This is by far the best gamecube game, and quite possibly the best game out there to date. If you don't own this game go out and buy a copy now. The replay value for Resident evil is very high, to date i have finished it 5 times.
Don't be fooled by the Resident Evil title. The gameplay has been completely re-designed. You now actually aim your weapon and this allows for much better gameplay.
The action is very fast paced in Resident Evil 4 and the enemy AI is very varied. Hard Mode is definately a challenge and worth playing through.
One of the best features about Resident Evil 4 is the fact that after you have completed the game throught once you can replay the same game with all your same weapons and ammunition and can play it again and further customise your weapons.
The best Feature is the fact you can customise your weapons. You can upgrade firepower, ammo capacity, firing speed and reload speed.
This allows for a lot of fun and after you get all the upgrades you can get an exclusive which is a special unique upgrade to the gun and in the case of the mine thrower it gives you "homing mines"
i give this game a 10/10 rating and strongly suggest that if you don't own this game you should go buy it today
