I love CV. It’s the best, mostly unknown one. Calvin has reached the end of the mainline entries to remake that are the most popular, so I would love them to do CV next. Unfortunately, I think it wasn’t popular enough at the time that I don’t know if they will.
Nothing can ever top Resident Evil 2 Remake for me. It single handily got me into Resident Evil as a series. I absolutely loved the Resident Evil 4 Remake but enjoyed the slow methodical eerie feeling of RE2 more. Being a newcomer to the series, I tried the older tank control games and just didn’t have the patience but respect them so much! lol
Holding your long locks while saying first aid spray is exactly what I thought of when they literally animate using it like a hairspray in RE5 many years back. 🤣
Took me a second to click on to that not going to lie. I was thinking why did they touch their hair it's first aid spray not hair spray. Then I was like oh! You clever bitch.
OG RE2 will always be better than RE2 Remake. It's the little details that OG RE2 nailed that mattered the most. Especially the scenario system, story, soundtrack and atmosphere.
Even though it's not one of the best RE games out there I would definitely play RE6 any day than some of the games placed a bit higher on the list. I think people want to hate the game more than it deserves.
I'd have put Resi 6 a few places higher, I understand why people don't like it, but it was my first Resident Evil game, and I've been hooked on the series since then. I've got the platinums for RE2 Remake, RE3 Remake, RE4 Remake, RE5, RE6, and RE Revelations 2. RE2 Remake's platinum was a slog, so many requirements and useless collectibles, RE3's wasn't too bad, RE4 was just a lot of fun to platinum, RE5 was annoying since I game offline, RE6 was a hell of a grind, and Revelations 2 was difficult, but a good difficult.
@hey-lk3zm Yeah, Nemesis was not at all a challenge in the Remake, well except the final boss version on Inferno difficulty, you can barely even move, and the triple slam attack is a one hit kill if you fail to dodge.
RE 4 was my first, so Leon is my first favorite character. Then, Chris and Jill, followed real close by Claire. And Albert Wesker will always be the top villain. So much charm hiding the corrosion inside.
I loved RE3 remake .. I agree on the cutting out the best parts of the OG game .. plus FLOWING the RE2 masterpiece.. still loved it ! RE2 and RE4 remakes are masterpieces in my opinion.. Code Veronica blew my mind graphic wise on my Dreamcast .. the story is amazing.. now it doesn’t hold up .. personally I’d love to see ALLLLL OF THE GAMES REMADE .. the first one yea .. big time .. with Zero built in.. maybe even RE7 as a third person DLC.. I personally think RE8 looked pretty damn cool😊
I like RE3R for what it is but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed. Especially in comparison to the original. Still the chemistry between Jill and Carlos helped and I just love the dodge mechanic. Made all the boss battles a blast. I don’t get the love for Village at all. Feels like Capcom just wants RE to be a supernatural series at this point cuz they are outta ideas. It’s ok at first but definitely peaks with the doll house section imo. Also Chris is beyond unlikable in that game.
While I played RE2, RE1, RE3 and RE:CV,(in that order) RE4 was the first RE I ever finished and played multiple times. I might get the RE2 remake one day just to say I finished it.
Never heard any good things about RE5 & RE6. I’m new to the franchise but every time I listen people talking about these two, it’s nit for good reasons.
I love the original RE1 and I've played it as young as fifth-ish grade (I'm 33) but I ONLY play the remake now. It's just far superior in all aspects and it's a much more "faithful" adaptation than 2-4 (and I love all those remakes too, just in different ways).
@Estorium RE1-R was a PERFECT remake imo. Better graphics, the mansion looked darker, they built ON TOP of the original and tweaked the right things that fans of original expected. The others just feel more streamlined, so you end up with less then before, just shinier
and that's why re6 failed its purpose as a "main" installment in the franchise. If ur a developer and you put more care and emphasis on the side game (Mercenaries) much more than main story, then why not just name this game something else and better be a spinoff entry (Resident Evil Mercenaries 2)
I hope there’s still room for fixed camera and tank controls for RE. They were at their best for me then. Side note, been playing an Indie gem called “Viviette”. It’s top-down beautiful pixel graphics in the original Resident Evil style.
