Awesome graphics and story and with the new aiming system this game is great. If that's what you prefer, then definitely check out Silent Hill 2.a great game. The main differences being that the SH games have more difficult puzzles and more adult and disturbing themes and visuals. I've never played any of the RE games before, but this game reminded me a lot of the Silent Hill games. I prefer using the keyboard though and it wasn't difficult. A good gamepad would also help, because you can't use a mouse/touch-pad with this game. Make sure you have the right graphics card first, however, as you’ll need one that supports shading and apparently this game doesn't work with Vista(?) either. If you enjoy horror/survival games and don’t own a PS2 system.this PC game is definitely worth checking out. The worst aspect of RE4 is the controls.they suck, but once you get used to this the game is quite good.lots of action and variety, good graphics (except the cut-scenes) and the game is quite long with numerous bonus features.

Another benefit of getting the official US version of this game is that it already includes the shading patch for improved graphics. Also, with black-market software there’s always the risk that it may contain some kind of spyware, malware, etc. It’s my understanding that some licensed software won’t even run if it detects Daemon Tools on you r computer. One of the main purposes of this type of software is to get around copyright protections. Not only is it illegal, but it requires the installation of Daemon Tools software to run. I’ve learned from experience to stay away from “import” software on eBay, because it’s really just black-market/bootleg software (usually Russian). You can buy it new from Walmart now for $20 and a used one on eBay w/shipping will cost about half that. That being said, if you do buy the PC version.do yourself a favor and buy an official US version. The only reason to ever buy the PC version of RE4 is if you don’t own a PS2 game system, because the PC version is a direct translation of the PS2 version of the game.
