I thought it (RE4) was about what I expected from all the RE's after the first. Very difficult to shoot, odd random camera angles, never enough ammo, can scare the piss out of you in one frame and be really fucking cheesy in the next.

I personally like it best out of all of them and it's still probably somewhere in the top 50 console games I've played

One is the PC OB and one is the console one.

Remember these sites just aggragate scores from other sites, so they are pretty reflective of the opinions of a wide body critics.

I did play RE4 (and Tekken 3). I was not terribly impressed with either.

One thing that always gets me with RE games is they just fuck up the controls badly. The lasers in RE4 were a nice touch. You know, so you could actually see what the hell you were shooting at. If it were a FPS game it would not really even be much of a challenge. This, to me, means the challenge is that the controls are shitty. That's not a good game, that's poor design.

And why the fuck can't you shoot the fucker with the guns and take 'em all? It's not like theres cops around to stop you.

lol I definitely agree that the controls have always been completely fucked...and that is probably why the game is so difficult, but they also do very well (generally) to only give you just enough ammo to survive.

And yeah shooting the guy with the gun should be allowed...fuck you can shoot birds and shit why not him?

And by there way, there's been quite a few people who have been experiencing freezing problems (in addition to the other bugs). My roommate's GTA4 for the PS3 froze and it pissed him off lol. I guess I was right when I said it was overrated.

We're talking about GTA4?

Resident Evil 4 is shit. The main character is a tool. The primary game mechanics are ridiculous (namely: over the shoulder gameplay, tag-along characters, slaughtering villagers, press the button or die!! sequences, fifty-foot decapitations, et. al.).

You'd have to be some kind of masochist nimrod to allow a game this flawed any sort of recognition, "shit lists" notwithstanding.

It's the same logic that makes girls pair up with the biggest asshole they can find and say "Oh he's not so bad." Resident Evil 4 is your douchebag boyfriend.

And Tekken has never been good. Not since the invention of the 10-hit combo.

It's not that bad...I mean in terms of what I expected to get out of it, I was perfectly happy with it. The over the shoulder gameplay, while it generally sucks, I feel adds a mechanic to playing b/c sometimes you end up in a room facing the completely wrong fucking direction while getting attacked by like 20 zombies / whatever. And while that can be annoying as fuck, it makes it fun sometimes b/c then I have to scramble to get it right and kill everything, as opposed to every other game ever when you just get in the groove and it’s game over.

Never have liked the tag-along characters, but alas they are around more and more these days. Heh maybe that’s why I hate TF2…med reminds me of that.

Press button or die…meh I could go either way…

Overall it’s about average in terms of the games I have played of late…generally though, TBH, I find myself liking console games less and less each time a new one comes out.

I thought RE4 was ok(never played any of the other games), the girl didn't get in my way at all, which was a surprise. I would have liked if they'd kept to the village setting. Halfway through the castle it got pretty cheesy.

Worst thing: MAKING ME GO TO THE INVENTORY SCREEN TO SWITCH WEAPONS >

Those button matching sequences seem to be everywhere now. If they are appropriate I don't mind. But if it's like, press triangle to dodge, why not just let me dodge?
