In a nutshell:
Welcome back to the world of survival horror… as you’ve never seen it before. Probably the most ambitious revamp of a series ever seen this neither looks nor plays like any Resident Evil game before it. Gone are in dodgy camera angles of yore and in comes all action third person adventure action with stunning graphics and set pieces.

The lowdown: Charged with rescuing the president’s daughter from a mysterious Spanish cult, you control Leon S. Kennedy from Resident Evil 2. Although series regulars like the green health herbs and rubbish dialogue are present almost everything else has changed: there's a completely new 3D environment, few puzzles, no magic chests and not a single repeated monster from the old games. Instead you face a series of supremely cinematic set pieces and boss battles, including an escape from a village filled with Texas Chainsaw Massacre extras. As the Black Eyed Peas once remarked, "pick up your range of deeply unpleasant biological weapons and let's get retarded." Most exciting moment: The frantic siege from the villagers in the abandoned cottage has got Evil Dead beat easy. Since you ask: Resident Evil 4 won four awards at this year’s Golden Joysticks event, including Editor’s Game of the Year. The bottom line: The best game of the year and one of the best action games of all time. Harrison Dent

Leon's girlfriend was not impressed with her Christmas bondage gear Is it just us, or is there the face of an old man (God?!) hidden in the rocks? Survival horror faux pas no.256: wearing leather in a hardcore vegan community. Would look cooler if he held the gun at a 90 degree angle, like Ice Cube in Friday

resident evil 4 limited edition (2008-01-02)

Dont really play reisdent evil games but this was brilliant!A great game loved playing it

brilliant game not so brilliant package (2007-05-07)

If you've not played resident evil 4 (where have you been?) Its one of he greatest games to ever be made but unfortunately this limited edition leaves a lot to be desired (hence the 4 stars) instead of being in a regular box you get a metal tin version with different cover art & an 8-page sampler of the walkthrough guide & that's your lot no making of disc, no art book, no extra parts to the main game as a lot of the ltd edition games releases tend to a poor effort by Capcom I'm afraid, save you money & get the regular version instead

Masterful (2007-03-20)

This is truly a masterpiece of a game, a real gem. With the inclusion of old friends from RE2 and similar items to get RE4 stays true to the series we all know and love.With added 'Action' buttons and kicks and neck-breaking there is a breath of new life to an age old classic. With visually stunning environs and superlative gameplay this RE4 is itself an untold classic. Many RE fans had doubts, myself included, about the modernisation of a cult classic. We thought 'would it work' and by heaven and hell it really did. There is the same old playbility with various unlockables that we are by now familiar with. There are also ones we are unfamiliar with and they are a welcome surprise too.The merchant system again had question marks over it and yet again it fails to disappoint. With the exclusion of zombies we question its atmospheric, eerie quality, synonymous with former titles. Dont, its all achieved here as well.There is undoubtedly more freedom and the new targetting system enhances RE 4 yet further.The Mercenaries is a great side edition and a worthy challenge for any gamer.Though i have given RE4 a glittering review there are other things that perhaps may have been improved, but they are only little things as the game is just exquisitely produced.Though the environs are massive i feel that maybe elements of the GTA series may enhance this further as there are some places that are sealed off in the game.Unlockables are good but an even better unlockable would perhaps be that some of the characters unlocked in the mercenaries game should have there own exhaustive adventure.Overall an excellent game full of atmosphere, gameplay and pure class. Bring on Leons next adventure!!!

Back to its best (2006-11-02)

Resident Evil was a series drawing to a possible close with the average outbreak series out, But they made a return .. and what a return with a simply brilliant action game. You play Leon - The president hired help as you will, he must rescue el presidente' daughter in a country that does not fly far places such as Bosnia, Croatia etcm but while there you encounter someone trying to create a world of zombies ... Is this the T virus back in action???You'll drool over the graphics - they are simply stunning - moody .mean and the the attention to detail on the AI.The sound again is top notch - atmospheric and edgy at times. The gameplay... The A.I in this game cannot not be complimented enough not as good as HALO but not far off. They chase you/ hide, shout for reinforcements etc .. its brilliant. try playing it in the dark, you'll get a,crazed shout from behind you, knowing there'll be trouble asap.Unlike most Resident evils before it, this time you can rank up and expand the weaponary.. like a RPG but only with zombies!!. The varied differences between levels of gun is good - And will keep you in the shooting galleries for ages. This minigame it's self is a play on the average surviour series is better than both 1-2 put together. I must admit i had both copies GameCube + PS2 and for picture quality go for the GC- but this Ps2 edition does have extra content. About 25-30 to complete - but this does open new difficulties and content.A welcome return to Resident Evil.. and I cant wait for number 5.

hooked (2006-11-02)

i have been playing this game since March and cant get enough of it...nothing seems to compare anymore it is that good. If you play this game over and over again you are bound to come up with some new shockers..like yeah if you shoot the merchant for fun he dies and does not come back to sell you any goodies so ur asss is pretty much kicked and yes while some of you may be using a knife to tear open some boxes you can end up killing the girl if she is standing right near you yes i learnt these things the hard way...so for any of u people who have still not played the game shud be ashamed of yourself take that money and go and buy ;}
