Funny. I could've sworn the back of the cover told me that a gamecube controller was optional.

About which part?

About 5 being the only one you'd played.

Ah, ouch.

It's the classic controller you're thinking of. That seems like it would actually be better than using the remote.

So you said that RE4's graphics were better in the GC. Is there a particular reason for that?

Nothing new, but still.

RE4 was originally a Gamecube exclusive with no plans to port it at all. However, less than a year later the game was ported to the PS2 and it lost some of it's perfection. If you compare the two in person, it's quite obvious.

Wonder how the PC version stacks up.

Weird. Could've sworn you were talking about the Wii version all along. I know about the PS2 version looking worse. They even used the GC's cutscenes.

Aye. Even that lag in the QTEs was annoying.

Sigh.

So the game looks the same on Wii, good to know.

I don't even remember how I got it.

Well wasn't it just a port with a new control system?

You should really give the older ones a try, if you can.

He should, but I think he is going to be pissed with the dated controllers. The game still has some fine jump off your seat moments though.

It still is a great game.

The Wii version is better than the GC version. The control scheme on the Wii works really well.

I was talking about the classic RE games. Should've specified.

I'd recommend at least 1-4. Code Veronica was so-so imo, but i suppose if it's available, why not.

RE4 on Wii is ultimately inferior to the Gamecube version. The control scheme was poo poo, in my opinion.

Speaking of RE4, the ps2 version goes up on the Playstation North America store this week, for like 20 dollars.

It's on XBox Live as well (or going to be), along with Code Veronica. Kinda mad though that there's no leaderboards for RE4 mercenaries, or at least from what I've heard.

Not the HD version. I'm talking about the standard one.
