I love how Jeremy says the horror survival aspect may never come back... the next game in the main series is horror survival... well at least he jinxed it
I think RE7 is bad. But then RE8 convinced me. I hated how RE7 felt like you played as mental patients, rather than cops investigating places with horror. But reason i am opening up to RE8 is mainly due to, people making jokes on how RE1 sounded like they had pornstars doing the dialogues. So RE8 has these tall Vampire ladies made by capcom... whether its coincidence or not. That was enough for me to be open to RE8. RE7 was bad i just pretend it never happend to me
@@hauntedheathen2732 Sorry mate, but that just isn't true. I think we have a faction of fans of the OG who played on normal( which was easy mode, and felt action focused as you were given a machine gun or something at the start), and the ones who played it on the actual difficulty it was meant to be played, hard. OG Re 3 was more action, but still is a survival horror game, giving me the thrills REmake 3 could only dream of giving me. Remake 3 was not enjoyable at all on the higher difficulties (hardcore etc), and was like the easy mode of OG nemesis on standard. The people at M2 messed it up completely. They made it an action game with survival horror elements. This looks like the Leon's campaign of Re 6, but you don't have the cool moves nor the proper balancing to make to make it work.
I don't think it's Mikami's fault, it was gamers all around the world in 2002 for not buying and supporting Resident Evil Remake on the Gamecube. Yes, due to poor sales, he decided to make an action oriented RE, hence RE4. RE4 gets a lot of love, most of you on here are saying it's the best in the franchise. That's why Capcom left it's survival horror roots. They did it *because* of us.
Resident Evil Remake bombing was purely Mikami's fault. He opted to release it exclusively for the Gamecube, which was a niche console at that time. The Playstation 2 sold gangbusters, eventually reaching over 100 million sales, and should've been the obvious choice for a release, but Mikami hated Sony at that time (he hated the Playstation's hardware), which resulted in no port. He doomed the franchise at that time due to being unable to get over his own ego. Luckily, Capcom were smart enough to release a HD remake of REmake for the Playstation (and XBox) afterwards, and it sold so well that they decided to return the franchise to its roots. They finally heard the people.
no i like it too it was a good action game and i like how this one has more to it than the rest of them more campaign which it awesome it definitely worth the price
Decided to read the comments and say RE4 was my favorite game. Was shocked to find people hating 4 and saying it didn't make sense. Now I want to go drown myself, but will do so while playing RE4.
I agree 100%!! I actually enjoyed all 4 campaigns and the story. The T Rex transformation was a little much, but all in all it was an interesting story. My favorite resident evil has to be code Veronica!
Resident evil 4. I adored 2 & 3 but that moment at the beginning of resident evil 4 (you all know damn well what im talking about) is one of the greatest moments in gaming history for me.
I dont really care about what resident evil was. I just care about what it IS. I love resident evil 6 to death. I know not many people do, but I cant lie, I love this game.
But it wasn't a survival Horror game it had nothing to do with real Resident Evil. Shure it was a great action game but Mikami should have changed it to a new IP just like Hideki Kamiya did when he turned his version of RE4 into Devil May Cry.
Resident Evil 4. I love the fact I can put Ashley in a suit of armor and she can't be killed or kidnapped. And Leon's mobster outfit is badass. Buy the Tommy Gun and put him in that outfit and try reloading a couple times. What he does is awesome.
RE6 wasn't the terrible, franchise killing game it was made out to be. It was just a victim of the franchise's previous success. The same can be said for RE5 actually.
@@AlessandroMarques95 With all the content and advancement 6 has I'm having a hard time seeing how. RE 2 remake even copies alot from that game and does it worse. One can even say 6 is better than 7. Fans can be confusing at times.
@@realamericannegro977 Functionally, RE2 is nothing short of amazing. Did it copy the story? Sure, but it evolved the formula to fit into a modern engine which is a breath of fresh air for the franchise. RE6 might have more diverse content, but RE2 is so well polished and overall just can't be compared to RE6
@@Ninja_Bryden RE 2 remake is heavily influenced by part 6 in many ways. RE 2 remake is a smaller game. RE 6 is a bigger game that had nothing to lean on and took risks. Part 2 remake plays it extra safe to please fans. It could be much better. People these days are hard to please yet easy to manipulate when they only get a taste of what they want. RE 2 remake doesn't even take as many risks as the original groundbreaking title.
RE5 is seriously not even half as bad as everyone makes it to be. The game is a let down, I won't argue that, but it is still a very good game; you can play it, have fun and enjoy the story, which is a good sequel to RE4 and wraps up the entire Wesker madness pretty well. I just finished RE6 and it is a completely different story. I've been playing all the RE these past weeks, and I've never felt so much frustration with any of them like RE6. The game is designed to waste your time with stupid deaths. But apart from being as far away from RE as possible, and the incredibly annoying zombie behavior, the game was still entertaining with pretty decent story. Leon's and Chris' campaign made me question why was I even playing this game in the first place, but Jake and Ada's campaign were pretty good, so really the game is decent. Like Jeremy said, it doesn't deserve the 4s this was getting on release. And btw, I really don't understand why everyone was hating on the whole Wesker Jr thing. Before I played the game I thought it was gonna be something super stupid like Wesker Jr being the villain, but when I found out it was Jake I really liked the idea. Jake is a well written character, and he was honestly the best thing that came out of RE6, but I guess butthurt "fans" will throw shit for anything. I really hope to see more of him in future games.
I agree with you on everything, except on Wesker's death. I felt that, Not only was Wesker's character ruined in re5 with the whole generic world-conquering madman; I also felt that Sheva didn't deserve the honor of killing him since (although Sheva was an ok character) she was a nobody character who only appeared in one game.
I would enjoy it, but the Ai partner puts me off really hard... I'm not much of a multiplayer guy, so I prefer to play alone. RE5 you really need a buddy to play with, which is why I dont care for it.
I agree with your comment seeing that I'm playing RE6 right now as I speak. I usually don't play games when they come out cause I've got so much other stuff to catch up on and ended up playing RE5 a few months ago which I did enjoy, regardless of this guy's comments. I'm trying to give RE6 a chance but find myself getting frustrated every so often with the lack of control over gameplay. I'm still hanging in there, hoping the game will eventually grow on me and I can add it to my library otherwise I'll just end up selling it back to my local GameStop store. P.S. I still have games that I bought years ago still in their original wrapping, hoping to sit down at some point and enjoy them; Tombraider, Max Payne3, BioShock Infinite, FEAR 3, Farcry 2, Metro 2033.....
Wow people have such a narrow view on what constitutes survival horror.Survival horror is not just about being weaponless and completely vulnerable or being in a dark corridor all alone.Even with strong characters and guns,you can still have survival horror.The world is overrun by zombies.That is terrifying and even if you have guns and ammo to fight zombies doesn't make it any less creepy.When you're hugely outnumbered by zombies you are scared (that's horror) and you're fighting for your survival.I am glad that the series has evolved rather than become stagnant to satisfy the nostalgia of fanboys. Survival horror is nowhere near dead and might i say it has never looked this promising.Games like Amnesia,Outlast and even Alan Wake have kept the genre alive.Everything suffers from bandwagon hate,games,movies,singers.Apparently hating has become a new trend.
I actually enjoyed RE6 a bit, but no it's not what most people consider "survival horror". This game never once frightened me or creeped me out in any way, and I doubt it did for many others either. Pretty much everything you said that doesn't constitute a survival horror game is exactly what makes one. Why do you think people are so afraid of Amnesia? You're completely defenseless and all you can do is run away. In Alan Wake, ammo was always pretty darn scarce and the enemies were tough and extremely threatening. In RE6, you're a walking armory virtually all of the time and the enemies really aren't that hard to kill. That's like trying to call Mass Effect a survival horror game because you fight to survive against crazy alien creatures that'd probably scare us if it were real life.
Garrus -Vakarian I haven't finished RE6 but i remember RE5 and i was creeped out by the game many times.In the beginning when a horde of zombies surround the house you and Shiva are in,i remember being scared.Yes it's obviously not as scary as Amnesia or Outlast but it's a different kind of scare. RE6 has plenty of terrifying moments too.It's not always guns blazing action.Even in the action sequences like the giant snake boss fight,you feel this feeling of dread.Watching the world being overrun by chaos and zombies in RE6 is scary to me.It doesn't make me jump off my seat or makes me want to look away but that doesn't mean it's not scary.Horror is not always about being helpless and vulnerable.
