Resident Evil 4: ****

I just played RE4 on GameCube. Scary fun!

It feels pretty different from previous Resident Evil games, being a lot more like a third-person shooter than before. It had looked like this game franchise was on its way down the tubes, so I have to give them kudos for having the guts to re-engineer the basics of the way the game work to make it more fun. Sometimes fear of angering fans can reduce a game to lowest-common-denominator hackery that leaves noone satisfied.
