    This updated port ranks up with "God of War" and "San Andreas" as one of the PS2's best games. While the graphics are slightly inferior to the Nintendo version, the gameplay is fully intact. The big draw was the exclusive content (two Ada Wong campaigns, new costumes, extra weapons) which made it a rebuy for those who owned the original.

The big draw was the exclusive content (two Ada Wong campaigns, new costumes, extra weapons) which made it a rebuy for those who owned the original. Although it's 14 years old, "Resident Evil 4" is still the best game in the series. A true classic. I would rate it with a 9.5 out of 10.… Expand

    That was one of the best games I played on the PS2. Quite innovative, it paved the way for all TPS from then on and on top of that it's an excellent game in its own right.

    10/10, Masterpiece. One of the greatest horror survival games out there, amazing gameplay, graphics look great for a 2005 video game. Highly recommended to everyone

    This game is a timeless masterpiece that is highly recommended for future generations. It's a true gem of its genre and one of the best games of its generation. However, I would not recommend the other RE games because they did not live up to the quality and impact of this game.

    Excelente jogo, é impressionante como você sente vontade de zerar mais e mais vezes. Por mim é o melhor jogo da franquia e um dos melhores do Ps2

    This was the game that set the benchmark in all departments back in 2005. Holds a special place in my heart. I held on to the Steelbook Limited Edition of this whilst back in 2006, I traded in all of my PS2 games towards an Xbox 360. Masterpiece.

    Easily the most overrated game of all time. Almost everything that came before and after it in the franchise was better.

    es perfecto en todo lo que se propone, como todo pobre lo jugue en una consola pirateada, el mejor juego de survival horror de la historia, la mezcla perfecta entre terror y accion, jugabilidad buenisima, villanos buenisimos, leon protagonista espectacular.

    While waiting fot the remake to become cheaper, I restarted the original RE4 on PS2. And wow, it blasted me away. If you are looking for some retro survival horror, you're just right. Very enjoyable! Overall rating: 9.7.

    No nostalgia bias here. I quite literally just beat the game. I loved every second of it. I was worried I wouldn't like the gameplay at first cause it felt weird to me, but after I adjusted I loved it. I never got bored a single time. I never complained once.

Everything about this game was just so damn good. The fact it's almost 20 years old at the time of me writing this. It holds up insanely well. It doesn't look bad, the voice acting really isn't bad for the time. I seriously don't have any negatives. 10/10 to me. I do plan on getting the remake one day, but no time soon. I only paid $6 for this on PS5. Damn good deal. I honestly don't think I'll like the remake as much. Mainly cause of the gameplay differences and the fact I'll know what's coming, but I assume it'll be good too.… Expand

    Para mim um dos melhores jogos da era de ouro do playstation 2, quantas memorias tenho desse jogo, o jogo que me fez conhecer a saga e praticamente me apaixonar por games em geral, era incrivel e impressionante a qualidade de puzzles, e a atmosfera que esse jogo tinha na época, hoje em dia envelheceu terrivelmente mal, mas nunca vou esquecer das lembranças e da nostalgia que esse jogo me causa.

    A obra mais perfeita e completa.
    Revolucionou todo o cenário de games. Totalmente merecedor do GOTY 2005!!
    Resident Evil 4 é o pilar da franquia dos RE.

    Not playing through it from beginning to end would be missing out on a major milestone in gaming history, not to mention a hell of a lot of fun. [Dec 2005, p.70]

    Capcom turned the venerable but stagnant series around with Evil 4 [Nov p.72]
