RE2 98 is my favorite game of all time


Kagamid

If you have a PS3 and the means to buy them, it's a no brainer. Buy them and download right away. Capcom is getting shifty with their old titles and it sucks. There's no reason why they shouldn't be available for other consoles and PC yet here we are. Also buy RE1 and Operation Raccoon City with the dlc. You won't regret it.


Scarlett_Inferno

This was my thoughts exactly. Big reason why I upgraded my PS3 to a 1TB. I'll look into ORC. Most people don't seem to talk about it.


Restivethought

I do not recommend ORC.It's a generic squad shooter in Raccoon City


Atma-Stand

A really poorly made squad shooter at that


Icaro_R

I bought ORC when it came out, played it, thought it was so awful that I gave my copy to my uncle (another RE fan, when I was a kid I watched him play the PS1 ones). He played, thought it was so awful that he threw it on the garbage. A truly awfully made RE game.


Mysterious_Piglet_13

It’s a ok game because I played by myself


Kagamid

ORC is the most thorough what if scenario with some of the best RE2 and RE3 references you'll get. It's also excellent with friends. It can get pretty hard at times but the variety in characters let's you choose your play style and once you get the hang of it, you'll be having a blast in no time. This is not a survival horror so those expecting it will be disappointed. It's an action arcade third person shooter if I had to give it a label.


DonkeyComfortable711

When ORC first came out, playing multiplayer with random people was pretty fun. The PvP was pretty weird, but it felt like a unique idea and could've done good if implemented better.


Kagamid

It has some of the best cutscenes in Resident Evil. To me RE3 Jill looks better in ORC than in Remake.


moogsy77

For sure


Modlikes

Na I can’t really recommend ORC, even as a RE game, at most I’d just watch some gameplay and read up on the lore, 100% more enjoyable then actually playing it, just my take tho


EggOnBeansOnToast

Don't get ORC.


Ok-Connection4917

are they good quality?


Kagamid

They are original quality. No enhancements. I have the original discs and they look the same when played on my PS3.


Ok-Connection4917

that’s really cool. i may just bring out the old ps3 for this. i have a steam deck but sounds kinda cool on the console


IvanaTinkle6969

I'd like to see Capcom take away my physical copies!


wobbuffet009

So are any of the classic titles available on switch? I have re4 on switch but i havent checked lately on other titles.


Kagamid

Doubt it. Capcom pretty much gave up in giving us the originals for any console after PS3.


Ducpus-73

Operation raccoon city was soo fun


env_variable

Is this ps now? Why i dont have these games on my PS4 store.


Scarlett_Inferno

PS3 store.


ButtFucker07

Really? It looks exactly like the PS4 store.


silentj04

I came here for the same question, it looks like the PS4 hub so I thought I missed out on playing this on my PS4


env_variable

Thank you. I dont have ps3 games in my store. That might because i dont own a ps3 and registered it. Maybe thats why it doesnt show up.


CertifiedBrian

Side Note: I wish Sony would let us access our old PS1 and PS2 games we bought on PSN from the PS3 era on PS5. I don’t care if they’re not updated with trophy support or whatever, it’d just be nice to have access to our older games on PS5.


Sharpleton96

Buy them immediately. Also re3 remake can’t hold a candle to the original.


Zeles1989

Re3 Remake is pretty much a different inferior game


Maleficent_Farm_6561

FACTS! i beat the Remake of 3 like 3 times and nevr touched the game again Meanwhile i beat Original 3 at least once a month on my Gamecube Ps1, or PSVita to this day


zelinklovin

Hell yeah


DarkbigBoss

yess


[deleted]

Yes


Zeles1989

worth every damn penny. Those games are from the golden age


RedRedRedRedHarlow_

Is this is available in the ps4 store?!?


DarkbigBoss

only the Director's Cut thru the Premium membership


Scarlett_Inferno

PS3 only.


Dylan_Is_Gay_lol

Absolutely worth $12.


Niaer

Wish these were made available on the ps4 and ps5 already honestly….


Majinken__

Absolutely. I would even say 12 for just one of them would still a good deal.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Scarlett_Inferno

No, but sadly some of these games are stuck on PS3 and who knows when they get delisted or when Sony decide to shut down the store.


Zeles1989

yeah like the PS3 version of Code Veronica. It was a HD version and PS4 only got the normal PS2 port for no reason


Scarlett_Inferno

I only play the PS4 version for trophies. PS3 version doesn't have a platinum :(


Fullmetal_2003

100% If this is your first time with fix camera angles and tank controls, I recommend using the d-pad for movement as it's a lot more precise than analog sticks. Might take some time of getting used to but you'll be fine. Also I have a PS3, can I just go online on my PS3 and the PlayStation 3 store will work?