It's always a toss up when looking at a ranking of these games. Honestly, I've probably seen 4 or 5 different channels rank them, and it's about 50/50. Personally RE4 is my favorite, but RE2 remake is very close.
@tylarjackson7928 OH they are definitely both amazing games. And that's the beautiful thing about them that they can be switched around like that and it still feels right.
Ik RE3R is lacking in a lot of aspects compared to the original… but I really enjoyed it, still play it from time to time. But that’s just me. Fav still being RE2R and CV.
One of my top 5 favorite series in gaming, this is how i rank the core games ppl (no spin offs) 👇. 15. Re3 remake 14. Re6 13. Re5 12. Re1 original 11. Re 0 10. Re revelations 1 & 2 (tie) 9. Re4 original 8. Re code veronica x 7. Re7 6. Re8 5. Re4 remake 4. Re3 orginal 3. Re1 remake 2. Re2 remake 1. Re2 original
Great call. While I love a lot of RE games, the OG RE2 was the first I played, and I’m not sure I become such a huge fan of the series if that wasn’t the case!
I remember the overlapping gameplay of the 2 characters being different depending in whether you played Leon or Claire essentially meaning that you had 4 different ways of playing the base game helping it's replay-ability, something the remake lacked unfortunately. I had been hoping for the remake to be more akin to the remake of RE-1 and would love to see someone do a classic style remake of RE-2.
5 will always have a special place in my heart as the first resident evil game i ever played (bc i was too scared of the older ones). also it gave us big hunky chris soooo yeah
Not peak at all but Leon’s campaign was the best one because it kept somewhat close to the atmosphere and what not. And it’s the last time we got Leon for new installments.
I’m so glad 4 didn’t get top spot. I just don’t see what everyone loves so much about it. It’s the only numbered entry that I really struggled to get through. Never completed the original always got bored and gave up but played the remake and finally completed it for the first time ever a few weeks back and I still don’t see it. It drags on way too long. Original RE2 and RE2R are much better games.
I know re6 gets a lot of hate, but you did not need to put it that low down in the list! After Resident evil 5 capcom tried to please everyone, Resident evil 6 delivered that. Yes it was clunky and had it's faults, but it didn't deserve the backlash it got. You (not you specifically I'm guessing it was a group) also put it under outbreak file 2.... And to put the original Resident evil, the groundbreaking games that set the standard at position 10?!?! I know I'm a massive Resident evil fan, so my opinion is biased, but come on?
5 is a absolute masterpiece. The biggest complaint is the bad ai. Which yeah it's bad. But it's easy to play around when you get better at the game. Just don't give them anything you don't want to lose. I usually just give the ai the machine guns because I don't like using them and there is a lot of ammo for it.
Resident evil 7 is not better than the 4 remake. It has more clunky controls, less enemy variety,weakish final boss. I do like the game though but feel village improved most things imo.
Terrible list. RE4 is obviously #1, Rem4ke butchered an iconic classic and should be way lower, same as RE3 Remake. Darkside is far better than this list indicates, Gaiden and Survivor 1 are considerably worse, and ORC should have been dead last.
RE6 gets way more flack than it deserves. Putting it below outbreak file 2 is mean. Yes it had its faults, put capcom at the time was trying to please everyone. Outbreak file 2 with just another rushed spin-off. The umbrella chronicles was just a simple on the rails rehash of games with already played... they should be way down in the list. I appreciate your opinion, these are just mine.
Some of my favorites are RE5, RE6, both Revelations, and both Chronicles games so I hate this list LOL jk But also I can't believe original 2 and 4 are higher than their remakes! Finally RE1 Remake feels like it really should be number 1. Props to giving RE3R love though! I know it is flawed but I love it so much!
