I mean, Resident Evil 2 Remake can be done in one hour but my first playthrough was 7 hours, so don't see the fuss about RE3 being short. Real problems are downgraded physics, Nemesis awkward AI and teleporting, Nemesis being too "scripted" in when he chases you compared to original RE3, laziness eg lots of reused assets from RE2, and I mean LOTS. Also getting RE5 and RE6 flashbacks with Carlos punching Hunters all over the place. I thought we were done with that Capcom?!
So yeah, 9 from IGN is very generous, this is max 7.5/10 from me, wouldn't be surprised it was rushed because of bad reception thier new project Resistance got so they rushed RE3 to bundle it with Resistance. Too bad one of my favorite RE games was rushed like this.
Will still play the heck out of it though as I adore Resident Evil.
