Amazing Tier List. I agree with every game that I played at least. I guess the games that are on D and E rank I will never try but the other ones that I didn't played yet like RE3 remake I will try someday when they are like 90% discount promo lol (Here where I live they are too expensive, third world countries are no joke. A new game on release date in America is $70, here where I live is almost 25% of monthly minimum wage of my country). I remember when I played code veronica for the first time and I almost gave up because I needed to kill Alexia with the knife. That swap character system was cancer. If I knew before I played I would have used more save slots lol.
You played degeneration on the Nokia ngage ? I thought I was the only one that knew about it alot of people don't know that degeneration was turned into a game
Honestly I would say 6 was better than 3remake just out of sheer content. What I paid 60 for at the time I got 40 hours of game play instead of 60$ for a game I beat in under 3 hours with no extra content
I am honestly just glad you didn't do what everyone else does and dump 0 down to the bottom. I liked 0 on Gamecube and I like it on the Switch, though the loading times on Switch are really bad, like 1 minute to go into some rooms bad.
its possibly the first horror game I've ever watched! My oldest brother showed me the game when I was like 5 years old so I have the same kind of nostalgia for it :)
@@armorvil The whole soundtrack was bizarre, not just the basement track. If I remember correctly there was a Japanese music creator who was deaf, and the developers decided it would be cool to let him do the music... then later he was exposed as not even being deaf, he was a fraud. So it got an absolutely ridiculous clown sountrack. A clowntrack.
3 remake is a colossal disappointment. I was really looking forward to the branching paths, extra weapons from Nemy, Raccoon City exploration, unlocking the costumes etc. I really wish we could get a proper remake or hell, just release a new edition from the existing game and add some stuff to it, to make it a lot closer to the og.
I don't think it was a colossal disappointment at all, Jill's design is great, the city is well made, boss fights are fine and the dodge mechanic is fun. I just personally don't think the full price was justified, should've been $29.99 or something.
@@Hooga89 I agreed with that. What the remake has is great and all, it's just all the cut contents that make it the biggest downfall of a game. I think all the hates are justified.
People should stop demanding developers remake their favorite games anyway. It's allowing people to be lazy and just copy/paste ideas. I'd rather new games be made as opposed to just doing with games what Hollywood started doing with films. Fresh ideas is what I want,in new games. Nostalgia makes people trash most remakes anyway,from what I've seen.
Absolutely terrible experience. It’s okay for a 20/30usd game, but he fact that Capcom charged full price for this glorified RE2 DLC is criminal. I bet they’re still trying to pretend it didn’t happen.
Mr X was soooo much better in the remake than the original which added such a scare factor. Gave me such anxiety always running and hiding from him. The best stalker enemy of the franchise hands down. I hope If they remake RE1 on ps5 they make Lisa Trevor a stalker enemy.
Always when he starts talking about RE3R I can feel the sad and the disappointed, as if his best game got the worst remake and will never come back. I wish RE3 didn't get a remake so I can keep wondering how great the game will be when it's released.
So i mailed Capcom a letter when i was akid suggesting that they make a gameboy color resident evil game. My argument was that the GBA was still new and they’d sell more units on the GBC. They mailed me back (really cool paper with Capcom characters all over it, still have it) saying they had no plans for a Gameboy RE, but like the idea. Then BAM, im at the mall like 9 months later and sure enough, Gbc RE. Even included the suggested characters i said they should use. So i like to believe im the reason for Gaiden.
That's so damn cool......someone definitely got inspired from your idea. Maybe they didn't want to admit they would use it cause they didn't want to admit anyone but them curated the concept? I wonder because then maybe they felt you would be entitled to some of the profit generated thereafter lol.
RE3 Remake feels like if Steven Spielberg had remade Jaws and went "ppl rly liked the shark" and started the movie showing the main character on a speed boat shooting in the water behind him as he's chased by a fully visible and roaring shark.
@@Bawkbasoup What annoys me the most about RE3 remake is that if you clip out of bounds in both the Downtown, Clocktower and Hospital Area, you can clearly tell they have intention to use these blocked off areas as part of the game. You can tell because enemies in these areas have zero pathing issues and can move around or over obstacles (e.g. hunters can vault over cars outside the hospital)
That exact same thing Bawk said happens to me with RE4, and I can't even count all the times I've replayed it. I love it, but there are certain sections that you know they are so long, it is so hard to go through, and you know you have so much game left that a momentary rage overcomes you. For me it normally happens with long enough sections, and from the Castle onwards (except certain parts of the Village, like the Bella sisters boss fight and Gigante fight, probably even the way from the church to the lake). The Island just drives me up the wall, like I know I'm so close, but yet so far to finish the game. And not to mention "those" enemies that make me feel like I couldn't wait for it to end: Regenerator, Verdugo, Garrador and the Novistadors.
I love how happy and passionate he talks about each game, going into incredible detail on why he loves and hates every single game, and it's honestly great to listen to.
I try to steer away from those kinds of vids cus there are hundreds of vids breaking down why something like RE4make is garbage, yet the overall reviews say otherwise.
