Just out of curiosity, what's your opinion on the RE4 remake?

Gaming's been pretty good for me. I played since I was 6 and it never got to one of those extremes where people ignore their lives for the sake of gaming.

And yet I play everyday. At least an hour. It's very rare for me not to turn a console on in a day. Still have more than enough time for everything else.

Also met some cool people. Met one of my best buddies through a Metal Gear forum, to the point we visit each other in different countries. And I mean a true friend. The kind you could leave your house keys with and not worry about a thing.

So gaming's been pretty great to me.

Hey bub, what's your problem?
I made a thread earlier this year about how I don't think any of the RE remakes match the originals and you were the first one to post in it?

Is this a Hot Take? I don't think any of the Resident Evil remakes surpass the originals

I am currently trying to platinum most of the Resident Evil games I own since the beginning of this year I have already platinumed RE5 and RE6 on PS3 back in 2009 and 2012 so I have not touched those but plan on getting the platinum on RE6 on PS4. I got all the Trophies in RE4 PS3 and PS4 years...

How could you make me relive that shame....

But to repeat why I don't think RE4 Remake matches the original:
"Now RE4 Remake is great but man I do not like the new Ashley system of Close/Tight. Having her wait and follow in the original feel more natural to me
Also the reticule bloom in RE4 remake seems harsher than RE7/RE2/RE3/RE8. I have a much easier time nailing headshots in those games then I do with RE4 Remake.
I also feel the Del Lago boss feels more like a mini game now than an actual boss fight.
Same with the Mine cart section forcing you to only use Luis's red 9 instead of it being an actual set piece"

I also mention How I love the Dodge mechanic in RE3 Remake but I will add on that I think I prefer it to the parry mechanic in RE4 Remake!

By The way since that thread was made I was able to get the following RE Platinum's:
Resident Evil Zero (PS4) on February 24th, 2024
Resident Evil 3 Remake (PS5) February 24th, 2024 (Done using save transfer)
Resident Evil 2 Remake (PS4) February 26th, 2024
Resident Evil 4 Remake (PS5) February 26th, 2024 (Done using save transfer, but one trophy I had to get and did it in PSVR 2 mode)
Resident Evil 2 Remake (PS5) April 2nd, 2024 (Done using save transfer)
Resident Evil 7 Biohazard (PS5) August 4th, 2024 (A lot of trophies were save transferred but a lot I had to re-earn.)
Also I want to point out not only did I get the platinum in RE7 on PS5, but also got all the DLC trophies
I also unlocked all trophies in RE1 Remake except for the "Get Used To It" Trophy and of course the Platinum along with it.
