    There are rough edges, and a hint of retro, but don't let that put you off a true masterpiece. [Nov 2016, p.77]

    Due to the original game age and a lack of substantial improvements, this is the most underwhelming of the three recent Resident Evil remasters. Suggested only to those who never played the game.

    I looked hard for something wrong with this re-release of RE4, but I found… nothing. I suppose some could fault the developers for not adding a quick weapon switch to the D-pad (going into a briefcase to switch weapons has never been ideal) and it’s disappointing to see that the FMV sequences weren’t given the same visual overhaul as the rest of the title. Beyond those small quibbles, however, the game remains as good as it’s ever been. The campaign is the best in the series, the bonus chapter offers a huge amount of new content, and the costumes change the way the game is played. This really is one of the best games ever made, and over a decade later, it hasn’t lost any of its cachet.
