Have not watched any gameplay or played the demo so I'm a bit in the dark. The original RE3 was worse than RE2 and I think that will continue be the case here. Gonna say 86 which is still a fine score.

Not as high as RE2 probably mid to high 80's. I expect Nemesis to lose the game some points among the folk who found Mr X too stressful.
83-87 seems like a good bet. Don't care though, RE3 is my favorite in the series, and the demo gave me a lot of hope it's going to be great.
We just changed to British Summer Time (BST), so it'll be 4PM in the UK.
And uhh, 86? I'm horrible at these sort of predictions.
This seems like a rushed game to keep releasing RE games every year, sadly.
I'm not expecting high scores. Probably low 80s.

In the Nioh 2 review thread, when one of the first reviews came out and it was a 6, someone here said something like "all the other reviews will be around this". Then the overall is 86...I could swear it was the same person saying that.
It's not a rushed game. Made by different teams with overlapping development.
I feel like it would've been better received if RE2 didn't come out first.
It's going to get penalized for feeling samey.
If he's anything like he was in the demo I really think that'll turn a lot of people off the game. I don't personally mind so much because I fully intend to kill him every time he shows up, but he was way too aggressive and it didn't seem as though you could lose him the way you could lose Mr. X. Coupled with the fact Mr. X wasn't actually in the game that much whereas I imagine Nemesis appears way more frequently and it could be very frustrating for people.
I know that.
Still should've taken more time to offer a meatier game. This won't be on the same level of 2 remake.
We will find out soon enough, anyway.
Jill has been getting the short end of the stick for 18 years now. And REmake 3 is probably as good as we will ever get.
If I would review the game for the campaign alone, I would say it would certainly score above the 90s. Problem is the Resistance component. It will certainly lower the score of a great game. I am confident the single player campaign will surpass RE2R. I will still stick with my vote of 90 or above.
people aren't asking for the same experience as 1999, they're asking for an improved one.
This just feels like making excuses to me honestly. A great game is a great game.
In fact, RE2 remake should help this to have a good score because of the positive perception it had, not the other way around.
Persona 5 scored just as high as P4G, with Royal doing even better.
But if a game has weaknesses, it will only be natural for media outlets to point them out.
As long as it's a solid game then I'll be fine. It's Resi so I'm going be getting every achievement/trophy. If it's actually a bad game on its own merits then I'll be shocked.

Hopefully they put her in RE8 or something.
That seems incredibly low given the demo and pedigree started by RE2make.
In which ways was it worse? The original RE3 brought a lot of improvements and streamlined the formula.

91 was RE2's metacritic score, so that option is for people who believe the game will score as high or higher as RE2.
88-90 is a bit below RE2 and would in American School Systems be a B+ (though I don't fully equate game reviews to school grading systems, just a notable thing).
After that is mid-80s, though I do kinda' wish I had made it 84-87 rather than 83-87 in retrospective.
I like making numbers that have people more having to think about and decide where they'd like to place themselves.
I'm just playing devils advocate, but whose to say that it isn't an improved game yet at the same time still has the cut content. 🤷♂️, I mean personally I loved RE2R and it rivals OG RE2 for me, and that game cut a lot from OG RE2.
Judging from all the things I've read, heard and the little things I've seen, I expect low 80s but the optimist in me thinks that reviewers will grade the game on its merits and not what its predecessor did.
Voted 88-90.
Voted 88-90.
Expecting 70's with most reviews saying "more of the same" of something. I'd really like 3 to get the love it deserves in both sales/reviews (for those who care about those) but I just don't see it.
I'm still pumped!

Gamrankings has RE2 at 93% and RE3:N at 88%. Resident Evil 3 was highly received by critics in 1999.
Why are people saying scores lower than 80? Is this really a possibility? The demo was amazing.
People are acting all doom and gloom based off the spoiler thread which showed that the remake is very different from the original and has cut and swapped out several aspects of the original game. It's only an issue if you have a strong attachment to the original and/or can't let go of the past. For everything that's not there from the original, there's something new that replaces it. Other than that the game looks very solid from what I've seen, but probably won't be as tight as RE2 remake was.
Okay the choices make sense in that context. And that's an interesting reasoning behind the number choices.
Anyway, I'm thinking 88-90. The changes from the original might affect scores negatively (a little), but what I think what will have more of an effect is that the novelty isn't there this time, especially being only a year after RE2:Remake. There was definitely a "wow factor" to RE2's Remake, not so much for RE3.
