OMG etc
jisms:
everything
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..

Bump, just so i can find this thread when i get my copy :P
"HHMM.. So you like playing Super Smash Bros. Melee do you?"
:D Classic.
:D Classic.
I liked when he read your mind and told you what games you'd been playing recently. Obviously just read it from the memory card but it was still pretty cool.

That sorta thing. Nice touches but hardly made it a good game.

I don't like the storyline, the gameplay... or basically anything about it.
Some of the puzzles where you have to look at the back of the box and so forth are rather clever.

I loved Metal Gear, you just have to take it for what it is. It's like a really interactive film, yeah, but it's still great to 'watch' and a quite gripping storyline, except for the end bits which are just like what?!?

I really wish I had it
Completed it now, 21 hours 48 minutes and 46 seconds.
Amazing game, can't recommend it highly enough. Even if you've hated all previous RE games I still demand that you get this one.
Two new games have appeared now, The Mercenaries and Assignment X, so I'll have to try those.
It's hard to imagine anything other than Zelda (or perhaps 'revolutionary' Mario) topping RE4 this year. If the new Mario is as different to previous Mario games as RE4 is to previous RE games, the gaming world will be an extremely happy one (as long as it's good differences). Unlike previous RE games I will definatly go back and play it through on a harder setting.
Where X = small spoiler, though not really cause it's given away in the demo video if you leave it on the title screen.

5-1 :)
I just can't stop playing it.
It's getting pretty hard now, ammo is really running scarce.
