A peculiar and abstract FMV mystery game told through the interactive behind the scenes footage from three never released films. The game starts off grippingly strong and messes with the player, revealing haunting imagery that will make you go, "Wait, this is a horror game?".

This is a great game held back by some of its mechanics. I played this in one session with a friend and it was very fun bouncing ideas off of each other as we attempted to understand what was going on. Ending was both unexpected and unnerving.

"Little rough, don't you think?"

This game tries to be many things, but it certainly does not feel like a Resident Evil title; unless of course you think the series should feel like a wacky big blockbuster treasure hunting adventure. RE4 had gone through a couple iterations in the 6 years it was in development, starting off as one project that then eventually became Devil May Cry. It seems every game in development during this time had a similar feel to it.

I played this after playing 1 through 3, and I legit almost dropped it. Starting off the game in a palette of brown was insulting to look at; the dialogue took me out of the scenario I found myself in; and the core gameplay loop did not click with me; however, I did enjoy seeing Ashley cheer me on as I shot at infected Europeans.

Resident Evil 4 and its consequences have been a disaster for the Resident Evil series and Capcom.