Some people love to act as if they're really emotionally hurt over some features like zapping system, or more detailed b scenarios, it's just the part of internet to stir up the drama Do I feel fine with these features missing? No, of would be nice to have them (extra fixed camera mode would be interesting), but in reality, all the stuff that is missing, is miniscule The core survival horror game is still amazing, and it translated perfectly into 3rd person (which is a feat in itself)
So happy re2 is s where it belongs in S tier💚. Thank you for shutting down the not liking tank controls opinion, that is what the franchise was built on.
The RE3 Remake section really resonates a lot with me. I preordered this game INSTANTLY because I had huge hopes since RE2 Remake was an absolute banger. When I finished RE3 Remake, I felt... nothing. I felt I beat a game, and that's it. I tried to play it again, to get... something out of it. And I just couldn't. I still hope to this day they'll release a better version of this game, somehow. Maybe one day...
RE7 was S+ for me. Favourite game in the franchise. The madhouse mode was so good. I have never played a game before where you are given a gun and you still feel like you are unarmed.
@@Numenorean9217 for me has the best first playthrough in the whole franchise, even if the second half is weaker. The replayability does feel really bad like explained in the video, so that's probably what brings it down so heavily.
@@josemedina1805 the replayability is only bad if you're a speedrunner playing it 50 times a day. It's perfectly replayable to come back to every so often. I've beaten it like 10 times. And village has worse replayabiltiy which was my point.
I totally agree. The game was given so much love by the developers and you can't you feel it. They put in so much effort and the game is fantastic. I can't believe there are people who put RE8 ahead of this masterpiece, everything feels like a downgrade when I play village. Story, graphics, characters... Just everything. RE7 is GOATED comparing it to the new RE and remakes.
I've been watching for a few years and always enjoy your content, but I think this is one of the best videos you've ever done. Great stuff, thanks for your efforts
DUDE! That thing about "hating" most of the Resident Evil's 4 parts is so true, its my favourite game and I found it funny because I never thought about it till you say it
Fucking same, lmao. Even now, I still think to myself how much I hate areas, like the short sewer/dungeon section after water room, or the weird underground segment with the rail cart 😅
@@Nequialyou’re right bro, we’re humans and the feeling of reward of completion is extremely satisfying. I played it super young and it always made me happy lol
I always thought of RE4 original like the scariest roller coaster in the park. You know you’re probably gonna be nervous as hell to get on it, but once it’s over you can’t wait to go again.
The only part that I really "hate" would be the island. It's not all bad but I never look forward to doing it, I just want it to be over so I can go new game+.
I had no real nostalgia for RE3 so the Remake was the most fun RE game for me. Just a rollercoaster ride with a super satisfying dodge with slow-mo. It was short so doing a quick run in an evening was awesome. I put 80 hours into it. Beat it and got all achievements on Xbox and Steam.
Glad you enjoyed it, I grew up with 2 and 3 from the age 14 playing RE2 first. I enjoyed the remake but the amount they could of done, should of done with bits from the original like they did with the 2 Remake felt lacking. Love the end boss though with the rail gun
A nice anniversary gift from Capcom would be the original three games officially on Steam with some bonus stuff. I know i can play them with emulators but it's bonkers there's no official way to play original Re 2 for example.
Re1 is the one and only from all 8 i have never ever played. The remake was mistake, they should have done it like they did with Re 2 remake. Other remakes are cool, even 3 is cool for me.
@@lashaxoperia5917 RE1 Remake was a mistake? Please share what you smoke please. RE1 Remake was done when RE4 wasn't even a thing. RE was not "over the shoulder" at all back then. We only had fixed cameras (or moving fixed cameras in CV) or first person (survivor).
@@lashaxoperia5917 lol go back to call of duty, you're not even the kind of person who plays survival horror, you're an action shooter kid who needs explosions and third person shooting to have fun. intelligence is required to enjoy atmosphere to its fullest and you clearly have none lol. thanks for joining the fandom and helping to RUIN it :)
Dead aim is my absolute favorite game in the franchise, it was the first resident evil I played when I was a wee lad and I beat it in one sitting. Absolute God teir and that save room music is goated 😂
I played through Dead Aim with a gun controller that had a d-pad on the side, and once I got used to it, MAN was that a fun time. Genuinely a great experience that had me playing it over and over. Mixing Resident Evil mechanics with House of the Dead arcade shooting was fantastic, but you had to be equipped for it. If not I imagine it sucked, kind of like playing Outbreak in offline mode.
Original RE2 was my personal favorite. I used to speed run it as a teen before speed running was a thing. I must've played through the game hundreds of times when I was younger. For whatever reason I never really got into 3 until much later but I've learned to enjoy it.
Re7 is S tier imo I get that the ship wreck and mine section were boring but so was the island section in re4 (what was even worse) or the sewers in re2. It is indeed slow passed and also the dlc‘s are amazing.
The biggest issue with RE3 Remake wasn't that it scrapped bad areas while the others took the bad areas and improved them. It was that it scrapped GOOD areas and then didn't even replace them with anything at all. I liked the lab thing at the end, however short it was, and they made the factory a warehouse that sandwiches between the lab and hospital. But that doesn't fix what they did wrong, which was 90% of the game. Even the areas where Nemesis came out were scripted. He shows up at the same spot everytime and he is as random as Mr X in RE2 Remake, as in not much at all. He just comes straight at you until you get to the point where he just stops. After that, the rest of the game is a straight line. Not to mention that and the very short flamethrower and RPG parts he is in are the only times you see him in his humanoid form. After that it is just 2 mutated monster fights and done. I know there are 3 but two of them are literaly the same thing, just with a few random zombie added to make it harder and for no reason they shove the camera up Jill's ass to make it impossible to see them. It is the only part in the game where the camera is so close to you at all times...... and it was done intentionally to make it harder.
