quote:

Due out in 2015, the title will be available via digital download only and is based on the 2002 GameCube remake. 1080p visuals will be standard for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, while older consoles will get 720p. All versions will have 5.1 surround sound support.

You can either choose to play the game in its old 4:3 ratio, or bump it up to 16:9 widescreen. Other changes include various control options, though the original scheme will be present, and a scrolling camera that appears to move away from the original's fixed angles in preference of a more dynamic approach.


Idk if we have any other RE fans here but RE 1 is one of my all time favorite games. Very exciting news for me.

These are the remakes I want to see more of instead of last gen games with higher resolution.

I was just craving this the other day. If they could REmake RE2 & RE 3 that'd be amazing.

That's what's amusing about this to me. We're at the point where we are remaking our remakes.

The remastered version for was incredible at the time. Huge fan of the series, except everything after RE4.

it's getting a bit ridiculous. The transition to HD has a lot to do with it though because standard definition on an HD screen just looks so bad.

man oh man, the memories of resident evil...When I was a kid the playstation and other gaming consoles were setup downstairs in the basement which had no windows or anything. No matter what time of day it was, if the lights were out, it was blackout dark. I could not play Resident Evil in those settings by myself, it was terrifying to me at 13 years old. Loved the game, but never even came close to finishing thanks to zombie dogs scaring the shite out of me at every turn.

I'm pretty sure it is, just in 1080p. Did you ever play it on GameCube? It looked pretty amazing at the time.

I have no doubt it will run at that resolution but it really looks like they are using the Gamecube version as a starting point and then upping the res and texture quality. I'm sure it will be pretty, since the GC version is still a nice looking game today.

That generation of games has aged pretty well

RE5 was a blast with a friend. Solo, it blew.

RE6 was an abomination.

If you want a good example of quality GameCube graphics, just play Metroid Prime. Pretty much top notch at the time.

Yeah it looked great at the time but now it's a little dated. FPS's just don't hold up as well.
