In the world of gaming you will always have the greatest of impressions and worst of disappointments. It’s rare to ever find a series that will be enjoyed by its fans title-for-title without a single folly, and so it is this fact that I come into all of my reviews.
Resident Evil 4 is a game that I was in no hurry to obtain. I like the series, but it’s never the first I aim for, so it took me a little while to get it. However, when I got my Wii I needed games, and this was both cheap and popular, so I picked it up. To my delight, it was one game that the hype did not exaggerate.
Resident Evil is a game that is going to pull you in the moment you see the title screen. It is done with an outstanding presentation that perfectly suits the series and flows very well. There is very little, if any, over-use to anything, and just enough to work. The cutscenes, much like the one that begins the game, are beautiful and far beyond the capabilities of even the most advanced titles before. But that’s just the introduction, we have not started the game yet.
