Alone in the Dark > Resident Evil PS1 trilogy

1 > 3 > 2 I guess

Code Veronica > 1 > 2

Nemesis was a gaiden game, not the real 3, which is CV.

2 >> 3 >>>>>>>> 1

3 =>2 > 1

I used => because depending on your mood, 3 and 2 and can be equally good or at least 3 would be slightly.

1-3-2

>>5392545
2 1 3

REmake>2>3>1

CV is the worst game I'vr ever played.

>>5392725
how do i play CV on pc, only through emulation?

>>5392548
correct

>>5392731
This.

>>5392545
This >>5392859 is the correct order. But 1 is hard to go back.

>>5392896
If CV is the worst game you’ve ever played then you must not play much.

>>5393215
Yes, it needs an update, the DS is a pretty good update. But it still need a little bit more details and stuff. But it's still better than 3.

But the 3 of them are awesome. We're discussing which one is "less excellent".

>>5393217
CV destroyed the story though and start the whole "Super wesker" thing. And then zero was all metaphysical...

Another anon said the story would be about eugeny and nazis and stuff, that would make SO much sense.

But then they went with Super Wesker and shit.

For me the series is 123.

Or Remake, remake 2, possible remake 3 and VII (I didn't finish it, but it seems consistent).

That's it.

I believe CV was a what if scenario, that's why it wasn't numbered from the beginning.

>>5393234
>muh storyfaggotry
ok. now what about the gameplay, game design, etc, you know, stuff that's actually important to making a videogame fun

>>5393247
CV gameplay was pretty good.

But game like these are too dependent on story.

3 > 2 > 1 despite REmake > all

2 > 1 > 3

>>5392738
I agree with this. I was thinking 3>2>1 at first but 2 and 3 are really close

>>5392545
2>3>1

>>5392725
But it was called 3

>>5395069
Internally capcom calls CV RE3 and nemsis is still considered to be RE 1.9 like it was once titled.

>>5395190
>trust me, I work at Capcom and that's what we all call it in the break room

>>5395190
based insider information anon

>>5392545
I've only played 2 and 3, 2 I liked the most.

3 > 1 > 2
3 had the best gameplay mechanics like quick turns, dodges, ammo crafting, choices, and the overall setting of a desperate escape from the city by someone who had already taken on all of these enemies was perfectly done and felt like a fitting end to the Racoons City portion of the series.
1 was a great campy B-Movie and the mansion itself was designed perfectly, appearing as an ordinary mansion and then slowly revealing the underground and lab. My main criticism of REmake was how the mansion was turned into a typical carnival style death trap. The gameplay mechanics were very very poor, not even having a basic like lock on, but fit the B-Movie vibe where everyone is an idiot.
2 was attempting to be both at once and feels worse for it. They attempt the "city gone to shit" idea but then spend most of the game running around sewers and labs and the police station itself was a comically bad attempt at recreating the mansion and like REmake felt like an intentionally obvious "Hey guys bad guys do stuff here" scenario than an organic location.
All are great games though.

>>5392554
go to hell

>>5392725
OP was asking about the PS1 trilogy, which CV isn't part of.

>>5393047
Just emulate it on Dolphin. It's easy and simple.

In general 3 > 1 > 2
Now to break it down by versions. PSN versions aren't listed since they're emulation
>RE1
Ultimate Director's Cut (mod) > Saturn (Japanese) > Saturn > Director's Cut > DS > PSX > PC > Director's Cut Cut Dualshock
>RE2
Sourcenext > Dreamcast > Dualshock (I prefer the PSX's d-pad for RE games) > GCN > PC > N64 > Original > Game.com
>RE3
Sourcenext > Dreamcast > PSX > GCN > PC

>>5392545
1>2>3

>>5397341
What makes the Saturn version of RE1 so good? And what are the differences between the US and the JP one

>>5397658
>What makes the Saturn version of RE1 so good?
Battle Game, as well as the addition of Tics (Hunter reskins) and a second t-002 for Chris
Also the only one with Zombie Wesker (battle game exclusive)
>And what are the differences between the US and the JP one
If I recall the JP one had the uncensored cutscenes

>>5392690
keep seething maybe someday your franchise will be revived.

>>5392731
>>5393205
Holy shit, gay.

>>5392545
1 > 2 > 3

>>5393234
>muh story
zero fucks, I don't even know most of the fucking story because me and my friends were always bullshitting and goofing around during the cutscenes and not taking a hokey video game horror story overly seriously. The in game gameplay itself and the world they put you in is incredible.

>>5399467
>my experience is equal to anyone on earth

>>5395190
Only half-true. RE3 was RE1.9/2.1 once, but RECV was never RE3. The game that was supposed to be RE3 ended up becoming RE4 and that RE4 ended up becoming Devil May Cry 1.

