Resident Evil 4
Story:News to all, Umbrella is gone! So where to move on from here? Leon is the presidents body guard a few years after Racoon and has since had a few experiences. Ashley Graham, the president's daughter, is kidnapped. Leon gets word that she is in a rural part part of Europe *cough*Spain*cough*. Although the T and G-Virus have little to do with the plot, it stands alright on it's own, including a new enemy, Las Plagas. 5/10
Graphics/Music:Possible the best looking game on the Gamecube. Realistic raindrops and lightning effects. The gun shots are done well and sound realistic. Leon's hair moves when you turn quickly. Alot of really nice touches like this. The shouting of the locals and most enemies sound polished. 8/10
Gameplay:The controls are easy to learn and feel at home on the Gamecube. R to hold the weapon, A to fire. L for knife. The scheme is simple, but allows for advanced tactics i.e. knifing groups saving ammo with kicks and whatnot. Another change from the original Resident Evil's is the amount of ammo. Before ammo was scarce, while this game is average, you get just enough to get by, unless you save up. The largest change though is the camera view. From fixed camera angles in the earlier REs this one has a comfortable over the shoulder view, great for point precision shooting. The overall game is easy to learn and most important, it's fun. 9/10
Replayability:Most games like this fall short here, replayability. This game shines here though. After completing it once options spring up. You can start a new file, using your supped up weapons from your completed game. You can try the game on a more difficult setting, Pro. You could try to unlike the special weapons, the Chicago Typewriter, Infinite Rocket Launcher, and the Handcannon. This brings up another extra mode. The Mercenaries, possibly the best mini game ever. You are dropped of in one of four area as one of five possible charcters, a total of 20 options. Players can try to get the highest score by getting combo's by killing multiple enemies and racking points within a time limit. To get the Handcannon you need to get at least 5 stars(60,000) with every character at every location. The highest score yet aquired is at about 320,000 now, making a high goal for fame seeking gamers. Another extra mode is Assignment XXX where you are a certain storyline character and adds to the storyline, filling in gaps, and a fun little run. 9/10
Overall:Voted best game of 2005, can you go wrong? Great graphics that never get old, although the main mode can get boring occasionally, switching weapons can cure this. Extra modes galor and an enganging storyline. This game is a worthy collection to any gamer, whether you've played other Resident Evil or not. 9/10
