    The definition of survival horror genre today - grown more beautiful with age.

    This time, the conversion of this classic is loyal to the original game published in 2005 on GameCube. Even if this is a lazy port, technically speaking, it is still one of the best survival horror games ever made, and you ought to play it if you didn't before. Period.

    All of that said, if you haven't played it yet, the $20 that Capcom is asking for RE4 Ultimate is well worth it.

    PC players finally have access to a proper port of the game. It may be showing its age, but Resident Evil 4 HD stands as the best version available. There is about 30 hours of content in this edition, which runs for a reasonable $20.

    Does it make sense to spend 20 € to play Resident Evil 4 in 2014? Who already knows everything about this 2005 classic made in Capcom maybe is gonna wait for a better offer on Steam. For all the others this PC port is mandatory and even if the game has some bitterness here and there, it remains one of the best Shinji Mikami's creations, as well as a true masterpiece.

    It´s a great classic that has took too long to arrive to PC in a optimal condition. It´s a bit outdated now, but its soul and quality are still there for anyone wanting to discover or rediscover it.

    A bare bones port that embodies everything PC gamers hate about lazy console conversions. Capcom should have let this one rest in peace.

Some who don't understand what's the big deal - ThisResident Evil 4 is one of the best video games ever made. This game was very influential. Some who don't understand what's the big deal - This game came out January 11, 2005 and can still compete with modern games. This can't be said about pretty much any game. From long story, to unique cool locations, characters, weapon upgrades, absolutely phenomenal boss designs (and there's so many of them) to the perfect balance between action and horror. Hopefully they do their best to remake it as well as possible. Expand

    I bought this game for $5 on Steam. It is one of the best if not the best Resident Evil game ever made. While it is a big change from previousI bought this game for $5 on Steam. It is one of the best if not the best Resident Evil game ever made. While it is a big change from previous RE games, This game is interesting as it is never boring, it is packed with action, you have a lot of ammo, the storyline is good. There are a few flaws but honestly, the good overshadows the bad so, 9 out of 10 from me. Expand