A decent list for sure, RE2 is for me always going to be the best. I however would have put RE3 OG much higher, and for me RE7 and RE4 aren’t as good as ranked. RE4 was great, but I think the remake smashed it, and it was the start of a bad time for RE. RE7 on the other hand was the start of it getting back on track, but is not better than RE8 imo. It could have been, if it weren’t for the awful ship section and the none existent enemy variety. But that aside, I love seeing people who know their RE so it was a great watch Psy.
Love the new ones but first has got to be the best. It was such a new look at games. I remember being terrified as a wee kid playing it. Amazing series.
Yeah. Not only did RE7 have to come back from RE6, just months before was the stupid multi player Umbrella game and a few other misfires. If RE7 did not hit, Capcom as a whole, not just RE, were in deep crap. From RE7 Capcom springboarded and hasn't released a truly bad game since (think RE2R, Monster Hunter World, Street Fighter 6, RE4R, DMC5 and more), it all seemingly started with the rebound RE7.
Excellent video! Amazing host!.. I just wish the individual entries could have been cued on the player timeline so you could knew which one you could skip to.. or very least cute in the description with time stamps. Other than that, amazing amazing amazing from everyone.
I am once again asking Capcom to remake Code: Veronica. It has potential to be a 9/10 game.
Capcom*
With an amazing FATHEEEEEEER
Good chance this happens, maybe from an outside team like RE 3 remake.
I love CV. It’s the best, mostly unknown one. Calvin has reached the end of the mainline entries to remake that are the most popular, so I would love them to do CV next.
Unfortunately, I think it wasn’t popular enough at the time that I don’t know if they will.
The original already is a 9/10 game in my opinion, but I agree that a remake could make it even better if done well.
Nothing can ever top Resident Evil 2 Remake for me. It single handily got me into Resident Evil as a series. I absolutely loved the Resident Evil 4 Remake but enjoyed the slow methodical eerie feeling of RE2 more. Being a newcomer to the series, I tried the older tank control games and just didn’t have the patience but respect them so much! lol
Still hope they bring back RE2 Remake Claire Redfield & Leon back for a main series game. They were so good in the 2019 game.
Holding your long locks while saying first aid spray is exactly what I thought of when they literally animate using it like a hairspray in RE5 many years back. 🤣
Took me a second to click on to that not going to lie. I was thinking why did they touch their hair it's first aid spray not hair spray. Then I was like oh! You clever bitch.
OG RE2 will always be better than RE2 Remake. It's the little details that OG RE2 nailed that mattered the most. Especially the scenario system, story, soundtrack and atmosphere.
The fact that Gaiden and Survivor are near the middle and not the end... I have no words
Even though it's not one of the best RE games out there I would definitely play RE6 any day than some of the games placed a bit higher on the list. I think people want to hate the game more than it deserves.
I love RE because it can be serious but also batshit crazy lol.
I love how sy is a complete resi fanatic he's growing on me man
The hosting was perfect for this
I'd have put Resi 6 a few places higher, I understand why people don't like it, but it was my first Resident Evil game, and I've been hooked on the series since then. I've got the platinums for RE2 Remake, RE3 Remake, RE4 Remake, RE5, RE6, and RE Revelations 2.
RE2 Remake's platinum was a slog, so many requirements and useless collectibles, RE3's wasn't too bad, RE4 was just a lot of fun to platinum, RE5 was annoying since I game offline, RE6 was a hell of a grind, and Revelations 2 was difficult, but a good difficult.
@hey-lk3zm Yeah, Nemesis was not at all a challenge in the Remake, well except the final boss version on Inferno difficulty, you can barely even move, and the triple slam attack is a one hit kill if you fail to dodge.
Absolutely abysmal game.
I never understood the hate resi 6 gets? It's not a terrible game I actually found it more interesting than 5
0 and 5 should be higher
Glad revelations 2 is in top 10 though, very underrated game
Just finished Revelations 2 for the first time and it’s a blast. Criminally underrated.
