Poll Anyone else here going to go through the original game before the remake? (89 votes)
My brother is a much bigger fan of the original style of RE games and I played more of the new ones, including RE7 (which he still has yet to finish!) The thing that always drove me away from them was merely the limited save system with ink ribbon use. I never liked that aspect. I've played several hours of each, but when it comes to old style RE, I only ever finished RE3 on the Dreamcast. The tank controls are an issue, but not as big of one to me as the ink ribbons. We pretty much have all RE's on every system, but I never went through RE2 all the way through myself, so I plugged in the N64 and am now going through that version (albeit, by cheating with infinite ammo! Mwahaha, yes. Yes...)
I'm in the police station, just after you use the keycard on the computer. I'm liking it a lot, and weirdly enough, even though I knew what happens and had seen it many, many times, I jumped when zombies came through the window at the gun shop. Although the game doesn't support surround sound, my sound system somehow makes it sound like it does which is nice. Yeah, I'm having fun with the original and wanted to get through it so I can compare it to the remake when I get it. I hate going into games like a sequel or remake and not knowing what came before. Who else is going to play the original before the remake?
