Reisdent Evil 4 Review by Shawn McEntee
Hi everyone it’s me Shawn back from my little hiatious from blogging, but I’m back so I’m here to review Resident Evil 4 on the Gamecube. I am writing this review because my friend Casey had me read his and it made me say wtf?! I told him and got on his case about it so he said I should write one to counter his.
So I will get on to the Review. The game takes place six years after the incident in racoon city, Umbrella Corp is gone and you take the Role of Leon Kennedy a US Agent. You are sent on a Rescue mission to save the Presidents daughter Ashley. You are in some town in Europe. The first thing you will notice about this game is it is freaking gorgeous from cineamatics, to gameplay. The diolauge is great and The aiming is finally perfect, with it’s easy controlls.
Now there are no zombies but it shouldn’t affect you it still has that great RE formula that Capcom knows best. I love that Capcom finally got a perfect RE game and what makes it great well you have an array of weapons you can buy. From the Mercent a man who will always say “What are you buyin?” What are you selling?” “AWWW yes I’ll buy that at a great price!” Shotguns, Tmp, Rocket Launcher, Broken Butterfly which is a very powerful revolver. Not too mention you can upgrade your weapons which you’ll have to as you make more progress in the game.
The game is only game I can think of where you can get killed in a cut scene, which at first was a big holy shit moment for me. I mean wtf?! I just got killed! So you always have to keep your controller close and have quick hands. The game has a good array of characters aside from Ashley and Leon you have Ada and Luis who helps you every now and then in the game. Also you’ll have random bump in’s with Ada. The scheme once you find Ashley is simple don’t let the villagers get her or harm her while you shoot people trying to chainsaw your head off.
The game is full of holy shit moments and is the single best reason to own a gamecube. Also seeing how it’s a Capcom game you know your gonna get unlockables and their are alot. Like Assigment Ada where you play as Ada and get to see what she did while you were saving Ashley and putting a stop to the evil in the village. Also the mercenaries is an arcade style mini game all about surviving and racking up as high a score before w/o dying. This game is amazing the fact that the Wii is gonna get it’s own version of it is awesome! If this game was a launch title for the Cube when it first was launched it would have stood a chance at the PS2 and Xbox. Still if you havn’t checked it out and don’t have a Cube it’s on PS2, but if you have a Wii wait for that.
Now to point out some things about Caseys Review which you can see at http://rammfan518.wordpress.com/tag/video-games/ along with his other reviews.
. Casey is not a gamer he says this on every game review the man writes nuff said
. Casey got annoyed at the Ashley system which gives you simple task of stay, follow me and hide. It’s not too hard casey plus the game is so great you should look that aside.
. Casey wants zombies in it. Well casey guess what you don’t get them it was a nice change besides I’m sure RE5 will have them.
.Casey couldn’t beat the game lol!! Now this game will take you an average 20 hours to beat but it has great replay vaule. Just as Casey says he sucks at games and it’s true.
Well I hope you enjoyed my review well until the coo coo ca choo shawn out!!
