Next Level Gaming
I have never had so much fun getting into a game as I have had with Resident Evil 4. Everything is just perfect about this game. The storyline, the graphics, the sound, the fear the game gives you. It is a A+ effort from Capcom.

Is it the best game ever? One of them, yes. Is it really that good? Yes, be prepared to soil yourself in distinctly un-adult ways – it’s that good.

The hype surrounding Resident Evil 4 has been quite strange. While it's always been there with little pieces of info being released here and there and always looking impressive each time, it has never been on the scale of what other games like Halo 2 have

Please bear with me because this is a special moment, a minor milestone if you will, the first time I have ever approached a review with the solid and unwavering intention of awarding it that hallowed 10.

Had RE4 performed a little better in the scare department, and lost a few really annoying and frustrating moments, we would be talking about the best survival horror game around.

The Video Game Critic
No game is perfect, but Resident Evil 4 (RE4) comes about as close as you can get. I'm starting to think this could be the best video game I've ever played. A masterpiece of great length and substance, RE4 is such a huge leap forward for the series that

Capcom managed to skim off every last bit of foam that made previous Resident Evils so hard to swallow, leaving nothing but nerve-shattering, terrifying perfection.

Best game on the GameCube? Definitely. In fact, if there was ever a game that required the purchase of its native console just to play it, then this is it.

If Resident Evil brought survival horror to the masses, then this outing redefines it. It evolves the genre to such a degree that going back isn’t even an option. And man does it get creepy. Very little grandiose scores, just Leon and all the weapons

Until a few days ago, I would have described myself as anti-Resident Evil. I rented the first game in the series for PlayStation back when it was fairly new, played through most of it, and didn’t see what the fuss was about. Then I heard that the

Ok, you got me. Top notch in every department, actually. The perfect score really says it all. But let me expound. Resident Evil 4 is a very different game than all of its predecessors. I, for one, am not a big fan of change, when I like what’s been done
