Not him but he has a point, this thread is near useless. Play both and form your own opinion. Anyways, first game is basically an RE clone except harder than the mainline RE titles. Good atmosphere, boring story, alright game.
2 drops the survival horror and is action oriented, still has tank controls, and an arcade scoring system but is arguably more fun than the first game.

DC1 has cool tech (fully 3D before Code Veronica) and the characters are funny as hell, but the game is meh

Never played 2

DC1: Survival horror, neat stuff but some rooms are just metallic and boring. story is not deep but presented as a bit of a scifi thriller.

DC2: Straight up action shooter (even gives you points for kills) story is kinda stupid. but the look of the game has more of a lush jungle/jurassic park feel to it.

DC3: A mix of the first 2, the boring metallic room look of DC1 and the mindless shooting of DC2. story went beyond retarded. also its in spaaaaaaaaaace!

I'd say play DC1 first, its a good game. then if you want more play DC2, but ignore DC3 completely. (its an xbox only title, so doubt you can emulate that on your vita anyway)

>DC1 has cool tech (fully 3D before Code Veronica)

Dino Crisis was released July 1999, Code Veronica was February 2000. Nex Entertainment ported the game to the Dreamcast in 2000, they also made the Code Veronica game engine for Capcom. Nex Entertainment was owned by Sega, and functioned as a tech group. They even worked on Shenmue.

Dreamcast:
Dino Crisis[4]
Dream Studio[4]
Resident Evil Code: Veronica[4]
Resident Evil Code: Veronica X[4]
Shenmue

12 hours for both dino crisis games is nothing, there's modern games that are easily 5x that length. It's like watching a movie, pop it on, if you're not feeling it, stop watching, that's casual.

I can assure you it does not, for the simple fact that she is a (crude) 3D computer model from the late 90s and not actually real.

I've started playing 1 and this game is great!
why did nobody tell me before?

I was annoyed by resident evil because of all that back tracking. i hate back tracking.
this game seems to be very linear which I enjoy way more.

I also thought the tank controls would put me off because I remember how I've hated them in Grim Fandango back when it was released but I really have no problem with the controls here, it plays just fine.

only problem I have is that I can't pick up enough items but I suppose that means I do have to back track eventually.

It's better than RE though, and I love RE. If you don't like DC1, you're not a survival horror fan. Simple as.

Are there any significant differences between the Dreamcast and PS port other than resolution/graphics? I only ever played the DC version

RE has way more formats, super weapons to unlock and lots of interactive NG+ elements that incentivize replays and re-runs. DC1 doesn't do any of that and even DC2 fails tremendously in comparison. I can replay most RE games out of fun. Something i can't claim about DC1

The only reason you're hating on DC1 is because you can't handle the fear, your generation gets scared easily because you grew up with non threatening cartoons in 2005.

Sure, but DC1 is the peak of resource management, which is the root of the genre.

I can give you that. But a game is more than just one feature. Imo the RE games nailed every component perfectly and make it really pleasant to go over that whole ordeal several times more.

videogames aren't that big of a deal to be upset about "spoonfeeding" people about what games are bad lol
you just take vydia too seriously
and no, 12 hours isn't nothing
if your standard is built off knowing that there's 100 hour games out there, your perspective isn't of an adult that has a wife and a kid

>m-maybe you shouldn't have a kid then

that wouldn't be your business though right? your business would be telling him which dino crisis game is worth playing, or not responding at all

videogames aren't that serious of a matter
also, you trying to use movies as an example isn't working out in your favour that well

since you just used an example of "BRO IT'S JUST 6 HOURS, FAG, JUST TRY IT" while trying ot use movies, which are almost never over 90-100 mins, isn't exactly the same
aside from that, for most vydia you need at least 1-2 hours to get anywhere within the central game loop, while usually you'll know if you like a movie or not within the first 30 minutes, if not 20

you're a self-important shmuck with the perspective of someone that's going way past their bed time
so you're either too immature or irresponsible for your age, or you're filthy rich

motherfucker you can assume whether or not you like a game before you even start it 90% of the time based on the genre/developer.

DC1 is good but easy as fuck, the puzzles aren't particularly hard either, they're just kind of stupid at times. But it's a great looking PS1 game because of full 3D environments. Also weird stuff like QTEs.
DC2 is proto-RE4, with a focus on combat and combos that reward you with points you can use to upgrade your stuff and buy new weapons. They used pre-rendered backgrounds for some reason but they look pretty good, the jungle atmosphere and soundtrack are honestly 10/10, and it's really replayable

If they did push it to surpass everything then it would probably end up like when crysis came out,most people wouldnt be able to play it on theyre machine and wouldnt run on console so less potential sell to rentabilize it.
