I just played the Resident Evil 3 remake last week, never played the original version of this one. Really enjoyed it although it seemed quite short compared to 2 and 4.
I always end up with a load of ammo left at the end of these games as I search everywhere and try to conserve ammo and use larger weapons only for the big nasty mutant creatures.
Also some weapons work better for certain creatures, for instance in this one there were mutant sewer creatures that I would only kill using flame rounds.
I also save regularly and if I totally screw up a segment, (using too much health or ammo) then I will re play that part.
The early Resident Evil games are great fun, with 2 and 4 being my favourites. I do find the Nemesis creature to be a massive pain in the arse though.