I love RE0. Either sending Billy or Rebecca up, its the fun bit you can experience the different gameplay between the both. I find it challenging but fun by placing Billy up and never thought of it as annoyed. But I am one of the few that think 0 is fun
Missed this series completely in my youth - just saw my uncle once play CV on Dreamcast fighting the Nosferatu in the fog. I had a japanese version of Dino Crisis 2, tho and I couldn't figure out how to progress short after the first T-Rex encounter. Now I'm playing some of the newer ones at least - would be cool if the classics would release on Steam/Playstation - dunno why they are not.
I share your views on R3make, the og3 is also my favorite one from the series by far. After i was done with 2's remake i remembered being so hyped about R3make and the whole "explore more of Racoon City" idea but in the end i was so dissapointed with what we got. There was a lot of potential for this even fiercer Nemesis to stalk you as you explored trough the city!
Dude you were totally dead-on about the Tyrant fight in RE:CVX. I actually had a Dreamcast back in the day and played the original version, and I got completely soft locked and gave up at the Tyrant fight on the plane. Years passed and I later played the re-released version on PS2, and wouldn't you know it, I STILL got stuck at that part, and I had to start over and hoard my ammo.
Yeah I Love Village as it feels like a mix of RE4 and 7 but everytime I play RE8 I just wish it was more scary like RE7 and they made Lady D section bigger. RE7 isn't perfect tho as the ship section just drags forever.
Thinking 7 is better than Village is insane to me. 7 has literally no enemy variety, the whole game is nothing but molded and insects during one section, and the game falls off considerably after the first section with Jack and Marguerite. Combat is also a lot worse than in Village. I'm not saying Village is perfect but it's a way better game than 7 in my opinion.
@@MarkHogan994game is famous for its “horror” yet to me it stops being scary after the first hour and even then it’s never scary after a first play through and this is coming from someone who gets scared somewhat easily in games. If I replay RE2R there will still be a moment or two that gets me even after 20+ play through meanwhile re7 never once scared me after the 2nd.
Far too many people missed out on the joy that was playing Outbreak online back in its time. I'd play until the sun came up the next morning and it wasn't enough. And when the PS3 came out and playing it on that shaved *one or two seconds* off the initial level cinematic load times, giving me that head start towards grabbing what I wanted, oh baby. Simpler, sweeter times.
RE3 remake isnt a bad game, its a solid game. its just a shit tier remake. thats the reason people hate it. honestly I liked it as a game, but hated it as a remake.
RE3R is what make me realize that your brain can actually block very negative memories you may have. That game is what made me get a PS4, and I can only remember I went in blind. I just can't remember anything of what I thought on that first playthrough.
I will NEVER forgive those previews saying you can use the subway to fast travel to different parts of the city. That plus having the map of the city in the collectors edition I was CERTAIN that we'd have the whole city. So disappointing my god.
I’m amazed, they have not re-released outbreak, because that game has so much potential. I played it quite a bit when the servers were alive, and it was an incredible experience
I appreciate the fact that you didn't do an F tier, but stopped at E, because I really did have a lot of fun in re:verse and especially Umbrella Corps, but I can understand others opinions on it.
Loved this whole tierlist man! There's something wholesome about listening to people rant about stuff they love. And hey I might piss people off but I lowkey like love RE6. The gameplay is great (Mercs kinda goated in that game), the cast is a banger (even better if you like CR), storywise SOME parts are good, but yeah on the whole it's a mess, but I freaking love it haha, it's definitely not my favourite, but it's not the car crash people claim it is imo!
OG resident evil 2 is my favorite by FAR and still the GREATEST survival horror game ever created. I replay both scenarios atleast once a year. Good vid though!
For me Resident evil remake,resident evil hd remastered,resident evil 5,resident evil hd remastered number 1 s rank spot of the best resident evil video games in the franchise now and forever ❤️. I have been a hard core resident evil fan for 27 years out of 37 years of my life time now and forever ❤️
Resident evil 3make was one of the worst things to ever happen to gaming, let alone the Resident Evil franchise... They ruined Jill Valentine and Nemesis.... Like WTF😢
@@bobross8585 if you've played the og you know. First encounter with Mikhail in og he lies wounded in the cable car. "Oh this looks bad" Jill says when she sees his condition. 3 remake Jill: "HOW'S THE ESCAPE GOING FUCKFACE?!"
@DirtyDerbi why do you people always assume when people disagree with you that they haven't played the original? I have, plenty of times. Even Bawk disagrees with you in this video lol.
Re1 Remake blew my mind when my neighbors across the street got it for GameCube when it came out. I had previously owned the original 3 and CVX at the time. RE1 Remake is my top 1 along with 2 and 4 when remakes are involved. As for originals Nemesis is my top 1
Amazing. Thank you for this. I didn't have the chance to play File #2 or the online features, but my older brother and I absolutely loved File #1. We never played anything like it and I still never beat Decisions, Decisions.
