Description

Ushering in a new phase in the Resident Evil franchise, this game focuses on the events following the dissolution of Umbrella Corporation. The pioneering over-the-shoulder camera perspective is a departure from the fixed-camera views found in earlier entries, allowing for unrivaled action gameplay which has been met with widespread critical acclaim.

In the wake of the completely unprecedented biological disaster of Raccoon City, the corporation exposed as the initiator of those atrocities, Umbrella, has been dissolved. Leon S. Kennedy, a survivor of the incident, has gone on to become a special agent in the direct employ of the president of the United States. The president's daughter has been kidnapped, and Leon has followed eyewitness reports to a cold village in Europe. In that village, a new intrigue awaits...

Resident Evil 4 (2005) was truly ahead of its time. The atmosphere, intense gameplay, and pacing make it a memorable experience. It’s a nostalgic gem that continues to shine, especially for those who played it back in the day.

Despite prefering the originals RE 1+2+3, RE4 is just popcorn fun.

Resident Evil 4 blew me away with its intense and immersive experience. From the moment Leon Kennedy steps into the eerie Spanish village, the game grips you with its relentless action and chilling atmosphere. The switch to the over-the-shoulder camera angle was a game-changer, making combat feel more immediate and dynamic. I found myself constantly on edge, thanks to the intelligent and aggressive enemies. The variety in locations, from creepy villages to dark castles, kept the experience fresh. The storyline, combined with tight controls and memorable moments, made Resident Evil 4 not just a game but an unforgettable adventure. It’s a classic that continues to set the standard for survival horror.

This game was so big when it was first released it was on 2 discs. The opening chapter is brilliant, possibly the best I've experienced in gaming. The atmosphere is brilliant combined with the tension building music still holds up 20 years later. The real gem of this game is leveling up with the weapons and the Merchant just absolutely steals the show... "Stranger Stranger now that's a weapon"
  • Characters are great
  • Upgrading weapons
  • Gotta be quick on the reactions

I've finished the game for quite a while and i have to say that re4 is the best re game to exist. It's completely different of what the previous games were, you fight parasite infested villagers instead of zombies like in the previous games and the plot is wonderful. The other 2 extra campaigns as Ada are also really good as you get to see how the story goes on from a different aspect. I'm really excited for the remake!

For those of you who have never played Resident Evil 4, it’s a no-brainer. Resident Evil 4 defined much of what we see in third-person gaming today, and for that reason alone is worth a play. But if you don’t care about the history of video games that much, RE4 is still an absurdly fun game to play. It’s funny, often scary, and every single fight is tense, constantly leaving you on the edge of your seat.
  • -beginner friendly
  • -best third person game
  • -good price

Great memories <3 Thanks to the HD edition I'm not disappointed with the graphics, as they kinda got old. The controls are as questionnables as they were but it's part of the game ! Overall still the best RE to me

I usually don't like horror games, but RE4 is an exception. It is a perfect mix of horror and action. The gameplay is fun (albeit a bit outdated) and the story is top notch as well as the atmosphere.

I did not enjoy the experience. Might be only me but the way the game handicaps their players are irretating. I know that it is regarded as one of the best games in the series but i just dont like it.

It feels so good to be back in the old times where you didnt need any dlcs to get more than 10 hours of gameplay. Speaking of gameplay: the gameplay of this masterpiece is a one in a lifetime experience.... It combines good characters (like Leon or Ada, we dont talk about Ashley) with good and fun gameplay. You can also replay the game many times to use and get collectibles and extras that you get for playing.
I had an amazing 40+ hours of playing with this game and i can just recommend it!
  • good gameplay
  • excellent story
  • Ada
  • free extras after completing the story(would be dlcs by now)
  • Dogs
  • old controls( but easy to learn and fun to use)

El HD se nota poco la verdad, pero le pongo esta nota porque el juego en si es una obra de arte, como todos los RE anteriores. Buena historia, buena variedad de enemigos y jugabilidad pasable (en su época era de lo mejor pero ahora nos parece un poco tosca).
  • Mantiene la esencia del juego original de PS2/Gamecube
  • Curva de dificultad bastante lograda, tienes que saber donde apuntar para hacer daño
  • El HD se nota poco (por poner alguna objeción)

This game is definitely one of the best in the franchise, upon changing its style from fly on the wall to over the shoulder, created a new element of horror with one of our beloved characters.

Leon takes on a new role once leaving Raccoon City to help the president secure his daughters survival. We also fight news enemies within the Las Plagas
  • Long Story
  • HD Remake
  • Replayable
  • Horror
  • Puzzles are quite simplistic

I played the game on PS2 back then, it was nice until my sister stole all of my PS2-related stuff last year :( So i bought it, i think it'll be just as good as the PS2 version. I hope I get the feelings in this version as in the PS2 version.
  • nice graphics
  • bit scary but i like
  • nice
  • the aiming was bad on the pc, now its fixed
  • bring back minigames
