Pontos Fortes: Best RE title yet, best graphics on Gamecube, new camera system, new aiming system, 20+ hour to complete first time, lots of weapons and enemies to kill, more emphasis on action, lots of replay value
Pontos Fracos: No grading system at the end of the game
Resumo: Wow, where to begin. This may end up as one of my favorite games EVER, and I've been playing games since the Atari 2600. Easily one of the best games this generation has to offer. Mikami and co. had the guts to completely change the Resident Evil formula by getting rid of fixed camera angles, pre-rendered backgrounds and other elements of the RE series that we all loved, or hate. In RE4, there's no need to conserve ammo or even backtrack as much as previous RE titles, solving pointless puzzles like finding the chicken key to a room by filling up 2 liter bottles exactly same with 5 ounces of water. Ok, I might have made that up but the previous RE titles had some pretty lame puzzles. In RE4, those puzzles are almost gone and have been replaced with puzzles that actually make sense and avoid unnecessary back tracking. The most obvious change in RE4 is the camera system. No longer does it hover above rooms, giving you the worst possible angles by not showing you what you're shooting at. In RE4, the camera is positioned behind you at all times. The aiming system is very neat as well. You can shoot enemies in the head or in the legs, and they'll react accordingly on where you hit their bodies. There are LOTS of enemies in this game. I'm talking about a death count of over 1000 by the end of this game. Yeah, you can see this game is not the typical Resident Evil game. This game is NON-STOP ACTION. If you hated RE before, reconsider getting this game. Many critics and gamers have agreed that this game is one of the best games they've played, and it's easily a contender for Game of the Year 2005. There are lots of replay values with minigames unlocked after completion. The game is very long, unlike the other RE titles that took maybe 10 hours at most. This game is over 20 hours and that's with LOTS OF ACTION. Other RE titles, you only killed maybe what, 30 zombies? And speaking of zombies, there's none of them in this game. The zombies are replace by smart villagers that for some reason want to tear your head apart. I could tell you why but that'd be spoiling the game. Anyway, just buy this game now if you like ACTION at all. Notice the emphasis on ACTION in this review. There's lots of it, especially for a RE game.

Pontos Fortes: The graphics are awesome, great soundtrack, flawless gameplay and high replayability!!!
Pontos Fracos: NONE!
Resumo: Resident Evil 4 for the gamecube easily deserves 5 stars! Unfortunately, this game is not available for the PS2 (not until fall at least) or the Xbox because they will miss out on the best Resident Evil game by far. The graphics for this game are spectacular. When are you playing the game, you will feel like you are a part of that world. The sound really shines as well because it is really moody, and brings a scary atmosphere to the table. The best reason to buy this game is because of all the improvements in the gameplay. The biggest complaint about all the other Resident Evil games out there was the camera angles and the frustrating controls. Resident Evil solves all those problems. The new targeting and action controls work out flawlessly. There is a high replay value for this game as well because it keeps a tally of your shot percentage and high score. This game is a definite buy if you own a gamecube!

Pontos Fortes: Great new action based gameplay, improved new control setup, amazing graphics
Pontos Fracos: Ho-hum storyline, no zombies (but there are crazy people)
Resumo: Everyone knows about the Resident Evil series. It single handedly launched the survival horror craze (although Alone in the Dark was first, there weren't many copycats until after RE). There have been so many RE's that its hard to keep track, but this one, Resident Evil 4, is different. How? Well, it now has a much more action oriented gameplay and better control mechanics. No longer is there a "point offscreen and shoot hoping to hit something" mechanic. Now, when the weapon button is press, you go to an over shoulder view so you can see exactly what's coming at you. In addition, your gun has a laser target so you now know exactly where you're bullets will be going (instead of wasting half of them shooting over a zombie's head). Also, similar to RE3's decision sequence (where you have 5 seconds to pick one of two alternatives and then make do with your new situation, occasionally, the screen will flash either the A button (for action) or some button combination which you'll have to press to performs some reflex driven action, such as dive out of the way of a boulder or jump through a window. Truly inspired and makes for a smooth, yet exciting gaming experience.
And there are no zombies. Instead, crazy villagers run around after you and even dodge your gunfire. That's right, run and dodge. No more lumbering zombies to avoid!
The story is mostly forgettable as you're one person (Leon from RE2) called to save the President's daughter. OK. Whatever. The game is still really a lot of fun and good for some great scares! If you like the RE series at all, or are even curious, pick this one up!

