After finishing both Resident Evil 4 Remake and Resident Evil 4 (2005), I can honestly say that this is one of the rare cases where both versions deserve to be experienced. I started with the remake, which quickly became one of my favorite games of the year. The combat feels incredible thanks to the parry system, movement is much smoother, the horror atmosphere is stronger, and the game does an amazing job modernizing almost every aspect of the original experience. Compared to Resident Evil 2 Remake, it leans much more into action, but it never completely abandons its survival horror roots. There is always tension, especially during larger encounters, and the balance between action and horror feels almost perfect. After that, I decided to play the original Resident Evil 4, and to be honest, it completely exceeded my expectations. I knew it was considered one of the greatest games ever made, but I wasn't expecting it to hold up this well. What impressed me the most is how well the original game balances action, horror, exploration, and resource management. Even after all these years, it never feels boring. Every chapter introduces something new, whether it's a different enemy type, a memorable boss fight, a new environment, or some completely crazy situation that keeps the adventure fresh from beginning to end. The pacing is fantastic in both versions. There is always something happening, and neither game wastes your time. Just when you think you've seen everything, a new enemy, mechanic, or set piece appears to keep things interesting. The original's combat is much simpler, but it's still incredibly satisfying. Managing ammunition, choosing which weapons to upgrade, and interacting with the Merchant creates an addictive gameplay loop that remains fun throughout the entire campaign. The remake expands on these ideas with better movement, parries, stealth mechanics, and more aggressive enemies, creating a deeper combat system overall. One thing that surprised me was how much content the original game still offers. The bosses remain memorable, the level design is excellent, and the replayability is outstanding. It's one of those games that immediately makes you want to start another playthrough. Unlockables, challenges, and weapon progression give you constant reasons to come back. Of course, the original shows its age in some areas. The controls take time to get used to, especially after playing the remake, and some sections are stronger than others. Ashley's escort segments can occasionally slow the pace, although they were nowhere near as frustrating as I expected. The remake also isn't perfect. While the performance was much better than what I experienced in Resident Evil 2 Remake, I still had a couple of crashes during my playthrough and occasional frame drops. Thankfully, these issues were rare and never had a major impact on the experience. What amazed me most is how modern Resident Evil 4 still feels. After finally playing the original, it's easy to understand why so many games borrowed ideas from it. At the same time, the remake shows exactly how a classic should be modernized without losing its identity. If I had to choose, I still think Resident Evil 4 Remake is the definitive version. The gameplay improvements, expanded mechanics, stronger horror atmosphere, and overall presentation make it my preferred way to experience the game. However, the original absolutely deserves its legendary status. It isn't just an important game historically — it's still a genuinely fantastic game today. Very few games manage to remain this fun, replayable, and influential more than twenty years after release. After finishing both versions, I completely understand why Resident Evil 4 is considered one of the greatest games ever made.
There's a reason this game has influenced Dead Space and many other third person over the shoulder games that came after. DO NOT ever skip this just because of the remake, some things the Remake did better, some of it this version does. (For both story, characterization and enemy encounters) Unlike the RE1 Remake where most would consider the remake to be the definitive version, I still recommend playing this first before the remake just to see what are the differences between the two. The game comes packaged with Separate Ways, Assignment Ada (That the remake doesn't have) and Mercenaries. Do download RE4_tweaks on github to fix the mouse aiming as well for a smoother experience. 100%ing the achievements are pretty easy: - Play the game entirely - Complete all Merchant Gun range stages and collect all bottle caps - Play Separate Ways to unlock the 2nd set of costumes for the all costumes achievement - Do a 2nd fresh run on Professional difficulty (I consider this harder than the Remake personally)
Lightning in a bottle Two of the most important elements of a good game are Engaging Core Gameplay Mechanics and its Replayability Value , RE4 exceeded these conditions in leagues above any other games. During the period when the Resident Evil series was going through an identity crisis, longtime collaborator Hideki Kamiya was assigned to give resident evil a fresh new start but his vision strayed far away from the classic Resident Evil formula, ultimately Shinji Mikami (Creator of Resident Evil franchise) stepped in and made a game that revolutionised the third-person shooter genre forever. The combination of Tank controls with the new Over-The-Shoulder camera made for a refreshing take in the horror-action genre unlike anything that ever came before. Taking the freedom of movement away from the player is never a good move but in a horror game it works on the contrary. It adds another layer of tension and uncertainty for the player to keep in mind while trying to survive an already hostile environment. For someone who's accustomed to modern triple AAA shooters, this took some time to getting adjusted to, but with the laser-point accuracy of your shots and the super-responsive controls in accordance with your actions led to a very satisfying gun combat experience. The story has its usual Resident Evil charm to it - Memorable boss fights, Unique locations and Amazing Action Set-Pieces spaced out well enough to keep you engaged and also keeping the story well-paced complimented with Leon's unapologetic charisma and confidence with his one-Liners as a cherry-on-top over everything. Combine everything I said above together and you will have a game that will provide a unique challenge but will also the provide you the tools to overcome that said challenge, making you want to revisit everytime for some more. Truely a Lightning in a Bottle experience. FUN FACT : Resident evil 4 went through 4 iterations before settling down on the final product that we see today. The very first iteration under Hideki Kamiya was so far devoid of the Resident Evil formula that CapCom gave him the permission to turn it into his own game which eventually became the "Devil May Cry" series and the 2nd iteration was turned into its own game "Haunting Grounds" , a very underrated survival horror game.
