What what could you expect from Capcom?

**cheetahmanhood** · 06-03-2003, 05:32 AM

rip-off, but still a good deal, if you think about the games you are getting!

**Prince** · 06-03-2003, 05:34 AM

Resident Evil 0 - $29.99
Resident Evil 1 (Remake/GCN) - $24.99
Resident Evil Code: Veronica X (PS2) w/ Weskers Report - 19.99$
RE 2 (PSX) - $9.99 [GCN version is exact same and they're selling it for 40$]
RE 3 (PSX) - $9.99 [GCN version is exact same and they're selling it for 40$]

75$ to buy all that stuff brand new and they're charging 160$ haha what a joke.

RE 0, and REmake are only on the cube. RE2 and 3 are the dreamcast ports on the cube making them better than the PSX games, and I'm not sure about Code Veronica.

RE 2 and 3 aren't Dreamcast ports, they're PSX ports.

**JackieChanIsGOD** · 06-05-2003, 01:52 AM

And you call yourself an RE fan?

They're untouched PSX ports.

**Nintenteneral** · 06-05-2003, 05:02 PM

capcom ported the games to dreamcast and then from dreamcast to gamecube.

**TheGreenElf** · 06-05-2003, 05:15 PM

Yeah, so the graphics are at least DC level, I'm not sure about story or gameplay though.

**Michael Bluth** · 06-05-2003, 06:51 PM

You people are pathetic........

which is why it's all the more difficult to turn back our clocks more than five years and play the original Resident Evil offerings, totally unaltered, and unrefined by comparison.

As one Capcom spokesperson put it, "not a single polygon has been changed." Given that Resident Evil 2 was a solid entry when it released in 1998 and a classic by today's standards, purists and those totally unfamiliar with the series may be willing to overlook the outdated graphics and robotic controls for the chance to explore Resident Evil history.

Unchanged PS1 port -- no major visual or audio differences

We played and beat Resident Evil 2 several times when it initially released on PS1 and after trudging through the GameCube port, we can confidently state that there are no major differences.

The bad news is that Capcom hasn't offered any real incentive to pick up the dated gem -- the game retails for a hefty $39.95, a straight rip-off since you can pick up exactly the same game on PS1 for one third the price.

Yes, the GameCube version of RE2 looks identical to the PS1 original. That means that it features the same 2D pre-rendered backdrops; the same textures; the same low polygon counts; the same character clipping problems; the same rough animation routines; the same simple particle effects -- and everything else, all weaved and sewn into one big, identical visual presentation.

It is NOT a Dreamcast port, it IS a PSX port.
