Resident Evil 3: Nemesis: Nemesis
If you remember the originalResident Evil 3, you’ll recall the stress of encountering the brutish tyrant known as Nemesis. Well, the tables have turned, as a new fan-made mod for the classic game lets you play from the perspective of the rocket launcher-wielding beast.
Titled “Nemesis Scenario,” curious fans may download this mod fromModDB(thanksDSO Gaming). You can also check the video below to see what it’s like to fill the (heavy) boots of Nemesis and go stalking the streets of Raccoon City looking for members of S.T.A.R.S.
Flipping the script
Created by retroResident EvilmodderKomizo, “Nemesis Scenario” comes with two game modes. The first is the original, which lets you playResident Evil 3from the titular antagonist’s point of view. The second is “Arrange Mode,” in which you hunt down S.T.A.R.S. and mercenaries, but without the story from the main game.
The video demonstrating the mod certainly takes away the tension typically found inResident Evil 3. You”ll see Nemesis easily take out regular zombies, with cut scenes from the 1999Resident Evilentry interspersed throughout. It kind of fits canonically, showing what Nemesis was possibly up to while Jill and Carlos frantically worked on puzzles.
While both the original version and theremake ofResident Evil 4left a big impact, many have not forgotten the classic entries in the series.Resident Evil 3and its remakewere not necessarily celebrated installments. But the 1999 release still counts itself among the first iconicResident Evilgames that established the franchise.
Speaking of remakes,Capcom recently askedwhichResident Evilgame fans wanted to see get remade next. Some fans may believeResident Evil 5‘s turn is due, but Capcom has made no announcements at this time. For now, if you have the originalResident Evil 3on PC, you can check out Komizo’s Nemesis mod.