To me survival horror is like old school RE and silent hill and games like outlast and amnesia like you said. To many people think games are a survival horror game just cause it has inventory like silent hill or RE. And if the game is a horror game they have to label it survival in their mind for some reason idk why. To me RE stopped being survival horror in RE4, it become action horror at that point. Now that doesn't mean its a bad thing it depends on the execution of it. People bitched that DS3 wasn't a survival horror game anymore, but it never was. The first game was action horror same with 2. It's a third person game with horror elements. Just cause its a horror game doesn't mean its a survival horror game idk why people don't see that.
DungaDunga Resident evil is more action than horror now but to say it's all action and no horror is stupid.There are still horror and survival elements in the game.And personally i like this new direction.Franchises have to evolve and if they would have stuck with the same old horror style in Resident Evil,we would have 6 very repetitive games.Imagine Amnesia 6.
Well said, IMO RE4 was indeed survival horror evolved, but RE5 was neither. That being said RE6 had both Leon and Ada whose campaigns felt very survival horror no matter what the haters say. The other campaigns in RE6 may not have been survival or horror, but they were still good. RE6 just wanted to please any type of gamer, that is all they were trying to do. Did they succeed? Well for me they did. My personal belief is that RE4 represents the perfect blend of both survival and horror elements, but the gameplay evolved the genre as it was pretty much stuck in a rut at the time. It is in this way I believe TLoU is that next step after RE4 and showed the evolution yet again for the survival horror genre.
It's like this game was directed by our beloved Michael Bay. Because it was action packed, and it had lots of explosions. And that is with almost the entire cast. Leon's campaign is the closest you're going to get when it comes to survival horror.
Honestly I finally got around to playing this game and I’ve been enjoying my time with it for the most part. Obviously there’s some completely ridiculous sections but I do think it is a lot more fun to play then 5.
Same here. Just beat it for the first time yesterday and I gotta say it's pretty good overall. Jake's is my favorite campaign, followed by Chris, and then Leon. I nearly HATED his campaign, while I found it fun as hell beating azz with nothing but my bare hands as Jake. lol
Thank you Jeremy,you actually understand that all resident evil games can be annoying at times and your right it's a good game and doesn't deserve 4/10 from a lot of people.I will admit,the resident evil 6 review does show what reviewers I should trust.
I just got this a few days ago, I liked 5, and I have to say I'm really liking this so far. I think it is a good improvement from 5. I think Capcom is heading the right direction with the series, yeah they could make it creepier, but the bottome line is its damn fun killing zombies in this thing.
maybe its because he doesnt talk shit like some sites. like gamespot for instance. he offers great reviews from his actual real gameplay experience. reviews use to be like this, until companys got bigger and start to just bad mouth anything they dont like be it truth or lies. you dont need gameplay to listen to his experience of the game. you know this guy has played that game, and isnt just reading from a script. reviews use to be like this all the time when gamers gave reviews, so i guess this is what people want and expect for a review. cause i do. this guy is great. id much rather listen to his gameplay experience than see some random parts of the game while someone tells you its not worth playing without offering you any explanation or reasons why. This is how you give a real review. THX Jeremy jahns
YEah people just jump on bandwagons all the time. That's why there's so much hate here. This game offers a lot to those who master it. I've never played a shooter with so many options for movement which opens up a lot.
4 is the best one for me. Found it hard to get into the earlier ones due the awful camera angles and awkward controls. RE5 was a poor effort, but I quite enjoyed 6, although I've only played through Leon's campaign so far.
I'm sorry but I don't know what gamers saw in RE4. RE6 wasn't that bad. I like how it was put together, however it steered too far from the horror aspect. Code Veronica any day. But the best RE game to-date: RE: Remastered.
+Patrick Covington It was the 1st to transition to over the shoulder & it still held up on the stop and shoot mechanics so when a meat head with a chainsaw is running up on you its tense as hell it had great atmosphere memorable protagonist, bosses and enemies and a good story to boot thats why people love RE4
RE 2 is by far my favorite, but I do recognize how good 4 is, but in 2 in hard difficulty you can't shoot the shit out of everyone, you got to be very careful who to shoot and when to shoot making it more tense as your health items are limited as well, the story is also the best one, the characters are all time favorites in the series and the setting is very well made. I still love to play through it all this years later
Meh, if you have 5 or so games that go on a set formula of "this is a survival horror game, it plays like survival horror, it looks like survival horror, this is our identity" then Re5 basically nut shotted the fanbase with "African killer action simulator LOL WTF IS HORROR" and this game was just the kick while we were down.
I started watching your movie reviews oblivious to the fact that you do game reviews as well. I am pleased to see that you do as I find you the best reviewer on youtube. Although Adam Sessler is very good too.
I just picked up RE6 after over a year of refusing to play it after the disappointment of RE5. I must say it's not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It's definitely not my favorite but it is mildly enjoyable. My favorite RE game is the remake of the original for the Gamecube, closely followed by RE4 and RE Zero. And I have played all games in the main series.
resident evil 5 has the best story and scenery, the villages and tribal thing was awesome. i just found the gameplay abit slow after sometime but its still my favorite.
In order to be scary again, the series have to introduce some brand new characters that never experienced a outbreak. No Leon, no Chris, no Jill, etc. It can't be survival horror if you're playing with a well trained professional that know what it's like to be in a outbreak.
RE 1 was the scarest one of them all, remake made it better. RE 0 and 2 I think had the best story line and puzzles. RE 3 was good ending of the racoon city and mountains of those 4 games Veronica x I feel is a different game of all and its the middle man of the old games into the new ones RE 4 I feel it was the best of the new generation of RE series. 5 was ok but it didnt have any horror at all; it was all action base. I have 6 but I still havent beaten it because I lost interested in it but it wasnt horrible. im planning on finishing it but I get bored tell you the truth. RE ORC im going to surprise alot but I had fun playing it :) am i upset its action , no horror, offshoot of the RE brand? yes i am upset but if you put that a side i thought it was fun. You have to have the mind set of Gears of war with zombies. If you like gears of war action with zombies with cool abilities, you will have fun with ORC. RE Revelution with Jill I heard gameplay is going back to the old games. I havent played it yet but i'm planning on it. when i finish couple games on my xbox and delete them so i have space to dowload the game
DeathWatcher I think RE4 was a great game it just isn't really resident "evily"enough for me, if that makes sense. I really like Code Veronica even though it was a little weird.
yeti112 true the story was bizarre but the gameplay and graphics where pretty freakin awesome and i got to play the game w a buddy that's called win win
Brian Bingman ya but I can understand why you that everyone hates RE5. I mean almost everyone loves RE4 and hates RE5 but those 2 games are alike, RE5 is a copy of RE4 just with co-op. Doesn't make much sense that people love one of them and hate the other since those games really are almost the same.
yeti112 right on yeah i didnt even think about that RE4 was legit awesome. it was the best game for the weii ever. and yeah five was the same. both games great. good call man
***** Well actually Shinji Mikamis original vision was a a First person shooter but it was to close to doom and the playstation 1 wasn't that powerfull. So he chose the Alone in the dark style with prerendered backgrounds. In my opinion Sherry should have been in Resi 4 instead of Ashley since she carried the G-virus embryo something Saddler definitely would have liked to get his hands on
***** I feel like they should have gone with Billy Coen in Resi 7 i would like to know more abot his backstory and where it all ads up to. Billy, Chris and Leon the badasses of Resident Evil;)
Your deluded with nostalgia, the more recent resident evil games have improved to be more superior than re2. For example, Resident evil 4 and Revelations 1. I can't even go back to playing the old games from the 90s because of how poor the controls were.
Bioshock trilogy? Tho Infinite may not be as much horror as it is ADVENTURE, but it is definitely a lot more survival horror than it is action shooter 🤷♂️
very good job doing Resident Evil 6 game review. if any of u guys want to play this game play like he tell how the campaign goes... if u complete 3 campaign then u got the 4 one... the game covrer all the style re give through out the years... Leons Campaign is RE-4... Chris is RE-5, Jake is the mercenary one... trhe last campaign is more like all in one... Code veronica + RE4+ RE5.. this game never gets a 4 or below 7.. its injustice..
