Just noticed this on steam so thought I'd share it. I've not read anything about this remastered HD version of the game and was surprised it popped up on my recommended thing!

About the Game
The game that defined the survival-horror genre is back! Check out the remastered HD version of Resident Evil.

In 1998 a special forces team is sent to investigate some bizarre murders on the outskirts of Raccoon City. Upon arriving they are attacked by a pack of blood-thirsty dogs and are forced to take cover in a nearby mansion. But the scent of death hangs heavy in the air. Supplies are scarce as they struggle to stay alive.

Graphics
More detailed graphics that retain the horror.
The environments come alive with detail thanks to resolution upgrades and non-static 3D models.
Post-processing effects like Bloom filters, which were not easy to do at the time of the original release, have been added to make the HD graphics even more realistic.
High-Resolution Environments - We've increased the resolution of the background environments by recreating them with a mix of high-res static images, plus animated 3D models.

Widescreen Support
Widescreen (16:9) is supported, so players can experience a greater sense of immersion.
In widescreen mode, the screen will scroll. The parts of the screen that get cut off on the top and bottom will scroll into view automatically depending on the character's position.
You can switch the display mode during gameplay in real time.

Sound & New Controls
High-Quality Sound - The audio has been remastered to increase the sampling rate, and of course 5.1ch output is also now supported.
New Controls
You can play using the original control scheme or an alternate control scheme that lets you just push the analog stick to move in the direction you want to go.
You can switch the control scheme during gameplay in real time.

Can't wait :D

Can't wait :D

Thanks for the update!

Absolutely loved the original, think it was on the PS1 I played it though.
 
yh I new it was coming and cant wait,hope they remaster 2 and 3 aswell

res evil remake on the gamecube is good too
 
It'd be nice if along with this we got resi 2 and 3 on steam. I'll happily take them in their original state as I doubt they will go to the effort of re doing them both to the level of this.
 
Can't wait for this. I played though the original not to long back and love it still. Can see it being even more fun with some updated graphics.
 
Before we all get carried away, lets not forget that the recent Res 4 release was not all that.

Not bad, but should have been soo much better on several fronts.

Only supports 16:9 widescreen? Where's the 21:9 support? Who do they think we are, console gamers?!
 
Just looks like they've ported the Gamecube version to PC with adding support for more resolutions and other gumpf.
 
Duno which one i played but i think it was a demo. You start off near a car crash flames and stuff and zombies coming at you.

Still think that was the best zombie movements and sounds and attacks to date.
