Not Resident Evil 2, but a very small demo area, over and over. I've been a diehard fan since they released the first game. I didn't have a memory card so I kept beating the game in single sittings. Memories....
The release of the Resident Evil 5 (well, Biohazard 5) demo was the first time I ever created a Japanese account on my Xbox 360.
RE2's enemy design is probably the peak of successful body horror in the entire series, IMO. Birkin especially is a masterpiece....Just wait until we see these guys in HD with animations of biting Leon and Claire. The G-Adult and G-Young enemies are probably going to be tougher than zombies and will stress out even RE2 veterans.
Absolutely, the G Virus and the body horror is obviously inspired by Alien. I hope the chestburster scene with either Irons or Ben is in.
There was a stream earlier where we got to see the game over animation, which was surprisingly tame compared to some of the craziness we've seen so far,
Good, Leo is too handsome to have a graphical death ;-------;
(Tbh i hope they are saving the bad ones for stronger enemies)
Umbrella Chronicles was pretty good casting,
We got the best Jill out of it.
Crazy deaths are a big deterrent for me. It's one of the reasons Dead Space 2 freaked me out so much. Dying during that eye surgery or some of the other deaths in that were super rough to watch.
It was from someone on Reddit, but this link should be timestamped.

It certainly wouldn't be an unusual expectation, every mainline RE game starting with 2 has had an available demo (Except for Code Veronica maybe?). Hope it shows up sometime :)
Looks like they're letting Maximilian get some direct capture footage of the demo. He usually does his best to get stuff in the best quality he can, so that's good news.
So people pulled up maps of RPD, and it looks similar in size to the original. With this perspective, and no loading between doors... People are going to be flying through the police department.
Im wondering where they pad on / add new areas.
They already mentioned it sounds like we'll be playing the CGI prologue, which is pretty smart. Everything that was CGI should be playable instead now, to bring the player closer to being there.
I guess they could expand the sewers, but thats a pretty boring location (in most games). I could see a much expanded train / frieght yard being intresting, especially if you put an arena fight there before decending. The labs could use some love, but I'd hope they'd keep the iconic core / radial design and just add outward. Raccon City could use some love, but kinda goes against the plan to stay off the streets. Thats kinds the tension of the whole game once the threat becomes apparent; to find an alternative way out.
Wasn't the Mayor paid off the same as the Chief? I could see going to city hall, as its got to be close only to return to RPD to find his daughter and Irons.

It looks like the department map is actually a bit more convoluted than it used to be in terms of where the doors are, though - actually opening up shortcuts might be a slower process than it used to be.
It also looks like there are *more* puzzles and locks than there used to be, too.
The police station was the most fleshed out area of the original, so it probably didn't need as much pad/adding on to compared to the other areas they could work with. More city before the station, more to the tunnels/sewer section, could make the industrial area that the lab is under more fleshed out with more of the rail area/marshalling yard, lab itself could be made bigger or more complex, etc.
They have a lot to work with, in all honesty.
More than anything I hope they heavily, HEAVILY expand the entire section between RPD and the lab, including the lab itself. I'd be pretty content with the RPD we have in the original but everything after it was far too small.
Would also be very nice if a new area was added as an addendum to either the garage, sewers or lab via a door that was locked in the original. It's been over a decade since I've replayed it but I'm sure there were a few doors or paths I wondered to myself at the time what would have been behind them if I could explore.

I think I saw somewhere that they were fleshing out the later areas to be more similar in complexity to the RPD
Eurogamer expo perhaps?
Demo is coming to the UK 'soon'. I might seriously try and go to wherever it's being demoed.
Adding to the Lab would allow them to maybe make new enemies. With everything being connected some stuff will roam outside its original areas as well.
Not sure about the Demo, they probably know that people will datamine the fuck out of it even on console.

DuskGolem said 80% is new, we do a glimpse of a church too. Possibly the return of 1.5 areas like the factory (I hope)
Polygon have put out an article confirming Hunk and Tofu won't be DLC and that the alligator boss fight will be in the game.

Imagine having a campaign as meaty as RE4 or RE5 (at least they felt meaty to me) in RE2? Good God
What I want is much more replay value for the game. I want at least an arrange mode and several difficulty modes. Possibly DLC for expanded arrange modes where items keeps being reshuffled. Or even an official randomizer would be dope as hell. Hunk and Tofu too for sure.
Marvin's role in the remake seems similar to 1.5.
Where is this from ?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CAPCOM
CAPCOOOOMMMM
I'm so in. Fuck. I feel privileged.
It would be funny if they put something like this in
(REV2 Concept art)
for searching Chris' desk multiple times.

I thought it was just me that was addicted to Ada.
I'm addicted to all of Ada. It's obvious why Leon enjoys getting blue balls'd by her.
I posted this earlier in the thread but...
Some random baseless, or at least mostly, speculation but I could see them making both Leon and Claire's campaigns distinct by having it so only Claire encounters Mr. X while Leon does but has far more encounters with William Birkin as he transforms more and more.
Speaking of Birkin with consideration to the very in depth and visceral gore and damage system they could do some really cool stuff with William and how much he transforms through out the game. Seeing his body deform, rip open and mutate with the full power of the RE engine is gonna be some crazy shit!
This scene could be really fucked up as we watch as the last remnants of William Birkin let out a bloodcurdling scream as he is subsumed into his horribly mutated form while a new monstrous head explodes from his torso to "take over".
I'll never forgot the giant miquito things in re4 that puke acid vomit on him and melt his face off. so so so so gross
Well, Damnation implied that they have had a fling or two in the past, so it is not always a strict build up of tension with no release.
Well, you know what the solution to that problem was though right?
All I want.
He needs his full moveset though so I can hit Mr. X with a Shun Goku Satsu!