Hi man. Im from Spain and english obviously is not my first language. But i love RE franchise so i saw the entire video just because you opinion (honestly) is 100% as mine. I mean its increible how 2 people from different countries, different culture, different age (probably) could have THE SAME opinion about an entire franchise. It's crazy for me. I love this franchise so much and It's a pleasure hace the same opinion. Take care man.
Looking at the playtime of the re games I have on steam really makes me realize how short re3 remake is, like to get all achievements it took 41 hours while it took 67 hours for re2 remake and 100 hours for re4 remake
I was lucky enough to climb aboard the Resident Evil train when it was released in 1996. I still remember the old PS1 longbox and the art inside was terrifying back then! Now I think back on it, I wish they would've introduced the quick turn instead of auto-aim. Or make auto-aiming a function by pressing R2 to cycle through enemies like in RE3.
Outbreak and File 2 is a core part of my childhood. So so many hours spent playing with friends. The game had a leaderboard where you could check stats and I remember it showing I had nearly 850 hours on File 2
I think the best way to describe RE3 Remake is "Good/Great game, but terrible remake". Like, looked at in a vacuum, its arguably good and very well paced, but when taking into account the remakes of RE1/2/4, it pales in comparison
Awesome video Bawk! I like how you appreciate different aspects of RE games - even the smallest things. I 'm watching your videos and stream from few years. It's so awesome that after all those years you still love to play RE games which makes it very enjoyable to watch! This particular video made me thinking about my ranking and it's indeed not that easy to do 😃 My favorite ones are: RE1 Remake, RE2 OG, RE2 Remake and RE3 OG so it would be my S tier. I love other games too: RE 0, CV, RE4 Remake, RE7, and RE8, but I noticed that I don't like to go back to them that often, even though the games have an amazing gameplay and overall setting. I like to explore places like Spencer Mansion, R.P.D Station and Clock Tower. Love to dive into more calming, but yet creepy mood that allows me to relax after hard day. Spending some nostalgic time and listening to save room theme is also a huge part of it. RE4, RE7 and RE8 are really action packed, which is kinda cool, but I have to feel quite relaxed to play them. I'd personally prefer to have some bigger section of the game focused on the exploration and finding the items to solve the puzzles placed all around 😊 Anyways, this was an awesome idea for the video - it was really cool to hear your expertise on each of the RE game in such a detailed way and see how you'd rank them at the same time. Thanks! 😊
When i was a kid, i didnt even know that RE3 has a dodge system haha CVX was so scary with the dead bodies in the bunker bed :SS RE:Village had a better treasure system than RE4, where you found actual items from characters and the trader responded to them. In RE4 you just found the same items over and over and they had no background. Also wouldnt mind having so very hard puzzles, they shouldnt stop you from progressing just giving you something nice that you wouldnt get otherwise. Even some hard fights that arent necessary but if you do them, you get special items or maybe change the ending slightly
The moment you've put original RE3 and RE2 to an S rank with original RE1 being at least an A, I breathed a sigh of relief. Nice chart overall! I actually agree on most positions with minor shifts here and there due to... certain preferences.
my favorite thing about Revelations is that it has an actual fun and challenging final boss, instead of the classic "just stall for a while until you're given an OP mega gun to finish the boss"
It's a real shame R3make was not done internally at Capcom so it didn't get the care it deserved. I forgot the name of the studio responsible for it but Maximillian went into a little detail on the studio. The silver lining was that it forced them to make it RE4make internally.
I really appreciate how thoroughly you went with explaining your logic for your tier list. The explanation gives a solid reason why they are in the spots they are and thank you for doing that. Please do more tier list in the future for other of your faves :)
Bawk, I'm a longtime viewer and I love your content. I just watched this the whole way through and loved your in-depth reasoning and analysis of each game.
Loved your play throughs. I’m a big fan of RE0 (my apologies) ha ha. But when you first pick up the hook shot it actually tells you it has a 50kg weight limit. So I think it’s the game telling you to send Rebecca. But my favourite is RE Rev 2. Love the replay ability. Keep up the streams, and a big hi from England.
I bought a PS2 for when outbreak was comming out, and I never had an issue playing it online or getting friends to play it online. So Im not sure why people make it sound like it was very rare to be able to play it the proper way "online". It came out in like 2003 or 2004 and pretty much everyone I knew had atleast decent internet on a dedicated line. That being said I didnt grow up in a small town so that was just my experience with it.
No matter what, I keep going back to your RE Village playthrough when the PIG in the farm always scares you... Your face, man haha... Or I go back to RE 3 Remake Inferno run when Nemi scared you because Jill couldn't dodge... Your scream was genuine shock! Lol
I know tier lists are very subjective but I think we can all agree on this :) 1:11:25
Amazing Tier List. I agree with every game that I played at least. I guess the games that are on D and E rank I will never try but the other ones that I didn't played yet like RE3 remake I will try someday when they are like 90% discount promo lol (Here where I live they are too expensive, third world countries are no joke.

Resident evil rebirth on game cube gives me someting similar with the Crimson Head you know the zombie you thought he was dead. Lol @@jerrysaen
Nemesis showing up was always scripted. You played the game and you knew when he was showing up. I hoped re3r would make him follow you everywhere

Literally the exact same opinion I have. I'd have rather gotten nothing than the 3R we got

RE3 Remake feels like if Steven Spielberg had remade Jaws and went "ppl rly liked the shark" and started the movie showing the main character on a speed boat shooting in the water behind him as he's chased by a fully visible and roaring shark.