Pontos Fortes: Frantic, engaging gameplay, amazing graphics and sound, fluid control, challenging difficulty
Pontos Fracos: Difficulty might be a turn-off to a few people (probably not, though; it's that good)
Resumo: When this game was first announced, I had no interest in the Resident Evil series. I was never a big fan of gory games, and RE4 didn't impress me too much. After reading a few impressions of the game demo, I gained a little interest. But after seeing the trailer... I had to get this game.
It's worth it. The first thing you'll notice about the game is its graphics. They are without a doubt some of the best visuals you'll see on the current generation of consoles. But graphics don't make a game great. Fortunately, Resident Evil 4 is top-notch in the gameplay area as well. The controls are very similar to previous Resident Evil games, but due to the new camera angle, it plays more like a FPS. It's a good thing the controls are easy, too, because you're going to need as much help as you can get against your enemies. The series' classic zombies have been replaced by crazy humans, who will use every tool at their disposal to ensure your destruction. Expect to find yourself running from pitchforks, scythes, crossbows, and *shudder* chainsaws as the game progresses. And expect to lose your head a few times too. The AI in this game takes every chance it gets to kill your character, and a lot of the time it succeeds.
I really can't find any major faults with Resident Evil 4. The graphics, sound, and presentation are extraordinarily good. The game world is very diverse, more than I expected. The pacing of the game is great; just as you think you'll get a break, something else is trying to kill you. It's a roller coaster of thrills, and it feels just like a great action movie. Unlike other games, the action is all in the gameplay, though. There are cutscenes, but they're generally short and sometimes even interactive. The whole game is an awesome experience, and anyone even remotely interested should make it a point to play this game as soon as possible.

Pontos Fortes: One of the best
Pontos Fracos: none
Resumo: Any RE fan does not need a review to justify buying this game. It is simply the best. It has a new control system and perspective, and this game shows up in letterbox on 4:3 televisions.
This game has exceptional AI with awesome realism, making for a very realistic, and frightening gaming experience.

Pontos Fortes: Creepy music, Great Environment, Imaginative enemies, Good voice acting, New and better control system, Superior Graphics
Pontos Fracos: The aiming of the grenades aren't that great.
The last guy was too easy IMHO.
Some popping is noticable when playing the bonus games. But this is a nick pick.
Resumo: Great experience even if your not a Resident Evil fan. Well worth the money. There are multiple bonuses one can go for: Soundtrack CD, Behind the Scenes DVD, Strategy Guide, and Tin Edition. I went for the behind the scenes DVD bonus. But you can download this and the Music off the net, so I would say go for the Strategy Guide or Tin Edition.
Things I enjoyed:
Enemies introduced at the right time. I never got bored killing the same enemy.
Some points in the game made me actually jump. Twitch action sequences are done well.

Pontos Fortes: Stunning graphics, addicting gameplay, longest Resident Evil to date, fun bosses, a complete revival of a series
Pontos Fracos: none
Resumo: This is truly a reason to own a Gamecube. Resident Evil 4 is a total revival of the Resident Evil series. There are no more zombies, no more Umbrella, and no more T or G-virus. Resident Evil 4 takes place in Europe, where Leon has been given an order to find the President's daughter. His investigation leads him to a village filled with crazy villagers. Along the way he will battle with tons of enemies in some of the intense situations ever in an RE, fight some very memorable bosses, and unravel the mystery behind the village's mysterious inhabitants.
Gameplaywise (and in every other aspect for that matter), this game is a perfect ten. Leon now has the ability to aim his gun anywhere and hit different parts of the enemies bodies which will affect them in different ways. Hit them in the hand to make them drop their weapon or hit them in the leg to make them fall. Leon also has a variety of ways to interact with the environment. Sometimes you can barricade yourself inside of a house while trying to fend off a crowd of villagers. The villagers will then use ladders to try to enter the windows upstairs or group up next to the door or downstairs windows and try to break them open. Sound intense? It is, and very well done. As the game progresses the enemies will change, but the same intensity will still be present.
Even though plenty has changed about RE4, it still has an RE feel to it and a few nostalgic moments that will make hardcore fans feel right at home. It has changed enough, however, to bring in plenty of new fans for the RE series. It is definitely a contender for Game of the Year and I cannot recommend it enough.

Pontos Fortes: best game i have ever played
Pontos Fracos: nothing
Resumo: this game is the reason why i got the cube. This game has the best storyline, the best graphics, of any cube game. The game is fairly long and challenging but it makes it worth it. If you don't own it, get it. If you do, why are you reading this you should be playing it.

Pontos Fortes: Fresh story; refined controls; fantastic new camera view; more weapons and ammo for more action-packed gameplay; wonderful graphics and sound; tons of enemies; tons of fun!
Pontos Fracos: No quick weapon switch; no strafing; could use an extra checkpoint or two
Resumo: With Resident Evil 4, Capcom has successfully -- triumphantly -- taken the franchise to the next level. It's really emphasized the "survival" in survival horror, too. You're oftentimes on the run for your life. And villagers, much smarter than any zombie, team up, dodge bullets, and do other nasty things. Then there are the boss fights, which are unexpectedly brilliant. This game is extremely scary, and that fear is intensified by the graphics.

