A great remake that takes a solid game and boosts it tenfold. I had a fun time, I laughed, I cried, I got mad, I got scared, and being an avid fan of the original, it was fun seeing what was changed.
This sounds positive but I only gave it 3 stars, the equivalent to a 60%, and why is that?
The difficulty spikes.
Anyone who knows me knows that I always play on the normal, middle ground difficulty, and ONLY change it if its literally near-impossible for me to continue otherwise. At least 5 times I contemplated switching to assisted mode because of this game. Unlike the original, where difficulty scaled with progress of the game, the remake has an absurd amount of difficulty spikes which when added to a lack of invincibility and swarm of enemies, it is sometimes very VERY easy to get sandwiched, or surprised, or smacked three times, during which you can't access your inventory to heal.
You were so, so close REmake, so, so close.

While I really enjoyed RE 4 remake I can't shake the feeling that in a way it diminishes the legacy of the original. It is a very good game with solid mechanics, great visuals and fun gameplay but at the same time it is just another great RE game and not the best action game ever created by human hand. RE4 remake is not a life changing event and maybe it never had chances to be one, but by playing it safe the game acknowledges that it does not even try to aim at greatness. And without that ambition the whole endeavor feels a bit pointless.

Un remake con la calidad que hubiera deseado hayan aplicado para el RE3.
Toma todo lo bueno del original, lo mejora y además agrega contenido buenísimo.
Entiendo que va a haber gente que va a seguir prefiriendo jugar al OG, por una cuestion de nostalgia o incluso estética, pero me parece objetivo que RE4R es una version superior a su antecesor, lo cual es RARISIMO para un remake.

10/10 la parte de la isla no me da ganas de pegarme un tiro :)
