Resident Evil 4
takes you on a secret mission at a mysterious location in Europe, where
you will fight not zombies in an attempt to recover the President's
daughter. Resident Evil 4 is strong gameplay somehow manages to survive,
despite a lazy porting job that will leave some PC owners wondering
what all the fuss was about.
In 2005,
Resident Evil 4 on the Nintendo GameCube was rightfully lauded as one of
the best action adventure games ever released, thanks to stunning
visuals and white-knuckle action sequences that ranked amongst the best
in gaming. Later that year, PlayStation 2 owners were blessed with their
own version of the game, featuring more missions and some other
unlockable goodies. And now you can play Resident Evil 4 on your PC for a
mere $20. It's too bad that PC gamers have been inflicted with a lazy
port that does as little as possible to cater to the platform. Forget
mouse support, forget tailoring the visuals to your own preferences, and
don't even think about any PC only goodies: this is a direct transfer
of the PlayStation 2 version. If you can get past all these problems,
RE4 is still an intense, thrilling ride that will keep your heart
pounding. But if you still haven't played Resident Evil 4, this version
should be your last resort.
The biggest
oversight amongst all these porting issues is that of controls. Resident
Evil 4 doesn't support mouse controls, though it does offer a mildly
clumsy keyboard-only scheme. Plenty of console-centric games play better
with a gamepad, but there wasn't even an attempt to implement decent PC
controls here. To experience the game the way it's meant to be played,
you need to plug in a gamepad. Whichever method you choose, the controls
present an issue during the famous context sensitive moments that
require a few split-second button presses. If you end up using the
keyboard controls, make sure to memorize which key is button 1, which
key is button 2, and so on. The same issue exists with a controller,
though it's a bit easier to get the button presses right because the
in-game diagrams are tailored toward gamepad users.
The fundamental
combat is where the game shines most. Your arsenal consists of pistols,
shotguns, rifles and more, with every weapon producing credible
results. Popping pitchfork-wielding villagers will cause them to drop
their weapons. Or you can shoot them in the knees to make them
momentarily fall to the ground. Because ammunition is not terribly
plentiful, being able to handle a crowd of shambling psychopaths with as
few shots as possible is a main priority. You've always got a knife as a
last resort, but unless you want to take a chunk of damage, it's better
to keep your distance.