Yes!!!! This is the kind of list you have to do!! Now rank every FF, Halo, mortal Kombat, god of war and any other important video game franchises.
RE 4 was my first, so Leon is my first favorite character. Then, Chris and Jill, followed real close by Claire. And Albert Wesker will always be the top villain. So much charm hiding the corrosion inside.
Thank you so much for putting RE2 at the top slot. It kills me to no end that people practically forget this games existence.
I loved RE3 remake .. I agree on the cutting out the best parts of the OG game .. plus FLOWING the RE2 masterpiece.. still loved it ! RE2 and RE4 remakes are masterpieces in my opinion.. Code Veronica blew my mind graphic wise on my Dreamcast .. the story is amazing.. now it doesn’t hold up .. personally I’d love to see ALLLLL OF THE GAMES REMADE .. the first one yea .. big time .. with Zero built in.. maybe even RE7 as a third person DLC..

I don’t get the love for Village at all. Feels like Capcom just wants RE to be a supernatural series at this point cuz they are outta ideas. It’s ok at first but definitely peaks with the doll house section imo. Also Chris is beyond unlikable in that game.
Do love original RE3. Never had RE2 as a kid, so it has always been my favourite.
RE 3 best of all time
While I played RE2, RE1, RE3 and RE:CV,(in that order) RE4 was the first RE I ever finished and played multiple times. I might get the RE2 remake one day just to say I finished it.
i finished the game yesterday with help of youtube😂 some puzzles are too crazy
Finally a ranking from an actual fan of the series
Nice list! RE2(1998) is the best along with RE5 in my opinion. Based solely on how much fun I had playing through them.
Never heard any good things about RE5 & RE6. I’m new to the franchise but every time I listen people talking about these two, it’s nit for good reasons.
I love the original RE1 and I've played it as young as fifth-ish grade (I'm 33) but I ONLY play the remake now. It's just far superior in all aspects and it's a much more "faithful" adaptation than 2-4 (and I love all those remakes too, just in different ways).
Favourite is the OG RE2
pretty good list
i feel like one of the very few tho that actually really liked Dead Aim
Man,I nearly fell off my chair when you said that , Capcom ran like heck when they realize that the water is, in fact, wet. I love it
Thank you. Rev2 is better than Rev1. God it annoys me seeing people think Rev 1 is one of the best RE games.
Does anyone else not super love the remakes?
Like the play better, better engines and mechanics, but I feel like they subtract more then they add.
RE1 Remake is fantastic, and I really love RE2 remake. I prefer the original RE4 over the remake, though.
@Estorium RE1-R was a PERFECT remake imo. Better graphics, the mansion looked darker, they built ON TOP of the original and tweaked the right things that fans of original expected.
The others just feel more streamlined, so you end up with less then before, just shinier
good list, but i would swap 4 and 2 with their remakes
i think the remakes just makes the games better overall and are just more fun to play
disappointed the original RE:3's mercenaries game mode was ignored. i had a ton of fun playing that
RE6 gets a lot of flak but it’s Mercenaries mode is where RE6 shines. Best Mercenaries in the franchise.
and that's why re6 failed its purpose as a "main" installment in the franchise. If ur a developer and you put more care and emphasis on the side game (Mercenaries) much more than main story, then why not just name this game something else and better be a spinoff entry (Resident Evil Mercenaries 2)
I hope there’s still room for fixed camera and tank controls for RE. They were at their best for me then.
Side note, been playing an Indie gem called “Viviette”. It’s top-down beautiful pixel graphics in the original Resident Evil style.
You really should take a look at Vigil.
Lmao
Oh, I think 8 should be higher. It’s so good and the replay value was so high. I replayed it a ton of times, and it’s much better than 7.
Interesting. There’s stuff in the original RE2 that I missed, but overall I’d say the RE2 remake is by far the best game of the series.
Dig the Jill hat!
Would place 6 above a lot of those spin-offs especially Gaiden, Outbreak & Survivor.
i say they should stop focusing on remakes and put a brand new game of the year game out.
