Description:Resident Evil 4 marks a terrifying new chapter in the world renowned Resident Evil series- exclusively for the Nintendo GameCube™. Players rejoin Leon S. Kennedy, six years after his first mission as a rookie cop from Resident Evil 2.
This is just a great game. It is one of the best games I have played in a long time. While the only other Resident Evil game I've played is Zero, I have to say the controls in this one feel much better. Controlwise, the only real difference is in allowing you to aim, but actually being able to see where you're going makes the character feel a lot less like a tank. In fact, the controls feel really good now.
I think the game does a fairly good job of keeping up the eerie feeling, despite no longer being able to rely on bad camera angles hiding the monsters. The more open areas of the game are crowded with structures, any of which might be hiding an enemy. I think it feels more real to be ambushed in a real seeming environment, than to walk directly into a zombie because the camera wouldn't let you look in front of you. The boss fights are pretty good. Many of the normal fights happen in very close quarters, giving the player a nearly constant feeling of being nearly overwhelmed, without actually making it impossible. I guess I'm just trying to say that the game does a very good job of puling the player into it.
What else can I say?
