RE4 Remake is possibly one of the best Remakes of the classic Resident Evil games built from the ground up on the new RE Engine. Unlike one of the previous Remake titles ahem...RE3..., this one feels a lot more polished in terms of gun play, exploration, survival and resource management.

Firearms feel a lot more beefier in terms of sound design, and the animation of Leon literally "Wick Flicking" the empty mag out on a dry pistol is extremely satisfying. The third person animation has definitely seen massive improvement over the previous 2 Remake titles. Every weapon has it's perks, so gun play will feel different with a variety of weapons you equip. Oh, and pistols can now hold an extra round in the chamber when you perform tactical reloads, which is a nice realistic touch. However, this is not the case for long arms for some reason.

The map of RE4 is massive, almost like a massive Open World. Tons of treasures, loot and secret hidden throughout for you to explore, as well as mini-side quests which upon completion will yield you reward tokens to trade at the Merchant for exclusive items. Which definitely helps to encourage backtracking to previous discovered areas.

Survival is the key in RE4 Remake, you're encouraged to run more than to go straight for headshot kills at the beginning of the game. You start off with very limited ammo and health items, so every shot must count. Enemies are also extremely aggressive with their attacks, which helps to incentivise you to use knife parries a lot more. It is also recommended to place headshots as there are chances of critical hit that will allow you to knife or roundhouse kick enemies to death, saving a bit of ammo along the way. Enemies and monsters will get stronger every passing chapter, prompting you to adapt your fighting techniques tactically and strategically.

Everything from the gun play combats, exploration and survival part of the game is satisfying and greatly improved over the previous 2 Remake titles. One of the biggest complaint I have is that you can only store weapons at the typewriter storage. Which is kinda frustrating when you have ammo for a gun you're not using, and it's just taking up space in the inventory.