Gʀᴀʏ Fᴏx Same. I'm playing through Res 6 now and it's sooooooo tedious, plus I end up burning through ammo because the enemies are bloody bullet sponges, I didn't have this issue with 5 which I enjoyed so much more than 6.
+VermillionCain Talk about hypocrisy. resident evil 5 has tons of bullet sponges like those beetles where you have to force to use up all your ammo just to kill one. If you encountered these issues with 6 than you can't play because 6 controls are improvements no matter what you say.
+Modern Wukong - Res 6 was still a massive pile of shite, they tried to make the game even more of a fast paced cover shooter like Gears of War only the controls are far too clunky for that style of game. As for Res 5, I clearly didn't have the same issues with it as you did.
VermillionCain Resident Evil 5 had irritating controls I find standing still while reloading/shooting annoying and the game forces the partner system to be used so frustrating that I nearly broke my controller. I played one Chapter in 6 with no ammo and just a knife and I had less frustrating issues than what 5 did.
and I still love it for ps1 this thing is rly impressive despite da dialogue sometimes but nemesis scared da ever living shit out of me when he jumped through the window in the police station I actually screamed and my dad was like what the shit are you screaming for and I was like this ugly dude right here (I mean nemesis) and he actually laughed since he played the game
5 is the worst, the dumb A.i. on sheva, the boss battles like wesker, turn off the lights, don't hit jill, the gigante how many bullets do you hit that fucking thing with? Plus the camera goes all over the place when you run, yeah 6 is better, but 4 and the 2 remake are the best of the best
resident evil 4 was awesome, you could see the area from afar, the enemies reacted to hits on different body parts, it had quiet atmosphere, the bosses wasn't fought on a standing point cause you were free to move and feel helpless like the lake boss were you controlled the boat and it didn't feel scripted, the main character wasn't drunk on steroids, it was scary, it was creative with the infamous opening and introduction to the game "which not a single game even dare to rip off" and finally the look, area and feel was perfect! it was dark and gloomy you felt like you were in dark woods in a village or in a castle plus the lightning effects were clear to see and everything wasn't fucking shining as if it was polished. Re5 was always the same with the sun shining and you didn't feel like you were progressing and more like going from level to level. Re6 is just action and no survival and everything is shining. I haven't played re6 but i heard what this guy said and when he said: Zombies that shoot. I said instantly that Capcom has become EA level of stupid and sucking. SHOOTING ZOMBIES?! action? they make different campaigns just to please different kinds of people but shooting zombies? really? the ONE thing zombies don't is being intelligent. It worked in re4 cause they were parasites and it was crossbows meaning you could shoot the arrows down but giving zombies guns is just as stupid as vapires sparkling. The game is supposed to be horror but the effects make it to dramatic. If they want it to be horror then remove the epic music, take away a lot of the effects, make the levels more mysterious and open and don't shake the camera all the time. Shooting zombies "sigh" why.
what r u saying... Shooting zombies... n u laugh... zombies thats a laughing thing... but theirs a very good story behind it... unlike the movie.. the movie really can go to hell... u guys really forgetting the st RE game story.. r u that forgettable guys... this game always evolving... its Starting as a Bio-Terrorism.. n their the game start as a franchise... 15+ years gone u think the game will not evolve
I can def. agree with 90% of those scores. I'm with you though, I'd like to know what the hell Capcom (who is supposedly going BANKRUPT with around 150mil in the bank) was thinking. They traded off the original series play style and atmosphere to do what 99.9% of every game does now *eventually*, it gets dumbed down so "Little Johnny Pisshead" will be interested too. Resident Evil isn't "Survival Action", its supposed to be fucking "Survival Horror". Shit, I felt like RAMBO through most of 5/6 and even 4 was a little to much action, they just got the horror mix right.
Donnie Qualls RE4 was a action game down to the core but it's smart enemy design and level lay out was spot on.. and the gameplay was good and clean. RE5 is just like RE4... but a few things that killed it... "AI partner" "Zombies with guns" "Chris Redfield" and "no spooky enemies or levels" ... But RE5 is a great over the shoulder shooter... but that's it. RE6 is nothing like RE4 or RE6 "dumb AI" "very poor enemy design" "even more poor level layout" "awful gameplay design and layout" and "poor story" Resident Evil just needs a reboot just like Tomb Raider did... cause the story and game has gotten out of hand... will be looked at as nothing more then a number 2 action over the shoulder shooter... when you can go for number 1s shoulder shooters like. Last of Us Dead Space Uncharted inFAMOUS Metal Gear Solid all games with over the shoulder shoting... but even bigger and deeper gameplay and story
Good scoring system, I agree with a lot of them. At first I thought you were only ranking the RE games with numbers in their titles, but you mentioned Revelations, so I guess you ranked by the RE games you have played, which is to say that you left out one of the better titles: Resident Evil Code: Veronica. Imo, Code: Veronica ranks up there with RE1 & 2 :)
ThinkMcFlyThink3 Thank you! I some how forgot about " Resident Evil Code: Veronica" xD I edit it in my post... Imo Resident Evil Code: Veronica was one of the LAST very best Resident Evil games... most people dislike the tank controls but I love them and would welcome it to come back to gaming... cause even today I still play games with tank controls and still move like a pro with it! ;) LOL
Last Green Horn You have bad taste in RE6 I completely dissagree with everything you've just said about it, RE5 you got correct and RE4 still had horror elements and atleast 6 tried those elements.
It's not survival/ horror because the characters aren't trying to survive and they are not scared of the bioweapons anymore. Just like Dead Space 3 is not survival/horror. Having the same character in multiple games be scared of things they are seeking to eliminate is an idiotic premise. Survival/Horror only works as intended with a new character. Jake's campaign could have been but he was paired with Sherry... so no dice. Resident Evil is not a Survival/Horror franchise. It started that way and evolved for their story and characters. RE 7 was major steps backwards just to "revive" the survival/horror. Too much ammo, too much healing items, not scarey cuz country folk ain't scarey, and just a massive let down for a new character who was emotionless and dull.
I think the first was a really great game. I liked everything about it. There were things that I didn't like, but wouldn't change. Like door opening sequences, or hunter jumpscares. The game was balanced perfectly. The easiest mode gave you more ammo than you knew what to do with and the hardest one probably had you knifing at one point or another.
+Crimson Head98 Yeah, revelations 1 is actually one of my favourites ( at least jill's part), but unfortunaly I can't say the same about revelations 2. This might be a bit of a shocker but I also liked 5 maybe because it was the first one I played in the series and the "lost in nightmares" dlc was really awesome.
4 can go to hell? I sense someone who doesn't like change >.> Nah, I'm just joking, but seriously, I love EVERY Resident main story resi game except for 5 and 6. 6 looks alright, but I haven't played much of it. Despite the change in gameplay though, I think 4 is my favourite because of the settings, characters, story and mechanics.
***** Not exactly. I don't mind the RE4 gameplay change but the story was childish and with a lot of holes, even most of the characters were crappy. The only interesting part of the story was the whole Ada, Krauser and Wesker thing about getting the sample. And well, the game could be scarier and harder, it was easy but in the other hand RE5 was way easier. Oh and I forgot to add Revelations in my list, it's more or less decent.
yeti112 I don't see how the story was childish and I don't think it had any plot holes either. I did think it was easy, so that's fair enough. I didn't really expect it to be scary though. Yeah, Revelations was pretty good.
***** As for the story: Saddler kidnaps Ashley, infects her and wants to send her back to kill or infect the President but during game Saddler is totally preventing that Ashley goes back to America, he even was stupid enough to spoil his entire plan and the existence of Las Plagas to Leon. It just didn't make sence and sounds more like a Power Rangers or Super Mario story than a RE plot. It doesn't even show much character development, most were just generic "Ok this is the evil who just does evil things. And this over here is the good one who just acts cool and says how evil the evil ones are". Well, there were a few exceptions. As for fun, yes the game is a lot of fun with nice gameplay and some scary moments but that's about it. Anyway, RE5 did worse when it comes to the plot.
