Has anyone else checked this game out? It's awesome! It's very different from the old Resident Evil games but still has the things you enjoyed from the previous titles. I really enjoyed the remakes they did for Gamecube, they had awesome graphics and I always liked the series but this one takes the cake. This game has been the only good thing about being sick and staying home alone the past two days. I'm hoping to finish it up before I have to go back to work.

It will definitely be the next game I purchase.

I enjoyed the first 2 resident evils for PS2. I always found the actual gameplay a little awkward, though. Is it still like that?

And I would never have finished either of them without the strategy guides.

No the gameplay is a little different this time. It's still in the third person, but it's a little closer to a first person perspective than the others were. The aiming and movements are a lot more intuitive than previously though. Also, there is more emphasis on gunning things down rather than running and ammo conservation. It's really addictive.

Yeah the game is a blast, I need to pick it up again now that I have kicked my World of Warcraft habit. It is the first game I can recall really scaring me since the old Doom games. It is actually quite stressful and pretty difficult to, but blasting zombies heads off never gets old. Don't get me wrong, it isn't Ninja Gaiden for XBOX hard, but you will do quite a bit of saving and reloading. I never really enjoyed the clunky controls of the old Resident Evil games, but this has a completly different feel and is very intuitive.

My birthday is about a month from now (April 11th), so I'm hoping to get it as a present. The only problem is that it's likely to get in the way of other games I'm on a hiatus from at the moment - Silent Hill 3, Eternal Darkness and Metroid Prime, along with others. But if it's half as good as I expect it to be, it bloody well deserves it.

Besides Metroid and San Andreas it's the best game made for the current consoles.

It's a great game. I beat it a couple weeks ago and now I'm working on another awesome title from Capcom, Devil May Cry 3. RE4 plays a lot different from the older games, and it worked out great. I'd say it's the best one in the series by quite a bit.

This is the best console game since Ocarina of Time.

I played through twice; I bought the Chicago Typewriter and I'm currently going through it a third time.

how long did it take you to save up the money to buy that, i'm considering playing through it again and i was just wondering

I think it was about halfway through the second time.

But remember, you have to beat Assignment Ada for this gun to be available.

It is worth selling all your guns and ammo, with the exception of the rifle, to purchase it. Almost all the enemies die with one or two shots.

Master Chief might disagree with that.

Are there giant spiders in this one

I usually don't get into games that Violent.

what really matters is if the game is good or bad, not if is violent or "for kids"

I've never been a big fan of Halo. I don't know why.

Halo really fucking sucks. One day people will wake up and realize it.
