Seeing the old Spencer Estate again, in those graphics awakened in my such a powerful longing. I remember: 98 or 99, coming home from school and playing through Resident Evil with the goal of beating it before Battlestar Gallactica came on the Sci-Fi channel at 3pm. Typically, I'd arrive home by 1:45 or so giving my just a little over an hour on the living room TV. My mother would be at work until three-thirty or four and over the course of several months I played that game everyday until one day I managed to beat it, save, and turn my Playstation off just as the main theme for Battlestar would start up! To this day, I still recall so many little details about that game. I was one of those fools whom mastered "quick changing" weapons by rapidly swapping them from the inventory. Gosh, what golden days, those were. Thank you Suzy... I needed this today.

[@johntitor272]

This is good news. Honestly, the gaming industry is the absolute worst when it comes to preservation. What's worse is that a lot of game developers and even gamers have this mindset that once a remake comes out you don't have to bother with the original. The idea that a remake should or even could just replace the original is really bad for video games as an art form because it devalues them into content to be discarded as soon as the new shiny replacement comes out. The same thing applies to other forms of media, but in the gaming industry this kind of mindset is more celebrated than elsewhere and it is depressing. Video games don't have to be groundbreaking in continuity, It's okay for our classics to be classics, to be examined with historical lenses instead of treated as machines in need of repair. Imagine movie buffs telling you not to bother with the iconic original Cape Fear and instead just watch the new shiny remake. Preservation is something that needs to be discussed more within the gaming industry.

[@unknowna8056]

Preach it! As much as RE Remake is my favorite RE I still want to experience the original one because without the OG we wouldn't have Resident Evil, same for RE2 and 3!

[@user-vi4xy1jw7e]

It definitely happens with movies too. Do you ever hear anyone talking about the original Scarface, the Fly, the Thing, or Wizard of Oz? I think most people aren't even aware there were original versions that came before all the previously mentioned movies.

I love GOG so much. If I have the option to buy a game there, I'll always do so. They're the closest thing to actually owning a PC game because you can create installer backups. Steam is convenient and by all counts one of the best game providers, but having so many integrated online services means that if Valve ever goes under, so many games will meet the same fate as early PC physical games, only playable through unofficial means. Edit: GOG restoring more Capcom PC games like Dragon's Dogma Online, Monster Hunter Frontier, and... Resident Evil Survivor would be the dream.

The Suffering is available on Gog, but is prone to crashes that a number of people have reported. Gog games are great, but some of them need fine tuning.

@@Ganymede559 What you said is entirely true. Metal Gear Solid still requires a few extra patches by the user to achieve a modernish experience with the game.

And it always will be, because Konami are just never going to be able to compete with well over a decade of community driver advances in emulation on the kinds of deadlines and budgets these types of releases have. And with Silent Hill 2 you've also got the "problem" (for Konami) of the Enhanced Edition, which realistically they're also never going to be able to beat because it's more or less completely perfect at this point.

I am happy classic RE is now on PC and more people can play them for the first time now. BUT I still want people to be aware that the GOG version of RE1 is based on the earliest WIN95/98 Port that uses a older codebase than its mediakite and sourcenext re-releases. These releases came with coding improvements that made the games run a little bit better. Capcom gave GOG the worst version to work with. That's why all the issues like broken framerates, black lines through the screen on 3DFX mode etc are still present, even though the advertisement makes it seem they are "improved. Classic Rebirth paired with mediakite or sourcenext releases are still the superior way to play these games on PC.

[@Elfangel85]

Thank you for saying the truth. I see no point in getting these new ports.

[@benskx]

It's really a shame that they did it this way, the sourcenext versions are way better. i genuinely see no reason to buy this version of the games when a superior one exists for free, plus the HD mods work better with the sourcenext versions too, and the FMVs are higher res. All around a disappointing effort from GOG.

[@Acantophis3rd]

I actually say, and so I already did: Buy these releases. To show Capcom that there is high demand for a proper remastered classic collection on every existing platform. They refuse this demand for decades now, so it might be a lost cause. But never say never.

[@samikalastaja]

My first RE was RE2 on PC. It had a weird glitch back then - when I selected the maximum resolution the display became segmented, like if the game was projected to a post it notes. So I had to put the resolution lower to prevent that.

[@felixcosty]

This is why I buy games of GOG when I can. They do this for games to keep them around. Plus you can download the game an keep them on your own back drive, without having to install them, so you can preserve the games you buy.

Finally, the TRUE RE3 being brought to modern age.

[@06dogb]

You can probably rule out a console port of these games. If it was GOG that made this possible, then that means capcom likely had no plans to even re-release these games in the first place. So they probably still don't since this was just GOG doing it.

Hi Susie I truly love your genuine love for resident evil, there’s no bullshit when it comes to your content, thank u so much.

[@Nakkokakum.europeenjiggalo]

as a kid born in 1996 i remember playing re2 in 2000, the game was so scary for me especially the moaning's from the zombies gave me shivers down my back. ahhhh good memories.

[@NatsuKen00]

If a GOG team wants to make better versions of the classic RE games - they need to coordinate with the Classic REbirth team as they have already fixed many of the problems. Now the first part still has problems with lagging sounds in the videos and constantly changing frames.

[@AdoreYouInAshXI]

It runs like crap for me on GOG. Controller doesn't work and every time I enter first person to aim it crashes. I had to buy the classic collection on PS5 in order to play MGS2.

RE1 directors cut is available to buy/ download without ps+ premium subscription. If you bought it on ps3 then it’s free to download on ps4/5 (works with any ps1 games that were on ps3 and since had a ps+ premium release) (tested and working with a ps+ essential subscription)

[@DragmaKerp]

But do i need to have ps+ to redowload it? I don’t have RE1 but I bought other PS1 games for PS3 that would love to put on my ps4

[@deijay7632]

@@DragmaKerp not sure if you still need ps+ but I can confirm it’s worked for resident evil, syphon filter and alone in the dark.

@@DragmaKerp i bought re1-2-3 on ps3 store like 1 year ago, and i got re1 free on ps4-5 because of that. never bought psn, only used free. and no, most ps1 games you could play digitally on ps3 don't work on ps4-5

[@monochromememory8275]

Having all these games on PC will be so nice, I used to have them all on PS3 but I hated that I could never play them on PS4 or 5 and I didn't really wanna fork over 17 a month just to play RE1. Having this collection is so awesome on PC, not only to preserve these classics but to also give people who've maybe only played the remakes to have a chance to experience the classics without having to fork over so much cash to buy a PS1 and the games or go through the hassle of emulation.

Amazing news, I still have my original copies of RE2 and RE3 for PS1 that I've held onto for dear life just to always have a way to replay these classics.

[@grizzlywhisker]

I get that people want these available in an “official” capacity, and they should be so new fans can get ahold of them easily, but these ISO files in many different versions for many different emulators have been available for 20+ years and you can customize the heck out of the settings to get them to run just the way you want. Respect to GOG for doing what they do and keeping DRM nonsense out of our games though, I just have my own preserved collection on hard drives.

[@TombRaider_Remastered]

We need this though because their are a lot of people out their who can’t get emualtors to work Myself included, it’s much easier getting these EASILY ACCESSIBLE without any emulators, needed mods, joy2con like we want just a BUY and PLAY.