Right I have decided, I'm definitely at long last getting RE6. But not fucking RE4, An most definitely not 7 or 8 😒.... fuck them games. I just played RE5, I really enjoyed it if I'm being honest. I'm playing it again for a second time, with my friend once again. I'll play it on my own somewhen, Probably after my second playthought with my friend. Also on my first playthought their was no rock punching 😂, Anyone else accomplish this on their first playthought .
So you’re skipping some of the best to play arguably one of the most shallow re entries? Don’t get me wrong, 6 is good. But that’s no reason to skip the others.
@@Superunknown190 Well in all honesty I have never liked RE4, since it was released way back in the day. It's because I disliked 4 so much, I didn't play 5 or 6 in their original release time. Obviously I have played 5 and 6, years later on PS4 and loved them. But I still don't like 4, however one thing has changed. I absolutely hate RE Revolution's, that game is such a load of shit. An yh sorry but 7 and 8 are not proper Resident evil game, neither should be called Resident evil. 7 should be called the family, and 8 should be called the family 2 the village hahaha. I don't know what the hell capcom are going for here, but I'm not happy with the direction their going in. It's actually making 4 look like a breath of fresh air, something I never thought I would say.
Jake is like Ryu to the game, walking around with his demon power punches and kicks ready to mess up a couple of baddies. Personally for me, I'm not that stupid, when you see a man with a gun you run the other direction to his mom's house, but after all it felt so good to walk around and be bad ass, just like you wish you could at the office, oh wait already do
Leon's section was my favorite I does feel a bit like RE4. I played it the whole way on co-op, it was pretty good. had some cool sections where you are separated from your friend, those were good too. The game is worth it if you play it with someone else
I played RE4 recently and oh... my... godddddd... The controls are fucking horrendous. I was able to get used to the control and enjoyed the game but the first part was like WTF did I walk into
I do wish that Resident Evil gets another game, but with more impact for melee, storytelling, relevant bosses, and better AI. Resident Evil 6 did give me some hope for Resident Evil series but I do hope it can get more into horror while having decent mechanics.
They should merge the survival aspects of MGS3 with Resident Evil... scarce ammo, need to find food and water, need to find places to rest, might break something dropping off a ledge, might get a deep cut diving through a window. Stuff like that. Maybe add some sneaking aspect to the game as well, maybe if you are bleeding and upwind of a zombie he can smell you and gets agitated? Have a backpack which can store a certain weight in certain pockets which you can swap with other backpacks you find if you are lucky. Have weight effect movement, have equipment like an RPG and customizable equipment, a safehouse, stuff like that. Maybe set it in Raccoon City during RE2 and you create a survivor during those events? Maybe add a co-op mode where you form a band of survivors like a clan in FPS's? Games are giving players choices like this and realism like this and I think Resident Evil could really benefit from that and it would bring it back to survival Horror.
I came from the Future where Resident Evil is a survivor horror again and I'd actually liked Resident Evil 6 played it on the XBOX 360 got it again for the XBOX ONE
Lol holy shit man i remember Diehard trilogy. The top down shooter was the best part of that game. REmake was the best imo followed by 2 and then Outbreak file 1 and 2. Outbreak was co-op survival horror done right!
The original is still my favourite. I love the atmosphere above all else - not as terrifying as Silent Hill, but firmly creepy and feels like you're playing a George A Romero zombie movie. Yes, if it was a movie, it'd probably be better acted, but I LOVE the corny acting / writing in RE1. It always gets a laugh from me and is the perfect way to break up the mood of the game, so that the creepy atmosphere doesn't wear out its welcome. That contrast between creepy and campy is what makes Resident Evil 1, for the original Playstation, my absolute favourite RE game.
Played up to RE5 so far and RE4 was my fav. Played up through 5x. And in RE4 I had the AK47 and Rocket Launcher both with unlimited ammo. Was fun. Love the side quest game.
I come from the future, where Resident Evil is a survivor horror again. Bet ya didn't expect that one

I love how Jeremy says the horror survival aspect may never come back... the next game in the main series is horror survival... well at least he jinxed it
Bryan Sanchez and it's freaky as hell
TexasHockey hey at least it's good
Bryan Sanchez yeah
TexasHockey funny timing though, I'm actually watching a re7 playthrough 😂
I think RE7 is bad. But then RE8 convinced me. I hated how RE7 felt like you played as mental patients, rather than cops investigating places with horror. But reason i am opening up to RE8 is mainly due to, people making jokes on how RE1 sounded like they had pornstars doing the dialogues. So RE8 has these tall Vampire ladies made by capcom... whether its coincidence or not. That was enough for me to be open to RE8. RE7 was bad i just pretend it never happend to me
Jeremy-“just accept the fact resident evil as a survival horror is gone, it’s in the past, it’s probably not coming back”
Mr X-“hold my beer!”
They just remade an old one. I would say RE7 was the one which went back to survival horror.
Then remake 3 came by, and we got back to the fucking start again....
desfefe The original Re3 was action-focused too. The Remake just made it more enjoyable and quicker.
@@hauntedheathen2732
Sorry mate, but that just isn't true. I think we have a faction of fans of the OG who played on normal( which was easy mode, and felt action focused as you were given a machine gun or something at the start), and the ones who played it on the actual difficulty it was meant to be played, hard.
OG Re 3 was more action, but still is a survival horror game, giving me the thrills REmake 3 could only dream of giving me. Remake 3 was not enjoyable at all on the higher difficulties (hardcore etc), and was like the easy mode of OG nemesis on standard. The people at M2 messed it up completely. They made it an action game with survival horror elements. This looks like the Leon's campaign of Re 6, but you don't have the cool moves nor the proper balancing to make to make it work.
desfefe lmfao "proper balancing" of re6?
one of the only people who didnt take a dump on re6
I don't think it's Mikami's fault, it was gamers all around the world in 2002 for not buying and supporting Resident Evil Remake on the Gamecube. Yes, due to poor sales, he decided to make an action oriented RE, hence RE4. RE4 gets a lot of love, most of you on here are saying it's the best in the franchise. That's why Capcom left it's survival horror roots. They did it *because* of us.
Resident Evil Remake bombing was purely Mikami's fault. He opted to release it exclusively for the Gamecube, which was a niche console at that time. The Playstation 2 sold gangbusters, eventually reaching over 100 million sales, and should've been the obvious choice for a release, but Mikami hated Sony at that time (he hated the Playstation's hardware), which resulted in no port. He doomed the franchise at that time due to being unable to get over his own ego. Luckily, Capcom were smart enough to release a HD remake of REmake for the Playstation (and XBox) afterwards, and it sold so well that they decided to return the franchise to its roots. They finally heard the people.
i still have REmake
this game is like a Michael Bay film or a Michael Bay wet dream. explosions everywhere
Or like the Paul WS Anderson RE films?

I love this game. Not even kidding. I played through the campaign several times, and poured over 200 hours into Mercenaries.
Ok, no need to post it a second time
Jaydens Apples computer must've glitches.
200 hours? Not meaning to be a dick, but do you have much of a life?

Am I The Only One That Loves! *Resident Evil 6*?
+YTSProduction No, I liked it too.
YTSProduction 6 was okay, not amazing. Everyone gives it so much shit but I personally liked it more than 5, I hated 5
Taronamic playing right now...& lovin every minute!
no i like it too it was a good action game and i like how this one has more to it than the rest of them more campaign which it awesome it definitely worth the price
Resident Evilfan666 Right?! So much good content, game has mad longevity.
Decided to read the comments and say RE4 was my favorite game. Was shocked to find people hating 4 and saying it didn't make sense. Now I want to go drown myself, but will do so while playing RE4.
RE4 is the best hell yeah
I agree 100%!! I actually enjoyed all 4 campaigns and the story. The T Rex transformation was a little much, but all in all it was an interesting story. My favorite resident evil has to be code Veronica!
Resident evil 4.
I adored 2 & 3 but that moment at the beginning of resident evil 4 (you all know damn well what im talking about) is one of the greatest moments in gaming history for me.
4 was the greatest
most overrated.