Yeah basically
@@Bawkbasoup What annoys me the most about RE3 remake is that if you clip out of bounds in both the Downtown, Clocktower and Hospital Area, you can clearly tell they have intention to use these blocked off areas as part of the game. You can tell because enemies in these areas have zero pathing issues and can move around or over obstacles (e.g. hunters can vault over cars outside the hospital)
That exact same thing Bawk said happens to me with RE4, and I can't even count all the times I've replayed it. I love it, but there are certain sections that you know they are so long, it is so hard to go through, and you know you have so much game left that a momentary rage overcomes you. For me it normally happens with long enough sections, and from the Castle onwards (except certain parts of the Village, like the Bella sisters boss fight and Gigante fight, probably even the way from the church to the lake). The Island just drives me up the wall, like I know I'm so close, but yet so far to finish the game. And not to mention "those" enemies that make me feel like I couldn't wait for it to end: Regenerator, Verdugo, Garrador and the Novistadors.

Definitely ragebait. Probably the best survival horror game of this generation.
Some people love to act as if they're really emotionally hurt over some features like zapping system, or more detailed b scenarios, it's just the part of internet to stir up the drama
Do I feel fine with these features missing? No, of would be nice to have them (extra fixed camera mode would be interesting), but in reality, all the stuff that is missing, is miniscule
The core survival horror game is still amazing, and it translated perfectly into 3rd person (which is a feat in itself)
Hate to say it I hate re2 remake I don't think it's good I think it was a cash grab polished yes solid game play yes I just don't like remakes
@@TimmyDatooth-fr5dfSo it has good gameplay and polished design, but it’s a cash grab because you don’t like remakes?
So happy re2 is s where it belongs in S tier💚. Thank you for shutting down the not liking tank controls opinion, that is what the franchise was built on.
Re4 is the only 10/10 game Re game and isnt even number 1, funny
@@user-if2uz4ur8oeveryone is entitled to their own opinion, re2 is my favorite game
The RE3 Remake section really resonates a lot with me.
I preordered this game INSTANTLY because I had huge hopes since RE2 Remake was an absolute banger.
When I finished RE3 Remake, I felt... nothing. I felt I beat a game, and that's it. I tried to play it again, to get... something out of it. And I just couldn't.
I still hope to this day they'll release a better version of this game, somehow. Maybe one day...

RE7 was S+ for me. Favourite game in the franchise. The madhouse mode was so good. I have never played a game before where you are given a gun and you still feel like you are unarmed.
RE7 is S, village is a C or lower. Kind of disappointed bawk had village higher than 7
@@Numenorean9217 for me has the best first playthrough in the whole franchise, even if the second half is weaker. The replayability does feel really bad like explained in the video, so that's probably what brings it down so heavily.
@@josemedina1805 the replayability is only bad if you're a speedrunner playing it 50 times a day. It's perfectly replayable to come back to every so often. I've beaten it like 10 times. And village has worse replayabiltiy which was my point.
I totally agree. The game was given so much love by the developers and you can't you feel it. They put in so much effort and the game is fantastic. I can't believe there are people who put RE8 ahead of this masterpiece, everything feels like a downgrade when I play village. Story, graphics, characters... Just everything. RE7 is GOATED comparing it to the new RE and remakes.
@@peolfpetler8500 I don’t know about graphics, everything else is true, but village was absolutely beautiful.
I've been watching for a few years and always enjoy your content, but I think this is one of the best videos you've ever done.
Great stuff, thanks for your efforts
Thanks so much
DUDE! That thing about "hating" most of the Resident Evil's 4 parts is so true, its my favourite game and I found it funny because I never thought about it till you say it
Fucking same, lmao. Even now, I still think to myself how much I hate areas, like the short sewer/dungeon section after water room, or the weird underground segment with the rail cart 😅
I think its because those are challenging parts and when we overcome them we feel good idfk lol
@@Nequialyou’re right bro, we’re humans and the feeling of reward of completion is extremely satisfying. I played it super young and it always made me happy lol
I always thought of RE4 original like the scariest roller coaster in the park. You know you’re probably gonna be nervous as hell to get on it, but once it’s over you can’t wait to go again.
The only part that I really "hate" would be the island. It's not all bad but I never look forward to doing it, I just want it to be over so I can go new game+.
I had no real nostalgia for RE3 so the Remake was the most fun RE game for me. Just a rollercoaster ride with a super satisfying dodge with slow-mo. It was short so doing a quick run in an evening was awesome. I put 80 hours into it. Beat it and got all achievements on Xbox and Steam.
Glad you enjoyed it, I grew up with 2 and 3 from the age 14 playing RE2 first. I enjoyed the remake but the amount they could of done, should of done with bits from the original like they did with the 2 Remake felt lacking. Love the end boss though with the rail gun
A nice anniversary gift from Capcom would be the original three games officially on Steam with some bonus stuff. I know i can play them with emulators but it's bonkers there's no official way to play original Re 2 for example.
Why just PC? What about console dude...? Put them on PS4 & PS5 as well
@@Ugly5872the Director’s Cut of RE1 is on PS4/5, I agree they could’ve done something similar with RE2 and RE3

Re1 is the one and only from all 8 i have never ever played. The remake was mistake, they should have done it like they did with Re 2 remake. Other remakes are cool, even 3 is cool for me.
