Pretty much saying in some ways it feels dated but it's at the level of the RE2 remake which is an insta-buy

[sumdumfuk]

Already preordered on PS5 and eagerly anticipated the launch. This thing made me buy a GameCube back in the day

 

[Danjin44]

This is type of game that I dont need ANY reviews to tell me if this game its worth it or not, I already know it is.

 

[FunkMiller]

Much like with The Last Of Us Part 1, I'm waiting on this, until it drops a bit in price... and also for the VR mode to be released on Ps5. Good to know it's worth buying.

10/10 from Huber at easy allies:

 

[Ronin_7]

Woke up to the reviews & instant bought it.

 

[sumdumfuk]

Don’t really care about reviews apart of Karak but, whew, the consensus seems to be wild - instant GOTY

 

[BoxFresh123]

Currently 94 MetaCritic and 92 OpenCritic. Not too shabby at all.

 

[Perfo]

Wasn’t an huge fan or RE4 back in the days but I’m now ready to give it a second chance knowing what to expect

 

[GenericUser]

I always knew these devs would deliver nothing but solid gold. Remake 4 will remind people how good survival horror games can be. Washing away that dirty dead space remake aftertaste.

Didn’t play that yet. Thought it was well received apart of some woke trash here and there?

 

[Andrew Evenstar]

finally got to the demo last night. as many others here, i am a die hard resident evil fan. i've been travelling throughout Europe and bought a gaming laptop to be able to play games and travel. this is day 1. super excited !!

 

[Alan Wake]

Pre-ordered. So looking forward to this. Gamecube game was amazing, and Capcom know how to make remakes.

 

[Balducci30]

So this seems like basically GOTY? I played the demo - never played the OG game but loved village and loved the demo

Mad respect to your RE5 mercs runs on Twitch years ago. I was in that grind as well, albeit at a lower level ;D

~94-95 MC scores, game's gonna be yuuuuge.

I bought it cus it was well received - personally didn’t think it was that compelling. Maybe I’m missing something never played the original

Bro, it's 2023.

FF16
Diablo 4 and
Starfield

are still coming this year. Sick year!!

 

[DenchDeckard]

Already pre ordered which I'm trying to stop doing but...with this game I knew...

Let's fucking goooo!

I didn't need these reviewers to tell me what I could already sense.

Any comments on xbox controls, that's my only concern now.

 

[lh032]

Pre-Day 1!

 

[Balducci30]

Bro, it's 2023.

FF16
Diablo 4 and

True. Crazy ass year - and you missed Zelda lol. This reminds me of the old days

The only question I have now is whether to buy this on Ps5 or series x

 

[GenericUser]

True. Crazy ass year - and you missed Zelda lol. This reminds me of the old days

yeah, so glad corona is over and we finally get a steady stream of good games again.

 

[SakkanartSilentJealousy]

OMG, never expected this high score.

 

[Traxtech]

Lol at the review from siliconera.

 

[Kusarigama]

Remaking a masterpiece to yield another refreshed masterpiece! I am grining ear to ear

 

[F0rneus]

I mean...it's RE4 lol! Time to pop some Plagas again!

 

[GenericUser]

Remaking a masterpiece to yield another refreshed masterpiece! I am grining ear to ear

 

[killatopak]

Really wish they put this much effort in RE3.

 

[ShadowLag]

 

[Gonzito]

We do it!

 

[VeganElduderino]

I predicted the Ign review 10
GOTY for sure

 

[DenchDeckard]

All we need now, is confirmation that vaseline filter is fixed and xbox aiming, then we all eating!

Goty?

 

[TonyK]

I'm too lazy to read the reviews, somebody knows if the PS5 IQ problem or Xbox control problem from the demo is mentioned in the reviews, and solved in final release?

 

[Bragr]

Wow, impressive, I didn't expect it to be that high.

 

[GrayChild]

Expected nothing less from the Capgods.

Of course, there's always that guy (Pcgamesn) who deducts points from the overall score, because "RE4 is sexist, amirite guyze".

 

[F0rneus]

See that 10/10 score there? You can collect it and sell it to the merchant.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Now just sf6...please be god tier too.

 

[Danjin44]

So this seems like basically GOTY? I played the demo - never played the OG game but loved village and loved the demo

This game is gonna be fucking fantastic but with that being said I personally never consider Remake/Remasters as GOTY.

 

[Fools idol]

holy shit lol wasn't exepcted

I played like 5 seconds of the demo before we got a power cut, typical, guess it's the universe telling me to wait.

 

[Eiknarf]

Wow!! Killing it with the reviews

 

[balls of snow]

All in day 1.

 

[Fools idol]

Bro, it's 2023.

FF16
Diablo 4 and
Starfield

are still coming this year. Sick year!!

hardly expect any of those to be GOTY tbh... Bethesda don't have it in them, blizzzard is a shell of its former self, and Final Fantasy is unrecognisable these days

 

[skit_data]

Damn, 93 on MC after 80 reviews. Really impressive. As someone who haven’t played any RE games outside of just starting RE2 Remake after buying the RE2 and RE3 Remakes it looks like I have a lot to look forward to.

Edit: Pretty crazy how Capcom has seemingly become one of the best publishers out there, now all we want is a Dino Crisis remake of the same caliber.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Don't believe it until I play it.

 

[Luipadre]

I'm too lazy to read the reviews, somebody knows if the PS5 IQ problem or Xbox control problem from the demo is mentioned in the reviews, and solved in final release?

neither is fixed but day 1 patch isnt out yet

 

[Exede]

Gib Dino Crisis Capcom!

 

[AV]

God I can't wait for next Friday.

 

[Traxtech]

I like how siliconera have their jrpg guy review RE4 and gives it a 70 with the remark of "too much action, not enough horror" basically implying the original was solely a horror game.

 

[GymWolf]

I always knew these devs would deliver nothing but solid gold. Remake 4 will remind people how good survival horror games can be. Washing away that dirty dead space remake aftertaste.

The irony of dead space being much more a survival horror than re4 can't be explained with words