I enjoyed 6 espcially the campaign that was not to be mentioned. My favourite RE is 2 and 4. Can't wait for the two remastered
I dont really care about what resident evil was. I just care about what it IS. I love resident evil 6 to death. I know not many people do, but I cant lie, I love this game.
same..love re6 could play it all the time
Manic how do you feel about re5?
Ultimate Gohan I don’t like 5
Re6 was my first and I love it!
Code Veronica is still, my favorite of the "old style" RE games. But RE4 was amazing.
Code was amazing ! BUT DAMN HARD XD 'RE 4 WAS,AWESOME TOO.
Yes 4 was the balls
There's no question about Resident Evil 2 or Biohazard 2 as it's called in Japan is by far the best in the series.
navylaks2 nah 4
Nah 7
Nah. Resident Evil 1 Remake.
It’s one of those rare occasions when the sequel is better than the first
Resident Evil 4 is THE game.

Hoeru Resident Evil 1 remake. Can double confirm lol
Resident evil 3 nemesis is the game
"Jake I forget his last name Jake"
Not sure if trying to avoid spoilers or if missing an extremely important piece of information.
He is Albert weskers son
His last name is actually Muller. He's Wesker's illegitimate son.
That was he first RE game I ever played. My aunt gave me her old ps3 and I played it and love it. I love that it has a bit of everything in it
Resident evil 4 is my all time favourite. Had it for gamecube, wii and currently have it for the xbox 360.
But it wasn't a survival Horror game it had nothing to do with real Resident Evil.
Shure it was a great action game but Mikami should have changed it to a new IP just like Hideki Kamiya did when he turned his version of RE4 into Devil May Cry.
Resident Evil 4. I love the fact I can put Ashley in a suit of armor and she can't be killed or kidnapped. And Leon's mobster outfit is badass. Buy the Tommy Gun and put him in that outfit and try reloading a couple times. What he does is awesome.
RE6 wasn't the terrible, franchise killing game it was made out to be. It was just a victim of the franchise's previous success. The same can be said for RE5 actually.
Seems better than 7 and the part 2 remake based off what I see
@@realamericannegro977 REmake 2 is way better than RE6.
@@AlessandroMarques95 With all the content and advancement 6 has I'm having a hard time seeing how. RE 2 remake even copies alot from that game and does it worse. One can even say 6 is better than 7. Fans can be confusing at times.
@@realamericannegro977 Functionally, RE2 is nothing short of amazing. Did it copy the story?

@@Ninja_Bryden RE 2 remake is heavily influenced by part 6 in many ways. RE 2 remake is a smaller game. RE 6 is a bigger game that had nothing to lean on and took risks.

@@nostromoalien2 Spot on :D
RE5 is seriously not even half as bad as everyone makes it to be. The game is a let down, I won't argue that, but it is still a very good game; you can play it, have fun and enjoy the story, which is a good sequel to RE4 and wraps up the entire Wesker madness pretty well.
I just finished RE6 and it is a completely different story. I've been playing all the RE these past weeks, and I've never felt so much frustration with any of them like RE6. The game is designed to waste your time with stupid deaths. But apart from being as far away from RE as possible, and the incredibly annoying zombie behavior, the game was still entertaining with pretty decent story. Leon's and Chris' campaign made me question why was I even playing this game in the first place, but Jake and Ada's campaign were pretty good, so really the game is decent. Like Jeremy said, it doesn't deserve the 4s this was getting on release.
And btw, I really don't understand why everyone was hating on the whole Wesker Jr thing. Before I played the game I thought it was gonna be something super stupid like Wesker Jr being the villain, but when I found out it was Jake I really liked the idea. Jake is a well written character, and he was honestly the best thing that came out of RE6, but I guess butthurt "fans" will throw shit for anything. I really hope to see more of him in future games.
so much what ?
I enjoyed leons the most but the others were just another 3rd person action game.
I agree with you on everything, except on Wesker's death. I felt that, Not only was Wesker's character ruined in re5 with the whole generic world-conquering madman; I also felt that Sheva didn't deserve the honor of killing him since (although Sheva was an ok character) she was a nobody character who only appeared in one game.
I would enjoy it, but the Ai partner puts me off really hard... I'm not much of a multiplayer guy, so I prefer to play alone. RE5 you really need a buddy to play with, which is why I dont care for it.
I agree with your comment seeing that I'm playing RE6 right now as I speak. I usually don't play games when they come out cause I've got so much other stuff to catch up on and ended up playing RE5 a few months ago which I did enjoy, regardless of this guy's comments. I'm trying to give RE6 a chance but find myself getting frustrated every so often with the lack of control over gameplay. I'm still hanging in there, hoping the game will eventually grow on me and I can add it to my library otherwise I'll just end up selling it back to my local GameStop store. P.S. I still have games that I bought years ago still in their original wrapping, hoping to sit down at some point and enjoy them; Tombraider, Max Payne3, BioShock Infinite, FEAR 3, Farcry 2, Metro 2033.....
Wow people have such a narrow view on what constitutes survival horror.Survival horror is not just about being weaponless and completely vulnerable or being in a dark corridor all alone.Even with strong characters and guns,you can still have survival horror.The world is overrun by zombies.That is terrifying and even if you have guns and ammo to fight zombies doesn't make it any less creepy.When you're hugely outnumbered by zombies you are scared (that's horror) and you're fighting for your survival.I am glad that the series has evolved rather than become stagnant to satisfy the nostalgia of fanboys.
Survival horror is nowhere near dead and might i say it has never looked this promising.Games like Amnesia,Outlast and even Alan Wake have kept the genre alive.Everything suffers from bandwagon hate,games,movies,singers.Apparently hating has become a new trend.
I actually enjoyed RE6 a bit, but no it's not what most people consider "survival horror". This game never once frightened me or creeped me out in any way, and I doubt it did for many others either. Pretty much everything you said that doesn't constitute a survival horror game is exactly what makes one. Why do you think people are so afraid of Amnesia? You're completely defenseless and all you can do is run away. In Alan Wake, ammo was always pretty darn scarce and the enemies were tough and extremely threatening. In RE6, you're a walking armory virtually all of the time and the enemies really aren't that hard to kill. That's like trying to call Mass Effect a survival horror game because you fight to survive against crazy alien creatures that'd probably scare us if it were real life.
Garrus -Vakarian I haven't finished RE6 but i remember RE5 and i was creeped out by the game many times.In the beginning when a horde of zombies surround the house you and Shiva are in,i remember being scared.Yes it's obviously not as scary as Amnesia or Outlast but it's a different kind of scare.
RE6 has plenty of terrifying moments too.It's not always guns blazing action.Even in the action sequences like the giant snake boss fight,you feel this feeling of dread.Watching the world being overrun by chaos and zombies in RE6 is scary to me.It doesn't make me jump off my seat or makes me want to look away but that doesn't mean it's not scary.Horror is not always about being helpless and vulnerable.
To me survival horror is like old school RE and silent hill and games like outlast and amnesia like you said. To many people think games are a survival horror game just cause it has inventory like silent hill or RE. And if the game is a horror game they have to label it survival in their mind for some reason idk why. To me RE stopped being survival horror in RE4, it become action horror at that point. Now that doesn't mean its a bad thing it depends on the execution of it. People bitched that DS3 wasn't a survival horror game anymore, but it never was. The first game was action horror same with 2. It's a third person game with horror elements. Just cause its a horror game doesn't mean its a survival horror game idk why people don't see that.
DungaDunga Resident evil is more action than horror now but to say it's all action and no horror is stupid.There are still horror and survival elements in the game.And personally i like this new direction.Franchises have to evolve and if they would have stuck with the same old horror style in Resident Evil,we would have 6 very repetitive games.Imagine Amnesia 6.
Well said, IMO RE4 was indeed survival horror evolved, but RE5 was neither. That being said RE6 had both Leon and Ada whose campaigns felt very survival horror no matter what the haters say. The other campaigns in RE6 may not have been survival or horror, but they were still good. RE6 just wanted to please any type of gamer, that is all they were trying to do. Did they succeed? Well for me they did.
My personal belief is that RE4 represents the perfect blend of both survival and horror elements, but the gameplay evolved the genre as it was pretty much stuck in a rut at the time. It is in this way I believe TLoU is that next step after RE4 and showed the evolution yet again for the survival horror genre.
resident evil 4 was my fav
Project MorFX my second favorite after 2 (98)
Mine too!
