    Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

    I Have been playing Resident Evil 4 since the release year of 2005. It is in "My Top 10 Favorite Games of All Time" And well deserved!
    I originally bought it on the Gamecube and beat the game easily 10 times (Obtaining every Secret). When I bought My Wii and heard that they were Re-Releasing Resident Evil 4, I had to go and get it. When I popped the game in for the first time, I didn't expect what I got. That game that I came to love only got BETTER! With increased Graphics, All the exclusives from GC and PS2, And other Minor additions the game took a climb up on the ladder of Amazing Games.
    The Games Protagonist made his original Appearance in Resident Evil 2 along side Claire Redfield. Leon Scott Kennedy Returns with a vengeance (and a new voice actor). He is a Memorable character which also makes an appearance in his own movie (Resident Evil: Degeneration).
    The Games story takes place when the Presidents Daughter is kidnapped by an organization call "The Los Illuminados". From the opening of the game there is a quick cutscene catching you up on the history of the series and then you are thrown into the action, No more then 10 minutes after turning on the game.
    Come to find out that the small town you find yourself in is filled with people that are infected (not with the T-Virus). You make your way through the game Making new friends and reconnecting with old ones (Spoiler). As the Story continues to unfold, you find out that there are others involved in the affair that span far outside of the stories Plot. And You must play the game to find it all out! Believe me it is Worth it!
    The are an Awesome Amount of unlockables that can be obtained by playing through the game and beating the other side games that you unlock after beating the game the first time through.
    One of the best additions to the series is the ability to Sell and Buy Items (I.E. Guns and Health). You Can also Upgrade or "Tune Up" Your weapons to make them more powerful. And it Helps!
    The Music score for this game is one of the best in the Series! The music picks up pace when the Enemy is inbound. But there is also ambient sounds that make up for the silence. But the most scary is when there is no music or sounds at all.
    If you have a Wii or a GameCube, I Highly Suggest picking up this game to play! (I DO NOT Recommend the PS2 or PC versions due to the lack of certain features and graphics)
    It goes down as a Timeless classic in my Book and deserves all the Hype I give it!

      Resident Evil at its absolute best 0

       There's not much that can be said about this game that hasn't already been said in the GC/PS2 versions, but it's just simply put, THE best version of this game to date. And if you don't own RE4 for any other system already, then buy this. Even if u have beaten it. The entire premise of this version is for mainly the GC owners that got SHAFTED of the extra features that the PS2 version was given. Now the Nintendo fans get the extra features, which although not overwhelming, put a nice tou...

      Resident Evil 4 Review 0

      The Resident Evil series started in 1996 with Resident Evil on the PlayStation. It wasn't the first survival horror game, but its success gave the genre a huge boost in popularity. It was a truly revolutionary game for the genre. However, video game formulas, no matter how great, will become stale eventually. Some of the Resident Evil games to follow weren't necessarily bad, just forgettable. Capcom took care of this issue and took the series in a new direction. The result was Resident Evil 4. ...
