rofl you fail hardcore. try playing both versions of a game before claiming the port is a POS.

that goes to show you how hardcore RE4 fails..

EDIT: To save on arguements I'll just reply "Whatever".

Geez--I have to make a comment here! I have been playing vid games since the 80s and I personally think that RE4 was one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I have ever had--on any platform. I felt like I was a hero in a movie--right up to the very movie-like end. I would also suggest getting back into it and giving yourself some time to adjust to how the game plays. Hope you ultimately will agree that it was worth your time. Good luck

There is little lost with the lack of strafing and shooting only when you are still. You don't have eleventy billion rounds of ammo to strafe and shoot like a mofo. Ammo conservation is a top priority in RE games, which makes it challenging and a bit frustrating at times. When you finish the game though it's very satisfying though .

btw, the extras stuff is awesome. Mercenaries is a blast, so is assignment ada. I'm working through seperate ways right now.

what arguement was there to happen? RE4 ruined the series by turning it into a shooter instead of a puzzle/survival horror.

I was disappointed with RE4 too.

I was expecting more from the controls considering the high review scores and everyone raving about it but to me it feels just like a straight port with the Wiimote tacked on.

It seems like its a crime on here to not like this game but id have to say its the least favourite of the ones i own at the moment.

I found the controls to be very intuitive and realitivly easy to master.

To be fair, Resident Evil 4 was a departure from the series in more ways than one (Where the heck are the zombies?!).

Although, it's still a Resident Evil, and a good one at that.

Hopefully, Umbrella Chronicles will show how RE4 is connected to the main series.

Besides, RE5 is meant to have the same basic form, are you saying that RE5 is also partly what "ruined" the series?

Resident Evil 4 reinvigorated teh series. Let's face it, the RE format was getting old. It worked in '96 and '98, but was getting old by the time REmake came out. Another game in that style wouldn't have done well. RE4 got a lot of praise for bringing new life to the series as well as being a great game.

Guys settle down I think he's right.

well thats about 2 on my side and the rest against me. lol.

whatever some people just arent good at video games if u cant beat RE4 then maybe you should go play your coleco vision

who ever made this is on crack, that game is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hell i never even played the original for the purple lunchbox.. And i still loved it-.. There was maby one thing that bugged me- But that was about it-.. I still think its a good game :3

lol loved how you used the gamecube as a purple lunchbox just for that +Rep lol and Re4 was an A+ game for the Wii

RE:4 Wii Edition is a great game for the Nintendo Wii....it sold more than Capcom had predicted it would sell...

Which means, it did a spectacular job!!

re5..meh..im looking forward to it but the series is already down the drain so ill take it for what its worth (fun gameplay)

also @ icedearth. it was not outdated, the view, the way you move, sure you could say thats outdated, but the formula wasnt. they completely got rid of the conserving ammo and intense puzzles part of the game for gunplay.
edit: ive never played silent hill but hear its awesome and plan on buying some of them to see what i think of it, since silent hill...5 i think it is..is coming out on the 360 and from what i understand is still survival horror. RE4 couldve done something like silent hill as a suggestion.