Pontos Fortes: A simply amazing action horror game. I can't believe you don't own it.
Pontos Fracos: Taken as just a horror experience, it's not that scary.
Resumo: Resident Evil has been known for two things: jumpy scares and terrible controls. What happens if you improve the gameplay significantly, but as a result it's a little less scary? You get Resident Evil 4, the best in the series and an all-in-all amazing game.
You might not realize it if you're not told, but really, the controls in RE4 are the same as in the previous series entries. The thing is, since the camera is over the shoulder, it totally works. Up is forward, down is back, all the time. You can now aim for specific parts of enemies, and enemies now drop things like health and ammo, so you find yourself looking forward to enemy encounters. Because of this, RE4 is simply not as scary as past members of the series. Still, that's a more than acceptable tradeoff.
Graphically, this is perhaps the best game on the GC. Voice acting is also surprisingly good, and the story keeps you interested. This game has all you want. In fact, I'm downright surprised you don't have it. Buy it now.

Pontos Fortes: Graphics, sound, gameplay, controls, extras... You name it, this game has got it!!!
Pontos Fracos: No glaring weaknesses, this is a great game!
Resumo: Capcom has finally created a worthy sequel o the Resident Evil franchise and has certainly put the SCARE back into survival HORROR. The graphics and sound are simply amazing. Watching “villagers” heads getting blown off and hearing the explosion is truly a gruesome, disgusting, but equally awesome experience to behold. The storyline follows Leon, the police officer from Resident Evil 2, and what has happened with him since that fallout.
However, the gameplay and controls are really where this game truly exceeds. In certain portions of the game, the “villagers” attack you in droves and keep coming, breaking down doors of wooden cabins and ascending ladders into 2nd story windows, not to mention the chainsaw wielding maniacs that WILL kill you with one hit. And this is only the beginning!!! Yes, it is frantic and fun. The new control scheme also works well with the laser sighting to target enemies with the guns you are wielding.
I believe this is the best game for the Gamecube system to date!

Pontos Fortes: Excellent Atmosphere
Excellent Graphics
Excellent Sound
Very Immersive
Pontos Fracos: Aiming is slow and sometimes imprecise.
No strafing, slow turning.
Resumo: Resident Evil 4 is far above any game in the series and far above any survival horror game ever. The game is filled with atmosphere (as are most survival horror games), but Resident Evil 4 also has a solid shooting engine (if sometimes slow or imprecise) and is filled with action. The camera is now behind the player and this completely changes things. You can actually see whats ahead of you, whats around you, and what you are shooting at. Overall it has excellent graphics, excellent sound, excellent atmosphere, and is an excellent game! 5 Stars, highly reccomended.

Pontos Fortes: Graphics, audio, story, nice and long 2 CD's worth!
Pontos Fracos: None
Resumo: This is the best looking resident evil series to date! It sounds scary and it looks scary. I love the fact that you can "buy" weapons, items and weapon upgrades. In the previous versions you had to be lucky and find the good stuff, with this version...if you don't find it, you can buy it from the merchants.
The action sequences where you must press a certain combination of buttons exactly when it comes to bosses and other areas can be frustrating. Example, L + R, then A + B ... when they tell you to do it. There was once instance when it there were numerous sequences where you basically had to memorize somewhat just to pass. They made this even harder because they switch up the combinations if you die. It's just frustating...not unbeatable!
I loved the feeling of not wanting to put down the game until i get to the next save, then deciding to see what was next and then i had to just keep on playing...man that was fun.
The length of this game really gives you your money's worth. This is my best game purchase this year. I definitely recommend!!!

Pontos Fortes: Excellent game play, graphics, 3rd person over the shoulder view, and it is spooky as hell.
Pontos Fracos: Absolutely none.
Resumo: The best survival horror game ever. Resident Evil 4 tops them off. There is an over the shoulder camera view that works excellent. You don't fight zombies in this game, but rather towns fold. Nevertheless, it's still just as frightening as fighting zombies in the previous game. If you are a fan of survival horror, or even if you aren't, you must check out this game.

Pontos Fortes: 1. Very Visceral
2. Great Graphics
3. Good controls
Pontos Fracos: 1. Escorting a helpess npc isn't always fun, and it's a major part of the game.
2. It's on Gamecube, so it's audience is fairly narrow.
Resumo: This is just a great game. It is one of the best games I have played in a long time. While the only other Resident Evil game I've played is Zero, I have to say the controls in this one feel much better. Controlwise, the only real difference is in allowing you to aim, but actually being able to see where you're going makes the character feel a lot less like a tank. In fact, the controls feel really good now.
I think the game does a fairly good job of keeping up the eerie feeling, despite no longer being able to rely on bad camera angles hiding the monsters. The more open areas of the game are crowded with structures, any of which might be hiding an enemy. I think it feels more real to be ambushed in a real seeming environment, than to walk directly into a zombie because the camera wouldn't let you look in front of you. The boss fights are pretty good. Many of the normal fights happen in very close quarters, giving the player a nearly constant feeling of being nearly overwhelmed, without actually making it impossible. I guess I'm just trying to say that the game does a very good job of puling the player into it.
What else can I say? You might think blowing up people's heads might get boring after a while, but it doesn't.
