Back to the roots?
But what are the ingredients that will appreciate the fans of classic games in the series so much? It's the dark, tastefully decorated mansions and narrow corridors, where at any time good Place shock moments let the player's heart slipping into his trousers. The ominous music that gnaws subliminally on nerves. They are the key items that needed to be used in the best point-and-click adventure-style at the right place and the challenging puzzles, were partly very beautiful stumbling blocks. And of course, the darlings of many zombies that would I like to see love again in a Resident Evil. And what of the offers Resident Evil: Revelations?
The big steamer, the SS Queen Zenobia, the furniture of a Resident Evil proves itself as a grandiose backdrop, threatening and dark, absolutely worthy! With quiet strumming a wing accompanied the action. Toll! While there are also key items like "key with anchor emblem, but these are rare, and again undercut numerically skillfully by right puzzle variation. Too bad, that's pretty much my only gripe, which should not have been. In that one place of zombies weird creatures oppose that have been infected with the T-Abyss virus, I can overlook, at least they stuck like their undead relatives many shots, and thus ensure the certain lack of ammunition-kick. Nevertheless, I would Zombies but, as neat puzzles in a possible sequel seligst back wish.
Resident Evil: Revelations XXL
By implementing HD offers not only all finally those who do not call the 3DS her own, the opportunity to Resident Evil: Revelations catch. You also get the same time, thanks to various improvements in detail, a certain value, the largest even on the Wii U.
On the 3DS Resident Evil made: Revelations already an excellent figure, a good basis so that the game convinced graphically on the home console. And in fact, thanks to its high resolution, the cutscenes better come to validity and also the textures are mostly sharp. Nevertheless, every now and then appear muddy its kind that does not really spoil the overall impression. Compared to the 3DS the dramaturgy more classes is more intense. While not once even close hired on the handheld with me something like goose bumps, some scenes on the big screen seem much bleaker.
Also on all HD consoles to the new difficulty has superadded hell, in which not only the enemies are harder, no, the goods were placed alternatively. Who are the right investment at home, can now also look forward to a surround playback. And since every controller can show two analog sticks, a paper like the Circle Pad Pro luckily is unnecessary.
Who then has the choice of being able to choose between several versions, should grab U version for Wii. Funny gimmick are the so-called death messages that can be set at the virtual demise in the Miiverse, ZombiU says hello.
But larger argument for the Wii U version is the operation via touch pad. It can be used to conveniently select weapons, take healing herbs and always see the area map, without having to constantly change the menu. Very nice! Nor can the mystery of the door mechanisms like the 3DS with a specific finger swipe on the touch pad to solve.
Conclusion
Resident Evil: Revelations has already convinced me on the 3DS and scores atmospherically on the large flat screen TV again more. Although the move was not quite back performs a tradition and this part is only a fair compromise of old and new values, so I can recommend this offshoot mainly because of the really exciting action each Resi fan. But even those who on the 3DS already had with the T-Abyss virus contact should exclude the purchase of the HD version does not partout because Resident Evil: Revelations on the HD console far Moody comes as pocketable.
