Evil Dead: Regeneration

Well I've played almost all the Evil Dead games and have to say this one has a great action level,(love the combos with the Chainsaw) but I didn't really care for the other weapons, they really should of added more weapons. although very short the storyline was good, didn't really like the fact that it is a "What If?" game but I got over it. Sam was especially fun to play as. although it got really repetitive, also they could of gave Sam more weapons. Ash was funny but he couldn't speak on command like in the other two games. so every new addition adds but takes away as well. I did not like the ending (AT ALL!) but everything else was awesome!...If your an Evil Dead fan you will enjoy this game. Oh yeah the end level is a fresh idea they added to the series. so over all good game could of been better.

Decent game, but there's way too many things keeping this game from greatness:

• The combat is clunky. No flow. Combos don't really matter as the best strategy is to constantly strafe and shoot if you want to avoid being hit.
• Also the balance is off. For example, I didn't find the Evil Ash mode especially useful until the final boss. Fun mode, but an inessential mechanic unfortunately.
• And blocking doesn't work well. The response is slow and blocking doesn't block most enemy attacks later in the game.
• Overall combat is repetitive and not satisfying.

• 3D platforming was still lousy in this 6th generation of gaming, and Regeneration is no exception.

• The little helper dude Sam was annoying. I understand that was the point, but intent does not wash a negative experience. And when in possessed mode, his music is very grating.

• The cutscenes and story are whatever, as they don't add anything of great interest to the Evil Dead lore. Even Ash's attitude and one-liners seem tame here, compared to the source material, the films.

I'll take a Suda51 game in this department any day. In fact Suda51 should make an Evil Dead game. THAT would be great. Similar games like DMC or Bayonetta... those are also better experiences than what Regenerations offers. I would recommend many other 3D shoot-melee-combo-y games over this title.

• The game is on the short side, can easily be beaten in under 10 hours. I didn't mind however; I was glad when the game ended. Getting through it ultimately felt like a chore, rather than a fun experience.

• - - The graphics are fine. The sound is fine. I appreciate that this game was made and the devs obviously cared. But Regneration lacks the fine-tuning of a great game. Evil Dead: Regeneration is a product of its time. Kinda cool but lacks depth, and the combat isn't satisfying and varied enough to invite replays.

One playthrough was enough. I'm sure there's gamers replaying this now with their nostalgia goggles on. That's fine. I'm playing this for the first (and only) time in 2020. My only nostalgia is for the Evil Dead films, so I was very unbiased--but hopeful--going into this game.

Glad I played it. Kinda neat. Nothing great or particularly memorable however. After two 3D Evil Dead games, I expected more. But the devs didn't seem to learn enough from those previous attempts. What's sadder is that this is apparently the best game of the three. YIKES.

Underwhelming. And yet, the Evil-Deadness of it all and Bruce Campbell's V.O. elevate Regeneration to slightly better than average. Far from being a bad game, I'm still left with the feeling that this was another missed opportunity to honor the Evil Dead property. Those films deserve a great game, and I'm worried we'll never get one.

OK first things first,this game is not the greatest game ever released.It will never win awards for graphics storyline or gameplay.It's really just another devil may cry clone yet even with all these stacked against the game it's still brilliant. Yes it may sound like a contradiction but this game really is fun to play.It may be repetitive and unoriginal but what sets this apart from most games of a similar nature is of course,Mr Bruce Campbell.Hell one of the only reasons that most people would have bought this game would have been to see Ash once again slice and dice whilst delivering the most cheesily entertaining one liners imaginable. Is this game worth 50 quid?No far from it,but if you pick this baby up second hand your in for a treat.The extras featuring campbell alone make this game worth buying

Rated M for Strong Violence,Blood,Gore and Some Language.

The most recent game I got was Evil Dead Regeneration which was about a week ago.This is the newest game in the Evil Dead series of games which were based on the films.I have never seen the films.This game is not bad.Its pretty fun especially when you have the little midget sidekick named Ssam who you can kick around.He also makes funny comments.At first the game is pretty hard especially when you have hoards of zombies coming at you but after you get Sam it gets easier.This game is a horror/action game with comedy.Bruce Campbell who was ash in the movies is the voice of ash in the game and he has really funny one-liners.So does Sam Ash's half deadite sidekick.The game is about a man who must kill all the zombies.Evil Dead Regeneration is an alright game but I suggest buying it at a cheap price.

7/10

After two bad Evil Dead games, it's a breath of fresh air to have a good one.

The graphics and controls are great. It's strange that you have unlimited ammo. (Not that I'm complaining.) The cut scenes are fun, and I'm not a big cut scene fan, but if you're an Evil Dead fan, you're in for a treat.

The comedy and horror elements work really well. This is both funny and scary. Something the last two games lacked.

The levels are great and Sam is a great character to play when Ash possesses him. The music is also very good. The best part is when Ash turns evil and we hear that great heavy metal music rocking out.

Everything that was bad about the first two games has been corrected. The developers really took their time with this game.

If you're an Evil Dead fan, you won't be disappointed.
