A fresh and frightening perspective on the survival horror genre. Capcom has outdone itself with this one...

the best game for the GameCube? That's tough to say, especially when multiplayer features are added into the equation, something Resident Evil 4 lacks but certainly does not suffer without. Either way, I'm not going to bother advocating caution and sugges

Assuming the role of Leon Kennedy (an old-school character of the series), it is up to you to travel to a remote Spanish town and rescue the U.S. President's daughter from the hands of a religious cult. The problem is, the cult followers (and local

Let me just say this, there have never been just zombies in a Resident Evil game. There has always been a variety of ugly creatures to exterminate and not much has changed in that respect in RE4. Okay, there are no zombies, but they have been replaced by

Resident Evil has reclaimed the throne from not only the survival horror genre but it's possibly even become ‘the’ quintessential Gamecube game in the process. Totally flawless on the Cube, this is one game you simply can’t miss out on.

The story is told through a number of cut-scenes, and Capcom have gone to huge lengths to make them all fit together into a cohesive story. The cut-scenes blend into the main game seamlessly as the compelling story of RE4 unwinds before your very eyes.

Leon S. Kennedy of Resident Evil 2 fame has joined the U.S. government after the whole meltdown of the Umbrella Corporation. His current mission is to rescue the president’s kidnapped daughter from some mysterious villagers in a remote location in

I have never before had a gaming experience like it, and may never again... Simply put, Resident Evil 4 owns our souls.

The hit zone-based targeting system, for example, makes anything else in the genre seem obsolete and primitive. It’s that sophisticated.

Offering 20 to 25 hours of splendid gameplay, RE4 is undeniably the greatest survival horror title on the market, and my new favorite game of all time.

Being objective is no easy task when reviewing a huge title like Resident Evil 4. A big part of you wants to gush out a string of random capitalized letters followed by a series of unintelligible punctuation marks. But there’s that little voice in the

This brings me to the new enemies, which is another big change in the series. Instead of the classic zombies that have been used in every game throughout the Resi series, we now have crazy villagers that are a lot more difficult and advanced to

What RE4 does is put the "survival" feel back into the survival horror genre. It's nice to see the originator back on the bloody cutting edge.

Resident Evil is credited for inventing the Survival Horror genre and for period of time, ruled it as the best of the best. But quickly, the series was challenged and began to lose its shine. To win back the Survival Horror genre and the fans, dramatic

Resident Evil popularized the survival/horror genre when it debuted on the Sony PlayStation in 1996. Despite its success, the preceeding installments of the series held fast to a formula that seemed increasingly out of place as time passed it by.

From a gameplay standpoint, Resident Evil 4 plays very much like a shooter, controlling similarly to the Resident Evil games of old.

The towns you venture into are beyond surreal, and might just keep you looking around at the wrong things at the wrong time. The game is also presented in widescreen format, so if dont own a TV capable of that youll be playing with black bars on the top

But the real mark of Resident Evil 4's untouchable superiority is wrapped up in that sigh of resignation from our developer friend. In truth, there's so many stunning aspects of this game that a tiny gesture like that says much more than pages of consider

An area that kind of let me down was the audio; it features support for Dolby Pro Logic II decoders but it doesn’t take full advantage of the hardware. Yes, there’s mulit-channel support and the sound does come at you from all sides, but it’s not

The best looking GameCube game ever released and features a story better than 99% of those on the market. Most importantly, though, it does all the little things that allow the game to focus on letting the player enjoy the ride.
