And I thought Leon was already tired of zombies! Best Capcom game ever!
The premise is simple - save the president's daughter and survive the hordes and hordes of pissed off villagers.The moment you gain control of Leon,it's goodbye reckless aiming - you have to be careful and accurate in every shot.How far you get in the game will depend on precise aiming and panicking with the square button(you'll figure out this by yourself) to escape the many frantic situations you'll find yourself in.Think 8 to 10 villagers running,changing directions,and lunging at you with anything from knives,pitchforks, to chainsaws.
The GC one-ups the PS2 in the graphics department.This,however doesn't change the fact that RE4 is still one of the most beautifully made and visually rewarding games on the PS2.Capcom even made the PS2 version of RE4 even more special by including extra chapters,with you controlling Ada.
RE4's goal is to jolt you at every possible moment (and when you least expect it).Save for the sight of the typewriter or the wandering merchant,you will never feel 100% safe at any point.Similar to the button combo system that made games like God Of War popular,you will be required to push certain button combinations in order to survive.Getting a little rest during some of the cutscenes?There ain't no such thing.
RE4 has one of the most enriching experiences any gamer could possibly go through.During the course of the game's nine-year history,no other installment has captured the sense of fear the original Resi was able to accomplish.This title should be on any PS2 owner's shelf to be played over,and over,again.
