A decent conclusion of the original trilogy. It's a concise and fun game, and although it was originally developed as a spin-off, it has some unique features, such as slight non-linearity and randomness in locations. And the Nemesis mechanic became a very important element of the series, which lives on to this day in many incarnations.

it's pretty great, but the later areas definitely feel a bit rushed compared to everything leading up to the clock tower. That was initially where the game was supposed to end, and it kinda shows. Still, a great game.
Honestly the best of the PS1 era. I love how the game puts you contastly on nerve-wracking situations, so there's always a sense of paranoia and fear to move on. The only thing I disliked was the forced Nemesis battle on the clocktower. On my first run I got myself softlocked since I didn't have any health items on that save and my ammo just wasn't powerful enough to defeat it. Kind of a bummer. I replayed to whole thing up to that point and made sure to save at least four mixed herb items, and I beat the bastard on my first try just by literally spamming the granade launcher and upping my health once in a while. My point is: this battle isn't difficult, you just have to be lucky enough the first time to have kept enough useful items, because otherwise you're absoltuely fucked. Even considering this, it's an absolutely stellar game. Going for the remakes of both 2 and 3!
re2 remake is just as great as the original re3, but it is still worth it to play the remake of 3, even though it is miles apart in quality it is still a short fun time, but very inferior in every way to the OG.
A welcome step up in challenge from 1 and 2, but the level design is a step down. I prefer the hub-based structures of the mansion or the police station over 3's outdoor treks from one small building that you're only in for a few minutes to the next.
it's very close though
