Resident Evil 3: Nemesis

Gameplay RPG (89 out of 100)

Pour ma part, je conseillerais ce jeu à ceux qui, bien sûr, n'ont jamais fait la version Play, puisqu'il n'apporte rien de nouveau et qu'il reste une bonne expérience quand il est fait pour la première fois. Et à ceux qui n'ont pas peur de le comparer à Code Véronica. Ou alors, préférez attendre un nouvel épisode, c'est au choix.

Capcom's third RE game is not the best of the bunch, but it does pack a wallop when it needs to. This game won five awards in 2000 including Game Design and Game of the Year.

At any rate, while other recently ported Capcom titles such as Dino Crisis are judged a little more harshly against today's standards, Resident Evil 3 Nemesis remains a very worthwhile game even though not much has been added to the translation. If you've already played the original, there's little reason to pick this one up, but if you haven't yet, you should. While Resident Evil 3 Nemesis may not be the definitive product in the Resident Evil series, it's still a very good game that's experienced only slight wear over time.

Nemesis takes a bold step forward in terms of atmosphere and gameplay from the first two in the series (RE1 and RE2).

RE: CV was the title that was supposed to launch the RE franchise onto the next generation consoles, and it did its job well, taking the PSX engine and making it perform better than ever. But at a time when the Dreamcast is entering its second generation of games, the PS2 is up and running, and innovative survival horror games like Devil May Cry (from Capcom, no less) are on the horizon, this just seems like a huge step backwards. And what is the next RE title we have to look forward to? A revamp of RE2! With only a slight improvement in graphics and a couple of nifty options, the true replay value of this game comes from what was already there: solid game play, intense difficulty, and branching story lines. If you have the PSX version, then you already have this. I can only recommend this game for newcomers to the title, and for RE zealots who simply must have every version they can get their hands on.

Despite having played through the PlayStation version, I still thoroughly enjoyed Resident Evil 3: Nemesis on the Dreamcast. The slightly newer look, added options, and all the classic RE gameplay are enough for me to recommend this game to expert RE players -- and those that have never played the PS version should really give this game a shot. Now, the only problem is, what will you have Jill Valentine wear?

Although many will be disappointed another quick PlayStation port has found its way onto the Dreamcast, it's difficult to find much fault with Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. It delivers everything which made the original Resident Evil so fantastic but on a bigger and grander scale. At a budget price, it's difficult to go wrong with this unless you already own it on PSX.

En resumen, Residen Evil 3, sigue siendo tan bueno como en su versión de Psx. La calidad es algo que no se olvida y que suele conservarse al realizar las conversiones, el problema viene cuando para conservar el buen nivel de play, se conservan el juego tal y como lo conocíamos. Si ya habéis jugado a la versión de la consola de Sony no merece la pena que os hagáis con la de DC porque no vais a encontrar nada nuevo. Si aún no lo has hecho, no es tarde para que te inicies en esta saga, aunque quizá fuera más recomendable hacerse con el RE Code Veronica que sí está a la altura de DC.

Jill Valentine is hot! She could take down the likes of Lara Croft any day of the week. The Nemesis is one cute guy as well. Keeping the survival horror beast alive on the Dreamcast is an easy task for Capcom as four titles now populate the system. In this version, Capcom unloads eight costumes for Jill from the get-go. The game also provides the entertaining Mercenaries game initially – it was only available after beating the game in the original. RE3 is still very fresh in my mind from its PS-X Appearance, but I was still engrossed in the hectic battle with the Nemesis. Just like Dino Crisis and RE 2, this game gets the $20 price tag and I think it's worth every penny. Well, it's worth it if you are an RE newbie. Code: Veronica is far superior to this game in every way, but RE3 is still one of my favorites on any system.

