Oh, but you might be thinking "Well my eyes and hands are pleased, but what about my ears?" Well, you don’t need to keep that concern another moment. RE4 features a remarkably subtle, yet very finely tuned soundtrack that really escalates the intensity of the atmosphere, as well as the action. The voice overs are incredibly accurate and clear, never leaving you to wonder what the characters are talking about or actually saying (with the exception of the ones who do not speak English... you’ll meet plenty of them), and the sound effects are both clear as a bell and remarkably realistic.

The game is also a very extensive game, and only runs short due to playing it so passionately that you’ll feel like it just started when the credits begin. By no means is this game short, but it does certainly express the relevance of "Time flies when having fun." But you should not worry, because even beyond the extent of the primary storyline, there is plenty to keep you playing. Not only do you get to experience the entire game all over again from another familiar character’s entirely different perspective, but you get to take that same character on a quest of her very own, as well as take a total of five different characters on an endlessly enjoyable and challenging mini-game. Even the main storyline has plenty to offer a second, and even third time, with an arsenal of newly earned costumes, weaponry, pathways, and just the general experience of a very addictive game.

To put it frankly, the makers of this title knew exactly what they were doing, and every bit of the game will keep you around for more. The only really harsh problem with it is... even after you’ve completed everything more than once, you’ll just keep wishing it would go on forever.
