At the core, Resident Evil 3 remake is a good game. It plays smoothly and is immensely entertaining. Aside from the fact that the game is sorely lacking in content compared to the original or even the previous Resident Evil 2 remake, I still advise fans of the games, especially Resident Evil 3, to try it out as its quite a refreshing take on the original and feels close enough to home.

Resident Evil 3 is another incredible remake of this classic franchise, and it shows the infamous outbreak of Racoon City in a modern way. However, I finished the whole story campaign in only 6 hours, which is too short for a triple-A single-player game. Besides, as a Resident Evil fan, I expect more in terms of the Boss fight against Nemesis.

Resident Evil 3 is a tight and slick action-adventure experience that doesn’t quite reach the heights set by its predecessor

It’s hard to shake the feeling that most of the Nemesis encounters and big action beats highlight the limitations of the simple and somewhat dated classic Resident Evil design of the first few entries in the series.

While enjoyable and filled with plenty to enjoy, Resident Evil 3 unfortunately feels like an uneven mishmash of horror and action. It wants to do two things at once and while it does them in a passable way, it doesn't always feel like it reaches its full potential especially when following in the footsteps of Resident Evil 2 Remake.

Resident Evil 3's remake might not be as surprising as REmake 2, but it is still a fun ride.

Resident Evil 3 is a worthy successor to the Resident Evil 2 remake in every respect. A perfect reimagining and one of the best entries in the Resident Evil franchise.

Maybe it will win me over yet. It’s running out of time though.

Resident Evil 3 joins its forbearer as another top notch remake. I'm happy to see what Capcom has been doing with the series and wonder where they'll take it next.

Resident Evil 3 constantly hints at greatness, but never quite reaches the heights of the PS1 original. It's a solid enough game, but not nearly as impressive as other recent Resident Evil titles, and not nearly as good as it could and should have been.

Resident Evil 3 fails to reach the heights of Resident Evil 2 remake, has a shorter and easier campaign and cuts off some iconic locations like The Clock Tower and Raccoon Park.

Resident Evil 3 delivers that uncomplicated rush of old pleasure in spades; it should satisfy anyone who’s squirmed through the flagship titles of the series and wishes now for more, maybe to kill some hours in self-imposed captivity. Only in that beautifully rendered first act, though, does Resident Evil 3 threaten to find something new in an old blueprint, bringing a city of the dead to vivid life.

If you're looking for the authentic Resident Evil experience, this is definitely not it. But if you have a Resident Evil itch that you just need to scratch, this could provide lots of hours of entertainment for you, even without the Resident Evil Resistance standalone experience. But at the end of the day, I'd rather just play the excellent Resident Evil 2 Remake, or even the original Resident Evil 3 on my old PS2 instead.

A remake that's a blast to play, while it lasts.

This is an enjoyable single-player adventure with some impressive set-pieces and beautiful cutscenes. There are even some butt-clenching moments that are genuinely exhilarating, but the overall package is much to meager. If this was a Resident Evil movie, it would easily be the best one.

So if you find yourself a little underwhelmed with Resident Evil 3’s remake after a single runthrough, don’t stop there. Unlock some of those bonus extras. Play through again, see if you can beat your time. Engage with all the additional elements included to provide the game with extra longevity. And you might just find there’s a lot more long-term appeal here than you initially thought.

Resident Evil 3 Remake is incredibly ambitious but some of the creative decisions made for this Remake do make this one feel like a slight step back from its predecessor. Regardless, it is a great Resident Evil game on its own and should satisfy the thirst of fans who wanted to see the series go back to action.

Doesn't worth its high price, but check it out when it's on sale if you want a trip down memory lane.

Resident Evil 3 proves that you can take a lot of the same mechanics and ideas, but when you implement them into a flawed structure, a lot gets lost in the mix. The 2020 remake lacks the depth, pacing, and general sensibilities of a great survival horror and ends up almost becoming an action game.

The Remake of Resident Evil 3 is like delicious pie that you had eaten years ago, but now it has been remade with a new recipe, and despite its grander and more appetizing look, it no longer tastes the same. However, this new taste can still be enjoyed. The RE3 Remake is probably the only title in the series that has managed to retain its sense of horror like a true Resident Evil game, despite its action oriented nature. However, the story narration and puzzle sections are lacking, so it has somewhat failed to fulfill the fans' expectations