Its nice to see a list that doesnt automatically put 4 above 2. I always thought 2 was better than 4, but everybody seems to love 4 more.
It's always a toss up when looking at a ranking of these games. Honestly, I've probably seen 4 or 5 different channels rank them, and it's about 50/50. Personally RE4 is my favorite, but RE2 remake is very close.
@tylarjackson7928 OH they are definitely both amazing games. And that's the beautiful thing about them that they can be switched around like that and it still feels right.
@@ultigamer2004 Hey, what other franchise can claim having two of the best games of all time? I'm not complaining.
Ik RE3R is lacking in a lot of aspects compared to the original… but I really enjoyed it, still play it from time to time. But that’s just me. Fav still being RE2R and CV.
I'm happy Resident Evil Survivor made it into the top 20, loved that game using the Namco G-Con45! Shame modern tvs aren't compatible with it
One of my top 5 favorite series in gaming, this is how i rank the core games ppl (no spin offs) 👇.
15. Re3 remake
14. Re6
13. Re5
12. Re1 original
11. Re 0
10. Re revelations 1 & 2 (tie)
9. Re4 original
8. Re code veronica x
7. Re7
6. Re8
5. Re4 remake
4. Re3 orginal
3. Re1 remake

Great call. While I love a lot of RE games, the OG RE2 was the first I played, and I’m not sure I become such a huge fan of the series if that wasn’t the case!

I have beaten RE2 so many times. It is the best hands down.
Great list, though I’d switch #1 and #2. But that’s how you know it’s a good series - people can disagree and it’s easily be respected
5 will always have a special place in my heart as the first resident evil game i ever played (bc i was too scared of the older ones). also it gave us big hunky chris soooo yeah
Is it an odd thing to say that Village's lycans could be, because of the mould, called... lichens
THANK YOU FOR PUTTING MY FAVORITE RE GAME OF ALL TIME AT THE TOP. OG RE2 IS UNMATCHED!
You have truly perfected the whats culture video voice 🤌
Ranking RE7 above RE4 Remake is absolutely insane.
I love both. Wouldn’t say it’s insane. Re7 is honestly too damn good.
Resi gaiden looks awesome actually. What a great battle system!
6 has some annoying enemies but the boss designs are really cool. The boss on chris' campaign is incredible. Annoying but really cool looking
I need a Code Veronica remake
I agree that, as silly as it was, RE5 was just a lot of fun. Especially if you had someone to play with.
Anything other than RE4 being #1 is a robbery
RE6 deserves more respect. Leon and Ada’s campaigns are seriously peak RE. It’s just dragged down by length & Chris’ truly awful campaign.
Peak RE? No, no it’s not.
I agree it's a very fun game
Not peak at all but Leon’s campaign was the best one because it kept somewhat close to the atmosphere and what not. And it’s the last time we got Leon for new installments.
I will agree that Leon campaign was one of the most scariest section in a re game….
Leon's was the best because it kept the original resident evil feel, the rest went too far off the deep end with action/mellowdrama
I’m so glad 4 didn’t get top spot. I just don’t see what everyone loves so much about it. It’s the only numbered entry that I really struggled to get through. Never completed the original always got bored and gave up but played the remake and finally completed it for the first time ever a few weeks back and I still don’t see it. It drags on way too long. Original RE2 and RE2R are much better games.
RE 3 ❤

And to put the original Resident evil, the groundbreaking games that set the standard at position 10?!?! I know I'm a massive Resident evil fan, so my opinion is biased, but come on?
Hoping RE9 is still in 1st person to complete the modern trilogy before the inevitable return to 3rd person.
5 gets bonus points for the Mercenaries. Along with part 4s it has to be one of the most addictive games ever.
5 is a absolute masterpiece. The biggest complaint is the bad ai. Which yeah it's bad. But it's easy to play around when you get better at the game. Just don't give them anything you don't want to lose. I usually just give the ai the machine guns because I don't like using them and there is a lot of ammo for it.
