Well.. It's a fun game. If you played previous Resident Evil games, it's similar, but to make it better and fresher they added Zelda-esque and MGS-esque gameplay additions. Yep, it really makes the game good. The camera angles were finally fixed, and now the camera is always behind Leon. However, when you aim with your gun, it goes over his shoulder in a cool camera angle. The graphics are absolutely amazing, the best of the Gamecube. The sound affects are awesome. However, it's really bloody, scary, sadistic, and violent (well, what do you expect from a resident evil game

?). It's not for the squrmish, but it's a outstanding acheivement. Also, there's lots of guns, and other weapons. A new feature is that you don't have an invisible bag of unlimited storage space. Now you have an attache case that contains you have to fit items in by the rotating them (same as Diablo II). I also hear it's great to play with your friends over. Yep, pretty much.
Gamespot Review: 9.6/10
