Resident Evil 4 (GCN/2005) Guessed by brendude13
I suppose at this point, Resident Evil 4 has a somewhat murky reputation. Sure, it's generally considered one of the best games ever made, but there's no question it functioned as a catalyst for the change in format of the Resident Evil series. Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6 are its unloved descendents. Still, Resident Evil 4 should be judged on its own merits and not according to the business and design choices Capcom made after its release. And, according to those standards, it's a masterpiece. Dripping with atmosphere, RE4 stands as one of the best and most sinister horror games ever made, one that deftly combines scares with thrilling action, thanks to Capcom's improved camera and shooting mechanics. In truth, Resident Evil 4 is something of a horror-shooter hybrid, with some RPG and adventure elements thrown in for good measure. It's the best game available on Gamecube and, by extension, the PS2. Only the Xbox had a better console game during the 6th generation, and that game is number three on this list...
