A great remake with awesome new motion controls.
The best feature this game has that no other version has is the specific Wii controls. In this game, the nunchuck and the Wii remote provide a whole new experience of playing this game. One way it does this is by utilizing the motion controls. Using your knife in this game is easy, all you have to do is wave your Wii remote. Other parts of the game use the motion controls as well, such as scenes that will make you wave the remote to dodge an attack. This game also uses the Wii remote's pointer function to use your gun. Using the gun is simple, all you have to do is hold B and point on the screen to aim, and then simply press A to shoot.
This game also has some cool content in it, although its nothing new. After you beat the main game you can unlock some really cool different games, weapons, and new clothing for the main characters. This content is great and it makes the game have better replay value, but its the exact same things as the PS2 version. It would have been great if Capcom made some more content just for the Wii.
The gameplay is a little different than other Resident Evil games. Resident Evil 4 focuses more on action and has a faster pace than problem solving like the other Resident Evils. Also in this game you are not fighting actual zombies, which means the enemies are a little smarter, and they actually use weapons like pitchforks, axes, and knifes. Some of the really tough enemies have better weapons like chainsaws and machine guns. Many fans of the older Resident Evil do not like the change in gameplay however I thought it was a great new direction for the series.
The graphics are still great despite it being a port from a last generation system. Everything in the game is detailed and really great looking. The graphics do a great job in making a scary atmosphere for this game. The sounds are pretty good also. When music does play, it usually helps create the creepy atmosphere. The voice acting is also decent.
Overall, for the price you can get this game now I would say it is definitely worth it. The game is fun, can be challenging at times, and will last you awhile especially if you play all the extra content.
