Resident Evil 3: Nemesis - By: Hayley Jackson, 25 Sep 2008 
Since the mansion incident we've had Resident Evil 2, but what happened to Jill Valentine, well you're about to find out. Resident Evil 3 brings back Jill Valentine as she tries to escape the horrorific montsrosity that Raccoon City has turned into. Undead monsters roam the streets trying to thwart Jillin her quest.
There's monsters old & new here, plenty of action, plenty of puzzles to solve, great graphics & some creepy music addedin the mix too. I enjoy this game mainly because Jill is,in my opinion, the best Resident Evil character. Don't let the fact that this game is a port put you off, it is fantastic, & I can safely say I much prefer the gamecube controls anyway. This is mustin any resident evil fans collection, I'd recommend it to anyone.
Stop moaning about it being a port - By: Ashley Dutton, 09 Aug 2008 
I just want to address those complaining that it is simply a port over, a carbon copy of the PS version.
Yes it is. Capcom never said it was going to be a full remake like RE1. This release is simply to allow GC users who may not have ever owned a Playstation or Dreamcast to finally own this game. I think them porting it over & releasing it for GC is a wonderful thing. Yes it 32- bit graphics, yes its exactly the same game, no there are no new bits or alternate layout with massively improved graphics. But with a game this good, do you really need it?
If you don't own this game on any other console, then get it, it is one of the best Res games out there & far superior to RE4. Ignore the people complaining about it only being a port over, they obviously are annoyed at themselves for not reading the information about this product clearly.
this game is brilliant & well worth a tenner if you don't have it on other consoles.
Five Stars!
"Starz" Creepy goings on in Raccoon City - By: Zabba, 18 Jun 2007 
This is my first "traditional" Resident Evil game after completing Resident evil 4 on my PS2, I thought the pre-rendered backgrounds & different controls would put me off a bit, but this game is fantastic.
Of course for Resident Evil fands who have experience of the series, they would have no problem with controls & know exactly what to expect from the series, but I didn't have a clue, & that just made it better...
The Pre-rendered backgrounds provide & excellent atmosphere for a game originally released for PS1, if it camein full 3D the experience wouldn't have been the same with dodgy polygons. Whilst charatcers are fairly simple looking, the enemies still look freaky & just great, minus the detail that comes with the advanced technology of the 6th Gen systems.
The game controls are perfect one you get used to them, & both the eerie sounds of the different locations & the puzzles & enemies you encounter are well thought up & provide an excellent gaming experience.
The main story of the game is Jill Valentine trying to escape from Raccoon City before it's destruction (which she is unaware of throughout most of the game) & trying to survive the zombies & getting hunted down by The Nemesis, that messed up dude you can see on the box art. His presence is genuinely terrifying, as you'll just be walking along & he'll stroll through the door, forcing you to make a quick in-game decision on what to do, which affects the overall ending. This idea of a choice is really good & it adds an extra level of interactiveness into this survival game. If you're not given a choice, you'll be legging it as fast as you can as he catches up to you really fast with a big rocket launcher. Scary times.
Now obviously the game is only scary the first time you play it, some would argue it's not even scary, but it does make you jump, which is great! If there are people of a nervous disposition, wondering whether this game is worth it, it is, it's got gore & some creepy scenes, but nothing that'll keep you up all night with the light on.
Overall it's a fantastic game, but it loses a star because of the fact it's a direct port of the PS1 game, & not remade like the original, also the game is quite short, & will take you 10 hours at the most to play through.
Highly recommended!
worth every penny - By: R. Fisher, 07 May 2007 
Ported from the ps1 with slightly improved graphics nemesis arrives on the game cube.
Picking up after the events of resi 1 S.T.A.R.S member Jill valentine finds the city overrun with zombies as she attempts to escape with the help of mercenaries only to be hounded by the unstoppable monster nemesis.
Yes it's the same game you played nearly a decade ago & as a result can feel slightly dated but deadly bosses & intense live action scenes, complete with bonus mercenaries mode make this an essential game to own. The last truly great resi until 4 its worthy every penny you pay for it & then some.
The nemesis returns - By: , 24 Mar 2006 
Resident evil 3 was origianally releasedin november 1997 & was a brilliant game. Jill was brought back from resi 1 & the story was that jill had to escape from the t-virus infected raccoon city. When it was released on gamecubein 2003, many people thought it would be like the gamecube version of resi 1 with amazing graphics & new parts. However, this like resi 2 on the cube has the same graphics (except for the arms & legs which have been smoothed out) as the original. But that dosn't matter. The nemesis is the best boss ever & meets you around fourteen times depending how you play the game. That is also another good feature. Just like the original at certain parts you can choose what to do next. it makes the game evn more fun. As well as this though, nicholai isin it & he is really cool, not as good as wesker though. Anyway, nemesis is bloody awesome & at parts is equipped with a rocket launcher. Half way through he loses this weapon & uses tentacles which is probably harder because you find yourself being slammed into the ground a lot & jill is proper slow at getting back up. The storyline is good & the game itself is probably better than resi 2. Even thoughin this game, the police station isin it too. There are some amazing weapons too such as handguns, assault rifles, grenade launchers, mine launchers, shotguns & the legendary magnum. There is also a bonus minigame which can help you earn even greater weapons such as a gatling gun. The city itself is full of monsters includin zombies, brain suckers, drain demos & the hunter. There are many locations & it is quite confusingin parts. Anyway this is a brilliant game no matter what anybody else says so GET IT NOW!!!