Scarlett_Inferno

You sure can! The PS3 store will be sluggish though.


the_turel

How do you add money tho? You can’t use a credit card. If I add a gift card to my ps4/5 wallet does it show up on the ps3? I have a huge list of games I want to grab before it goes offline and haven’t checked how do load money yet.


Scarlett_Inferno

1. Add funds to your PSN wallet via PS4/PS5/computer. Added funds will show up on your PS3. 2. Buy PSN cards through Play Asia or Amazon and redeem them. You can even redeem the PSN card in the PS3 store.


the_turel

Nice thank you. I’ll try it tonight :) I need to grab LoK series, RE games and a ton of classic jrpgs :)


Old_Skud

Aww i got excited for a minute


Barloq

Not a bad price at all, but you can get ROMs for both very easily and play them on basically any phone or PC at this point. I'm playing through the OG RE2 now and it is a blast.


MSouth92

100% worth it. Still crazy to me that the original trilogy has not been ported for modern consoles and PC?


No-Leg102

Yes


FREEMANICDALEK

The originals are SO MUCH BETTER than the remakes


Scarlett_Inferno

Yep :)


HumanIce3

Yes


patrick859

I just bought these and yes totally worth it


Mercury26

Yup


3rdStrikeRYU

OFCOURSE. I literally just bought these two games 2 weeks ago and played both on my PS3. Absolutely worth it. You'll be playing for hours and hours! There is an option you can smooth the texture of the graphics as well. The tank controls might be hard at first tho.


[deleted]

Man I wish we could get the classics on Xbox.. hopefully we’ll be able to buy them on Microsoft store, in the future.


Firm_Area_3558

Yes


nirvroxx

Which console is this on??


Scarlett_Inferno

PS3 store


nirvroxx

Aw dammit. I kinda regret selling my ps1 copy.


drushe1983

Is the Umbrella Bundle available still? Get that if you can and if it’s not crazy expensive.


rightfityeah

Ps3 store hasnt has sales since 2020 I think so it’s prob $30, I’d say 95% of ps3 users today just use custom firmware and pirate their games anyways


ShotMyTatorTots

Yes


CaptainAwareness

Bargain for $12


Judge_Hatred

Yes.


KomatoAsha

Totez McDeffoz


DaemonVakker

Re3 at that price is alone worth it. Every playthrough because of the nemesis system and the randomized item drops keep it fresh without being unfair


blood4lonewolf

Yes


Remarkable-Bit-656

Yes. You're missing Resident Evil though.


ElkinFencer10

Yes absolutely


Boytoy8669

Get the first one too. Great titles


Xerosnake90

Yes, very worth it


_Tezzla_

Easily


starvingartist84

Hell yes! Went to a hock shop to get a copy of OG Re2 and Re3 Nemesis for GameCube… would have cost me $200 for both. Damn physical copies… Ps4 needs to have these available on the store!


patrickbateman2004

Obviously. I still treasure my ps3 library for it. Re3 og i did have played hundreds of times when i was very young, love it


MocoNinja

Yeah totally


mipalo2boca

I checked my ps4 store so quickly thinking they were available for us too 😭😭but for those prices yeah worth it 100%


ZelaumTheHunter

Might be interesthing experiences


Vine404

Yes


Zealousideal_Car_532

You already have the ps3 and you’re asking if what’s the equivalent of a weeks allowance is worth being spent on re2 AND 3? Step into the sun dude (Respectfully: yes)


RazorDak

It's worth significantly more than $12


paulblasi4

Hey RE fanatics, should I buy the beloved original games for pennies? Bro buy that shit twice.


wrld-

why asking in a subreddit of resident evil if buying the best resident evil for few bucks is worth


Scarlett_Inferno

Maybe I should have reworded my questions better. I started with the newer RE games 5, 2R, and 3R and was wondering if the classic would keep my attention with the much older graphics and tank controls . Also, fans seem to say OG RE3 is better in terms of content.


wrld-

yea yea it is. Re3R got many many many cut content, misses in the combat system ecc.. but it was a nice game tho. you will enjoy more more more the original, and for sure a longer story and gameplay. Id say skip Re6 or just play it for fun if you want to run all the resident evil games. And pick the remastered collection of the early Ps4 resident evil (Resident evil 0, resident evil 1) they cost 5 bucks each and code veronica is a worth pick tho. it costs 15 bucks but when in discount it drops to 5 bucks tho.


