Spoiler

Resident Evil 4 is by far one of the best horror games I had ever played. And that moment when I first encountered this boss, I was hooked. This thing sorta gave me a combo of fun and suspense as I tossed harpoons at it.

Never played any of the Resident Evil games. They never caught my attention.

As a fan of Resident Evil games, I can say 4 wasn't really a "horror" game.

Ok, we get it. RE 4 isn't like the other games. But it needed to change otherwise the series would have died out. It may not be a horror game. But RE 4 is the main reason we still have Resident Evil today. Just saying.

Uhm... you mean the series that completely got rid of everything it did that made it popular? The one that made it more action and we got 5 (which wasn't a bad game, just a terrible title for Resident Evil) and 6?

Yeah, REEEEAL lucky we got 4. Once you got to that island bit in 4, everything horror about that game was done. Since then it's been nothing but a mess and it needs a reboot at this point.

Honestly I think it should too. All I was saying was that Resident Evil was getting stale and they needed to change it up. RE 4 was still a fantastic game and it feels like Capcom is atleast trying to make things better by re-releasing RE Remake on next gen and Revelations 2 being more horror focused.

Because they realized Revelations 1 did well because *GASP* turns out their fans LOVE the more slow paced build up horror that it was built upon! WHO KNEW?!?!?!

That's the problem with games that get to big for themselves. They try to capture an audience they never had, which will be fickle at best, and then isolate all the fans they originally had.

Example: Dead Space 3
