Slightly bad:
Leon takes up a lot of the screen
This game is teh roxor. I've been walking through an off track pathway shooting out angry french people's kneecaps so they go down quicker. No more sissy auto aim. Then as they collapse to their knees I run up and round house kick them across the face.
Then I arrived at the village, got mobbed by villagers with pitchforks and scythes. My clip ran out and there was no time to reload (you can't do that inventory reload 'cheat' now either) so I ran across the village and headed into a house and barricaded the door. Cue loony paper bag man appearing and waving a chainsaw around, other villagers bring ladders and set them up to the upstairs window.
I ponce around looking for items and chainsaw man cuts through my wooden barricade, narrowly avoiding him I run up stairs and grab a shotgun off the wall. Seeing villagers climbing the ladder and starting to get in the room I realised I'm trapped, so I run into a corner between the bed where they can't get behind me and pull out the shotgun.
Unfortunatly I was a bit too slow and chainsaw man promptly decapitates me, blood gushes everywhere and 'You Are Dead' appears on the screen.
You want this game.
Also of note, walking into a shack to find a woman pinned a few feet off the ground by means of a pitchfork through the face, "No sex discrimination here" says Leon..
Im just about at Salazar on my first run through. You no when you have to kill the knights...
I was wonderfully surprised at how big the game is - all it fantastic.
Still haven't finished, in fact.
Slowly, slowly.
I've neglected my poor GC in favour of my PS2 for the last year or so as the games have generally been better. Resident Evil 4 has reminded me exactly why I bought a GC in the first place.
I'm on the cable car section, hopefully there is a hell of a lot of the game left.
Got exams comming up soon though so I'm guessing I'll not be finishing this anytime soon.
Can see this being a very enjoyable game. Glad I didn't sell my cube those many moons ago.

argh i always get killed by the baghead witht eh double chainsaw in the last second or two in the level which is based on the island i think-lots of rooftops.
And hes freaking hard to kill.
Scared the crap out of me, like the regenerator leg thing.

Sort of Terminator2-esque :P
