Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (1999 Video Game)
7/10
The cult classic
19 December 2019
Resident Evil 2 was everyone's favorite Resident Evil title at the time and with Resident Evil 3, it was some people personal favorite.

Positives: We get to play as one of the characters from the first game, Jill Valentine. The game still use tank controls but added something new that the pervious games doesn't have: dodging and 180 quick turn. These mechanics are use to help in some situations unlike the last 2 games, moving into a little more action. We finally get to explored the streets of Raccoon City where in Resident Evil 2 you explored the police station. While the game started to feel more action-toward, we we're quickly reminded that it's a horror game from one creature name Nemesis. Nemesis is seem like a clone of Mr. X but the difference is that he's smarter, have tentacles, and RUNS AFTER YOU! Nemesis mostly stalks you everywhere you go, which case me to get very paranoid throughout the game. You have a reloading tool which can be used with gunpowder to create ammo if you're running low. The more you use it, the better skilled you get. Also, the background environment looks way better than RE2, actually looks like a 3D game and it still holds up. There's a HD version on PC where you get a sharper look.

Negatives: Now honestly, I didn't really have anything negative to say but looking back at it, I do have issues with this. I did say the game seem to lean toward action which it's fine, but my problem is that the controls wasn't meant for a fast paced game like this and it's really a struggle. The amount of backtracking is such a pain. The previous has backtracking, but this one has the most out of all the 3 and it's a little annoying. We get to see new characters in this game which I liked, but they never showed up or even mentioned in future titles. Why introduced us to new people when we're not going to see them again. What a waste. I'm not going to be talking about the graphics or characters because this game came out on PS1.

Overall, this is my personal favorite Resident Evil game (I think I'm going to get hated for this but I think this game is better than RE2). It have some flaws but it's pretty enjoyable and addicting to play.
