Capcom has done the impossible here. They've redefined a genre and created a game that has the depth of an RPG, the high-intensity action of a shooter, graphics and sound that match up with the best on any console, and the chills we've come to associate with Resident Evil. The result is life-altering.
Is it too early to declare Resident Evil 4 the best game of 2005?
Score: 10.0 (out of 10)
