    Game of the year incoming. You review a game based on the quality, performance, etc not comparing to a lame, old, **** like the OG come on. take the OG RE4 out of your mind and rate this game like the old one never existed.

    This game is fantastic, its even better than the OG you got more options for you defense and character more alive this time, and the way leon and ashley react to stuff is pretty cool.

    A Masterpiece. I'm a huge fan of the original from 2005 and this remake took that and pumped up everything and changed what needed to be changed.
    Now waiting for the mercenaries and Separate Ways to finally play Ada, Wesker and Krauser

    The game was fantastic, anyone who rates it less than an 8/10 is surely delusional and shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a controller. Leave your laughable complaints and **** reviews for mobile games. Because that's clearly all you should be playing.

    Best Resident Evil I've ever played. The original RE4 is by far my favourite game of all time. This remake is better in EVERY aspect than the original. After that disaster that was RE3 remake, Capcom redeemed itself. It literally made me cry of nostalgia.

    The best game ever made. Anyone who makes baseless accusations about this game is retarded. The best gameplay, the best story, the best music, the best variety of enemies and boss fights, as well as the best reconstruction of history. The best of history are always hated

    Ontem finalizei a campanha do Resident Evil 4 Remake, o jogo está incrível. Cenários com ambientações caprichadas e lindas, gráficos polidos e texturas foto realistas, gameplay divertida e imersiva e sequências de cenas gráficas de tirar o fôlego. Com certeza um jogo obrigatório para os admiradores do gênero. Breve iniciarei mais uma jornada para me aprimorar no jogo e depois platiná-lo.Ontem finalizei a campanha do Resident Evil 4 Remake, o jogo está incrível.

    Capcom have managed to create one of the greatest games of all time yet again. Captures everything I loved about the original, which is/was my favorite game. Leon is as cool as ever, arguably his best appearance in the series. He manages to show much more emotion in this one, while still keeping his badass attitude.

He manages to show much more emotion in this one, while still keeping his badass attitude. He has more melee moves now and the parry system is a welcome addition to the gameplay formula. One of, if not the most visually impressive game I've ever played. The RE Engine continues to be one of the most impressive engines in the industry. Overall I think this is easily the best Resident Evil game out of any of the recent releases since RE7, and arguably the best in the franchise, contending with the original. It's full of content, with my first playthrough taking over 20 hours, in comparison to RE Village taking me 11 hours. I recommend this game to anybody that's a fan of the series, survival horror games, or just third person shooters in general. I promise you will get your money's worth. Don't listen to the review bombers.… Expand

    one of the best remakes, it keeps almost everything from the original while improving upon it, it did cut some stuff out off the original but unlike re3 remake, it replaces them with content just as good, but i'm sad that the u-3 was cut.

    A remake of what was considered phenomenal back then. Its looks great, the gameplay and controls is top notch and the settings are fantastic.

    Those giving a 0 and calling this garbage are simply garbage reviews and reflects in their personality.

    This is a must play!

Quite a refreshing experience compared to the original. Playing it on hardcore right from the start was incredibly challenging but not impossible. I'm looking forward to play it on my own ps5 and unlock professional. I cannot believe the dog is alive! I swear my and my friends shed a tear during that el gigante fight when he appeared … Expand

    Jogaço, um dos melhores das últimas décadas! Leon está impecável, herói como todos nós, nerdolas gostamos! Ashlei continua indefesa, também como gostamos, honrando o jogo original. Jogo indispensável para os amantes da cultura pop tradicional. Jogo memorável, faz sentirmos orgulho de sermos gamers!!! Nota 1000 para o jogo!!

    In my opinion the game is almost perfect it has a high replay value, great characters and a synchro that is just fun. The game manages to combine suspense and horror perfectly.

Le remake de RE 2 était la formule parfaite et c'est la formule qui aurait dû être utilisée pour RE 4. Le gameplay "lourd et lent" est parfait pour un jeu d'horreur mais pas pour un jeu d'action. Je me trouve toujours incapable de bouger entre les tonnes d'ennemis et les murs, le système de "aiming" est très difficile a adopter. J'aurais quand même préferé une approche un peu plus horreur qu'action, mais puisque c'est mon opinion personnelle, je ne laisserai pas ça affecter mon score.

    P.s. Après quelques heures supplémentaires avec le jeu, je réalise que la learning curve est un peu plus prononcée que les opus précédents et qu'une fois habitué au controles et mécaniques, le jeu devient vraiment excellent!    … Expand

    Please be aware. This game is amazing and one could argue there's a bit of cut content. We do not know if mercenaries and separate ways will be free DLC. Now that that's out of the way - this is a complete experience y'all. You could tell Capcom truly put their love into this game, from the easter eggs to subverting expectations from how they know players previously played the original. I highly recommend!

    Here's a few examples of a bad horrible reason to give it a bad review:

    "Ada's voice actress is terrible" - Ada probably has 4 minutes of screen time at most in a 20 hours game

    "The physics are horrible when you kick a ganado" - The idea is to give you and your enemies some space when getting grouped up on. It's a video game

    "The dialogue is campy" - have you played any RE games before? In fact - capcom wanted to keep some of the campiness because some of the lines are iconic "where's everyone going? Bingo?"

    Some people are not going to enjoy the game and that's cool. People have their own personal tastes.

    But if you are review bombing a game to suck the fun out of something that's genuine well put together and praised by everyone just to stir the pot then you need to seriously touch some grass.    … Expand

    The story of the game is a mediocre story, the gameplay is very enjoyable and attractive, in terms of visuals, it is equal to Cross Gen 2023 games and has a stunning visual, the main boss fights are very similar to each other. The sound design of the game is wonderful, the enemies have a good variety and only one new type of enemy has been added to the remake compared to the original version.

    Resident Evil 4 Remake not only does right by its original source of inspiration, but it also sets a high bar for what modern day remakes can be. All components of the story have been finetuned into a more well-thought out package, and that’s before mentioning the game’s full use of today’s graphical prowess to deliver a more terrifying interpretation of rural Spain. The core gameplay also retains what made it so great back in the day, but with modern amenities such as a parrying system, quick-select for weapons and the ability to run. And despite the new improvements, the increased aggressiveness of the enemies ensures that the game never feels like a cakewalk. I don’t know who still needs to be convinced at this point, but Resident Evil 4 is a masterpiece that I cannot recommend enough.
