CFW ps3 is my guess. talk about playing the game started once it leaked online. i'm personally waiting for the pc version
Same for me, looking forward to it.
Well except the part about the PS1 version. My PS1 RE game was always RE2.

Damn, this got me excited about a physical PS4 version:
But it looks to be just a download voucher

A little PSA to people playing REmaster for the first time. You get this difficulty selection screen when you first start the game:
You might think you're choosing between easy, normal, and hard. But it actually corresponds to very easy, easy, and normal. Very easy is new to this version of the game, and as it implies, it's really easy. Hard is unlocked by beating the game once.
I've seen some people get confused by the screen, thinking they chose normal when they actually chose easy.
So, if I played the original on the PS1 on normal, I should pick the 1st option now to get the equivalent difficulty level?
Are you sure!? that's weird
I've started it manually, just entered its page and pressed the download button, for some reason it didn't start automatically, maybe it's fucked up.
Maybe i should just cancel it and re-download it or something.
What about the Theme, did you get it?
At least the question itself is a bit clearer than it was in the original remake.
Call me crazy but when I first played the game I wasn't sure if Mountain Climbing was the harder option or in fact the easier as in "Oh, video games are difficult to you? Then we'll make it nice and easy for you".
In the end I made the correct choice but still, a bit misleading.
Did the harder difficulty limit the number of rounds in a mag's inventory slot? That might be why I remember the game being much harder as a kid, choosing the wrong difficulty due to the description confusing me.
Are you sure!? that's weird
What about the Theme, did you get it?
Whaaat. It's only downloaded 3gb now, that's really weird.
Also I wasn't aware we were meant to get a theme for pre-ordering?
If so, nada, haven't got it either.
Is pre-load for the PS3 version up too?

RE Remake is a vastly different beast from the PS1 version. I will say its a good bit harder in general, but... not a hard game per say. If you beat the first game on normal, you should have a general sense about the old RE style to play this one on its "normal" as well.
Personally still can't tell the difference between the two modes haha.
I'm talking about the PS4 version.
And I was wrong, it does downloads the full game, you can see it when checking the game's info (hover over the game--> press options--> information, there you can see it keeps downloading until 15 GB)
And yes we are suppose to get a theme, Don't see it though.
Just checked, there is a PS3 Resident Evil theme in my downloads list now, but not PS4.
I really can't remember the difficulty difference between RE1 and REmake, but normal is a pretty safe bet as starting difficulty if you want something challenging.

To my recollection the original was the hardest of the old REs, so if this is significantly harder I might consider the 2nd option. I do want some challenge though.

a happy medium with difficulty is to play on normal, but be sure to use jill. 2 more inventory spots and you start with the handgun

That's no longer true on the REmake.
Nope, it's available already, downloading as we speak.
Melchiah

Yeah, I remember playing as Jill being easier in the original.
So, there's no difference with the characters?
Damn, this got me excited about a physical PS4 version:

Craaaaaaaap!

I love Pokken!
Huh i'm pretty sure that's how it worked on GC REmake. Unless they changed that in the remaster

Will I like this if I didn't like RE1 on PS1 a whole lot? My RE craze started from RE2.
You do get more slots with Jill. That's why I played as her first.

Remake is a huge improvement over the original and better than Resident Evil 2 imo.

Yeah harder difficulty had less ammo in all the pickups.
Arrange mode in the PS1 version had double ammo.
Well worth a shot.
It's still Resident Evil 1 at its core, but it's a significant upgrade in every single respect, with some new additions and other twists to the original game. Even if you didn't like RE1, if you like any of the others then this is absolutely worth a second look.

And info on the differences between the difficulty levels in this one?
Host Samurai

Standard old skool Resident Evil between difficulty settings. less scarce ammo and stronger enemies. I dont think enemy's have been arranged in different locations or if there are more enemies.
Razgriz-Specter

Not sure but heard that the new "Very Easy" is the same damage and such a Easy but more ammo and health items.

I'm skipping that setting on the first playthrough, as I want to have some challenge. I wish there was info on the differences between the other two settings.

Didn't one have a lock pick at first?
Aren't they just the same easy and normal from Gamecube?
SargerusBR
I love Pokken!
Jill starts with lockpick and a handgun and +2 inventory slots. Chris starts with a knife and a lighter
One difference between normal and easy on REmake was
Well...at least for me that was the most glaring contrast, I'm pretty sure that there are another ones...
that you had shoot Lisa in the fight at the altar otherwise Barry or Wesker falls down on the pit, on easy there's no need to lure Lisa's attention
That explains why it feels so much more forgiving this time through.

That's debatable. I love the RE series and I think RE2/3 are better than the first one. So the franchise definitely "developed" along in a good way I'd say. It changed focus once RE4 hit.

I haven't played the GC version.

Finally, the game is up for preload on my PS4. But why is its size only 3 GB? Is it normal, guys?

It will download the rest in the background. Press options to see the status.

Just check it while it is downloading. Status says it is still 3 GB. Will check it again after download is finished

On which next gen console ver. This runs/looks best? Would like to pre-load this thing now as soon as I get the word from you brahs.

I would assume it runs exactly the same. The game is mostly just pre-rendered backgrounds with, at most, a handful of character models on-screen. I believe the game will have parity between Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Good to know and thx for the info. Was hoping PS4 had an upper hand. I'm on it, pre-loading.

For this kind of game I would have been really surprised. But, I have no doubt that both versions will be identical upon release as this game really shouldn't be that hardware intensive.
What I was getting at is that the info you wished for is out there if you just look up the gamecube differences.
