Resident Evil 1 remake on PC due 2015

Finished this last night on hard with Chris.
It was so good to play this again have not played it since the GC days, really enjoyed every bit of it :) Why oh why can't they make games like this any more ?
 
I have been playing the remake a bit now, I love the visuals and the sound and whilst it's still fun to play I'm not sure a more modern game / remake would have gotten away with some of the stuff.
I thought I would really like using the analogue controller when I first tried it out, and then I switched to the next screen and wa srunning towards the camera whilst holding up, somehow it feels even more unnatural than when the Dpad does this.
I swear in the original game which I haven't played for years that the lighter took up an inventory slot, I was hunting around for a lighter to light that fireplace and didn't realise I had it on me all along, doh.

I'm using original controls, better imo as like you say with the alternate controls your character suddenly runs in the wrong direction when the camera angles change. I also like left and right controls to work from your characters perspective rather than the camera angles.
 
With the new controls, as long as you keep holding the direction down that you were going, you keep going the say way even when the camera changes.

I find it works pretty well.

Thats weird because it does that for me with the old controls but not the new. The way the character changes direction looks too sudden and unnatural as well with the new controls.
I'm playing with keyboard, may be different with analogue sticks.
 
arrgh graphics look much better
your making me get my WII out again for this

I completed it twice many years ago, and I bought a GC with this game and the WII version, cant complete them lol need to give it another bash
 
Just finished this on medium as Jill but might as well have played it on hard as I thought the magnum was in the labs and ended up completing the game without it, even though I had 18 rounds for it in storage lol. I was wondering why I was so short of ammo all the time after the mid point (as in, 0 pistol rounds, 0 shotgun rounds and 3 grenade rounds when I entered the labs...) Got the ending I never got in the original as well so I'm happy about that.

Gonna give it a few days and then go back as chris and see whats different.

I think there is no hard it's:

Medium
Easy
Very Easy
 
Game isn't as good without the old dialogue.

WHOAAAAAA. This hall is DANGEROUS! There must be a backdoor SOMEWHERE. Lets see if we can find IT first, shall we?
 
Just started a quick Chris game just to see whats different at start and wow chris game is brutal, only 6 carry slots, no lock pick, no pistol but one can be found quickly, he does start with a lighter but this is not used as much as a lock pick so its makes for a worse 'special item'
 
Just fired up the Wii to have a look at the GC versions of REmake and Zero and they hold up so well. I also realised how much I miss the GC controller :(.
