Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

...Brief History Of Evil Resident Evil was first released on the Playstation many moons ago (1996, to be exact) and while it wasn’t the first survival horror game (that honour belongs to the French game, Alone In The Dark) it became the most famous survival horror game and practically kickstarted a genre that now includes games such as Silent Hill, Fatal Frame and a huge Resident Evil empire including an ungodly amount of sequels, remakes and ports, ...
...four years after the announcement, Resident Evil 4 was finally released on the GameCube. It turned out to be worth the wait, and has since gone on to be ported to the more successful PS2 with some sizable extras (much to the chagrin of Nintendo fans, who felt betrayed by the game’s director, Shinji Mikami, who claimed he would cut off his own head if the game was ever to be ported to the PS2; he has since apologised for the port) and awarded over ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

...a big scaredy cat of Resident Evil from Day 1 when we first bought Resident Evil Nemesis for Playstation One. From that day on, I only watch my sister play. But still, being in the audience is just as exciting and gets you to the edge of your seat as you're playing it! Essentially, Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition is a port of the two-year project from Gamecube and Playstation 2, with a slight enhancement. This Resident Evil stars Leon S. Kennedy, on ...
...at a reduced price. Nice. Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition itself is almost a new generation type of gaming compared to the previous RE titles; pulling itself away from the typical confrontation with dark empty hallways and shooting zombies that suddenly crash through the window whilst you're looking at the occasionally awkward camera angles. In RE 4 you control and become the third person, i.e. the protagonist (Leon) through the 3D environment and ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

...-- Summary -- Resident evil 4 is a revolutionary addition to the series which hurls government agent Leon into a mysterious village ruled over by an evil religious cult. The player will have to use all of their wits, with the help of a wide range of weaponry, to battle their way through hordes of enemies, epic boss battles, and a wide range of locations in an effort to rescue the presidents daughter and escape alive. I would not hesitate for an ...
...-- Introduction -- Resident Evil 4 is a revolutionary addition to the Resident Evil series in that it did away with the 'fixed camera angles' as well as a lot of the original control system. Many players believed this would prove unsuccessful. They were very wrong. Players take the role of Leon S Kennedy (also the protagonist of RE2), a government agent hired to rescue the president's daughter from the clutches of a mysterious religious cult in ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

The last Resident Evil game I played was the original on the playstation years ago when it first came out. I remember being tucked away in my mates attic room in the dark played it. I'm sure everybody remembers the first time they encountered the dogs jumping through the windows, that made me jump like you wouldn't believe and still the thought of it makes me shudder. I eventually found that the controls on that game were really quite clunky and ...
...up dead in what should have been a fairly simple situation, just because I was struggling with the camera view and couldn't get it round right to allow me to aim at whatever zombie etc was approaching. I have since stayed away from such games on consoles as I have never found the controls to be very natural, unlike using a mouse and keyboard on the PC. However, I read reviews of this game and how the control system for the wii was vastly improved, ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

The game resident evil 4 may be a lot of fun to someone who has played horror games before, but even then, it's too unrealistic and clumsy to function as a game that is truly interesting and occupying. That is not to say that it is not fun, though. Obviously, games like this cannot be realistic, but there is a line between unrealistic and so excessively unrealistic that it completely distracts from the game itself. Maybe most people don't care (which ...
...those who want a bit more than randomly shooting stuff, it does. Your name is Leon, and you are a US special agent charged with the rescue of the president's daughter. Quickly, you find yourself at the mercy of crowds of villagers which take awhile to kill but remain the exact same way no matter how many bullets you pump into them. Then you have stupid dynamics where if you pump a chainsaw villager full of shotgun shells to the face, their head ...

...been a huge fan of Resident Evil 4 on the PS2 prior to me trading it in to go towards my Wii, I had been about to buy the Gamecube version when this title was announced. The game involves Leon S. Kennedy (of Resi Evil 2 fame) now a fully paid up government employee, on the trail of the US Presidents daughter who had been kidnapped and taken to a small village in Europe (exact location never really specified but they speak some variation on Spanish) ...
...difference than the other resident evil plots in that the main throng of enemies are not zombies... saying what they are gives away a part of the plot... so I wont. Game play wise there are also differences, in previous RE titles, it has been a case of think first shoot later as your ammo may not last. This isn't such a problem here as many parts of the game involve you fire-fighting your way through large volumes of enemies (a typical run through ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

This is definitely the best of the games that I own for my Wii. (Others include Wii Sports, Rayman Raving Rabbids, FIFA 08, Wario Ware Smooth Moves, Brain Training). This adventure game is set in an enormous world, meant to be somewhere in Spain (I think), that is built in beautiful and terrifying detail. You play the part of Leon, a super-policeman of some sort, charge with the protection of the President's daughter. Inconveniently, she's been ...
...around finding and subsequently protecting her. The environment is huge, beautifully detailed and pretty scary, even before any baddies appear. The lighting, rendering, scenery, and spooky music are all spot-on. Sound-effects are also just right, with weapons, footsteps, breathing and monster noises all contributing to the experience. Gameplay is in the 3rd-person shooter-style, and makes good use of the Wii remote and nunchuck- the control stick ...