Resident Evil 3 – Nemesis bietet gewohnt solide Kost. Zwar gibt es nur kleine Verbesserungen zur PSOne-Fassung, doch die verbesserte Grafik und die neuen Optionen laden selbst RE-Veteranen ein, mal einen Blick auf Nemesis zu werfen. Wer RE3 noch nicht gespielt hat, kann gefahrlos zugreifen, denn die Mischung aus Action, Rätsel und Horror-Atmosphäre gepaart mit guter Grafik und stimmigem Sound ist immer noch faszinierend und macht eine Menge Spaß. Falls Ihr aber nur ein Survival-Horror-Game in der Sammlung braucht, dann greift lieber zu RE Code: Veronica, dass in allen Belangen vor Nemesis liegt.

Gamer's Pulse (79 out of 100)

Overall I'm afraid to say that I'm glad to get this game out of the way. The story, entertaining as it may be, is quite predictable and not that interesting. The gameplay is tired and boring and sometimes downright tedious, and after a while Nemesis really gets on your nerves. The beast just doesn't know when to quit. Most of the human characters are just zombie treats more often than not, and none of them are really interesting - some of them I was just glad to see die. Personally, by the time I finished the game I was just burnt out on the whole Resident Evil experience. Still, a real change to the same tired formula would do a world of good, and I'm not talking about just a jump to full 3D. Come on Capcom, give us a game we will remember the next day. The sheer amount of gaming to be had here is still worth the price though.

Wenn man einfach mal davon ausgeht, dass jeder Resident Evil-Aficionado die mittlerweile schon über ein Jahr alte PlayStation-Version ausgiebig gezockt hat, ist die DC-Versdion eigentlich komplett überflüssig. Capcom hat sich leider nicht einen Hauch von Mühe gegeben, den vorgerenderten Sequenzen oder den Polygon-Figuren auch nur das geringste Facelifting zu verpassen. Zwischen der klobigen Jill Valentine und der smoothen Claire Redfield aus Code: Veronica liegen Welten – da nützen auch die netten acht Kostüme nix. Zu allem Überfluss ist die DC-Version ebenso geschnitten wie ihr PS-Vorbild (Zombies bluten weiß, blinken am Boden kurz und verschwinden dann ins digitale Nirwana) – auch da hat RE: CV atmosphärisch die Nase vorn. (…) Da Nemesis von allen REs die schwächste Story hat, lohnt sich die DC-Fassung nur für Leute, die die 32-Bit-Version nicht kennen. Immer noch ein guter Horror-Schocker, aber welch ein Rückschritt gegenüber Code: Veronica.

Techniquement, RE3 sur Dreamcast améliore le graphisme de l'opus en tenant compte des possibilités supérieures de la Dreamcast mais se limite tout de même au minimum. Les graphismes sont plus fins concernant les héros et monstres, les effets de lumière ont été aussi revus à la hausse mais on reste quand même en dessous des performances habituelles. Les textures restent un peu baveuses quelques fois et certains décors manquent un peu de couleurs. Heureusement, la qualité du rendu des décors reste au meilleur de sa forme avec son ambiance sinistre à souhait, donnant à Resident Evil 3 Nemesis sur Dreamcast une véritable atmosphère d'angoisse.

Gamekult (6 out of 10)

Resident Evil 3 : Nemesis n'est pas un mauvais jeu mais il souffre des défauts propres à la saga des Resident Evil, tout en arrivant bien trop tard : après avoir essayé le superbe Resident Evil : Code Veronica, revenir sur ce troisième épisode est particulièrement difficile. Il vaut vraiment être collectionneur ou être en manque après avoir fini Resident Evil : Code Veronica pour se précipiter sur ce portage un peu vieillot.

DC owners have already had months of joy with the wonderful Code Veronica, and this isn't in the same league. Graphics are only tarted up slightly from the PS version, and extra-costumes and a mini-game don't really make up for his. That said, it's still a cool game, and i you're a Resi-nut, it's well worth it. Otherwise, go and buy Code Veronica now, you fools.
