[@bobbysworldrox]

Lack of games period. Everyone is hooked on loot box an pay to win games.

[@yodaevil]

I say capcom sells out. Take the new RE engine and go RE3 and CV. Along with DC. they already said RE3 before RE8, which is promising that the see what the fans really want and make 8 more in lines with the originals. Then knock it out of the park with the DC2 we always wanted. It would be a lot easier for them to redo games, no story needed to be done up, no levels designed (other than tweaks) and just graphical updates. All much easier and more profitable than making a new game from scratch. I’d be launch for all those games. RE7 was a long wait and by for me.

[@Skarfar90]

@@AvalancheReviews Based off the relative success of other dino related titles like ARK Survival Evolved, I do believe a remade Dino Crisis could be a fantastic addition to the modern Capcom library. Think of a modern version of Dino Crisis made in the RE Engine, where features such as third-person and first-person camera modes could be added in addition to the classic fixed cameras. Game would look amazing with beautifully rendered 4K textures, and they could do a perfect remaster of sound effects, voice and soundtracks. Maybe even add a little extra to the story, where the player goes more in-depth to learn about how the time-shifts happened, and the staging act of the Doctor's accidental death. They could also ramp up the difficulty of the final boss battles with the T-Rex, as those are a bit on the easy side of things

The first game is insanely full of puzzle which gets tiring after a while. But the second one is more action packed more then survival horror though. They need to combine both of these aspects if they want to remake this.

[@Kullen64]

I can’t wait for you to get to DC3. Always wondered what the hell happened with that game.

[@osurpless]

Nothing really, it’s a solid game, but because it is difficult to play (no backward compatibility) its story and other aspects have been talked about out of context and rarely from the experience of having played it. The only “bad” thing about it is the music, too ambient like the original, when it should’ve had more oomph, especially for the epic RE4-like boss battles.

[@Kullen64]

Oliver Surpless Oh really??? I’ve always heard that it was absolute doo doo butter. The box art makes it look like a Shovelware Wii game as well. I might snag a copy if I see it at CM or something. Thanks.

[@osurpless]

Kullen64 I originally paid 40 for it in 2008, so hopefully you can find it for a similar price, as I have seen it jump in value over the last few years. The puzzles could’ve been better, but that is likely from the influence of DC2, which had pretty much none...

[@321cheeseman]

@@osurpless You're joking, right? The only "bad" thing is the music? Not the abysmal camera that half the time doesn't show you the enemies in the room that you're fighting? Not the lower standard enemy variety than Dino Crisis 2? Not the way you can just hop on some small elevated platform during many combat sections and the enemies will rarely be able to do anything to you as you mash shoot to win? Not virtually the entire game taking place in samey gray corridors? Not the platforming sections where it's difficult to tell where platforms are in 3D space and the camera frequently and jarringly changes angles mid-jump? Not the absurdly inane backtracking that's by far the worst the series has seen? No? Just the music, huh? Okay.

[@osurpless]

Cheeseman Sure, why not list off the generic complaints (which I already commented were more from heresy than experience) but do it with a dismissive tone as well? The camera is like any other 3 person game (and identical to Maximo and other Capcom games of the time), so there’s a reason that the jet pack allows you to move so fast and the tracking abilities of the machine gun can be used to find enemies. The enemy complaint is valid (to a point, as what 3 took from the original was the limited enemy types and puzzles as well), and one area they should’ve aped from 2 better, as they definitely got the bosses right... Too bad is right on enemy AI, as the gorilla-like enemies in the second part aren’t enough to satisfy when it comes to challenging enemies. Backtracking as an annoyance is relative, as by that point, much are the Resident Evil series and large sections of the first two DC games must be then disqualified as well. And specifically on the combat, no one should just stand still in 3rd person action games, and Dino Crisis 3 is no exception. Should the fact that the experience/bounty system can be exploited shortly after the Ankylosaurus boss be a disqualifier as well? People seem to have figured this out when it comes to the new iteration that is the Souls series, so why was it so elusive in the past?

Code Veronica didn't have it, which was PAINFUL for the battle game, since timer wasn't optimized for a slower gameplay, making earning an A ranking almost impossible. There were some GameCube and PS2 PAL games that, once again, didn't have an option for 60Hz. AFAIK the next console generation is the first to have a 100% of PAL releases with a 60Hz option.

People tend to remember Dino Crisis 2 more fondly than the first, but I will tell you some truth: DC1 was a SURVIVAL HORROR game through and through. In my opinion it did survival horror better than RE did on ps1. Enemies were capable of opening doors and also disarm you, the puzzles were weird and unique, there was a whole pseudo-crafting system where you could sacrifice health items to make poison, seriously it had more depth than the second game and the old resi games combined. I love Dino Crisis 2 to bits, don't get me wrong it's an awesome action game, but DC1 will always be the definitive survival horror entry for me!

[@AvalancheReviews]

I can agree with that. I think I enjoy 2 more for its gameplay, but 1 gives probably the most survival horror feeling experience I have ever had.

I'd say this will be a perfect test of those survival horror skills. It's like survival horror hard mode.
