    To me, it seemed they both had the same level of difficulty. They're essentially the same game after all.

    But after looking at your vote results, most of you think CoM is harder. Maybe I think differently cause I always chose Proud Mode for my difficulty setting, where as CoM didn't have one.

    The original CoM by far. Bosses just seem to go down much faster in Re: CoM (and in case you're wondering, I played on Proud) and attacks are so much easier to dodge in 3D. Combine that with the new and improved Stop Raid (or whatever the sleight is called) in Re: CoM and the fact that bosses seem to use cards less frequently in the remake and the game isn't challenging at all. I only died a handful of times in the game even with 80 HP; most bosses can be beaten by putting a repeating Stop + Attack card + Attack card pattern and by throwing in a couple of Elixirs in the end and then mashing the triangle button. Re: CoM was fun, but very easy compared to the original although for someone who has played it through dozens of times, not even the original is very challenging.

    I'd say CoM, since I don't own, nor have I played Re:CoM.
    But I'd probably say CoM even if I did own the other since, in battle you'd have more room to move around (instead of this one tiny little area), and moving around would probably be easier with a control stick.

    I completely agree with you.
    But RE: CoM is way funnier to play. With the cutscenes and the voice acting.

    *Especially Vexen's laugh, because of that and that alone, I'd buy it*

    CoM, barely. Although, neither are really hard at all. With CoM, all the bosses can die in less than a minute, and with Re:CoM, bosses can't break Stock Techniques when they're Braced, and they're even affected by Stop. Re:RR deck changes didn't really affect the difficulty too much either, imo, since the addition of the Bursts and Duels really made Riku a bit overpowered. Ansem doesn't even defend against Dark Aura, making Riku just dominate against him.

    Reg CoM is harder i think, there is no Reaction command to (Duel stance?) at riku's story when u send out the card which has same number with enemy, but RE CoM does

    Ugh, the GBA version. (For me, that is.)

    Things seem so much easier in 3D in Re: CoM, and in the GBA version, you only have a small space to run.

    I haven't played the Re, but it sure looks easier.

    Besides, I think it most likely is easier to run around with the analog stick. Pressing the directional pad practically non-stop and spamming the A button can really make an impression on your fingers...literally.

    The X button on the PS2 is a whole lot easier to press without your thumb begging for a break from playing cards.

    How did you download it?

    I think CoM is harder because there's not much room to move around and in Re:CoM which i didn't play looks easier because there's more room plus when you attack there is so much health that goes down.

    That would have to be CoM. In Re:CoM you get more EXP from enemies, so you level up more.

    I've only seen vids of Re:CoM, but it's obvious CoM is harder. In Re:CoM, you have more space to fight in, and being able to use reaction commands. But CoM, it's just a space the size of a GBA screen, and only being able to use your cards.

    The origanal CoM was actually pretty easy, so Im guesing Re CoM.