@@lashaxoperia5917 RE1 Remake was a mistake? Please share what you smoke please.
RE1 Remake was done when RE4 wasn't even a thing. RE was not "over the shoulder" at all back then. We only had fixed cameras (or moving fixed cameras in CV) or first person (survivor).

Dead aim is my absolute favorite game in the franchise, it was the first resident evil I played when I was a wee lad and I beat it in one sitting. Absolute God teir and that save room music is goated 😂
I feel you
LOVE THE SAVE MUSIC!! I've had it on repeat many times through my life
I played through Dead Aim with a gun controller that had a d-pad on the side, and once I got used to it, MAN was that a fun time. Genuinely a great experience that had me playing it over and over. Mixing Resident Evil mechanics with House of the Dead arcade shooting was fantastic, but you had to be equipped for it. If not I imagine it sucked, kind of like playing Outbreak in offline mode.
I watched the whole thing and oh boy I agreed. Nice and respectful (when possible XD) review for each game, love it!
Original RE2 was my personal favorite. I used to speed run it as a teen before speed running was a thing. I must've played through the game hundreds of times when I was younger.
For whatever reason I never really got into 3 until much later but I've learned to enjoy it.
Re7 is S tier imo I get that the ship wreck and mine section were boring but so was the island section in re4 (what was even worse) or the sewers in re2. It is indeed slow passed and also the dlc‘s are amazing.
The biggest issue with RE3 Remake wasn't that it scrapped bad areas while the others took the bad areas and improved them. It was that it scrapped GOOD areas and then didn't even replace them with anything at all. I liked the lab thing at the end, however short it was, and they made the factory a warehouse that sandwiches between the lab and hospital. But that doesn't fix what they did wrong, which was 90% of the game. Even the areas where Nemesis came out were scripted. He shows up at the same spot everytime and he is as random as Mr X in RE2 Remake, as in not much at all. He just comes straight at you until you get to the point where he just stops. After that, the rest of the game is a straight line. Not to mention that and the very short flamethrower and RPG parts he is in are the only times you see him in his humanoid form. After that it is just 2 mutated monster fights and done. I know there are 3 but two of them are literaly the same thing, just with a few random zombie added to make it harder and for no reason they shove the camera up Jill's ass to make it impossible to see them. It is the only part in the game where the camera is so close to you at all times...... and it was done intentionally to make it harder.
BRO, WHY WE LOOK THE SAME? Are you my brother?
I love RE0. Either sending Billy or Rebecca up, its the fun bit you can experience the different gameplay between the both. I find it challenging but fun by placing Billy up and never thought of it as annoyed. But I am one of the few that think 0 is fun
Resistance was actually fun. It deserves to be higher. RE3 remake should be much lower.
Resistance had fun ideas actually,nowadays sucks what becomes of it.
Damn I never thought I'd see someone like RE Village more than RE7, to each their own I guess.
RE7 was one of my favourite entries. It was actually scary. Hadn't felt like that since I was a kid playing OG RE
Missed this series completely in my youth - just saw my uncle once play CV on Dreamcast fighting the Nosferatu in the fog.
I had a japanese version of Dino Crisis 2, tho and I couldn't figure out how to progress short after the first T-Rex encounter.
Now I'm playing some of the newer ones at least - would be cool if the classics would release on Steam/Playstation - dunno why they are not.
I share your views on R3make, the og3 is also my favorite one from the series by far. After i was done with 2's remake i remembered being so hyped about R3make and the whole "explore more of Racoon City" idea but in the end i was so dissapointed with what we got. There was a lot of potential for this even fiercer Nemesis to stalk you as you explored trough the city!
Dude you were totally dead-on about the Tyrant fight in RE:CVX. I actually had a Dreamcast back in the day and played the original version, and I got completely soft locked and gave up at the Tyrant fight on the plane. Years passed and I later played the re-released version on PS2, and wouldn't you know it, I STILL got stuck at that part, and I had to start over and hoard my ammo.
''What franchise are they celebrating, fucking Call Of Duty'' - Bawkbasoup (about Umbrella Corps) 🤣
thinking village is better than 7 is insane to me.
Yeah I Love Village as it feels like a mix of RE4 and 7 but everytime I play RE8 I just wish it was more scary like RE7 and they made Lady D section bigger.
RE7 isn't perfect tho as the ship section just drags forever.
7 is alot better than village. I remember playing re 7 and having a bunch of fun and was pretty scary. For village....ehh
7 is so much better than Village. I loved the actual village and castle part of Village but it fell off hard for me after that.
Thinking 7 is better than Village is insane to me. 7 has literally no enemy variety, the whole game is nothing but molded and insects during one section, and the game falls off considerably after the first section with Jack and Marguerite. Combat is also a lot worse than in Village. I'm not saying Village is perfect but it's a way better game than 7 in my opinion.
@@MarkHogan994game is famous for its “horror” yet to me it stops being scary after the first hour and even then it’s never scary after a first play through and this is coming from someone who gets scared somewhat easily in games. If I replay RE2R there will still be a moment or two that gets me even after 20+ play through meanwhile re7 never once scared me after the 2nd.
