resident evil 4. i played it for about 30 minutes and i said "fuck this". i cant understand how so many people love the game when i consider it one of the worst games i ever played.
Depth perception? That is an odd issue. You mean how the apparent point of aim of the laser would change position moving aim from targets in background to targets in foreground? That's more a parallax aiming issue (completely eliminated in Wii version that uses parallax-free reticule), stick with it and it'll get better.
To be fair, the Gamecube version is much better, it has GORGEOUS real-time lighting that really makes the environments come alive and adds much needed tension and suspense with enemies hiding in the shadows.
I suppose looking back RE4 does get off to a slow start, maybe it depends too much on fan perseverance, but it really opens up into a rip roaring adventure. I am a PC-fanboy mouse aim whore and I'll admit the controls are utter shit... but even admitting that, the rest of the game is still worth it.
My advice: give the game another chance, try the Gamecube version which was the original version as the developers intended it.
