Although I have not played this particular game myself, I gave it to my brother who is an avid gamer as a Christmas gift. He said the game is great and is providing many hours of gaming enjoyment.

Best Gamecube Game EVER

I heard so much about this game I just had to buy it and let me tell you I'm not the least bit disappointed. Everything from the enemies to the locals are well thought out. I tought the atmosphere had the right amount of creepyness without being over the top. The gameplay is what had me hooked; the over the shoulder perspective made shooting bad guys a breeze and controls were so simple a caveman could play it. This game also had some of the ugliest creatures I've ever seen from El Gigante to U3, Salazer, and Sadler those guys reminded me of John Carpenter's "The Thing". This is one game I'll play for years to come, screw Super Smash Bros. this the best Gamecube game EVER.

Oh ok... wow. That is all I can say

Haven't beaten it... and haven't even gotten half way in the game but.. WOW. This game is engrossing. Is it perfect in every way? As far as games go... yes. Not to sound pansy here but you will definately get a rush of adrenline when you meet and greet the foes in this game. The pop of the heads getting blown off is just plain cool. In most games of this type you expect to just walkthrough blowing away everyone with no worries. Not here... you better pay attention and think or you will get an axe burried in your head. Awesome stuff.

This is probably the coolest game I've ever run across.

A Most Cohesive Experience

Resident Evil 4 shuns some of the frustrating mechanics of previous RE games in favor of pure adventure gameplay. The plot is decent and the enemies memorable, but the real draw of the game is its ability to draw you forward. Each section of the game is a setpiece, meaning that each level, populated with original enemies and memorable scripted events lingers in the memory long after you play it. Upgrading your weapons and equipment is addictive and finding strategies to conserve ammo is a must and quite enjoyable. The experience is loaded with minigames and bonus games. Probably my favorite single-player experience of all time.

Fantastic

I can't decide which I like best. This RE or the remade original for the GC. Oh well who cares. I'll just keep playing them both. Great Game. Makes owning a Nintendo worth it.

AWESOME!!

So I'm not much of a gamer. This review might be useless to the die hard gamers who obviously loved this game, but I think it might appeal to casual fans of gaming. I've played my fair share of video games, both sensationally senseless fun ones and more serious ones like this, so I think I'll be able to give this a fair rating.

THE GAME: Very easy gameplay. The control one has over shooting, slashing, and walking is very comfortable and realistic. The areas are expansive, which is good if you plan on playing multiple times. One will definitely develop more familiarity with each of the levels each time they replay, but I thought that the maps were a bit complex and confusing to totally get the first time. Again, that added to the realism but it also brought the fun factor down a bit when you're wandering aimlessly looking for the next place to go. Overall, the boss battles were fair. The majority of them were hard enough to challenge you, but not hard enough to get you cursing and giving up. Because if you can't beat 'em, but go to the dude with the blue torch and get a rocket launcher. Indeed, the blue torch guy is a merchant who sells guns, health, maps, and carrying space, and he comes in very handy. Those guys as well as save points are spread out fairly. While I felt the game could have been shorter--the initial outdoor area dragged on for entirely too long--it was a good and obviously well thought out experience.

STORY: It's a bit shabby. It's less about zombies and more about a crazy cult with many monsters and more ambition, which is of course more epic, but the general plot left a lot to be desired. The majority of the game is looking for Ashley, finding her, getting her taken away, looking for her again, finding her, etc. The various villains add a bit of spice, but it was a bit cheesy that there were so many Major Villains that were set up to be the Big Boss before the real Big Boss was revealed. Again, it just seemed like things could have been tightened to make the story better. Also, the dialogue? Sad fact, someone got paid to write that atrocious dialogue.

COMPARED TO OTHER "RESIDENT EVIL" GAMES: Much better. Less monotony, more variety. While I missed the more personal creepiness of walking through a scary house infected with zombies, this is definitely a better game.

COMPARED TO ALL VIDEO GAMES: Fair. Not as ground-breakingly great as some of the reviews I've read say, but definitely still a game worth your time.

7/10
