Great game, sometimes
I had great expectations for this game. After playing the Resident Evil remake for the gamecube, which is a must have if you own a gamecube, I was expecting the same for Resident Evil Zero. Don't get me wrong this game is great, especially for beginners because you can choose an easy mode which gives you a lot of ammo versus RE1 for the gamecube where ammo is limited even on normal and you must dogde a lot to survive, but RE0 gives enough to shoot down almost every zombie you see, which is cool.
Story 10/10
If you have ever played any of the resident evil games, especially the first one and somewhat like the story, you'll love this game. It answers a lot of the "how" questions. In this game you get to use Rebecca Chambers, from the original resident evil, and Billy, an ex-criminal. Both has thier own weaknesses, but most of the game they are together, so it counteracts.
Controls 7/10
This was the most frustrating part of the game. In the beginning, you have to carry a lot of items and you don't have to much space to do so. You'll find yourself switching characters and inventory a lot, especially if this is your first time and/or you're new to the series. I even had a few troubles and I had a guide. Overall the switching, while cool at first, can be a drag especially because there's so much cool stuff to get, but no enough space to do so.
Graphics 10/10
Gamecube graphics, enough said.
Sound 8/10
Another disappointment. The sound is okay as far as sound effects go, but the background music isn't very scary at all. In RE1 the music had me bitting my nails and wondering what might happen next, this game was so-so at best.
Overall Value
8.5/10
Overall this game was a decent investment, mainly due to the cheap price. If you want a good, cheap game look no further than this game, but get RE4 and RE1 for the gamecube first, as they are better than this one.Vollständige Rezension lesen
