    Resident Evil 4 is one of the best games ever made.

    Resident Evil 4 appeared on the Gamecube in january of 2005 and then on the PS2 in the october of that year. In 2007 RE4 was available on the PC and Wii. The wii version includes everything found on the PS2 version and includes the Wii's unique controls.

    Resident Evil 4 takes place 6 years after the events of Resident Evil 2. Leon S. Kennedy is working for the government and is sent to europe to find the President's Daughter. He comes across crazy villagers who apparently want him dead. What seems to be a simple rescue mission, quickly turns into a fight for survival.

    The gameplay in Resident Evil 4 is amazing and is even better with the Wiimote. You press the B button to aim and the A button to shoot. Using the Knife has been made easier as well, now all you have to do is flick your wrist and leon will use his knife. During the game you will come across a Merchant who will sell you weapons, buy whatever you got, and upgrade your current weapons. Ammo cannot be bought, instead it needs to be found in the game. Ammo might be left by an enemy you have just killed, it might sitting there waiting for you to pick it up, or it may be in a box.

    The graphics are not a big step up from the GameCube and PS2 version. Though the graphics are good you will see some spots that do not looks as good as it should be. The frame rate however is top notch. It rarely goes down even when there are many explosions on the screen.

    Resident Evil 4 is a very creepy game. One moment you will be desperatly fighting off enemies as your ammo supply begins to run out, then the next moment you will be by yourself with no enemies but the tension is still there. Bosses and enemies can be terrifying as well. You will fight a chainsaw wielding maniac, a lake monster, and a creepy looking giant.

    Resident Evil 4 is a great game. Its fun, its creepy, and it plays well. Resident Evil 4 is an amazing game and is probably one of the best games ever made.

      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 f...

      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...