Far too many people missed out on the joy that was playing Outbreak online back in its time. I'd play until the sun came up the next morning and it wasn't enough. And when the PS3 came out and playing it on that shaved *one or two seconds* off the initial level cinematic load times, giving me that head start towards grabbing what I wanted, oh baby. Simpler, sweeter times.
RE3 remake isnt a bad game, its a solid game.
its just a shit tier remake.
thats the reason people hate it.
honestly I liked it as a game, but hated it as a remake.
Re 3 remake its so short thats why the people hate them
@@komari3339 thats not why people hate it, people hate it because they called it a remake and only remade 1/4 of the original game.
Nah I thought it was a 3/10 game
@@komari3339that’s definitely not why
RE3R is what make me realize that your brain can actually block very negative memories you may have. That game is what made me get a PS4, and I can only remember I went in blind. I just can't remember anything of what I thought on that first playthrough.
Resident Evil Village is soooooooo unique!
I’m loving it ever since I played day 1!
I will NEVER forgive those previews saying you can use the subway to fast travel to different parts of the city. That plus having the map of the city in the collectors edition I was CERTAIN that we'd have the whole city. So disappointing my god.
I’m amazed, they have not re-released outbreak, because that game has so much potential.
I played it quite a bit when the servers were alive, and it was an incredible experience
Brilliant video bawk
RE3 OG is incredible. Number one game I'm happy to replay
Ah yes~
We have jill sandwhich, Leon pancake, and now *Birkin helicopter*
Cheers on the marathon! It was so much fun! Love ya bawk!
This franchise will always be special to me. Been a Resident Evil nerd since I was 10 in 2002. REmake was the first one I played.
This was great. Would love a similar tier list but ranking each game from a speedrunning perspective (for the games you’ve ran)
the thumbnail gives me heart attack, well played bawkba, well played...
I appreciate the fact that you didn't do an F tier, but stopped at E, because I really did have a lot of fun in re:verse and especially Umbrella Corps, but I can understand others opinions on it.
For me I actually really liked Resistance, just wish it was improved on.
Lol, a dumb letter doesn't change the fact they are at the bottom
Loved this whole tierlist man! There's something wholesome about listening to people rant about stuff they love.
And hey I might piss people off but I lowkey like love RE6. The gameplay is great (Mercs kinda goated in that game), the cast is a banger (even better if you like CR), storywise SOME parts are good, but yeah on the whole it's a mess, but I freaking love it haha, it's definitely not my favourite, but it's not the car crash people claim it is imo!
OG resident evil 2 is my favorite by FAR and still the GREATEST survival horror game ever created. I replay both scenarios atleast once a year. Good vid though!
Same. Truly the peak of RE not that overrated RE4.
Man I always appreciate a gigachad survivor / dead aim enthusiast
Yaaas baaatch slaaay
RE3 Remake could have been the best game in the series. Imagine being able to explore the entirety of Racoon City, not knowing when Nemesis is near.
Thumbnail clickbait
Clearly worked if you clicked
what should he be doin instead. put his legit ranking in the thumbnail so nobody is watching the video ?
Your tier list just so happens to perfectly align with mine. Let's goooo!
For me Resident evil remake,resident evil hd remastered,resident evil 5,resident evil hd remastered number 1 s rank spot of the best resident evil video games in the franchise now and forever ❤️. I have been a hard core resident evil fan for 27 years out of 37 years of my life time now and forever ❤️
Resident evil 3make was one of the worst things to ever happen to gaming, let alone the Resident Evil franchise...

"In the whole franchise": The Video
Re1 Remake blew my mind when my neighbors across the street got it for GameCube when it came out.
I had previously owned the original 3 and CVX at the time.
RE1 Remake is my top 1 along with 2 and 4 when remakes are involved. As for originals Nemesis is my top 1
Re6 gameplay is overdesigned but if you master it its almost like playing Yakuza 5 with guns + re4 and thats FUCKING AMAZING
Amazing. Thank you for this. I didn't have the chance to play File #2 or the online features, but my older brother and I absolutely loved File #1. We never played anything like it and I still never beat Decisions, Decisions.
Hi man. Im from Spain and english obviously is not my first language.
But i love RE franchise so i saw the entire video just because you opinion (honestly) is 100% as mine.
I mean its increible how 2 people from different countries, different culture, different age (probably) could have THE SAME opinion about an entire franchise.
It's crazy for me.
I love this franchise so much and It's a pleasure hace the same opinion.
Take care man.
The only change for me (and it's a little one) 7 is one short stept up to 8
Finally, someone who gets me about RE3 Remake 🙂 Though, I gotta mention you were a little kind with RE5 and maybe too harsh with RE7 😀
Looking at the playtime of the re games I have on steam really makes me realize how short re3 remake is, like to get all achievements it took 41 hours while it took 67 hours for re2 remake and 100 hours for re4 remake
I was lucky enough to climb aboard the Resident Evil train when it was released in 1996. I still remember the old PS1 longbox and the art inside was terrifying back then!
Now I think back on it, I wish they would've introduced the quick turn instead of auto-aim. Or make auto-aiming a function by pressing R2 to cycle through enemies like in RE3.
Outbreak and File 2 is a core part of my childhood. So so many hours spent playing with friends. The game had a leaderboard where you could check stats and I remember it showing I had nearly 850 hours on File 2
Being a fan of re3 nemesis from childhood and waited remake for that 20 years maybe more and fuken hurts so much to know what remake we got.
