Hello, guys. I want to ask you. Why can't to complete the game with Infinite Ammo Magnum and Rocket Launcher ? Same will be quicker, especially in rules it is told that complete the game as fast as possible :)

Yeah, maybe, but I think with Infinite Ammo possible to get 41-40 min maybe.

Starting from the 'New Game' state is just always how most Resident Evil games have been, really. Unless there's been a New Game + section specified.

I mean there's a reason people have been pushing Resident Evil 2 and 3 this long without Infinite Ammo immediately activated.

I mean there's nothing stopping you from going for a 41 minute run with Infinite Ammo. Personally I think a low 41 minutes without Infinite Ammo is totally possible, it'd just take a hell of a lot of dedication and luck. A lot of RE1 and RE2 runs have been pushed to the point where even a tiny mistake can be a run ender, whereas RE3 is nowhere near that yet, I feel.

I've been wondering the same thing. The whole point of a speed run is to complete the game beginning to end as fast as possible & using infinite ammo just helps w/that. Personally I want to do a run w/infinite ammo & a run w/out but using infinite ammo especially if you're playing on a PlayStation like me is just as much of an advantage as being able to skip all the going through doors sequences like people playing on PC do so it definitely can't be counted as cheating & shouldn't be counted against you or keep you from being able to submit a run because of using it. If PC players can skip all the screens you see when going through doors then PlayStation players should be allowed to use infinite ammo, it's only fair cause honestly even w/infinite ammo on a PlayStation I still can't beat the game as fast as people playing on PC because they can skip all the door sequences which can't be done on any other system. If nothing else there should at least be a category for runs done w/& w/out infinite ammo.

I don't expect using infinite ammo to help me beat it as fast as if playing on PC I'm mostly just trying to find out if using infinite ammo is allowed on a run someone is wanting to submit. I read all the comments above but there's no real yes or no answer & I haven't seen any infinite ammo runs anywhere. I was just saying that if it isn't allowed that it should be if people playing on PC are allowed to skip the door sequences plus if it's not allowed it should state that in the rules so either it's allowed but no one has done it or its not allowed but that's what I'm trying to find out. So are infinite ammo runs allowed on a run someones wanting to submit?

I hope that one day there is a infinite ammo category but otherwise oh well lol. Thank you for the response though.

I'm curious though does that apply to other RE games like the infinite Rocket Launcher or Magnum in RE1, the infinite Sub-Machine Gun, Gatling Gun or Rocket Launcher in RE2 or the infinite Rocket Launcher in RE:CVX?

Ok thats cool & I'm not trying to seem like a jerk or anything but I think there should be infinite ammo categorys for RE 1-3 before a Magnum% category. I mean the only rule in the Magnum% category is you can't use the Grenade Launcher but I just can't see why that would matter. The point of a speed run is to complete the game beginning to end as fast as possible in any way possible that's why there are people that glitch games just to beat it faster when speed running whereas infinite ammo is something you unlock. I don't know exactly how to explain what I'm trying to say here lol but hopefully you catch my drift lol. Anyways thanks for helping me figure all the rules out I appreciate it.

My two cents. I'm not normally active on the forums but i would feel that Infinite Ammo would remove the game skill cap some, leaving quick shooting as the only true skill cap. Infinite Ammo would remove a lot of the RNG yes, but then whats the point if Ammo RNG is removed? at that point it may as well be Light/Easy mode.
