Forum Overview :: Resident Evil 4

It's awesome. I'm glad I gave the Resident Evil genre a severe tongue lashing, and subsequently it's wake up call. Prophetic that I said "I want to hear creepy noises and shoot monsters all day long, but the admission price of playing a Sierra level adventure game has worn too thin", because in Resident Evil 4, Capcom made the puzzles more about shooting things and stepping in beartraps. In the first level (LEVEL?!?!), there are basically no puzzle elements, and lots of me shitting my pants.

LIGHTNING (OP) PROS/CONS LIST:

Pros: Looks awesome, behind-the-shoulder view feels pretty fresh, sounds scary, is scary, Spanish!, dirty possessed Latino farmers, explosions!

Cons: Start-to-invisible-wall: zero, still "tanky" movement feeling, terrible dialog (not MGS SE terrible), ridiculous gameplay elements like eating raw eggs to gain health or "You took the Spinel". I took the what? Is that good?
