THE GOOD:Good- The story balances well, and the elements and plot are genious.
-Graphics are the best from last-gen.
-Collecting treasures to buy weapons and even health is such an improvement from past games.
- Weapons are some of the best, Minethrowers, Chiacago Typewriters, Semi auto rifles and the list
goes on and on..
-No more retarted controls! This game plays as comfortable as it can get.
-Aiming system is a blast, don't have to shoot without knowing what you're shooting at anymore.
-The varieties of enemies and monsters are my biggest charm of this game.
-It's extremely addicting, I've been playing it for 2 years now!
THE BAD:
Bad- No flaws could be found.. It plays too good for you to care about any flaws it might have. Not that it does.
SUMMARY:
I honestly thought that Resident Evil was an average series that was going to the trash . Until this beauty came out. The story goes like this- you're Raccoon City Police Department's Leon S. Kennedy in a secret mission to rescue the president's daughter in an European village infected by a plague called Las Plagas which makes your enemies maniacs but at the same time are smart and work as a team. The way Capcom combines classic RE characters and an all-new plot is amazing. I love the controls and gameplay, it's some of the things that make this game rule. The controls are comfortable and easy to grasp. The two dodge buttons are well disigned and quick to get to in surprising situations. Aiming systems's paradise, I could clearly see a red laser pointing at any enemy I want, or the rifle which zooms in and could get some rewarding head-shots. I always hated the lousy side view from the other Resident Evil's that felt extremely uncomfortable, this game gives us no reason to complain about off-screens or bad framerate. Camera angle in this game is made in order for us to get a wide-screen view. Part of the gameplay is the treasure collecting and peseta(money)earning , these babies are used to get new weapons or customized them. Treasures could be combined for greater value. We now get to actually buy First Aid Sprays now! The herbs are still spread out , there's a new herb called the yellow herb, combine this with a green herb and you'll boost you maximum health when you use it. Gotta love this all these new features....
There's three parts to this game and are seperated by setting. Each place has it's own types of enemies- Villagers, Zealots, and Soldiers. I like these guys, they're 100 times better than repetative and lame zombies attacks.As you move on to the different places, they are customized and carry heavier weapons. They start of with things like forks and rakes, and finish of with bows, or even Rocket Launchers. Special enemies carry chainsaws and ammunition. The bossest are some of the best I've seen. Not only are they huge and wild, they make you think outside the box making you use your skills and I adore that. All these varieties of enemies and bosses are a project only Capcom could complete. For real, this game has the best graphics form the last-gen games, visuals are amazing and face models are the best.
i cannot think of any possible cons that could ruin this glorious piece of art.
Overall, Resident Evil 4 is the meaning of the word legendary, to this day it is the greatest game I EVER played..
