i played from the beginning in the village and as i said, the visuals looked similar to the gamecube version (the textures werent as good, but in terms of ps2 visuals the game really shines). the controls, especially the aiming was not as precise as the gamecube version - but capcom might fix this till release.
overall the ps2 resident evil 4 seems like a really good port.
PS: black?
damn, i thought, that i forgot something.
