Why did you make this thread?
>>381280175
I feel like you're kind of a fag for making this thread, but yeah, RE4 is pretty much the closest thing to a "perfect" game that immediately comes to mind.
There's a reason the re-release it for every console ad nauseum.
>>381281837
So, riddle me this, I'm a fag for making a thread about the greatest TPS ever made, but I'd be less of a fag for making a generic waifu thread or sucking Kojima's cock or something? I mean, what exactly is your homosexual angle here?
>revolutionized the TPS and horror genres
You mean revolutionized TPS and KILLED horror.
Who needs atmospherics and *gasp* actual horror when you have 'splosions and shootin', right? Don't get me wrong, I like RE4 for what it is, and I'm not dumb enough to think the earlier RE games were actually scary, but you can't deny the ill effect RE4 had on the entire industry. It might be good, but virtually none of its descendants are (both in and out of the the RE series proper).
>>381282228
I'll give you that, you have a point. Maybe it's a misnomer to say that is revolutionized horror in terms of actually being scary, but rather, I meant that it revolutionized the gameplay mechanics commonly found in horror games. I'd agree that games like RE3 were far more unsettling than RE4, but don't tell me the first time you faced a Regenerator wasn't a little disturbing.
>everyone freaks out after RE4 that Leon turned down free pussy
>Nobody questions the fact this bitch isn't worth banging
>>381282581
Honestly I always thought the ending was kind of funny. I mean, Leon is a pretty serious and by-the-numbers dude, it would be a bad idea to bang the president's daughter. It's also pretty clear that he wants to rail Ada, and like you said, Ashley is trollish looking anyway.
Massive fucking tits.
>>381282754

>>381282716
Yeah, I would definitely not bang the president's daughter. Save that semen for a woman named "Ada Wong"

It didn't kill horror at all. Horror's actually gotten far scarier than it's ever been since RE4 dropped the pretenses behind survival horror where the game gives you guns out the ass.
Nowadays, Horror games actually subject you to scary situations that are are genuinely difficult and challenging to overcome, and they do it with far better atmosphere and mechanics suited to a horror game.
It killed horror for RE, maybe, but as you said, RE was never scary.

Mikami'd own Vanquish for example, it takes longer to just sloppily get through god hard there than it takes to master RE4's combat. RE4 is a solid game no doubt but it became too easy even after a single normal playthrough, professional was a boring cakewalk.

Why choose?
it's great. maybe not the best, but only contrarians dislike it for the same reasons as HL2. both founded trends in gaming as the first of their kind and games were incredibly similar to them afterwards. i love RE7 to death because it feels as fresh as HL2 and RE4 were when they released, but i'm afraid others aping it in years to come won't even come close.
Anybody play that survival mode in this solo? I did a year back or so and its hard af. Shit gets pretty spoopy when your running around a small area as leon trying to fend off hoards of spanish speaking zombies.

>>381280175
>graphics that surpassed some next-gen games and still hold up to this day
Agreed.
>revolutionized the TPS and horror genres
It only has a few horror segments and you can actually count them, everything else is completely action driven.
And also, GTA, Max Payne and Syphon Filter were already out by the time RE4 was released, so it wasn't anything new for TPS.
>incredible atmosphere and level design
RE 4 level design is completely linear, and every room is always "go from point A to B", but with a few variations. You have to go from A to B but change the swords on the wall, or use a crank to smash a wall, or to shoot wood stuck on cranks.
>endlessly replayable due to gameplay that is inherently fun and rich with strategy and options
You don't know the meaning of endlessly.
And sure, - aim to the head/leg, shoot, kick/suplex, slash slash slash, did he died? no, repeat. - sounds like a very addicting and fun strategy.
>deep and varied weapon system
I don't know about deep, but yeah, it's varied.
>fun, action-packed story, almost like watching an 80's action movie
Agreed.
>best music
RE4 is an action game with a few horror segments in it.
Everything else is a complete hazard, a bunch of shit exploding and flying with hordes of enemies to kill. It's a TPS action game.
So you'd expect that an action game has a soundtrack that'd fit the action.
RE4 soundtrack was made to work on a survival horror game, which RE4 isn't. I fucking doubt that you can even remember one single OST that is not the saving one.
>wealth of content, with 20+ hour story mode, new game+, side campaign, unlockable weapons and features, mercenaries mode and more
No. There isn't more and more, that's it. But yeah, that's good and enough content already.
Jesus fucking christ you faggots that grew up with a PS2 by the age of 8 need to rethink this fucking game. It's nowhere near the best in the series, it has many clear flaws.
RE girls are tied with Soulcalibur girls in terms of being absolute SLUTS.

>>381288704
Linearity says nothing about the quality of the level design, some of the most well made levels are linear. RE4's strength is in how it lays out the arenas you fight in and the encounter design, the buildings all have several different entrances that you have to keep in mind for example, it does a very good job at keeping safe spots to a minimum, encourages movement and makes for some very dynamic fights. It also makes you consider the upsides and downsides if you do decide to camp somewhere because again, the areas have a lot of different entrances which you have to watch.

Whether or not you consider this game to be scary is subjective, the fact that it revolutionized these genres is not.
>RE 4 level design is completely linear, and every room is always "go from point A to B", but with a few variations. You have to go from A to B but change the swords on the wall, or use a crank to smash a wall, or to shoot wood stuck on cranks.
So by your logic, a game that is linear can't have good level design? The levels are well-designed regardless of how much "choice" they give you in approaching them.
>You don't know the meaning of endlessly.
And sure, - aim to the head/leg, shoot, kick/suplex, slash slash slash, did he died? no, repeat. - sounds like a very addicting and fun strategy.
Apparently you don't know the definition of "endlessly", nor "strategy". I've played through the game probably a dozen times, which is a rarity with me, only because the combat and mechanics are enjoyable moreso than most games of this type, which is why the game is continually engrossing even after all these years. As for strategy, if you played the entire game by shooting Ganados in the head and performing kicks, you played it wrong.
>I don't know about deep, but yeah, it's varied.
A shitload of weapons, of which you can only carry a certain number do to inventory constraints, and each of which can be upgraded multiple times and are distinctly unique. Compared to just about every other TPS ever made, this is pretty damn deep.
>No. There isn't more and more, that's it. But yeah, that's good and enough content already.
I said "mode and more", not "more and more", and depending on which version you own, yes, there is more.
How's the PS4 port of RE4?
>>381289535
>Final Fantasy anything
>ever better than just good
I honestly don't like it. I've played it on just about every console prior, and something felt off. For one, the 2D inventory sprites from the GameCube version are absent in favor of the 3D models from the PC version, and let me tell you, they look like fucking shitty. Literally N64-level shit. The controls aren't as good, the graphics are higher res and show their age more than older ports. Play it on GCN or Wii.

Right, because in autism land, you can't judge something on objective merits, if it's a "celebration of the series", it automatically invalidates the notion that everything which came before it is also good, right? No. FF9 was a great game for many reasons. It did everything right that the previous games did wrong. FF1 was a great game because it wasn't weighed down by the autistic anime shit that plagued later games. I bet you fucking love FFX and want Titus's tiny halfbreed cock in your stinky ass.
