<WRAP img_fill>{{:video_games:resident_evil_4_banner.jpg?direct}}</WRAP>\\
Resident Evil 4 was a breath of fresh air in a stagnant survival horror landscape back in 2005. Somehow it has managed to withstand the test of time and plays great across multiple platforms. Although most likely unnecessary it's popularity birthed a remake that deserves to be in Definitive Version conversation.

The Definitive Version of Resident Evil 4 is the PC version.  This remake offers the best balance of updated, impressive graphics and a faithful recreation of the original game. Some of the new features in this release that truly enhance your gameplay experience include an improved, more realistic-feeling combat system, more detailed weapon customization, and the ability to unlock new costumes, new modes, and more. This release is impressively updated, however, there are some aspects of the game you may think feel somewhat dated, such as the original limited inventory system, simple puzzles, and restrictive camera angles. Even though these parts of the game may not be ideal for some modern players, it helps with keeping a little bit of the original, classic charm of the game.
