Multiplayer
Wouldn't it be nice if this game had some sort of multiplayer mode? Now, I know some people might be like "No, that's not the true RE, RE should stay single-player". Although, when RE for the DS was released it did in fact, feature multiplayer. Also, originally, RE was planned to be a multiplayer game/co-op game; just like it was also planned to be a FPS game at first. I just think it'd be cool if the game did at least feature some form of multiplayer.

I think it would be great too. I like the action-gameplay of the later games, even if I prefer the survival horror earlier games. But even the first Resident Evil had a Battle Mode (on the Saturn version anyway), which turned into Mercenaries.

A Score Attack Vs. mode would be great, or a co-op mode where you just shoot your way through the mansion or something would work too, so long as it was an extra and not incorporated into the main game.

I don't think it'll be happening for this port, but I'm hoping that if they re-release Resident Evil 0 that they incorporate some form of multiplayer, at least shared-screen of some sort.

It'd be a cool idea as it was once planned and all... but I feel at this point something like that might work better IF they port over RE0 since you use two characters throughout most of the game. On the other hand, I see what you're saying about maybe an extra game mode that would be nice as well though I'm perfectly happy as things are.

Yeah, I was just saying for perhaps, more replayability. And I think it'd be fun teaming up with friends accomplishing missions.

Well I don't know where, but I heard that as well about their original ideas on Resident Evil being FPS and or Multiplayer.

Yes, what I said was true. You're free to look it up if you wish.

Very specific comment. (Sarcasm)

Nope, no multiplayer...

However, it would fit perfectly RE 0, this is as if the gameplay is alwready made for it.

In regards to it originally being an FPS:

http://www.psu.com/feature/6698/The-History-of-Resident-Evil--The-Beginning

Mikami himself said it was going to be an FPS, but they changed it as it was inadequate.

In regards to it originally featuring multiplayer:

"In pre-production, other characters were conceived. Dewey, an African-American man, was intended to perform a comic relief role, while Gelzer, a big cyborg, was a typical "strongman" character. Both were later replaced by Rebecca and Barry, respectively. At this stage of development, a local co-op mode was present, along with different outfits. A prototype made for the 1995 V-Jump Festival presentation in Japan featured real-time weapon changes, with the co-op mode already removed and rudimentary character models and textures. An early 1996 preview in Maximum Console magazine featured a graveyard and a slightly different version of the final boss."

Keep in mind, I'm not referring to story mode.

A MP Mode where all Players start in random locations, shoot themselves in the leg and the winner is the last one too bleed out. One good strategy would be to outsmart the other Players by staying in your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ room! It's a good idea... yes, unless... unless an unscripted Zombie decides it's a good time to pay you a visit by breaking into your room and scream AAAAAARGH! SUCKER! Dinner is served! That's the moment when you realize that being smart has nothing to do with luck. You're Dead! Time for a new strategy... Oh, I forgot to say that you only have one bullet. And... by the randomness of chance, you could end up spawned in a room with a Zombie... or two... You have your trusty knife though...

What would you do... ?

Use the knife and carve some zombie sammiches.

Better than being bitten and eaten alive.
After that I'd crawl to other players and offer some tasty sandwiches.