I watch bawk because we feel the same way about og re3.
A proper remake of that would be goty status
I think the best way to describe RE3 Remake is "Good/Great game, but terrible remake". Like, looked at in a vacuum, its arguably good and very well paced, but when taking into account the remakes of RE1/2/4, it pales in comparison
Awesome video Bawk! I like how you appreciate different aspects of RE games - even the smallest things. I 'm watching your videos and stream from few years. It's so awesome that after all those years you still love to play RE games which makes it very enjoyable to watch! This particular video made me thinking about my ranking and it's indeed not that easy to do 😃
My favorite ones are: RE1 Remake, RE2 OG, RE2 Remake and RE3 OG so it would be my S tier. I love other games too: RE 0, CV, RE4 Remake, RE7, and RE8, but I noticed that I don't like to go back to them that often, even though the games have an amazing gameplay and overall setting. I like to explore places like Spencer Mansion, R.P.D Station and Clock Tower. Love to dive into more calming, but yet creepy mood that allows me to relax after hard day. Spending some nostalgic time and listening to save room theme is also a huge part of it. RE4, RE7 and RE8 are really action packed, which is kinda cool, but I have to feel quite relaxed to play them. I'd personally prefer to have some bigger section of the game focused on the exploration and finding the items to solve the puzzles placed all around 😊
Anyways, this was an awesome idea for the video - it was really cool to hear your expertise on each of the RE game in such a detailed way and see how you'd rank them at the same time. Thanks! 😊
When i was a kid, i didnt even know that RE3 has a dodge system haha
CVX was so scary with the dead bodies in the bunker bed :SS
RE:Village had a better treasure system than RE4, where you found actual items from characters and the trader responded to them.
In RE4 you just found the same items over and over and they had no background.
Also wouldnt mind having so very hard puzzles, they shouldnt stop you from progressing just giving you something nice that you wouldnt get otherwise.
Even some hard fights that arent necessary but if you do them, you get special items or maybe change the ending slightly
3:00 this explains why I had such a hard time, literally spent the most time on this area
The moment you've put original RE3 and RE2 to an S rank with original RE1 being at least an A, I breathed a sigh of relief. Nice chart overall! I actually agree on most positions with minor shifts here and there due to... certain preferences.
REmake is one of my favorite games of all time!
And in RE2: Remake, they removed the Zap system, which was a huge shame.
This might be my favorite resident evil tier list yet, I think I agree with all placements here!
Good job! 👍
The police station music (when you first enter, at least) from the OG RE2 will never be forgotten by a true fan.
3Make was genius, hyped up enough to get people to buy it and long enough on a first blind play-through to exceed Steam's 2 hour cap for refunds.
my favorite thing about Revelations is that it has an actual fun and challenging final boss, instead of the classic "just stall for a while until you're given an OP mega gun to finish the boss"
That thumbnail is gonna piss so many people off.
It pissed me off. The only reason I clicked and scrolled through to see if he actually put 6 as S tier. So it worked lol.
Finally some respect for RE3 remake. It deserved that S tier!
It got a c tier.
It's a real shame R3make was not done internally at Capcom so it didn't get the care it deserved. I forgot the name of the studio responsible for it but Maximillian went into a little detail on the studio. The silver lining was that it forced them to make it RE4make internally.
I really appreciate how thoroughly you went with explaining your logic for your tier list. The explanation gives a solid reason why they are in the spots they are and thank you for doing that. Please do more tier list in the future for other of your faves :)
Bawk, I'm a longtime viewer and I love your content. I just watched this the whole way through and loved your in-depth reasoning and analysis of each game.
Raid mode makes Revelations 2 S tier.
Resident evil 3 original is such a masterpiece. I go out of my way every year to beat it before Halloween. Easily my favorite of the classic era.
Every year? That's impressive!
Thank you for singing the praises of Outbreak. I love that game.
This video brought me to Tiers. I really hope a RE remake is done again. I really wanted to play it but, I struggled with controls and quit.
How you feel about RE3 remake is how I feel about Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
Loved your play throughs. I’m a big fan of RE0 (my apologies) ha ha. But when you first pick up the hook shot it actually tells you it has a 50kg weight limit. So I think it’s the game telling you to send Rebecca. But my favourite is RE Rev 2. Love the replay ability. Keep up the streams, and a big hi from England.
Definitely worth playing Raid Mode in Revelations 1. The Ghost Ship is something special
I bought a PS2 for when outbreak was comming out, and I never had an issue playing it online or getting friends to play it online. So Im not sure why people make it sound like it was very rare to be able to play it the proper way "online". It came out in like 2003 or 2004 and pretty much everyone I knew had atleast decent internet on a dedicated line. That being said I didnt grow up in a small town so that was just my experience with it.
Fantastic break down. A loyalist to the franchise I appreciate all your input on these games
No matter what, I keep going back to your RE Village playthrough when the PIG in the farm always scares you... Your face, man haha...
Or I go back to RE 3 Remake Inferno run when Nemi scared you because Jill couldn't dodge... Your scream was genuine shock! Lol
I think you have been very generous with survivor 2 and mercenaries 3d. But hey couldn't more agree with the rest of the ranking so good job ;)
