    One of the best games of all time just got one of the best remakes of all time! It plays great, looks great, sounds great and has stellar pacing!

    If you can’t enjoy this game it is probably because of one of the most petty reasons ever.

Capcom is so far beyond most of their peers. They are in a golden age. The people running that studio, directing and producing these games, building the engine, have a tremendous vision and they know how to iterate. The open secret is that resident evil 4 did not need a remake. It was even re-released a year ago for VR. How many games from the early 2000’s can you think of that could be re-released today and still be received well? It’s an elite list of timeless games like RE4, Half Life 2 and a handful of others. It’s because they are good games that are fun to play and have such a quality art style that they are always nice to look at even though technology has moved forward. So no, RE4 doesn’t need a remake. A HD rerelease with new textures would have suited it fine (and some fans have already done this). But what we got is so f***ing good that it justifies its own existence. This is one of the best games ever all on its own. So thank you Capcom, again, for your dedication to quality from top to bottom: Concept, Art, Level Design, Combat, Graphics, Performance, Cinematics. This game excels in every category, and once again sets the benchmark for action horror.… Expand

    If you’ve played re4 you might think you’ve seen all the remake has to offer. You’d be very wrong and in the best way. It constantly subverts your expectations in ways that make sense and make the game fun. Only small complaint is the movement takes a bit to get used to but idk if that even counts. 10/10 for me would recommend.

They feel grand while still feeling justified and not just pandering. The graphics obviously look incredible on the ps5. The tone is also great. It captures the horror and the action parts greatly. Now, I do have some issues with the game.
    1. The story
    This is a no spoiler review so I can't get much into details but the story feels like a step downwards from the original. To be honest, it's a big step down from the original.
    2. The Voice Acting
    These two are kinda intertwined with each other but the VA is a main part of what makes the story feel bad. The voice acting for some characters is just.... unbearable. It's so hard to listen to two of my favourite characters (Ada Wong And Leon Himself ) have some really cringy and cheesy line delivery. I think the worst offender of this is Ada Wong. I feel like turning off the game or just muting my tv everytime she comes on the screen. There are some good VAS though. Like I think Ashley is 100% better than the original.

    Summary:
    Overall, I think resident evil 4 is great. Good action and horror, good combat system and pretty great graphics. There are some negatives though like the okay story and cringeworthy dialogue delivery. Other than that, Resident Evil 4 Is an incredible remake that I highly recommend for new and old fans alike.

    Couldn't really ask for much better of a remake. Both the remake and original are excellent and worth replaying!

    What's actually hilarious about this entire situation is that big Youtubers are also checking this score/reading the reviews and they are absolutely clueless what to do. Yongyea, DreamcastGuy, etc. Usually they would make a video in a heartbeat, but this is different and they know that. They know it's trolling, they know that this game is universally praised on Steam and on most of YoutubeWhat's actually hilarious about this entire situation is that big Youtubers are also checking this score/reading the reviews and they are absolutely clueless what to do. Yongyea, DreamcastGuy, etc. Usually they would make a video in a heartbeat, but this is different and they know that. They know it's trolling, they know that this game is universally praised on Steam and on most of Youtube and they know that everyone is too lazy to upvote this game on Metacritic.

    But here's the main problem. They (Youtubers) created this situation and they know that (yes you know who you are, keep reading lol). So basically, when they admit that this score is fake, does that make Sony Exclusives scores also fake? Does that mean that Days Gone score is also fake? Witcher 3?? This is literal paradox. With MOST games, positive and negative scores have pretty much always made sense (there's some exceptions, when launch has been poor).....until Resident Evil 4 Remake. This is the first actually very good game, that had actually solid launch, that is getting BRUTALLY review bombed FOR NO REASON.

    At the end of the day, this situation really is weird and hilarious at the same time. 750 negative reviews (at the moment) wouldn't actually be that bad, if there were more people willing to write positive reviews, but people seem to be really tired at the moment (maybe because of the full moon, idk lol) or they just don't care about this score at all and that would be the best option (or they are too busy enjoying the game). Realistically this PS5 version would need at least 2500 positive reviews (other versions even more) to go into "green" again and that's just not happening any time soon (sadly).

    I'm hardcore RE4 fan and i loved the Remake, so i'm kind of sad that this even happened, but that just shows how much crazier gamers are getting every single year. I'm sure soon every popular game will be review bombed into oblivion, because there's always some loser who is offended, wants to troll or gets angry because he can't look at Ashley's panties anymore.    … Expand

    Game's fantastic, it took everything about the original game and modernized it without sacrificing the charm of the classic. A lot of people leaving negative reviews for some reason though, whether it's console specific issues (series X) or issues with voice actress choice I don't think people on Metacritic are capable of being objective about video games without trying to stand on aGame's fantastic, it took everything about the original game and modernized it without sacrificing the charm of the classic.

    Don't listen to any negative reviews here,filled with Contrairians for Contrairians sake, half of them can tell have barley actually played it and trolls. Go to any RE group or look up reviews and read comment sections and you'll see nothing but praise for most part. Only real negative I can think of is Ada's Voice actress, everything else is essentially a massive Upgrade over the OG. -Don't listen to any negative reviews here,filled with Contrairians for Contrairians sake, half of them can tell have barley actually played it and trolls.

    - New gameplay mechanics add SO MUCH to the gameplay loop especially the block/Parry mechanic with knife! Makes everything so much more intense and fun.
    - For every small thing cut (mostly QTEs and padding segments) they added in new Areas and new puzzles and even New Enemies and A new boss.
    - Remake is actually longer then the OG -The story and Dialogue is SO much better, especially the dynamic between Leon and Krauser
    - We have 3 new weapons and all 3 are awesome
    -Unlocks like Ashleys armor, Chicago typewriter and Handcannon are in
    - Mercenaries is in it's free dlc April 7th! Again it's FREE.
    - Seperate Ways is confirmed via many leakers to be worked on and will have new and extra content over the OG version.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a must own if you are a Resident Evil fan, and even more, a fan of the original RE4! The game stays mostly true to the original, but the controls and gameplay are simply perfect, unlike the original. It’s nice to have this run on nearly 60 fps on the PS5, and the game looks incredible. I would have given this a 9 or 10, but they left out the “It” boss fight in the island section, and that was one of my favorite boss fights in the whole franchise. Also, I was hoping they would have expanded on the Island section, but it seems they actually cut some small areas of that last third part of the game. Otherwise, this is easily my top 3 RE games, along with the RE2 remake, and the og RE1.… Expand

    Fantastic remake. I'm a huge fan of the original, and I think this 2023 game delivers. It is magnificent, the rhythm and the fights are intense. I was skeptical about the side quests at first, but ultimately they're welcome breathers. In short, all good!

    The charm system is fun along with the mini games that come with it. I like how they're releasing a free DLC soon as well.

    My main criticism would be wanting more outfits, like Leon's uniform from RE2 for example.

    One of the best games of all time. Exceeds the original in every single way. The combat, the growth of Leon as a character from RE2 Remake, the fact that it ACTUALLY feels more like a horror game and leans into the craziness, all make for a perfect combination.

    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.
