GO BUY RESIDENT EVIL 4 WII EDITION

[Final-Fan]

There's no denying that RE4 is awesome, but I don't know if people who played the Gamecube version really need the Wii Edition, even if the WE also has the extras from the PS2 version.

I currently own the GC game, the PS2 collector's edition, and the Wii Edition, and have played both of the older games and am halfway through the new one ... but that's because I'm obsessed with the game. I mean, I really can't help myself. I could be playing SPM or something right now, and I want to, but RE4 always sucks me back in. And I can't stop until I have the Chicago Typewriter.

IMO the controls are better in some ways but a little more awkward in others. I must say though that shooting while stationary is much easier thanks to the lightgun-style aiming: I easily got 5950 out of (I think) a possible 6000 on the target range minigame, when I struggled to get over 4000 in the old versions.

But the above paragraph notwithstanding, the game doesn't seem "too easy" as some have claimed, or even much easier than before, that I can remember anyway. Except for that minigame, and by extension the parts of the game when you can just stand in one place, look in one direction, and shoot everything in sight. And there honestly aren't a huge number of those situations.