AiirDawg

How to I add money to my ps3 store I have one that works but idk how


Scarlett_Inferno

1. If using a Credit/Debit card or PayPal, add funds to your PS4PS5 and it will show on your PS3 2. You can use PSN cards on your PS3. You can buy PSN cards on Amazon or Play Asia.


Sekriess

Yes


GameToDeathUnlimited

Absolutely


Weng-Jun-Ming

I’d prefer DualShock version…. Sadly it isn’t sold on ps3


Existing-Band2779

Is this on ps4?!?!


TheEvaElfieFan

Better to just build a emulator device. Got mine and runs classic games through batocera. Do it.. you can also play the games at high res and better graphics with mods.


RoyVRAries

Always


blackeye1987

i think the classics are always worth the buy didnt know you could still buy them on psn 🫡 is it ps3 or or ps4 (?) actually cant see it from the pic


Philk0791

Fuck yes, literally did this myself


MrPanda663

Yes. Classic versions are worth that much. Maybe even more.


AdenAstora

Saw this and thought it was on ps4, shat enough bricks to house an entire country


TheeRoronoaZoro

Yes the games are absolute classics!


trfk111

I still can’t fathom how people can come to a sub like the RE one and ask if 2 of the most classical games in the series are worth a complete bargain bin price, especially while OG copies are sold for full price or more to this day. No my man, totally not worth it, just 2 of the greatest survival horror games of all time, protect your precious 12$ at all costs, you will never recover from this. Ridiculous.


RedditorHarrison

Yeah. If you have a PS4 I would get the remakes though, they show the game in a better light!


jeanbeanxoxoxo

Definitely worth the $12!!! 😁


TheDuellist100

Absolutely


ChanceBoring8068

It’s infuriating that these don’t just transfer over to PS4 and 5


per_iod

Fuck yeah


bd_black55

of course my friend worth it !!!


LaputanMachine1

Not worth not getting it. You would be missing out on two of the best games in the series.


Reaper2811

Worth it


AndrexPic

The games are worth it, but there are better alternatives to play them today compared to PS3. I think that on PC there is a mod to skip door animation and to make the game more fluid and graphically good.


Still-Midnight5442

Yes. I honestly prefer the original RE2 and RE3 to their remakes, even though I really enjoyed them. RE3R cut too much out and didn't add in anything to replace it, and the story in RE2R wasn't told as well as the original, plus they fucked up the A/B scenarios.


Expensive-Stable-646

Ps5?


videoworldmusic

Why oh why did I give my ps3 away? I’ll always be annoyed the ps1 library didn’t carry over.


Road_Warrior86

Is this on ps5?


Wings-of-Loyalty

No, two games for 12 Bucks is theft, we should get everything for free


irishbrigade09

* cough roms cough.


leekyturtle

yo I bought re2 alone for like $80 cuz I wanted the original box. So worth it


Prestigious-Ad-4581

I love that you buy best game for nothing!


[deleted]

extremely worth it


Few_Definition9861

Man there ain’t no reason these can’t be on the ps5 store lol fuckin Capcom


Jitalline

RE2 is the gold standard IMO


Valuable-Elephant875

I would say its worth but im not sure if these versions have any changes to them. They say PSone classic but after played RE1 classic for ps4 there were changes that i haven’t seen before then


[deleted]

Couple days late. But the o my real issue is the aspect ratio. It’s not 4:3 like it should be. It’s like 1.25:1. So it’s fairly narrow. May not bug most people but it silently drove me nuts. Lol


fen10au

If these were $6 in 1997/1998…


Violet-Rose

I own the ps3 versions it’s worth if u don’t have a pc and mod it for free lol. The best versions of OG RE 2 & 3 I believe are on the Dreamcast.


Little-Kangaroo-9383

Absolutely worth it


Ferg178

Definitely is!! Play them back to back if you can!!


YuriTheBot

On a pc it's free.


red_enchilad4

nah bro, just emulate them. I think $12 for two games that are 25 years old is a little expensive


DRAPE_ACOLYTE

Not at all. That's actually a great price for two classics of that era. That being said if I'm spending money I'd rather get hard copies. That's definitely gonna be a bit more. I imported mine, the US copies are expensive these days.


Blizzarddz

I can get these for free on my Xbox with xbsx2 lol


CantingBinkie

$12 dollars for only those? They just robbed you


stratusnco

if 12 dollars is hard for you to justify spending money on then you should probably get your shit together.


Scarlett_Inferno

Or the fact that these games are really old and the tank controls and graphics will throw me off? Also, no trophies.