I'm a die hard RE fan. The Remakes are better than the originals except maybe 3 obviously.
Resident evil 7 is not better than the 4 remake. It has more clunky controls, less enemy variety,weakish final boss. I do like the game though but feel village improved most things imo.
Still really enjoyed this video👍
RE feels like the fast & furious franchise for video games
I want more of the Claire Redfield we got in RE2 Remake.
I have 2 questions. Why is RE Zero so low on this list? And why are you wearing a choker?!
I want a new Resident Evil remake
We just had one dude. Chill
RE 3 remake is a game I won't pay more than $5 for
Drop the price from $10 to $5 and I'll buy it
I really enjoyed re6 and all the different story lines you could play through but good list
I must see code Veronica & outbreak remade 🤷🏻♂️
I have not seen a video b4 that I cared more about reading the comments then seeing the video
operaton raccoon city underrated
Is he Sick ??
LGTVHD ++
You forgot Revelations 1
Capcom needs to remake code Veronica and also dino crisis 1 and 2
0 is better than given credit for here.
Terrible list. RE4 is obviously #1, Rem4ke butchered an iconic classic and should be way lower, same as RE3 Remake. Darkside is far better than this list indicates, Gaiden and Survivor 1 are considerably worse, and ORC should have been dead last.
Some of these are news to me. Wow, didn't know there were that many.
RE6 gets way more flack than it deserves. Putting it below outbreak file 2 is mean. Yes it had its faults, put capcom at the time was trying to please everyone. Outbreak file 2 with just another rushed spin-off. The umbrella chronicles was just a simple on the rails rehash of games with already played... they should be way down in the list. I appreciate your opinion, these are just mine.
No surprise whatsoever that all the multiplayer games are at the bottom
Knew it would be Si presenting this before I clicked. Looking fly af in that beret
Some of my favorites are RE5, RE6, both Revelations, and both Chronicles games so I hate this list LOL jk
But also I can't believe original 2 and 4 are higher than their remakes! Finally RE1 Remake feels like it really should be number 1.
Props to giving RE3R love though! I know it is flawed but I love it so much!
Zero should be a couple slots higher IMO, but other than that I pretty much agreed.👍
Lower*
A decent list for sure, RE2 is for me always going to be the best. I however would have put RE3 OG much higher, and for me RE7 and RE4 aren’t as good as ranked. RE4 was great, but I think the remake smashed it, and it was the start of a bad time for RE. RE7 on the other hand was the start of it getting back on track, but is not better than RE8 imo. It could have been, if it weren’t for the awful ship section and the none existent enemy variety. But that aside, I love seeing people who know their RE so it was a great watch Psy.
for me, all the classic are 1st and the modern ones quite last.
Love the new ones but first has got to be the best. It was such a new look at games. I remember being terrified as a wee kid playing it. Amazing series.
Hi! Great list, hosted very well too Thank You Psy
Where would revelations 1 go?
wow 6 so low 😢 i mean i hated it but i'm sure there are worse stinkers than that. it's still a good time especially with a friend.
Great video! God ranking!
Seifer look is epic. Like always lov it
Make pride closeted again
Revelations is a top 5 favorite of mine
Isn't there already a RE worst to best video that was done 2 years ago? Running out of ideas it seems on whatculture...
Great list👌
Resident evil deadly silence ?
Never even heard of most of these probably for the best tho
@@hey-lk3zm nah 30 myself played and finished the main games and love most of them I guess I just never cared much for the side and spinoffs
I'm in my early 20s and played most of the RE games, especially the Originals.
now do Silent Hill!
Yeah. Not only did RE7 have to come back from RE6, just months before was the stupid multi player Umbrella game and a few other misfires. If RE7 did not hit, Capcom as a whole, not just RE, were in deep crap.

Other than that, amazing amazing amazing from everyone.
I agree with this list
4 & 2 both original and remakes were the best.
7 and 6 were the worst.
everything else in between.
RE 2 remake 🩵👌🏽 best
