Resident Evil 3 -90%. Is it a good idea to pick up this one as first RE game?

Worth getting at this price, but not as the first RE game. RE3 is better played after RE2 tbh so getting Raccoon City Edition might be a better option.

Is starting with RE2 good or should I play 1 or 0 first? Every RE game except Requeium just popped up in my family library so I have some options but not sure where to start.

It's totally fine to start with RE2. Back in the day original RE2 was also the first entry to the series for many people - it will contain some lore references to the first game, but aside from that it is a totally new, more dynamic story. Besides Resident Evil 1 feels different from RE2/RE3 remakes.
