Biohazard 2" original Japanese release is definitely superior to the western release.
>>736465987RE2 actually has a hard/nightmare mode on pc and dreamcast.
>>736456810Kenneth has 30 handgun rounds on his body in RE1. A lot of people overlook this. You just have to keep searching him until you get them.
