I will tell you I now understand why RE4 gets so much hype around it. This game was amazing from start I thoroughly enjoyed my time with it. I have now played RE2,3,4 & 5 and I can safely say RE4 is the best so far in the series and from my understanding that has not changed as further titles are released.

The remake is a phenomenal achievement. if it wasn't for it, I would never play this game and I am glad I did. In just over 10 hours it so far is the longest in the series. The setting starts off very horror based but then turns into something so over the top and jaw dropping at the same time that I found myself never getting bored of the game or wondering when it was going to rather, I was wondering where it was going next.

The graphics are top tier with stunning set pieces, Audio design is on par. Enemy variety is good, always throwing something new at you so you are never bored.

The story is also quite good with the plot making sense and engaging throughout the play through.

From what I understand Ashley in the original used to be quite annoying, but I think they made some tweaks to her as she was fine through the game.

This game is definitely one of my highlights of the year easy 5/5 for me.
