Like a zombie, Resident Evil 4 has risen again with shiny updated graphics, and motion-sensitive controls.
The beef I have with this game is: no zombies. These things called "Ganedo" are smart, and they wield chainsaws, and they also sport tentacles that come out when you blow their heads off. That's cool and all...but I want zombies! This is perhaps because I haven't had enough experience with the Resident Evil series (except for when I was a kid and played RE3...it scared the crap out of me). Another complaint I have, and it's not really a big one, is that this game just isn't scary enough. It's as if the creators of the game tried REALLY HARD to make this game scary, but it just didn't work. Silent Hill 3 scared the living bejesus out of me, and when playing in the dark by myself, I couldn't continue and I would save and turn the PS2 off. However, here, it's more creepy than anything else. It just doesn't do it for me, I'm sorry.
Resident Evil 4 for Wii is a feast for the eyes, the ears, and the arms! The graphics are updated slightly, and they look really sharp. The voice acting, as always, is excellent, and the new motion-sensitive controls give Resident Evil 4 fans a new way to experience the game. No longer do you have to push a button to do a knife attack. A knife attack is as simple as a swing of the Wiimote. Sometimes I get a little crazy with it and hit Ashley by accident. Music is good where it's placed, although it could be a little bit better, it helps to add to Resident Evil 4's creepy atmosphere. The voice acting in this game is top notch, and you really get into the personalities of the characters. So, if you are a Resident Evil 4 fan, migrating from PS2 to Wii, or GameCube to Wii, and the new motion-sensitive controls interest you, you might want to pick this one up. If you're not, now is the best time to get into this now 2-year old game, as this one is the best version yet.
