I've fiddled with a lot of them but the only Resident Evil I've beaten is the original 4 (which I've beaten many, many times). Thus far I like it more than the remake, but there are a lot of things I like more about the remake and that's an accomplishment in its own right, greatly enjoying it.

Code Veronica needs to be remade in the worst way. Think they could do good things with it remade.

It's hard for me to rank this one as a lot of my enjoyment has been soured by the fact I'm playing on hardcore, lol. It's still great, obviously. I still think REmake and the 2 remake are still better for now, though I'd probably rank it over the 3 remake.

Just beat it a second time on hardcore mode, and yep, definitely one of my favorites in the series. Maybe even top 3. What would your other two be? Mine are 4, 2 remake, and 6, in that order, and I'm not joking about that last one. Playing it with a friend was a total blast. I think the 4 remake is likely to enter the top 3 by the time I'm done with it though. RE7 and the original RE2.

Is the remake of 1 worth checking out? I think it's been sitting in my Playstation library for awhile and never checked it out

While RE2 is my favorite game in that style, REmake is that style perfected and probably the best remake objectively in that it kept everything from the original, made it look and play better, and added additional content including Lisa Trevor and Crimson Heads.

An amusing thing has swept the RE fanbase since the REm4ke has come out. Thanks to a single user on Twitter doing cute and funny fanart of Ashley as a mouse(a Moushley if you will), there is currently more fanart of mouse Ashley flooding Twitter than of human Ashley, and there's still a very good amount of the latter. You can't just tease Mousley and not deliver.

I love how excited Ashley gets when you do well in the shooting gallery, lol.

For anyone going for 100% completion, the last item/treasure you're probably missing is a Rhinosaurus Beetle that's on the castle wall at the fish fountain near the merchant, the area just after Ashley leaves you the first time.
Also, if you're going for the knife/handgun only achievement, don't do the throw an egg at Salazar's portrait side quest. Throwing the egg counts as using a different weapon.

Just stumbled on a video of Easter eggs and poked through it, and Ashley also has reactions to throwing an egg at her. Wonder if Luis does too.

Apparently Ada Wong's voice actress was chased off Instagram by people criticizing her performance.
Whether you hate the performance or not, harassing the actual person is a real bitch move.

I do think Ada’s voice acting in this game is noticeably awful but you know what I did? Think to myself “Man she kinda sucks haha” and kept playing the game because she’s barely in it anyways. Also, this is RESIDENT f***ING EVIL, are these culture warrior nerds too young to remember that the series used to be infamous as THE example of bad voice acting in video games?

Beat it last night. Overall great game and really enhanced the story over the original.
--
My only real issue is the interaction between Leon and Saddler is a bit too brief. I think the story needs the additional It/U-3 section (or something else) between storming the base with Mike the Helicopter and the rescue Ashley/surgery part to give time for Saddler to communicate/grand stand a bit more.

It's not a great performance but, like, who cares? She's barely even in it and it's just a voice role in a video game, what difference does it make? Why be a dick about it? Beat it last night.

I'm pretty ehhhh on how they handled the villains all around. Saddler and Krauser really aren't even recognizable as the same characters, Salazar pretty much gets all of his dialogue saved for his boss fight, and while they add some interesting layers to Bitores they still barely given him any dialogue so it doesn't actually amount to much. Don't mind shaking some things up but it feels like they just really didn't want to have actual humanoid villains at all and just kept the bare minimum of them to bare at least some resemblance to their roles in the original.

It's kind of funny how the newer games focus on the villains to the point where the main character's lack of depth is intentional, and the side characters are either ignored or die immediately, where as the remakes have pretty much ignored the main bad guys in favor of fleshing out the previously pointless side characters.
