The Good
Incredibly amazing audiovisual presentation; Excellent, bloody, in-your-face shooting action; Suspenseful, lengthy storyline keeps you guessing; Astonishing boss battles; Plenty of extras give lots of replay value--Separate Ways side story exclusive to PS2;
The Bad
Some uncharacteristically goofy dialogue; A couple of minor graphical blemishes;
Originally released for the GameCube, Resident Evil 4 makes few sacrifices in bringing all its gory glory to bear on the PlayStation 2 and delivers one incredible thrill after another.

uh oh
 
while Resident Evil 4 looks incredible on the PS2, it doesn't look quite as good as on the GameCube, where it has richer colors, sharper-looking environments, and nicer lighting effects. Larger foes also look better on the GameCube (while smaller foes melt away faster when killed), and the earlier version's loading times are also shorter. Pauses during the interactive cutscenes are also longer by an instant on the PS2, making the interactivity feel a bit less seamless. So, since the underlying gameplay is exactly the same, the slightly but noticeably better-looking GameCube original ultimately still has the edge.

Just remember that for as amazing as this game looks, the experience is somehow even more awe-inspiring on the GameCube
uh oh
