Are there less red and yellow herbs then the GC ver?
I just downloaded a savefile from www.wiisave.com and began playing Separate Ways. Is it just me or is the font slightly different? I also swore Ada's grapple gun wasn't called a Hookshot in the PS2 version.
you know what capcom should have put into this game for the Wii version? a Wiimote weapon that you can only get after unlocking everything and costs a crazy amount of cash or something. i dont really care, i just think it would be awesome to have a Wii Remote weapon that shoots a laser beam or something. if you do so decide to bring it to the Wii capcom, make sure you put something like it in RE5. they could do it in UC, but it wouldnt be as awesome then. :lol
I'm trying to think of a way they could have done the rifle controls with the wiimote. Both Nintendo (in twilight princess, with the hawkeye) and Capcom failed to do it. I think the only way would be to move the camera with the pointer, and allow a button or gesture to act as "picking up the mouse". Unfortunately devs seem to be afraid of doing this because it could mean a spaztastic camera if your hand isn't steady.

They could always design a buffer to handle that. By now I've figured it most be much more difficult to actually design a buffer to handle the wiimote data than it seems. I think it's possible, just not with these ports. RS has a sniper rifle that works fairly well so there is some proof it can be done.
Why do I always speak. Then suddenly stop. When I'm posting on GAF? Who knows.
first time ive ever played it and so far am greatly impressed.
I am at the
just gotta say wow they are evil.
Making for interesting conversation piece too. Grandparents are absolutely in love with the wii and wiisports etc and RE4 has my grandfathers interest peaked a bit hes watching getting into the storyline etc.
Pretty funny getting laughed at by someone in their 70s cause a chainsaw removed my head in the game.

So, I could never like RE4 because I couldn't get a hang of the aiming, but the short time I spent with RE4 Wii a while back felt pretty good. So, to those playing through it now, try what I did the entire time-
Shoot person in the knee.
Pull out knife.

I was a zombie killing machine. A machine built to kill zombies, I tell you. I'm going to pick this up next week or so, but let me know if that is still an amazingly effective strategy

Beat it. 16 hours. As fantastic as ever!
Assignment Ada I had already beat on the GC, and its still the same, rather "blah". Separate Ways is new to me, so I look forward to taking that on. Finally, perhaps now I can finally get 4 stars all around in The Mercenaries with the Wiimote.
Anyways, Id give RE4Wii a 9/10.

Does anyone else find it much easier to accidentally kill Ashley? Quite a few times I'll be firing my gun that either has already picked her up or is trying to and even though I swear my cursor isn't over her I manage to kill her

this shit already happened a lot in the previous versions. I killed her countless times while the laser wouldn't be on her. I even killed her with the knife while she was behing me once :lol

So I just completed the game and I had no idea there was so much replay value. Now I have to get all the secret weapons and now I also have the PS2 extras to look forward to. The controls are so awesomely done and accurate. This is indeed the definitive version.

Not sure if someone mentioned it earlier, but is anyone disappointed about the PQ of the Wii version (even my friend made that comment)? I unfortunately traded my GC copy while picking up the Wii version so I can't make a direct comparison, but I seem to remember the GC version to be much crisper, even zoomed in with my TV function (I'm running it on a 60" HDTV).

Got the Wii version yesterday. Haven't played RE4 since it came out for GameCube. I just wanna say the controls add a lot to what was already one of my favorite games. And also, this game looks better than anything else on Wii. It still looks really good.
It still looks really good.imastalker co.

although this game is officially head shot edition, is it just me, or do they not do as much damage as before?

it's just you... I was thinking the opposite. to me, headshots seem to be too powerful
I'm in the castle now. I noticed that there were definitely more ennemies in the room where you got to switch the swords to open a door (3 waves of ennemies added to the three already in the room). Blind Prison Guy was easy to take down (semi-auto rifle ftw), and I now have to go through that freaking room after that.
playing with the wiimote still bugs me btw

I'm getting 90% and still have plenty of ammo even after shooting all the bear traps
Kicking helps too
I finished with 91% accuracy. Luckily RE4 has a way to "diffuse" headshots, because the game would be sooo easy if it didn't.
Separate Ways is actually really cool. I loved ringing the bell, but I wonder why they just didn't give Ada the POWER halfway through ch. 2.

ok, wtf am I doing wrong. I'm shooting them in the ****ing head and only get "head shots" (assuming this means exploding heads) maybe once a clip with the pistol. Is this right? Shotgun might be 1-3 times per reload. Of course rifle is 100%. Just wondering. Oh, controls are amazing. It's really gonna suck to go back to dual analog with RE5.
Hopefully companies take note of RE4, Godfather, and Scarface and keep releasing awesome third person action goodness. Graphics aside the system seems like it should be the de facto standard for this sort of game.
