Resident Evil 4 is without a doubt one of the best titles in the series (and this is from someone who preferred the old-school RE2 style games). That's a problem I never had with the 3DS's Circle Pad Pro. I found my aiming reticle frequently jerking around the screen in a series of overcompensating movements. Where Resident Evils 5 and 6 feel like modern shooters, Revelations' aiming simply doesn’t feel smooth with a gamepad stick. Surprisingly, it also suffers when played with an Xbox 360 gamepad, both on the Xbox version and when plugged into the PC version. And somehow, despite superior hardware, framerate issues still pop up in some of the more intense segments or when new areas are loading, across all platforms. Character models are the exception – they look great – but the environments are are full of flat, grainy textures to match the jagged, craggy geometry.

The Resident Evil 4 remake is the series' most relentlessly exciting adventure rebuilt, refined, and realised to the full extent of its enormous potential. It’s still a return to the classic formula from the first several games in the series, and the stranded and brooding ship Queen Zenobia is still one of the best settings in a Resident Evil since the Arklay mansion. ![]() That’s not to say that Revelations has suddenly become a bad game, as everything that’s good about it is still here. ![]()