It's like this game was directed by our beloved Michael Bay. Because it was action packed, and it had lots of explosions. And that is with almost the entire cast. Leon's campaign is the closest you're going to get when it comes to survival horror.
Honestly I finally got around to playing this game and I’ve been enjoying my time with it for the most part. Obviously there’s some completely ridiculous sections but I do think it is a lot more fun to play then 5.
Same here. Just beat it for the first time yesterday and I gotta say it's pretty good overall. Jake's is my favorite campaign, followed by Chris, and then Leon. I nearly HATED his campaign, while I found it fun as hell beating azz with nothing but my bare hands as Jake. lol
So weird to hear him say that survival horror isn't coming back to resident evil. Resident evil 7 is one of the scariest games I've played.
Thank you Jeremy,you actually understand that all resident evil games can be annoying at times and your right it's a good game and doesn't deserve 4/10 from a lot of people.I will admit,the resident evil 6 review does show what reviewers I should trust.
resident evil 4 is still my favorite it still holds up today and never feels outdated
I love that one. The first one I played, and I really enjoyed it, felt like a whole game dedicated to Leon's campaign from RE6
I just got this a few days ago, I liked 5, and I have to say I'm really liking this so far. I think it is a good improvement from 5. I think Capcom is heading the right direction with the series, yeah they could make it creepier, but the bottome line is its damn fun killing zombies in this thing.
Lol, thank god they didn't listen to you.
like how he says that the resident evil horror genre is not coming back, and now we are in 2016 and can look forward to resident evil 7.
thats not horror thats a cash grab
chickenwing809, it is horror and even more than res 1-4.
Leon still has the most 90's haircut ever
If you ask me to play either 4 or 6, I don't think I'll ever say anything else than 4...
5 years later and the survival horror Resident Evil has come back with RE7
maybe its because he doesnt talk shit like some sites. like gamespot for instance. he offers great reviews from his actual real gameplay experience. reviews use to be like this, until companys got bigger and start to just bad mouth anything they dont like be it truth or lies. you dont need gameplay to listen to his experience of the game. you know this guy has played that game, and isnt just reading from a script. reviews use to be like this all the time when gamers gave reviews, so i guess this is what people want and expect for a review. cause i do. this guy is great. id much rather listen to his gameplay experience than see some random parts of the game while someone tells you its not worth playing without offering you any explanation or reasons why. This is how you give a real review. THX Jeremy jahns
Jeremy is a good reviwer. If only he did anime
YEah people just jump on bandwagons all the time. That's why there's so much hate here. This game offers a lot to those who master it. I've never played a shooter with so many options for movement which opens up a lot.
4 is the best one for me. Found it hard to get into the earlier ones due the awful camera angles and awkward controls. RE5 was a poor effort, but I quite enjoyed 6, although I've only played through Leon's campaign so far.
RE5 was a poor effort?!!! are you effin serious? that game was awesome. dude whats ur problem. but i agree the RE4 for the WEi was the stuff
Brian Bingman Chris Punching Bolders Redfield and TOTAL.GLOBAL.SATURATION man I love RE5 XD
StewartyMac BH4 has exactly the same controls as the old ones...
I liked 6 it was one of my favorite
I'm sorry but I don't know what gamers saw in RE4. RE6 wasn't that bad. I like how it was put together, however it steered too far from the horror aspect. Code Veronica any day. But the best RE game to-date: RE: Remastered.
Yes remake.
+Patrick Covington It was the 1st to transition to over the shoulder & it still held up on the stop and shoot mechanics so when a meat head with a chainsaw is running up on you its tense as hell it had great atmosphere memorable protagonist, bosses and enemies and a good story to boot thats why people love RE4
Response respected....
REmake is my favorite. I just feel so uncomfortable playing throughout the whole game and that's pretty awesome.
RE2 to me.
RE 2 is by far my favorite, but I do recognize how good 4 is, but in 2 in hard difficulty you can't shoot the shit out of everyone, you got to be very careful who to shoot and when to shoot making it more tense as your health items are limited as well, the story is also the best one, the characters are all time favorites in the series and the setting is very well made. I still love to play through it all this years later
I think people are overacting. It looks cool and I want to try it.
Meh, if you have 5 or so games that go on a set formula of "this is a survival horror game, it plays like survival horror, it looks like survival horror, this is our identity" then Re5 basically nut shotted the fanbase with "African killer action simulator LOL WTF IS HORROR" and this game was just the kick while we were down.
Better review than IGN
His reviews are the most honest and best, always take his into consideration
I actually Loved Resident Evil 6!!!
Resident evil 5 was so much better than resident evil 6 still
I started watching your movie reviews oblivious to the fact that you do game reviews as well. I am pleased to see that you do as I find you the best reviewer on youtube. Although Adam Sessler is very good too.
I just picked up RE6 after over a year of refusing to play it after the disappointment of RE5. I must say it's not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It's definitely not my favorite but it is mildly enjoyable.
My favorite RE game is the remake of the original for the Gamecube, closely followed by RE4 and RE Zero. And I have played all games in the main series.
another bias re 4 fanboy
resident evil 5 has the best story and scenery, the villages and tribal thing was awesome. i just found the gameplay abit slow after sometime but its still my favorite.
"best story" lol no...fuck no.
+Reptar530 lol, wich one did you like
Kasunga Mwimanzi two, but RE1 had the best story.
Ok i wont argue with that, i only played 4-6.. Lol
dude!..
In order to be scary again, the series have to introduce some brand new characters that never experienced a outbreak. No Leon, no Chris, no Jill, etc. It can't be survival horror if you're playing with a well trained professional that know what it's like to be in a outbreak.
Yes, it's the action zombie game genre now, apparently.
Ian Barefoot I bought this game on steam last summer and just realized I haven't played it yet.
Resident Evil 1 gamecube remake. Nothing better!
that was scary as shit
they are actually remaking that remake for ps3
RE 1 was the scarest one of them all, remake made it better. RE 0 and 2 I think had the best story line and puzzles. RE 3 was good ending of the racoon city and mountains of those 4 games
Veronica x I feel is a different game of all and its the middle man of the old games into the new ones
RE 4 I feel it was the best of the new generation of RE series. 5 was ok but it didnt have any horror at all; it was all action base. I have 6 but I still havent beaten it because I lost interested in it but it wasnt horrible. im planning on finishing it but I get bored tell you the truth.
RE ORC im going to surprise alot but I had fun playing it :) am i upset its action , no horror, offshoot of the RE brand? yes i am upset but if you put that a side i thought it was fun. You have to have the mind set of Gears of war with zombies. If you like gears of war action with zombies with cool abilities, you will have fun with ORC.
RE Revelution with Jill I heard gameplay is going back to the old games. I havent played it yet but i'm planning on it. when i finish couple games on my xbox and delete them so i have space to dowload the game
What about the Resident evil gamecube remake remastered edition coming out in early 2015 (I think)?
DeathWatcher I think RE4 was a great game it just isn't really resident "evily"enough for me, if that makes sense. I really like Code Veronica even though it was a little weird.
4:30 that ai impression is just priceless
why does everyone hate resident evil 5? i usually look for split screen co-op games and RE5 was nothing less then awesome.
It´s the story, at least for me it´s the terrible story. If you only look for a co-op have fun game, then RE5 is the right choice.
yeti112 true the story was bizarre but the gameplay and graphics where pretty freakin awesome and i got to play the game w a buddy that's called win win
Brian Bingman ya but I can understand why you that everyone hates RE5. I mean almost everyone loves RE4 and hates RE5 but those 2 games are alike, RE5 is a copy of RE4 just with co-op. Doesn't make much sense that people love one of them and hate the other since those games really are almost the same.
yeti112 right on yeah i didnt even think about that RE4 was legit awesome. it was the best game for the weii ever. and yeah five was the same. both games great. good call man
***** so because the story didnt jib w the re1 story line the game is just considered a piece of shit?
Resident evil 0, Remake, 2, and 4.
4 doesnt need a remake
Robert Hughes I will always love Resident Evil 4.
Booker Dewitt yeh, but that doesnt mean it needs a remake.
I meant Resident Evil: Remake for the Gamecube.
