This version released the following year, in 2000. This version can run you about $10 to $30 used depending on where you shop, or you can get it as a digital download on PlayStation 3, PSP, and PS Vita (including the Vita TV) for $5.99 - making this the easiest and cheapest version to purchase today. This was the first Resident Evil game to release with full analog support at launch, so there is no “Dualshock” re-release or anything like that. As vanilla as it gets, this version includes the main game and all bonus content, but the bonus content requires a full playthrough in order to unlock it. This is the original 1999 launch version. While Resident Evil 2 added bonus modes, costumes, files, and more, RE3 mostly centered on small technical differences and availability of content already in the game.

Unlike Resident Evil 2, which released on six platforms (not counting weird de-makes like the GameCom version) and twice on the original PlayStation, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis only released on four, and of those four there aren’t many major changes. Without further ado, let’s dive into Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. Each of these is broken down into subcategories of their own, to make it easier to find something specific (want a better grasp of the dodge system? Scroll to Strategies, etc). Here’s everything you need to get started playing the original version, and I’ve broken it down into categories: Platform, Strategies, and Secrets. Resident Evil 3, the 2020 remake of the original 1999 PlayStation title, already looks like it will be deviating tremendously from what we know, so there’s still plenty of reason to jump back into the game that started it all. Here, I’ve done the same for its sequel, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, for anyone looking to charge through the original before taking on the remake.

A year ago, I wrote a guide for the original 1998 Resident Evil 2 (and its ports) as a way to help any fans looking for the best way to enjoy the original game.
