I've owned RE2 for a while, and never considered getting the N64 because of the redundancy and the fact that I assumed it would be inferior to the PS1 version. When I finally looked it up, I was surprised to see all of the animation to be intact, as well as a bunch of new features being added. Do you think that this is a good buy for someone who has the game for PS1?

If you are a HUGE RE2 fan, love to collect RE games and have a lot of money, you can consider it. Don't expect major extra's or differences.

This is a list with facts (from IGN):

- Port of PlayStation game.
- All FMV scenes included.
- Improved game graphics.
- High resolution screens.
- MoSys FX Surround sound.
- Faster game play.
- New, hidden costumes.
- Custom feature that allows players to adjust the intensity of the game.
- Change the color of your enemies' blood and adjust the level graphic content.
- Randomizer -- After the game is played once, items will be relocated randomly, adding additional replay value.
- Analog controls and alternate control scheme (allowing for quick turn).
- Rumble Pak support.
- 4MB Expansion Pak Support for high-resolution mode.
- EEPROM saving -- no need for a Controller Pak.

I also bought 2 versions of CV (dreamcast and PS2) and 3 versions of RE4 (GC, PS2 and PC) and I'm not even a huge RE4 fan.

There's also the EX files, which explain more of the background information and tie the game to 3, C:V, and 0 a bit more.

The problems are: No Extreme Battle mode and the sound in the FMV cutscenes is rather tinny.

Are you going to get it?

It could be worth it just for the EX-files.

Hey, thanks I added this to my bookmarks.

Congratz on the 100th post! It seems like most of the newer members' posts dry out after the first 100 but I hope you won't fall victim to this. Try to get to the top 20 posters

I will try
I like the site so far so I don't think I will stop posting anytime soon.

N64 RE2, hmmm, i think it's not that worth playing compared to the original sony releases, one interesting thing in the N64 is the blood color, i think you could change it to blue and green.. it's the sega saturn's RE1 that's worth playing

I would reccomend it you should be able to get a N64 pretty cheap on Amazon

Congrats! Keep going!

I will. I love this place .

I'd just get the GC version. It doesn't cost $50 anymore, so it's all good.
