Resident Evil: Origins Collection Standard Edition - PlayStation 4

This is a great package game for us to revisit the origins of Resident Evil. Updated graphics keep it interesting and bring more depth to these classics.

I've been a Resident Evil fan since the first game in the series. I've played and own pretty much every major and main game in the series, and yet I could not help but pick up this release. The package includes both the Resident Evil Remake and Resident Evil Zero both in HD with new control options and Trophy support. If you have never played either game then this is an easy buy, just remember this is old-school Resident Evil . However, even if you have played these games before the price is fair so it is not a difficult purchase.

If you've never experienced 2002's Resident Evil for Nintendo GameCube or Resident Evil 0, you have skipped out on two of the better survival-horror games ever released. But if you have, it's so worth re-experiencing them on current-generation hardware. Though these titles have been released digitally Xbox One, PS4, and Steam, they have been neatly packaged in physical form for consoles, something I've personally waited to see. The games look as great as they did over 10 years ago, with updated graphics and a widescreen feature. Widescreen does cut off some of the picture since maps are pre-rendered, but the loss is minimal. You can always revert to 4:3 if it's not to your taste. There are also updated control options. Directional controls can be made relative to the camera rather than to the character. Controls relative to the character's point-of-view could confuse some players, so this addition may be welcome for some. This, of course, can be faulty when perpetually moving through a space such as a corridor and the camera changes--the direction you are pressing may now be different than what you're moving. When this happens, a stutter or stop in movement will reset the directional control, which may be slightly irritating at times. Though these are much older games, I personally feel that they're worth the price tag.

All the gameplay, all the story, all the fun of the original game now in HD, on my PS4, great game if you're a fan of the original game.

Biggest fan of the Resident Evil series. Glad we have physical copies of these. Wish they would do the rest. Best Buy sent the purchase quick and fast. No damage upon arrival.