Robert Hughes Resident Evil 4 is good the way it is.
I like rewatching jeremys old vids
Resident Evil 2 is still by far the best in the series.
*****
Well actually
Shinji Mikamis original vision was a a First person shooter but it was to close to doom and the playstation 1 wasn't that powerfull.
So he chose the Alone in the dark style with prerendered backgrounds.
In my opinion Sherry should have been in Resi 4 instead of Ashley since she carried the G-virus embryo something Saddler definitely would have liked to get his hands on
*****
I feel like they should have gone with Billy Coen in Resi 7 i would like to know more abot his backstory and where it all ads up to.
Billy, Chris and Leon the badasses of Resident Evil;)
Your deluded with nostalgia, the more recent resident evil games have improved to be more superior than re2. For example, Resident evil 4 and Revelations 1. I can't even go back to playing the old games from the 90s because of how poor the controls were.
No people are just so overexited by RE4 that they forget what the series was intended to be in the first place it's the same with MGS2.
Re 3 is still the best
Bioshock trilogy? Tho Infinite may not be as much horror as it is ADVENTURE, but it is definitely a lot more survival horror than it is action shooter 🤷♂️
very good job doing Resident Evil 6 game review. if any of u guys want to play this game play like he tell how the campaign goes... if u complete 3 campaign then u got the 4 one... the game covrer all the style re give through out the years... Leons Campaign is RE-4... Chris is RE-5, Jake is the mercenary one... trhe last campaign is more like all in one... Code veronica + RE4+ RE5..
this game never gets a 4 or below 7.. its injustice..
I agree but haters are gonna hate i loved this game i actually played it too much. My first resident evil game was code veronica then zero then 1
I don't know about you but my favorite resident evil game was umm.... Silent Hill.
Oh shit......this game was this old? Damn never thought id ever see him. Without a beard
This is my guilty pleasure game. It's stupid as shit and that's what I love about it.
dude I agree. my buddy and I play the shit out of mercenaries no mercy on PC. so much fun
I thought that Mercenaries was the only good thing about the game.
lol
Liked 5, hated 6.
Gʀᴀʏ Fᴏx Same. I'm playing through Res 6 now and it's sooooooo tedious, plus I end up burning through ammo because the enemies are bloody bullet sponges, I didn't have this issue with 5 which I enjoyed so much more than 6.
VermillionCain RE5 was a more Action paced RE4 clone. Then RE6 went ahead and fucked it all up.
+VermillionCain Talk about hypocrisy. resident evil 5 has tons of bullet sponges like those beetles where you have to force to use up all your ammo just to kill one. If you encountered these issues with 6 than you can't play because 6 controls are improvements no matter what you say.
+Modern Wukong - Res 6 was still a massive pile of shite, they tried to make the game even more of a fast paced cover shooter like Gears of War only the controls are far too clunky for that style of game. As for Res 5, I clearly didn't have the same issues with it as you did.
VermillionCain Resident Evil 5 had irritating controls I find standing still while reloading/shooting annoying and the game forces the partner system to be used so frustrating that I nearly broke my controller. I played one Chapter in 6 with no ammo and just a knife and I had less frustrating issues than what 5 did.
"What was that element that made Resident Evil popular? Survival-Horror? Fuck that, let's make it a third-person COD"
Resident Evil 6 is about $10 now so...
Resident evil didnt start the survival horror genre. Alone in the Dark did.
Daniel Solis Pride the arrogant. It did
thisjointisloose Alone in the dark started it resident evil re-defined it
Sorry but no. There were many games that took up the Survival Horror genre, but it was Resident Evil that defined it.
I really wish Jeremy would review the classic RE games, particularly RE2 and CV.
I don't care what ppl say about this I still play resident evil 3 on ps3 😀
and I still love it for ps1 this thing is rly impressive despite da dialogue sometimes but nemesis scared da ever living shit out of me when he jumped through the window in the police station I actually screamed and my dad was like what the shit are you screaming for and I was like this ugly dude right here (I mean nemesis) and he actually laughed since he played the game

Adnan Delić just got it on ps4 for 12 dollars,didnt get a chance to complete it on the ps3
5 is the worst, the dumb A.i. on sheva, the boss battles like wesker, turn off the lights, don't hit jill, the gigante how many bullets do you hit that fucking thing with? Plus the camera goes all over the place when you run, yeah 6 is better, but 4 and the 2 remake are the best of the best
To me the best were the old school. RE0, RE1, RE2, RE3. RE:Code Veronica, even the outbreak games. Their like will never be seen again.
resident evil 4 was awesome, you could see the area from afar, the enemies reacted to hits on different body parts, it had quiet atmosphere, the bosses wasn't fought on a standing point cause you were free to move and feel helpless like the lake boss were you controlled the boat and it didn't feel scripted, the main character wasn't drunk on steroids, it was scary, it was creative with the infamous opening and introduction to the game "which not a single game even dare to rip off" and finally the look, area and feel was perfect! it was dark and gloomy you felt like you were in dark woods in a village or in a castle plus the lightning effects were clear to see and everything wasn't fucking shining as if it was polished. Re5 was always the same with the sun shining and you didn't feel like you were progressing and more like going from level to level. Re6 is just action and no survival and everything is shining. I haven't played re6 but i heard what this guy said and when he said: Zombies that shoot. I said instantly that Capcom has become EA level of stupid and sucking. SHOOTING ZOMBIES?! action? they make different campaigns just to please different kinds of people but shooting zombies? really? the ONE thing zombies don't is being intelligent. It worked in re4 cause they were parasites and it was crossbows meaning you could shoot the arrows down but giving zombies guns is just as stupid as vapires sparkling. The game is supposed to be horror but the effects make it to dramatic. If they want it to be horror then remove the epic music, take away a lot of the effects, make the levels more mysterious and open and don't shake the camera all the time. Shooting zombies "sigh" why.
what r u saying... Shooting zombies... n u laugh... zombies thats a laughing thing... but theirs a very good story behind it... unlike the movie.. the movie really can go to hell...
u guys really forgetting the st RE game story.. r u that forgettable guys... this game always evolving... its Starting as a Bio-Terrorism.. n their the game start as a franchise... 15+ years gone u think the game will not evolve
You were wrong ^ the survival horror did come back. RE7 IS AWESOME
“Resident evil as survival horror is gone, it’s in the past, it’s probably not coming back.”
I’ve got good news for you past Jeremy
RE4 all the way.
Resident Evil 0 = 8.8
Resident Evil = 8.9
Resident Evil (Game Cube) = 9.5
Resident Evil 2 = 9.4
Resident Evil 3 = 8.8
Resident Evil: Survivor = 6.5
Resident Evil Code: Veronica = 9.1
Resident Evil 4 = 9.0
Resident Evil: Revelations = 8.0
Resident Evil 5 = 7.6
Resident Evil 6 = 6.9
That's my score on each one of them :)
I can def. agree with 90% of those scores. I'm with you though, I'd like to know what the hell Capcom (who is supposedly going BANKRUPT with around 150mil in the bank) was thinking. They traded off the original series play style and atmosphere to do what 99.9% of every game does now *eventually*, it gets dumbed down so "Little Johnny Pisshead" will be interested too. Resident Evil isn't "Survival Action", its supposed to be fucking "Survival Horror". Shit, I felt like RAMBO through most of 5/6 and even 4 was a little to much action, they just got the horror mix right.

RE4 was a action game down to the core
but it's smart enemy design and level lay out
was spot on.. and the gameplay was good and clean.
RE5 is just like RE4... but a few things that killed it... "AI partner" "Zombies with guns"
"Chris Redfield" and "no spooky enemies or levels" ... But RE5 is a great over the shoulder shooter... but that's it.
RE6 is nothing like RE4 or RE6
"dumb AI" "very poor enemy design"
"even more poor level layout"
"awful gameplay design and layout" and
"poor story"
Resident Evil just needs a reboot
just like Tomb Raider did...
cause the story and game has gotten out of hand... will be looked at as nothing more then a number 2 action over the shoulder shooter... when you can go for number 1s shoulder shooters like.
