Resident Evil 4 was a good game, but I don't think it's of the same genre as the rest of the series. I was never spooked in that game like I was in 2, a little bit of 1, and 3. I have a feeling that 5 will be the same the trailer is gorgeous though, but I don't really agree with controversy among some blacks that say that the game's racist and stereotyping my people.
Roto and Wuggly, stop sniping at each other. Thanks in advance!
I've beaten 1, 2 and 4. I liked 4. I think it can be scary at times, mostly because of those mental monks and their chanting. And the way they'd always, always let out a god damn sinister and evil laugh when they came up behind you unseen to grab you.
4 was probably less scary than 1 and 2, though, probably because it was less restricted. I thought they did rely on too many "jump" moments in the earier games though. After a while I could just predict what was going to happen next. Oh boy, a loose ceiling vent. I wonder if a Licker will jump do- ah yep, there we are. Nice try, punk.
Resident Evil 4 drew in a bigger crowd because it was more action oriented. Alot of the people who played Resident Evil 4 probably hadnt played any previous Resident Evil titles. Its no surprise that most people will say its the best. Go to any Resident Evil message board and ask long time fans whats their favourite title is. Your unlikely to see a swarm of votes for Resident Evil 4 like you do elsewhere.Originally Posted by Roto13
What's your point?
Oh for god sake, the same thing happens in every Resident evil thread.
Resident Evil 4 is the best game out of any game with the words Resident and Evil in it.
Anon say I.
I really enjoy playing the earlier RE games. Out of all of them, the two Outbreak games remain my favourite. Although I never played them online, I loved being able to play as an 'ordinary' citizen instead of the typical well trained police officer or S.T.A.R.S member.
The fact each character had specific strengths and weaknesses made for very challenging gameplay on the harder modes as well.
As for RE4, I suppose I'll be flamed for saying this but...it is rather overrated. I was very disappointed with it because it just didn't seem like a RE game. That, and it just seemed like a cheap way to draw in people to the series - too much action and too little fear. It didn't even have any 'jumpy' bits, that the other RE games did.

I just hope RE5 will be as good as it looks. I do have suspicions that it will be just like RE4 though - lots of action, shooting and one liners...and little to no scares.
I'd have to say that 4 is the best*, though I have yet to play CODE: Veronica (which I've heard good things about) or any offshoots other than Umbrella Chronicles.
*This represents the above posters opinion, and in no way is an attempt to state truth. If you feel like nitpicking and saying that the poster is trying to say that 4 being the best is a fact because he did not us "in my opinion", you may want to examine your life and change some things. It is implied that it his opinion, so don't get snarky and try to act smart. Some restrictions apply. Void where prohibited.
Boy am I an unfunny ass.
I just miss the good old days in Raccoon City. A shame Capcom never got around to making Outbreak File 3. I guess the days of RE are numbered though - it's basically just a mix of metal gear solid and alien nowadays. >_>
So yeah, I still think RE4 is the best.

This is why I tend to avoid the Game Opinion threads.
I played Resident Evil 4 for the first time yesterday (I'm borrowing it from a friend, because I didn't want it bad enough to buy), and thought it was okay so far (given, I'm not very far). It's the first game in the series that I have played. To be honest, I don't see what sets it apart from other shooters other than the fact that the game is meant to be scarier than most. To be totally honest, I don't like the controls.
BUT...shooting someone in the head makes their head explode. I lol'ed and yelled 'YOUR HEAD ASPLODE' ala Strong Bad.
