Here's what we discussed Capcom's newest Resident Evil remake in our Resident Evil 4 Remake evaluation from previously this year.
Citizen Evil 4 was the supreme test of Capcom's remake abilities, and sadly, they buckled a bit under the pressure. The video game struggles with small mechanical concerns and does not transform or raise the initial product as boldly as some may have hoped it would. That stated, Capcom hasn't broken anything either as this is still an enjoyable, innovative excitement trip that has actually been raised to contemporary technical requirements in striking style. The brand-new Resident Evil 4 is well worth it for fans of the series, simply keep your hopes somewhat in check and you will not be spin-kicked by inflated expectations.
