I was very happy when I first herd that a Resident evil was comingout for the DS. Well at first I will cover what is good about the game first of all the graphics are slightly better not much but a bit there are now to modes classic which is just like the orignal and rebirth which has the items moved around and also lets you use the DS's features by fighting in first person knife fights and solving puzzels. Also in rebirth there are less hunters and more chimeras. There is also 2 mini games knife battle where you must face monsters from the game and survive all 5 stages with only the knife and a wireless play mode where you pick an area from resident evil eithier the Masion,Courtyard or Lab. In this battle mode you can play as many of the S.T.A.R.S Team you unlock them,ve by completeing the main game. However the main downside is that it dose no take very long to complete and some people might get bord by it very quickly. The over extras are a new costumes for Jill and Chris and in rebirth mode an extra boss. I hope you find this review helpful thankyou for taking the time to read it DAVIDRead full review
I bought this because I really love the Resident evil franchise, my experience when playing this new resident evil failed to fully satisfy me 100%. First of all, I would like to say that this game is really entertaining with its 16 bit graphics and 8 bit mono sound quality. RE has still kept me in the game from beginning to end, from its sheer game play to its great story. However, One of resident evil DS's downfalls is that Capcom virtually did little to nothing to revamp the original classic; for example, the sound, graphics, maps, and zombies are pretty much the same from the original. Capcom did throw in some tweaks to fit this generation that include, rebirth mode; which is an enhanced version of the original and classic mode; which is a direct port of the original. This game includes the use of the touchscreen; in addition to that, there is also the ability to view the map simultaneous when playing the game. As I said before I enjoyed playing this game, it is really fun and I would recommend this game to any one who wants a cinematic thriller in the palm of their hand.Read full review
In 1996, Resident Evil was a Very Big Deal. Its laughably acted introduction and dialogue, as well as its rigid structure and limited third-person perspective could be overlooked in favor of its focus towards creeping the bejeezus out of the gamer. Any designer following the classic Resident Evil formula for a game nowadays would be strung up by the critics, but since Capcom's series was pioneering a genre at the time, the now flawed gameplay is strong enough to retain its classic status ten years later even when Capcom's improved and perfected its series for the GameCube and PlayStation 2 in Resident Evil 4. Resident Evil: Deadly Silence is a total throwback to the original game in the series. When I say original, I don't mean the reworked edition developed for the GameCube. I mean, original as in, PlayStation. The Nintendo DS game takes the original PSX rendition as a foundation and hammers on a few elements to take advantage of the dual-screen platform's unique functions. But ultimately what you're getting is the original Resident Evil, warts and all. And while I'm certainly a fan of revisiting truly classic games, it's hard to overlook the elements that were conveniently overlooked by the gaming public the first time around. DS owners are still getting a good solid adventure with some surprises around a few familiar corridors, but let's be fair: any other game from any other company would be slammed if they did what the original Resident Evil does in this day and age. What can be said about Resident Evil that isn't known? We've got two members of the elite military team S.T.A.R.S. lost in a mysterious mansion infested with flesh-hungry zombies, ravenous ravens, and undead hounds looking for a few bones to gnaw on. While searching through the rooms of this massive house, you'll hopefully unravel a mystery involving the Umbrella Corporation, all the while using found weaponry to poke a few holes and pop a few heads of their creations. As a conversion, the Nintendo DS edition of Resident Evil is an admirable production. Everything that was in the PlayStation game, from the rendered and filmed cutscenes to the horrendous voice acting is jammed into an itty-bitty Nintendo DS cartridge. The game's still in its pseudo 3D engine: real-time 3D characters and objects manipulated on prerendered backgrounds; the character models are bumped up in detail for the Nintendo DS game, but the assets used for the mansion rooms are still pulled from the original PSX edition. Accommodating the action is some rather appropriate audio effects to provide a spooky atmosphere, from the haunting low-bass cello score to the wind swooping through the outdoor environments. Even with the game shrunk down to two small displays, at the very least, in the right surroundings, the experience can still be considered suitably creepy. So, for the most part, Resident Evil: Deadly Silence is a great conversion of Resident Evil that tweaks a bit here and tightens a bit there. What was good about the PlayStation version is still good here on a smaller scale, and the added elements do a decent job enhancing the experience and shaking things up for those who've experienced the game a hundred times before. But, honestly, it's hard to ignore all the little quirks in gameplay and presentation that were a bit easier to disregard in the earlier days of 3D adventuring.Read full review
As a Resident Evil fan, I thought I would pay tribute to the series by buying the game for my Nintendo DS. Sadly, I found it being a step down from what I was expecting. Based off the first game, Resident Evil-1996-, this game is pretty much the same as the original with some differences. One, I found that all blood seen in the game was green for one. I realize mostly kid's play the DS, but as a horror gamer I didn't care for that feature. Second, the game is a little different from the original as far as the puzzles go. Now, some I found pretty fun to figure out, but some I didn't like. Also, an interesting thing they did was incorporate new enemies from the remake of Resident Evil. These creatures are seen in the middle of the game and added a twist I didn't see coming. I'm not putting down the game, it did have the classic Resident Evil feel, but this gamer wishes they did something more with it. The mini-game with the knife is quite a fun activity to do in the game, but I don't think it's enough. I can't give it an excellent but I will give it a good.Read full review
This game is good, actualy its really fun, but its really old. Which dosent make it any less fun, but dont expect groundbreaking new features! If you like RE period, then yes you will like this, the graphics are the same, grainy looking cinemas but the extras do still make it fun. new puzzles somewhat quicker gameplay, the d-pad is kinda hard to get use to but youll manage. Dont get this video game nerd wrong though, shooting zombies, shooting rocketlaunchers, mixing chemicals, and bad voice acting is now available in take with you size. Wheres the restroom? Ive got a mansion to re-discover!
