Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis for Gamecube

Post by porkchop87 »

Are Resident Evil 2 and 3 any different on Gamecube compared to the versions on Playstation? I own all Resident Evil games for PSX and I was wondering if there was any reason at all to have these 2 games in my Gamcube collection?

Better graphics not much else.

no difference in part 3 but part 2 you can start in arrange mode which give you unlimited ammo with the chain gun, and the assalt gun.
the graphics are hi-res but that's about it i think. someone correct me if im wrong. :?:

As far as I know they didn't updated the graphics at all for RE2 & 3 and CVX; they just ported them. I haven't gotten around to playing any of those (damn you backlog) but only RE1 got nice treatment from being on the Gamecube.

true but they looked like and i think they do have higher resolution. :)

I swear, I've posted this here twice before. GC and PC RE3 both have sort of halfway improved backgrounds.

But aren't the Dreamcast versions superior to the GC versions?

i think they were just direct ports on both systems no enhancements,just a little bit of hi-rez in the graphics. :)
