Resident Evil 3 is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows There may be those who are tired of Capcom’s remakes, but Resident Evil 3 is just proof that whatever Capcom redoes, they redo great. For me, it was the perfect introduction to a classic of the series that I never played before.
Resident Evil 3 is a bit weaker than the other remakes, but it’s a solid Resident Evil experience. What makes that even more fun is the ability to buy weapons which you will get in subsequent playthroughs. Once you complete Resident Evil 3, you can go back to find secrets you may have missed before, or try to complete the game with a better time, harder difficulty, etc.
The sections with Carlos almost feel like an interlude to the real gameplay sections with Jill, but the game is at its best when both of their stories are interwoven, and you can re-explore the same area that the previous character just explored-something that only really happens once or twice in Resident Evil 3 remake. He appears toting an assault rifle, and conveniently you’ll find lots of assault rifle rounds lying around. The sections with Carlos are even more action-oriented than the Jill sections, for the most part. While most of the time you play as Jill Valentine, you do play a bit as Umbrella Corporation task force member Carlos. Some enemies are weaker to certain weapon types than others, and if you don’t pick up on that, you might be wasting a lot of valuable resources. I actually had to replay a section because of a combination of bad ammo management and not having the proper weapons for the job. Resident Evil 3 has the same type of combat, and while it has an abundance of ammo, managing that ammo, as well as the rest of your inventory, is often the key to victory. Pistols always felt like weak peashooters, and ammo is scarce. The combat in Resident Evil, to me, just hasn’t ever been that great. Combat is a major part of Resident Evil 3.
