Resident Evil 4: Wii, receives 9.5 from Famistu May 21, 2007

Famitsu offered their first reviews on the Resident Evil 4 for the Wii in its latest issue, which just hit the magazine shelves today in Japan.
Of the 4 review scores given, two editors gave the game a 10/10. The other two were still lovin’ the Wii version enough to give it a 9/10.
The reviewers said that even though the content is almost the same as the GameCube title, the Wii-mote controls are to the games advantage, making the game feel like something fresh and different. One reviewer said that the game offers the feeling of being closer to the action as well as upping the tension.
Multiple reviewers agreed on two points, that the new controls are simple and easy to get into, and that even those who played the original will be able to enjoy themselves.
Release Date: June 19th, 2007
3rd party Wii-mote gun, great accessory for this game

Awesome. I loved RE:4 for the GC.

It’s funny, about 2 days before the rumors of this game coming to the Wii surfaced, I started to play the GC version on my Wii, then I heard the rumors and stopped playing.
I beat RE:4 for GC back in January of ‘05 and I can’t wait to play this version, such a great game.

I liked the earlier RE games, seems the survival horror genre is still as popular as ever.
