Review on Xbox One: Play Resident Evil 2 And Experience The Thrills! by Anthony Cayton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Legendary remake for a classic game.

Resident Evil 2 was the first zombie game I've ever played in my life, completely introduced me to survival and zombie-esque horror which has become a long-time favorite of mine. I'm not big on many video games, but Resident Evil has always been a beloved series in my book. It lost its touch over the years, Resident Evil 4 was the last memorable experience for me, and Capcon redeemed itself by bringing back it's true roots with Resident Evil 7.This remake is one of the best games I have ever played, I'm certain it will remain a classic for generations. I'm so grateful to Capcom for reinstating the series to make these beautifully mastered remakes so the new generation can get into the Resident Evil series. Many people confuse the movies for the games, though of course, they have no idea that the games are the true source material and that the movies did not do them justice. This has made it easier to get my fellow gamer friends who didn't play RE2 in 1998 to get into the series, and they're loving it. The game is chilling, sticks to the formula of RE2 original perfectly, the representation of all the games original elements are outstanding, and the classic soundtrack DLC (though you have to pay $2 for it, it's so worth it) throws me back into 1998 nostalgia.You will not be disappointed with this game. Capcom outdid themselves, I'm patiently waiting for Resident Evil 3 Nemesis to now be remade in honor of how much of a success this gem is. Hands down, one of the best zombie games of all time and remakes that masters aesthetics, tension, fear, and experience for survival horror fans. It relies on being analytical, resourceful, and carefully calculating with how you take to go from point A to B the entire game. Keeps you on your toes, the individual storylines for Leon/Claire with the zapping system is cherished from the original, and Capcom threw in extras above the surprises that were included in the original RE2 PlayStation version.If you're interested in giving Resident Evil a shot or want to try out a new challenging zombie/survival horror game, pick up this game.
