I'm still playing this...
That line covers a lot of ground right of the bat. I still play this game on the wii while I also played it on the gamecube. I never completed it on the gamecube(god knows why) so I didn't mind picking it up for the Wii when it released for that particular system.
The fact is, remakes aren't usually "new" Most of the times they are the same or slightly better. But the thing is, RE4 for the Wii does feel a bit like a new game. The gamecube version was great but the Wii version controls add so much more depth and overal FUN, that it feels like you're playing a new game. Which it obviously isn't, since it's a few years old already.
The two most important things to talk about are graphics and controls. How did the graphics hold up a few years after the official gamecube release? And how are the new controls? Like I said briefly, the controls are awesome and add a lot more to an already existing game. They respond well and are just plain fun.
The graphics did suffer due the passing of time. An obvious fact of logic if you ask me, but still worth mentioning in this era of gaming where graphics DO matter. While they did suffer, that doesn't mean they are bad. They still look pretty good if you ask me, it's the overal atmosphere of the graphics that keeps the game good-looking.
This is still a solid title for any action/horror fan. If you played the cube version, I still recommend the Wii version. If you haven't played either of those two versions, buy the Wii version! It's the best overal.
Happy gaming,
