Chris in RE5 doesn't really feel like Chris from previous games, but that's probably just because he's kind of a bland character. That said, sort of like Leon, I feel that RE5 was a departure from the character's origin because of the events occurring between games. Chris is hardened after going through so much, and his bulkiness kind of reflects that, too.
Considering that the RE games take place years apart, while I have attachment to characters I also find it easy to understand when they don't seem exactly the same from one game to another. And besides, in the case of RE4 in particular I'm happy with how Leon turned out; it was good for him to lose the rookie cop persona.
A few years ago I could speed run Resident Evil 2 in about an hour in a half, 15 or so minutes over the current world record. I may actually keep trying this since it is one of my favorite games.
I don't remember much of RE3, so I may actually play through that again.
Which scenario? The A games can be finished in under half an hour. I know I've done Leon's A game in under 27 minutes. Claire's B game is longer than Leon's B but I'm not sure if it should take 45 minutes. I should probably speed run it again to be sure.
My best run was the REmake in under 46 minutes.
Never did speed runs for RE1 but my friend could finish it at around 44. I think someone finished the DS version around 38 minutes.

As opposed to ME1 being 360-exclusive. Because for a long while it was. And really, are exclusives an example of publishers "screwing" gamers?

Claire A
I've never seen these runs on Playstation and Twin Galaxies still has Claire A on Playstation at like an hour and something. kunonabi, do you have a video of these runs that are under an hour or whatever?
You mean Lisa Trevor and the cabin area?I must say I hate the added enemy and location in Remake. They look like something from RE4. Imo very unfitting to RE1 vibe so I actually place it lower then the original.
I never really considered Lisa an enemy, to be honest. Sure, she was always trying to kill you but for those reasons you listed she was more of an obstacle. She was mainly there to add to the already terrifying atmosphere of the game, and she does a damn good job of that. Anytime I hear her moan in the distance I immediately tense up.
This REmake talk is putting a tear in my eyes, I was a PS2 owner at the time and i didnt have a chance to play this game due to Capcom's backstabing (for me at least),,, i played RE1, RE1DC, RE2, RE3 Last escape (jpn), RE3 Nemesis (us) , Code Veronica X, RE4, RE5,,, and i finished them multiple times, but it seems that i missed the best one of them,, DAMN you CAPCOM,,, bring it in HD already even if the backgrounds look like shit.
REmake was made in the first place because the Gamecube's hardware allowed Mikami to express his true vision. And, honestly, I think the game does exactly that, it takes the already good concept of the first game and really cranks up the atmosphere and tension, truly fulfilling Resident Evil's role in the survival/horror genre.

Just buy a Wii, so you can also play RE4 with the best controls and good graphics, RE0, REmake, Darkside Chronicles and Umbrella Chronicles.This REmake talk is putting a tear in my eyes, I was a PS2 owner at the time and i didnt have a chance to play this game due to Capcom's backstabing (for me at least),,, i played RE1, RE1DC, RE2, RE3 Last escape (jpn), RE3 Nemesis (us) , Code Veronica X, RE4, RE5,,, and i finished them multiple times, but it seems that i missed the best one of them,, DAMN you CAPCOM,,, bring it in HD already even if the backgrounds look like shit.

The problem with Lisa is she isn't a threat at all. You can use the stepping animation to avoid her in the cabin, you can avoid her completely in the catacombs, and you can just push the stones in the coffin room. She is a complete non-factor.
Well, the game definitely wouldn't have looked as good on the PS2, though the difference wouldn't have been as bad as the one between the PS2 and GC versions of RE4.If Silent Hill 3 was possible on PS2, then REmake with its nearly static backgrounds would certainly have been possible as well. Let alone on Xbox. The GC hardware had nothing to do with Mikami jumping ship, it was all because of Nintendo's moneyhatting.
Yes, when most of the original fanbase bought PS2 expecting (rightly so!) to see the series continue there.
That's only if you choose to give Barry his gun back. If you don't, Lisa will kill him.The only stupid thing in REmake is how they handle Barry's betrayal with Jill. He pulls a gun on you, you let him help you with Lisa. Then, after the fight Jill totally forgets about him pulling the gun on her. WHAT.

Back in the day I was always hesitant to use Chris, because you're right, Jill has more precious inventory space.I sold my copy of remake a while backI want to replay it.
Having never played the first one, I remember a promo gamestop had where if you traded in sonic adventure 2 battle, you'd get $35 towards remake, so I instantly did it, that first day was amazing.
I must have replayed that game 12 times, never did use Chris lol , I needed jills inventory space B^)
Now that I think about it, Deadly Silence is the only iteration of RE1 that Nintendo-only gamers are able to play, and it was released 10 years after the original game.
It'd actually be really cool if Capcom pulled the same thing with REmake. To celebrate its 10-year anniversary, they release it for the download services or for Vita.
