Wasn't this supposed to come out months ago? What happened?
 
Capcom realized that using a keyboard+mouse scheme would make the game far too easy/awkward, maybe?

Actually, I'm really not sure, I didn't really know they were even planning to realese it on the PC.
 
;( I hope it's released before next year anyway
 
Resi 4 sucks major ass anyway.


Or maybe I suck major ass at playing it. The controls and gameplay mechanic always seemed too broken to get past the first level.
 
You must suck then. :p

Resi Evil 4 was supposed to be out July, then I read September. Now it's Winter. D:

Most probably. I sneak into the village, from all manner of directions, then end up getting attacked, like you do. But because you have to stop to aim, you take aim at one person and shoot him several hundred times to kill him. By that time twenty villagers have climbed through the windows and are hacking away at your back with a chainsaw. And I never know how to get past that bit. I've tried escaping to somewhere but I only find dead ends and I reckon I tried every single house, trying to find a way to trigger the end of the level.

Crap game tbh. Spending about 30 minutes fighting near invincible enemies in a badly-designed level is not fun, whatever everyone says.
 
IIRC, you only have to pop around twenty guys in that section before they all bugger off and leave you in peace.
And the guys sure as hell don't take several hundred shots to kill.

May I recommend:
Aiming for the face + Shotgun (<3) + Kicking their heads in when they're stunned

20 corpses should accumulate very quickly with this simple recipe.


Damn I want to play RE4 now :D
 
I tried the Shotgun but it kept running out of ammo. And I definitely killed more than 20.
 
Just beat the game, it was awesome. Id love to play it on the compy.
 
just started playing it on a borrowed PS2. Seems to be awesome.
 
Reginald does suck ass, because the majority (including me) says that this game kicked major ass. There has never been a reason to make my buy a gamecube console besides this game. In fact, it's the only game i ever beat on a gamecube. So yes, this game rules the world. hopefully they release it on pc so I don't have to buy another gamecube just to play it.
 
It's a good game. It would have been nice if they took their amazing graphics and great gameplay and put it into a game with a good narrative, but whatever. As it stands it's still great fun, but if there was real substance behind the gameplay it would probably be one of my favorites.

As far as the PC port goes, I can imagine it working quite well on PC. The control setup is pretty much perfect for keyboard and mouse, the only problem being how easy it would be. This would have to be compensated by making the laser wobble more noticeabley.
 
I'ma just get the GC version and play it on Wii. Maybe they'll even do a wii-make.
 
why would they keeping delay it !!!! strange

do you think there is any chance to be a multi-player mode in it ?!!
 
I don't think this game would work too well on a PC to be honest. Mouse aiming would make redundant one of the main 'attributes' which distinguished the different weapons - aiming speed.
And if the game is playable on a keyboard, it will invite no end of bitching about the lack of a strafe button :P

I dunno, the game just seems to be designed around a control pad. I guess we'll see how Capcom tackle it if it ever appears on PC

Not to mention how much easier the game would be with instant pinpoint aiming with a mouse. Part of the game relied on your clutch actions while you were getting swarmed, giving it mouse control would just ... kill that feeling since you'll be popping headshots from 20+ yards no sweat.

I have a feeling this will end up like the other big name console games --> PC ports, shitty controls and turn into a complete afterthought. (MGS1 , MGS2, Onimusha 3, etc etc)
 
I posted about this monkey-poop awhile ago, I'm still waiting for it to fufill my zombie flavor cravings....
 
If it aint on PC it aint worth meh attention....
end of line

Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed today......
Your so close minded, an earwig couldn't fit in your head to pick at your ignorant brain.

What a terrible analogy. Shame on me.

Resident 4 on ANYTHING = awesome.
