Product Description
In Resident Evil 4 you'll know a new type of horror, as the classic survival-horror action returns with all-new characters, controls and storylines. We last saw Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil 2 - a rookie cop in Raccoon City, fighting to stay alive. That was six years ago. Since then, government forces have managed to control the zombie threat and Leon has become a Federal agent. When the President's daughter is kidnapped, Leon tracks her to a remote, hidden fortress in Europe - where he'll relive the horror he faced six years before. Players will face never-before-seen enemies that make Nemesis seem like a kitten. You'll be wishing for the usual Resident Evil zombies!

 awesome game. buy it now, even if you already have it for cube/ps2 July 19, 2008
I beat this game a zillion times on both ps2 and gamecube and I still love it on the wii. the controls are so accurate, I rarely need the rifles.
Weapon upgrading is the best part of the game. It has the best weapon upgrading of any game I have ever played, and I have played a lot.
It also has some pretty good graphics, but considering it started on gamecube, they look a little dated and blotchy.
Anyway though, this has to be one of the best games I have ever played. Get it now!
by the way, I think its ranked as like the #11 game of all time on [...].
Wii's best game is RIGHT!!! July 10, 2008
This is the best game ever that I have played so far. I enjoy playing it at the hours go by. Just buy it you wont be sorry.
A new classic comes to the Wii July 8, 2008
I really, really hate reviews for re-released games that insult you for not having played the original when it was super popular. I had a PS2 and a Gamecube, but never got around to playing Resident Evil 4 on either of them. Then when I was reading reviews for RE4 on Wii it seemed like every reviewer was coming from the standpoint of "is it worth playing it _again_?" Some even insulted my gamer integrity, because of course you're not a REAL gamer unless you play every single popular game that comes out. Well I know I'm not the only one out there who hasn't played Resident Evil 4 before. This review is for you.
The first thing I have to say is, I never played through any of the previous Resident Evil games because of their bizarro control scheme. The good news is, the controls in RE4 are straightforward and (I think) easy to use. For the most part it's a traditional over-the-shoulder third person shooter. The only thing that might strike some players as weird is that you have to hold in the B button to aim (which is done with the Wii Remote) and then press A to fire. It's a little cumbersome, but you get used to it fast. Aiming with the Wii Remote is very satisfying, but I imagine it does make the game a little easier than it was on PS2 and GC. My only gripe with the controls is that during some of the cutscenes you are prompted to swing the remote wildly or rapidly press buttons. Sometimes failing to do so results in instant death. These moments have a very die-and-retry quality, because unless you know they're coming you will probably be caught off guard.
Speaking of cut scenes, the game has a pretty effective story. The writing is good, by video game standards, and the graphics and sound create a very creepy atmosphere. That being said, the ending is pretty dragged out. I kept thinking I was close to the end when a whole new section of map would open up. Although this stretching results in a reasonably lengthy game (I think it took me around 20 hours), the story doesn't hold up as well toward the end. There is also a lot to unlock. After you finish the story, you get the option of replaying it while retaining your items from the first playthrough, or playing on a new harder difficulty. You also get the Separate Ways missions, which allow you to step into the (uncomfortable-looking) shoes of another character who occasionally crossed your path during the main game. Finally, you get the Mercenaries mini-game, which I haven't had a chance to play through yet. There's a lot of bang for your buck here.
If, like me, you've put off playing Resident Evil 4, this is probably the most fun way to check it out. It certainly lives up to the hype, even a few years after its original release.
Fun and scary July 3, 2008
This game is fun and scary to play. At the end you will enjoy this game.
