19 years after the original release and 13 years after the release of the remake, does the grand daddy of survival horror games still hold up with a HD touch up? Or are it's best days long gone?
Carl Williams writes, "If you are reading this then you are probably a fan of retro games. Just taking a stab in the dark there. Well, we just found out that Capcom, one of the better retro supporting companies out there, has this package with Humble Bundle full of Playstation 3 and Playstation 4 games. You better hurry and grab this one because time is running out."
I have to agree. I wish companies would do more porting of their previous digital only games such as Final Fight Double Impact over to the PS4. I want to get a Playstation but 3 seems on the way out and 4 is still too new for a lot of what I am interested in.
I wish they would port their full classic line brawlers from the 90s. Man, they made some good games back then.
Napalm, check out their PSP Reloaded and Remixed collections. Great value for the money and full of their core retro games. I am not sure what consoles they released those collections on but I am sure PS3 and Xbox 360 were in there.
Well, we know that is not going to happen anytime soon, at least not till people stop buying PS3 games and such. Sad. I wish it was backwards compatible too- I would buy a PS4 immediately if it worked with at least the digital stuff from the PS3.
I wish Sony would get the licenses for all the classic arcade games from the 80s and 90s for the PS4.. I dont see why they wouldnt want to make money? I miss those brawlers like xmen, tmnt, etc.. So many great games people are forced to play on mame
The problem with that idea is that a lot of those companies are now defunct and no one really knows who owns the rights to what game. Then in cases like X-Men, it is multiple companies involved (the engine would be Konami's while the actual X-Men license would be Marvel's) and sometimes none of the companies involved are interested in working together again for whatever reason.
I wish it would happen too though.
New deals and games added to PS Store.

Two decades. That’s 20 whole years of hoping this isn’t Chris’ blood. 7240 days of asking whether or not that dude actually just said “Jill sandwich.” 173,760 hours of Albert Wesker insisting on wearing sunglasses at night. You’re almost old enough to buy a bottle of whisky to go with those green herbs, Resident Evil. May you shamble for 20 more.
Resident Evil 1 PS1 =best version hands down ...Remake had some good elements but far from considered the pinnacle, not the same atmosphere/feeling, bad-hollywood copied elements (too dark, less colors, lame filters, Lisa) and Lisa story sheered negatively the plot to a completely new and poor minded direction
Yeah it was a truly great game probably why I feel in love with it on the Saturn played the directors cut on PlayStation 1, remake on GameCube, DS Version and got the ps4 version but not got round to it yet, timeless classic. Resident evil 2 was also pretty tight as well tho looked better and had a great story and setting but yeah 1 was the original and best, 2 was a close second tho. Downhill from there really, my mate came round and did number 3 in a day and I never went back to it Code Veronica on dreamcast was pretty cool and I did really enjoy 4 but it's completely different and things do need to change but how did it go from 4-5-6 to some other tripe. Same with dead space series 1 was great 2 was ok 3 was not played. Haha.