Last of Us
Dead Space
Uncharted
inFAMOUS
Metal Gear Solid
all games with over the shoulder shoting... but even bigger and deeper gameplay and story
Good scoring system, I agree with a lot of them. At first I thought you were only ranking the RE games with numbers in their titles, but you mentioned Revelations, so I guess you ranked by the RE games you have played, which is to say that you left out one of the better titles: Resident Evil Code: Veronica. Imo, Code: Veronica ranks up there with RE1 & 2 :)
ThinkMcFlyThink3
Thank you!
I some how forgot about " Resident Evil Code: Veronica" xD
I edit it in my post... Imo Resident Evil Code: Veronica was one of the LAST very best Resident Evil games... most people dislike the tank controls but I love them and would welcome it to come back to gaming... cause even today I still play games with tank controls and still move like a pro with it! ;) LOL
Last Green Horn You have bad taste in RE6 I completely dissagree with everything you've just said about it, RE5 you got correct and RE4 still had horror elements and atleast 6 tried those elements.
I miss the big lonely and creepy mansion in resident evil. They have to go back to survival horror to make the franchise better.
It's not survival/ horror because the characters aren't trying to survive and they are not scared of the bioweapons anymore. Just like Dead Space 3 is not survival/horror. Having the same character in multiple games be scared of things they are seeking to eliminate is an idiotic premise. Survival/Horror only works as intended with a new character. Jake's campaign could have been but he was paired with Sherry... so no dice. Resident Evil is not a Survival/Horror franchise. It started that way and evolved for their story and characters. RE 7 was major steps backwards just to "revive" the survival/horror. Too much ammo, too much healing items, not scarey cuz country folk ain't scarey, and just a massive let down for a new character who was emotionless and dull.
Resident Evil 6 game > Resident Evil (6) The Final Chapter movie
Duh
I think the first was a really great game. I liked everything about it. There were things that I didn't like, but wouldn't change. Like door opening sequences, or hunter jumpscares. The game was balanced perfectly. The easiest mode gave you more ammo than you knew what to do with and the hardest one probably had you knifing at one point or another.
RE4
Everyone is saying that RE4 and RE2 are the shit, but RE3 and RE1 Remake don't get any love :(
Classics are best. But I like 4 and reverlations as well. 5 and 6 not so much.
+Crimson Head98 Yeah, revelations 1 is actually one of my favourites ( at least jill's part), but unfortunaly I can't say the same about revelations 2. This might be a bit of a shocker but I also liked 5 maybe because it was the first one I played in the series and the "lost in nightmares" dlc was really awesome.
Watching in 2021 lol I will always love Jeremys opinion and listen
Resident evil 1, remake, 2, 3, Code Veronica, 0 and Outbreak. The rest can go to hell.
4 can go to hell?
I sense someone who doesn't like change >.>
Nah, I'm just joking, but seriously, I love EVERY Resident main story resi game except for 5 and 6. 6 looks alright, but I haven't played much of it. Despite the change in gameplay though, I think 4 is my favourite because of the settings, characters, story and mechanics.
***** Not exactly. I don't mind the RE4 gameplay change but the story was childish and with a lot of holes, even most of the characters were crappy. The only interesting part of the story was the whole Ada, Krauser and Wesker thing about getting the sample. And well, the game could be scarier and harder, it was easy but in the other hand RE5 was way easier. Oh and I forgot to add Revelations in my list, it's more or less decent.
yeti112 I don't see how the story was childish and I don't think it had any plot holes either. I did think it was easy, so that's fair enough. I didn't really expect it to be scary though.
Yeah, Revelations was pretty good.
***** I never said I hate it. I give it a positive rating but compared to the old games, it's weak.
***** As for the story: Saddler kidnaps Ashley, infects her and wants to send her back to kill or infect the President but during game Saddler is totally preventing that Ashley goes back to America, he even was stupid enough to spoil his entire plan and the existence of Las Plagas to Leon. It just didn't make sence and sounds more like a Power Rangers or Super Mario story than a RE plot. It doesn't even show much character development, most were just generic "Ok this is the evil who just does evil things. And this over here is the good one who just acts cool and says how evil the evil ones are". Well, there were a few exceptions. As for fun, yes the game is a lot of fun with nice gameplay and some scary moments but that's about it. Anyway, RE5 did worse when it comes to the plot.
Right I have decided, I'm definitely at long last getting RE6.
But not fucking RE4, An most definitely not 7 or 8 😒.... fuck them games.
I just played RE5, I really enjoyed it if I'm being honest.
I'm playing it again for a second time, with my friend once again.
I'll play it on my own somewhen, Probably after my second playthought with my friend.
Also on my first playthought their was no rock punching 😂, Anyone else accomplish this on their first playthought .
So you’re skipping some of the best to play arguably one of the most shallow re entries? Don’t get me wrong, 6 is good. But that’s no reason to skip the others.
GOOD LUCK!
@@Superunknown190
Well in all honesty I have never liked RE4, since it was released way back in the day.
It's because I disliked 4 so much, I didn't play 5 or 6 in their original release time. Obviously I have played 5 and 6, years later on PS4 and loved them.
But I still don't like 4, however one thing has changed.
I absolutely hate RE Revolution's, that game is such a load of shit.
An yh sorry but 7 and 8 are not proper Resident evil game, neither should be called Resident evil.
7 should be called the family, and 8 should be called the family 2 the village hahaha.
I don't know what the hell capcom are going for here, but I'm not happy with the direction their going in.
It's actually making 4 look like a breath of fresh air, something I never thought I would say.
@@saimalishahid1406 played it and loved it thank you.
@@Tricker-the-licker Love to hear it. It is an awesome game
Jake is like Ryu to the game, walking around with his demon power punches and kicks ready to mess up a couple of baddies. Personally for me, I'm not that stupid, when you see a man with a gun you run the other direction to his mom's house, but after all it felt so good to walk around and be bad ass, just like you wish you could at the office, oh wait already do
Leon's section was my favorite I does feel a bit like RE4. I played it the whole way on co-op, it was pretty good. had some cool sections where you are separated from your friend, those were good too. The game is worth it if you play it with someone else
Jake's melee campaign is awesome
I played RE4 recently and oh... my... godddddd... The controls are fucking horrendous. I was able to get used to the control and enjoyed the game but the first part was like WTF did I walk into
I do wish that Resident Evil gets another game, but with more impact for melee, storytelling, relevant bosses, and better AI. Resident Evil 6 did give me some hope for Resident Evil series but I do hope it can get more into horror while having decent mechanics.
They should merge the survival aspects of MGS3 with Resident Evil... scarce ammo, need to find food and water, need to find places to rest, might break something dropping off a ledge, might get a deep cut diving through a window. Stuff like that. Maybe add some sneaking aspect to the game as well, maybe if you are bleeding and upwind of a zombie he can smell you and gets agitated? Have a backpack which can store a certain weight in certain pockets which you can swap with other backpacks you find if you are lucky. Have weight effect movement, have equipment like an RPG and customizable equipment, a safehouse, stuff like that. Maybe set it in Raccoon City during RE2 and you create a survivor during those events? Maybe add a co-op mode where you form a band of survivors like a clan in FPS's? Games are giving players choices like this and realism like this and I think Resident Evil could really benefit from that and it would bring it back to survival Horror.
Great editing. Great review!
I came from the Future where Resident Evil is a survivor horror again and I'd actually liked Resident Evil 6 played it on the XBOX 360 got it again for the XBOX ONE
Lol holy shit man i remember Diehard trilogy. The top down shooter was the best part of that game. REmake was the best imo followed by 2 and then Outbreak file 1 and 2. Outbreak was co-op survival horror done right!
The original is still my favourite. I love the atmosphere above all else - not as terrifying as Silent Hill, but firmly creepy and feels like you're playing a George A Romero zombie movie. Yes, if it was a movie, it'd probably be better acted, but I LOVE the corny acting / writing in RE1. It always gets a laugh from me and is the perfect way to break up the mood of the game, so that the creepy atmosphere doesn't wear out its welcome. That contrast between creepy and campy is what makes Resident Evil 1, for the original Playstation, my absolute favourite RE game.
Played up to RE5 so far and RE4 was my fav. Played up through 5x. And in RE4 I had the AK47 and Rocket Launcher both with unlimited ammo. Was fun. Love the side quest game.
Jeremy looks like a frigging baby here.
