Resident evil 0 wii vs gamecube

Can't say anything for RE 0 but I will always stand by the GC version of REmake. Controls were specifically tailored to the GCs controller, and as a result, movement is so much more fluid/tighter than any other port. Also, in terms of graphics, the lighting/saturation/color in the GC ver. of remake is superior to any port of the game. Only thing Wii has over GC is the entire game being on one disc, and Wii-specific controls for aiming that result in a slightly faster weapon draw animation. Also, might I add that I believe the Wii version looks a bit washed out or "lighter"... really bothers me, but otherwise, there is no content exclusivity between the two.

There has been a lot of debate if they are exactly the same. Pay close attention to the lines for GC.

if you look at the GC closely, you will notice a series of horizontal lines.

Not a fan of that comparison because during actual gameplay the creator of the comparison isn't showing the exact same thing on each screen (GCN and the Wii). It's directly split down the middle, so for example you see Jill on the left and Barry on the right...not a direct comparison of the same screen. Barry on the left and Barry on the right framed up during the exact same time is what's needed for a better direct comparison, like how Eurogamer's Digital Foundry would do it.

I like the Wii version. Control options, shorter loading times, supports widescreen and progressive video... yeah.

the wii version does not support widescreen, it forces 4:3 at all times. in fact, one of the benefits -if you wanna call it that- of the GCN version is that you can use ur tv's zoom features to fill the screen. wii version won't (unless maybe you set your wii to 4:3 first, then it might..)

But filling the screen stretches out or crops the picture. :C

Correct. I mistakenly thought it was it had widescreen support. If the game was originally in 4:3 then that's what I'd like to play it in then, especially since the resolution only goes to 480p and not 720p+. I'll take the Wii version over the GCN version for the controller options, shorter load times, and progressive video support. Oh, and some of the bonus content from the PS2 version was added to the Wii port. Plus, I'm pretty sure the GCN version still goes for quite a bit more than the Wii edition. I got my Wii version for $9.99 new on Amazon.com!

What's the difference between Resident Evil and Resident Evil 0?

RE0 and the original Resident Evil First and foremost, Resident Evil 0 is a direct prequel to the first game in the series. It takes place the day before the famous Mansion Incident and leads directly into those events. If you've seen the intro of the original RE, you'll know that the S.T.A.R.S.

Should you play Resident Evil or Resident Evil 0 First?

Playing Zero before REmake will spoil part of the story. Keep in mind that Zero was originally released a year after REmake too. Buy the bundle and get both. Play RE1 first though!

Is Resident Evil 0 A remaster?

Be prepared to relive the first nightmare in Resident Evil 0, a remastered version of the popular prequel to the original Resident Evil game.

Does RE0 have multiple endings?

The game would feature multiple endings depending on whether Rebecca and Billy survived the events, as the game could still be played if one of the two died. This was changed in the final version in order to avoid conflicting with Rebecca's status in Resident Evil.