...am a big fan of resident evil too. I own them all- actually I have an extensive survival horror game collection- some of which are unavailable to buy in the UK and so are rare. I have to say that I also own resident evil on the ps2 (limited edition version), gamecube (first one I played it through on) and on the wii- and the wii's unique version is by far the best- I will explain why… Due to the controllers for the wii, the Wii-mote and nuchuck- ...

They sometimes even predict your move/aim and will duck/shift out of the way. Of course this is not unique to the wii- but ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition is based on Resident Evil 4 which was released a few years ago on the Gamecube and PS2. In Resident Evil 4 you are a man named Leon S Kennedy on a Mission to save the Presidents Daughter (Ashly Graham) who was kidnapped by a Group who took her to a Area which is covered by People who have been taken by a Evil Force somewhere in europe (i think) You mission is to Keep Ashly Safe and take her back home but to do this you ...
...Leon. Now while Playing Resident Evil 4 i Think the Controlers are Excellent you use the nunchuk as movement and wii the wii mote as the Gun (like Aim & Fire). I fell that the wii Zapper (please see my review) could of been used in this game as it would of made the experience 10X better. ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

When i bought this game i really didnt know what to expect. I knew it was a first person shooter based game but that was it. As soon as the evil voice comes over when the game loads you know you are going to be in for lots of gore and frights. Control are very easy to grasp right from the beginning. Aiming is done by pointing the wii remote as is knife slashing if your ammo runs out. The game starts off with you in a truck being taken to a village. ...
...gameplay really starts. The whole feel of the game is very scary. My girlfriends nine year old who is a game addict was watching me play from behind a cushion so i really dont recommend this game is played with minors in the vacinity. ou have been assigned a mission as a US agent to investigate the kidnap of the presidents daughter. She has been kidnapped by a religious cult that sends out its minions to stop unbelivers. These are the zombie-like ...

...games and probably the best Resident Evil game that's out so far. The game itself focuses on Leon Kennedy, an agent for the President of The United States, whose charged with the responsibility of finding the President's daughter, Ashley Kennedy. This plotline leads to a small village in Spain, where the locals are nothing short of crazy. Saving Ashley leads to shooting alot of zombies, demonic bosses and malicious monsters. The game itself is only ...
...who enjoy multiplayer shoot-'em-ups. However, if you are a single player shooter that I suggest that you nip down to the nearest gaming shop and buy this game. The plot line is solid and runs through the whole of the game, as opposed to the game being focused solely on the shooting. Like many RPGs, the game allows players to upgrade their guns which can be used at start of the game when a player completes it. The graphics of the game are quite good ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

I bow down to the people who made this game. Pure brilliance. Ive never liked the RE series, but RE4 is so different to the others that I rate as one of the best games ever. The main difference from other RE titles is the camera angle. In previous games, it was the nasty full room view, which also impaired shooting, being able to only shoot up, down or straight ahead. In RE4 however, it's changed to an over the shoulder view which switches to 1st ...
...as you control where you are shooting , which on the Wii is especially fun with the remote. It has also changed in the way that many more enemies are trying to eat you, with certain points in the game requiring you to survive an onslaught of 50+ enemies at least. This also effects ammo, as now, it can be found almost anywhere throughout the game instead of having to conserve it like before. This is a great touch for all the trigger-happy gamers out ...

now this is a game thats going to keep you on the edge of your seat all the way through. having just bought a wii this was one of my first buys and i just couldn't stop playing it, it got to the stage where i was up until 3am. the graphics are great and the story line is fantastic you fight your way through villages of non-zombies to rescue the presidents daughter and then get her to safety. ammo is limited all the way through so you need to shoot wisely. probably the best game of this year so far ...

Review of Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

The Wii version of Resident Evil is not your normal Resident Evil game. It is far more simple in terms of mysteries and puzzles. It is much more like a light gun game with the movement in the nunchuck control. It is however a very enjoyable game to play. The sound keeps tension flowing and parts of the game make it difficult the first time around. The thing that makes it easier is that you can save the game however many times you like, unlike previous ...

Resident evil 4, is in my opinion the greatest game on the nintendo wii, in fact it is so great I actually feel honoured to own it. When I first bought it I was thinking OH NO surely this game cannot live up to the greatness of the gamecube version, I was wrong it's got better. It still strikes fear hear into your heart when you hear the cry of "unforastero" coming from around the corner the tense music does nothing to make you feel better. And the ...
