It's fúcking great! Looks better than HL2 for art, and the story and bad guys are excellent

Giblet

Completed it last night

17 hours game time, well over that real time.

I'll never understand why people race through games like that. I enjoy spending at least a week or two on them.

i cant say i race through them i seem to get a longer lifespan out of games probably because i stink at them

I'll never understand why people race through games like that.

For me, I think it really depends on the game. Stuff like Resident Evil & Eternal Darkness I just wasn't able to stop until I finished them. XY/XX on DS was a bit like that too -- had me hooked

I've been playing 'Prince of Persia 2' since Christmas, but fairly infrequently has to be said -- it's good, but it doesn't make me wanna play it every day for hours. 'Halo 2', I actually slowed down with because it was getting all a bit same-y when you fly through the levels.

I don't doubt Resident Evil 4 will be a MUST-PLAY

It better f**king arrive tomorrow in the post!!!!!!!

Giblet

Theres still more to do though

Rew

I finished HL2 in about 8-10 hours over 2 days of a weekend coz if I didn't I knew it would have me obsessed. I want a cube and a few of themust have titles (inc RE4) but the more I think about it the better it would be if i didn't!!

taken from gamerankings.com

On 1/11 the GameCube received a new game from Capcom titled Resident Evil 4. Since then 11 sites and magazines have reviewed it including Deeko.com, GameSpot, IGN and N-Insanity. Together their reviews have resulted in an average ratio of 96.6%. That ratio has resulted in this title becoming the 4th best game of all time and the 1st best game on the GameCube.

bloimeh :eek:

gamerankings is cool alright I mean the right game is at number 1 but number 2 is a bit dodgy. i had it and it was fun but not amazing.


not exactly the best games ever. some are thuogh

honru

I just got this in the post today (videogamesplus.ca are fassst) and it's just as good as I hoped, enviroments are excellent, move to 3D is a huge stepup over past Resident Evil games. And did I mention how scary it is?

...make sure you play it in the dark...

evad_lhorg

hurry hurry hurry mr.postman!

koneko

only played a bit so far

it's scary

GristlyEnd

Started playing it last night. This is going to kill my sleep pattern. Sounds great through pro-logic.

The ProLogic II 5.1 sound is surprisingly effective too! Its good, hard, but not frustrating like the other RE games. I forsee some complaining (not from me..) about the move towards the hands on action approach of RE4 from the very slow and distanced RE0-3 games.

ok my order shipped last saturday so im expecting by friday.

i selected global priority mail on liksang. will it come with the post or separate?

evad_lhorg

for those who ordered from play asia, did you have to pay anything on customs? ive been reading loads of people in england are gettin charged about £15 on top of it.

Yep, of course. Paying customs duty/VAT is whats meant to happen when importing products. You may get lucky, I paid for a faster courier (UPS), they are more likely to get stopped by Customs.



Matt

gerire

how much you have to pay?

Creature

Ordered it from Lik Sang yesterday using DHL at a total cost of $81.90 (€62), got an email today saying its been shipped. Can't wait though I know I'm gonna be killed by some monstrous hidden cost.

evad_lhorg

if you get it before me im gonna be so pissed! i ordered mine two days before the official release from liksang. then the cnuts didnt ship it until last friday and it still isnt in my cube!!!!!!!!!!

evad_lhorg
