Excellent game. Gameplay, lighting and audio is tight and well organized. The puzzles are challenging and the action keeps you on your toes. This game is top shelf!

The game is all it was touted to be, and different than some of its predecessors. I still haven't finished it, but then I take my time to finish a game, as I don't want to run through it and then have to buy another.

GOOD GAME

Keeping this review short and sweet. I dont personally believe that this was the best resident evil due to the fact that the monsters werent so creative which took the whole UNDEAD fealing away from the game. IT MADE ME FEEL MORE LIKE I WAS PLAYING METAL GEAR SOLID or something and not a survial horror. COULD HAVE DONE BETTER>

scary, nervous feeling

this game will make your muscles spasm and get you uncomfortable from the stress of playing it.

so make sure you're not alone when you play it, or you will freak yourself out.

Wonderful!

Ok, so my review for the Wii version may have been a tad bit on the squeemish side. I went and purchased this game for my PS2, (as my friend had the Wii) and have LOVED it. I am on section 5-2 and have been enjoying it every step of the way. In fact, I haven't enjoyed a game this much since Halo, Half Life and Medal of Honor Allied Assault.
In this game you play the character Leon. He is a cop from racoon city sent to rescue the presidents daughter from a remote European location. This is when the plot takes a twist and he finds himself in a village of Spanish speaking villagers, obviously possesed by some greater evil. He later finds that they are the mutated result of a dangerous virus injected into them by an evil group called the Los Illuminados. Monks with attitude. Their evil plan: to turn Ashley inject Ashley with the virus and send her back to America... Causing serious problems. Basically, throughout the course of the game, you fight villagers with pitchforks, axes, and... yes... even chainsaws. This game will have you cracking up one instant and screaming in terror the next.

GRAPHICS 5-5
GAMEPLAY 5-5
SOUND/MUSIC 5-5
GAME LENGTH 5-5
REPLAY POTENTIAL 5-5

Definately one buy!
(For a teen player.)

well, nothing much is needed to say about this game except that it is amazing beyond belief. when i first got my ps2 it came with the RE4 game. i didnt think much at first... as a matter of fact, i didnt start playing it till months after having my ps2.. i didnt think it was going to be that fun but it's actually pretty addicting..... if you thought those game boy pokemon games were addicting when you were a kid just wait till you play this...

i love it

US version of RE4 is quite excessive.
It's really greater than japanese one.
Now get an extreme excitement & ecstacy!!

So much fun

I don't have much to say that people haven't said already. So...I'll just say that this game is really, really fun! Even if you're not typically a fan of the horror game genre.

Best Resident Evil Yet

This review pertains to the PS2 version.

I was kind of skeptical when I played this game because it was so different from the typical RE. But in this case, change is for the better. This game has everything that any Resident Evil or action/adventure fan could want: lots of violence, long involving gameplay, and extreme replay value.

Graphically, this is some of the best work the aging PS2 can do. The atmosphere is dark and disturbing while character animation and detail is accurate and life-like. Explosions and enemy reactions to damage done are a solid treat to the eyes. And the gore can't get any redder.

Resident Evil has a reputation for containing cheesy voice acting and while there are few scenes that were sort of awkward, the voice acting is very well done and all voices sound like they naturally belong to each character. I like how enemies shout out at their comrades indicating that you're in their presence and they're about to kill you. The music sets the tense and uneasy mood as always.

This game controls similiar to the previous games in the series. Novices and veterans will be able to pick up and play right away. Those who are new to Resident Evil will need to adjust to the game's style of play but I can't imagine it would take long because the controls are very solid. The level of balance is about perfect. There are points in the game that are frustrating and you'll find yourself dying quite a bit. But if you keep trying, you'll eventually get past them.

The replay value is excellent. Not only do you get a boatload of extras when you beat the game, you'll want to play the game through over and over again because it's just a lengthly but very fast moving game. It's just that much fun.

The storyline tends to deviate from the storyline in past REs. But nevertheless, several references are made to the previous games and this installment serves as an interesting continuation of the series. The story is compelling and keeps you wanting to know what happens next. I recommend this game to any PS2 or GC owner.

This game will be hard for RE5 for PS3 to top. But with the right time and resources invested, it should hopefully be a winner.
