Resident Evil 4

[Laice07]

There have been some amazing titles for the Gamecube, and I was really excited about this game, but after reading the review on IGN, my excitment has reached at its max level(and I thought only Mario, Link and Samus could do that I need this game!! Here's the review, the score: 9.8/10

You don't own Resident Evil 4. It owns you.

[Herr Matzat]

IGN tends to overrate big titles, i never understood why people dig the resi games so much, stuff (from that gnere) like SIlent hill thrills me much more.

Resi 4 does look pretty good, it's looking a lot more action then puzzler, which is a good thing in most cases. I'm still torn whether to get it for GameCube for better graphics or PS2 for better (read : more familiar) controls.

:\

I liked the original Resi, as it was something different at the time, but as things have moved on, just really haven't liked it.

[apsham]

I'm entralled by the story of Resident Evil, even though I don't fully understand it because no one has it laid out in order for another to read. Anyways, the game play seemed too slow for me at times, and besides, i'm a fucking pussy who got scared every time you walked past that God forsaken board in RE2 that had the arms coming out of it,

Been confirmed for PS2 also.

And yes, I'll be renting this one when it comes out to see if I want to buy it. Looks like it could be a great game.

Yeah, at first it was Cube exclusive, but after the lacklustre Outbreak, the backpeddaling at Capcom was almost audible.

Outbreak was PS2...

[Kaney]

Wait, wasn't Outbreak PS2 only?

←

Thats the point. Outbreak was supposed to 'make it up' to PS2 owners, but it was shite so they're giving us back the official storyline games. Supposedly.

They're fucking idiots. Outbreak didn't sell because it sucked fucking balls. If they made a good game for both systems, the sales would be about equal.

[Kaney]

Still, you get the crappy sequel to Outbreak in March.

Nah, I'll wait for my Resi 4, thanks all the same

Exactly. I just wish they weren't bringing out the aforementioned sequal for Outbreak, and instead concentrated on making sure Resi 4 doesn't go the same way.

[Laice07]

Well I have have all 3 systems, and to my knowledge PS2 owners will have to wait a long time(around 6 months) for RE4 goodness. I played the demo and it seriously is the best Survival Horror game ever made.

My pro-Cube rant over.

[SeanDMan]

Okay, I just met the merchant.

Whatda I do?

[J.Vengeance]

i hope you people know, the team that make the GCN version of RE4 are NOT gonna be making the PS2 version, die to them protesting about breaking the agreement. and the ps2 version isnt supposed to be released till a year after the gcn game

[Gongsun Zan]

Whoo, I'm getting this game within the next hour or so.

And to make this post worthwhile, I bet I can beat it before SDM

[SeanDMan]

Probably.

I'm stuck on El Gigante. Fucker is impossible.

[Gongsun Zan]

*SPOILERS*

For El Gigante, it helps ALOT if you saved the dog at the start of the game. Once the fight starts, quickly shoot it a few times with your handgun and run away. Just keep shooting it, and pretty soon the dog should show up. Once it does, El Gigante will be distracted, allowing you to just keep shooting until the parasite shows up on its back. Instead of wasting ammo, you can jump on its back and slash it with your knife (one of those mash button rapidly thingys). After that, just switch to your shotgun (you do have one, right?) and repeat the pattern. If you need more help, just lure it towards the dog again - it should waste time trying to attack it, allowing you a couple more free shots.

*EVEN MORE SPOILERS*

I've reached the part where you have to chose between fighting another one, or a hoard of villagers. Haven't decided which to do yet though. The part where you have to defend the house with Louis (?) is crazy fun.

W00tage just completed my import copy and unlocked more weapons/game modes but I wont say what or it'll ruin it I will however say the magnum fucking rocks and the rocket launcher is a waste of money.
