At the time, RE-Make was mind blowing. The graphics, the mood, the remixed puzzles--everything was astounding. But, after that first playthrough, the scares were gone and the puzzles were no longer puzzling. Great experience, that first time through, though.
First time through RE4 was a genre defining experience, too. The graphics were second to none. The puzzles were pretty weak and the atmosphere wasn't tense. It had some truly awesome moments, though.
This would be a tough decision except for one thing: The Wii Edition. With the enhanced Wii controls, a great game became a legendary game. I probably played RE4 on the 'Cube more than the RE-Make. Toss in the time I spent with RE4: Wii Edition and it ain't even close. RE4 takes the crown as the better game.
