It’s a good question and I’m not sure. Resi 4 will be the first REmake that I’ve actually played the original.

I’ve played REmake, REmake 2 and REmake 3, but never the original 3. For some reason 4 was never my favourite even though it is widely considered the best, so I am suspecting I will enjoy the remake a lot more than original, only because of what I have seen so far from the gameplay.