>>5396429
Why the triggering?

>>5392545
For me it would be: 2 > 1 = 3
I liked Code Veronica quite a lot also.

>>5399586
>my reading comprehension is below anyone on earth

>>5397856
You're lucky being an unwashed weeb is retro so I wont report you

>>5401337
seething aitdfag

>wah he doesnt like my shitty western franchise, im going to report you

>>5392690
Yikes

>>5401151
there're people out there that care about the story.

>>5393234
You're just a faggot, I really cant otherwise understand this hate for CV when all you can list are plot bullshit
If someone gives a fuck about plot in video games, especially retro ones, then they're obviously uncultured swine that's never read a book

>>5402749
CV started the supernatural trend.

>>5402770
>magical virus turning people into zombies, followed by magical virus turning people into 4 armed literal demons who then turn into giant shark dogs and then turn into a massive tentacle blob
All good here
>Weskers eyes glow red and he runs fast
THIS IS BULLSHIT

1: Shit
2: Shit
3: Shit

Survival horror sucks.

>>5402817
>magical virus turning people into zombies
enough to suspend my disbelief

>Super Matrix Wesker with shiny eyes and singing BOWs that can attract leaches that forms a body of a person perfectly
I can suspend my disbelief, I can't turn my brain off

>>5402828
I love it.

>>5402860
You could turn your brain off for Birkin and a police chief turning his precinct into a poor man's Spencer mansion but Weaker with glowing eyes was the limit for you? Parrot more bullshit to fit in retard.

>>5402956
He didn't though, it was a museum that was adapted to a Police Station, you can only access it through the sewers.

Spencer always wanted for it to spread.

CV story was supposed to be about the origins of Umbrella and stuff, it was associated with eugenism.. and then they went with Matrix Wesker and super Claire dodging helicopter bullets.

1-3 was about surviving and barely getting out alive.

>>5402997
>>Spencer always wanted for it to spread.
That's why the laboratory is connected to the sewers and is in the middle of the forest.

It's in one of the files, one of the employees questioning the decision to create a laboratory like this in the middle of the forest.

>>5402997
>He didn't though, it was a museum that was adapted to a Police Station, you can only access it through the sewers.
Gee I must have been mistaken by the GIANT FUCKING FRONT DOOR THAT SAID R.P.D
>Spencer always wanted for it to spread.
Yeah, thats why they did an emergency plan with Wesker to bring in STARS for combat data and then destroy everything before it became an outbreak
>CV story was supposed to be about the origins of Umbrella and stuff, it was associated with eugenism.. and then they went with Matrix Wesker and super Claire dodging helicopter bullets. 1-3 was about surviving and barely getting out alive.
The opening where she runs away and Wesker cutscene clearly invalidates the rest of the entire game which is exactly what you describe on a gerater extent since you start the game out as a fucking prisoner on a deserted island with 0 supplies unlike the rpevious 3 games.
Once again parrot more bullshit you saw in a Youtube video and /v/ posts about games you've clearly never played in your life and probably werent even born when they originally released.

>>5393324
This is the correct answer.

>>5403034
>Gee I must have been mistaken by the GIANT FUCKING FRONT DOOR THAT SAID R.P.D
Pay attention next time.

>Yeah, thats why they did an emergency plan with Wesker to bring in STARS for combat data and then destroy everything before it became an outbreak

That's Umbrella, not Spencer. Also Wesker had his own plans.

>The opening where she runs away and Wesker cutscene clearly invalidates the rest of the entire game which is exactly what you describe on a gerater extent since you start the game out as a fucking prisoner on a deserted island with 0 supplies unlike the rpevious 3 games.
No, because it's part of the story now. You can't ignore what you don't like. It's part of a "gestalt".

>>5403042
Agreed.

>>5403034
>Gee I must have been mistaken by the GIANT FUCKING FRONT DOOR THAT SAID R.P.D
Oh, I think I got what you mean here.

I meant, the connection between the lab and the musuem was through the sewers. It was never a "Spencer mansion". The police officer created the barriers.

You didn't even got that? No wonder you liked CV.

>>5403043
>>5403053
I have no idea what half assed wikipedia plot synopsis you read but it was written by someone even more retarded than you which is quite a feat. Stop talking about thing you don't understand at all and try actually playing any of these games instead of talking about them because REmake2 is a hot new game.

>>5403071
You are trying too hard now. Literally everything is told through the game docs or common sense. AKA scenario story telling.

And pay attention when playing games next time.

2 > 3 > 1
Nothing against the first game at all, but 2 perfected the 1st game's formula, and 3 had the Nemesis.

Code Veronica > 0 > 1 > 3 > 2
