About Resident Evil 4

Resident Evil 4 is the sixth installment in the Resident Evil series and is often noted for its departure from the fixed camera angles of earlier titles. It introduced an over-the-shoulder third-person perspective, faster-paced gunplay, and more dynamic controls. The game features larger, more open environments and a new AI system that enables enemies to coordinate attacks and attempt to corner the player. Enemies exhibit more human-like behavior, such as climbing ladders, opening doors, and using weapons.

    Je nuancerais un peu, ça reste marquant mais surtout pour l'action, moins pour la peur.

    j'ai relancé le village au début, celui avec les fermiers, et honnêtement le côté horreur a disparu direct, on est passé en mode action pur, dommage franchement

    Lo jugué con mi hermano turnándonos cada vez que moríamos, y él se reía más de mis gritos que del propio juego. El ritmo de acción es genial pero da menos miedo que los anteriores.

    Same setup here, passing the controller back and forth. Good times.
