yeah I missed out on the GC version and was thinking of picking it up pre-owned before I heard that they were bringing it to the wii with all the extras of the PS2 version I decided to wait instead :P I think the price in UK is gonna be £30 so it might be like £5-£10 cheaper than most Wii games

If you don't play this game you are really missing out. I have only played the PS2 version (which is apparently the second worst of the 4 ports, PC being the worst) and still loved it. I can't imagine how much better the experience would be if your first play through is on the Wii.

Tell your parents that you need this game incase their is an outbreak of Las Plagas and you wish to learn how to defend yourself by practicing with the Wiimote.

It's violent, yes, there are shredded corpses some places, and such, but it's not like GTA, you don't beat old women with a bat, or something. If they're okay with you watching zombies movies, you should be okay (no Zombies in that one, but close).

I just got it the other day (all they had was the PS2 version, though) and it's one of the best games I've played in a while.

It was the best game when i first went through it.  The storyline was interesting, the gameplay was amazing and heart beatingly intense at times, and the gore was good for it's time.  After you beat it you can keep your upgrades and weapons and money, and keep workign for all the secret unlocks.  It's even fun enough to go through a secodn anr third time consecutivley, without going to a different game after.  Get it for sure, but possibly wait for the WII version to come out instead of getting the GC version where you have to use an analoge stick instead of remote pointer.

You can also wait until the Wii version comes out on june 19th, I think it's gonna be very cool to play witht he Wii remote.

GET IT!!!!! Well, wait for the Wii version. It was one of the best games on the GC next to SSBM and Metroid Prime.  This is a must have. The story is great, the game play is ridiculously addicting and the game was between 15-20 hours on the first run. Dont worry though, the game has tons of replay value, not to mention all of the extras on the wii version. On the wii is $30 though. It will be worth it. I'm planning to get it on the wii and I already have the GC version. If you were worried about violence, well, its not pointless violence like GTA, but it is extremely gory. you can blow off Gandos heads and take on the El Gigante which has a giant parasite coming out of his back. I would definitly get this game if you were thinking about a new game to get.

Yes it's $30, I have it on preorder from Gamestop. I tried the GC version and honestly the aiming the gun controls made the game too annoying for me to get past the village (I'm not much of a modern shooter person, I just like the GTA style of autolock and shoot, gets things done easier and let's me move on to what I have to do), so when I heard about the new gun aiming controls with the Wii that made things more like controlling a gun I knew I was going to get this asap.

Yes, I would reccomend it as its a fun and joyful game. Read some reviews, maybe rent it to see what it's like and decide then. Basically in my eyes it's a great game.

You should absolutely without a doubt get this game. It's the best game of all-time. It uses the intense atmosphere to make the game exciting as fun as well as scary. It's a gaming masterpiece in every way.

It is violent, no question, but it's not like Manhunt 2. The violence is a part of the game rather than the point of the game. Although it's more graphic I don't even think it's nearly as bad as GTA because you aren't mass murdering innocent people casually (not that I don't plan GTA). You're shooting brain-washed people that are trying to kill you.

Mine would be MGS:TTS...

On topic:

RE4 is the ultimate... Wii game. Though I pretty sure LoZ:TP is better than RE4 but still it's totally awesome. Now Wii's got 2 of the greatest next gen games followed by PS3's Motorstorm. Really if u haven't bough it already, u really should.
