Such a great series. I will never not love the first three games. I never played 4, but I do own a copy so I might have to sit down with that one soon.

Our dog was all about them crows lol

4 is completely different gameplay but very good. The remaster is well done. If you play it, look for shiny things. Kill birds if you have enough ammo to spare. Finding treasure to sell was my favorite part of the game.

I played it for the first time in the Wii and it was so good, I completed it 3 times.

Tank controls are something to get used to, but imo it adds to the experience considering the limitations of the time.

Adds to the horror.

I recently ran through Deadly Silence and it holds up well. Such a great game. 4 is fantastic and even better on the Wii if you have it.

I actually have a Wii. And I have RE4 for PS2. Unfortunately my PS2 is dead so I actually bought RE4 digitally this morning for PS3 and was surprised in the process that the PS3 storefront still exists. I appreciate that Sony still sees the tens of us who still play this way lol

Haha we love that though. The PS3 is such a great console. I'm actually cruising through the ff13 trilogy at the moment on PS3.

Sony PlayStation 3 did not need a subscription to play online! Thanks to Microsoft anti gaming practices now we do. Thanks Microsoft!

I love 1-3, but I really hated 4. Even the remake was just OK.

It’s a different game completely and it’s what started the re franchise to trend toward u til 7 came out.

Some people really love it though. I think if re4 was your first re game then you tended to like it more but not so much if you played 1-3.

My brother never played classic re games, but he loves re4.
