Oct. 2024

A masterful take on the Resident Evil 4 formula directed by the master of the genre itself. Some may not like how scarce the ammunition can sometimes get and how the player character is cheaply thrown into seemingly hopeless situations to try to yank a reaction out of the player. I liked how the environments and threats were numerous, ever changing to keep the game feeling fresh from start to finish. The only adversary that I found irritating were the traps placed on the walls and floors, the bomb quick time event felt difficult to defuse for my slow boomer reflexes. Sometimes the scarcity of ammo makes progressing feel hopeless, but things seem to always turn out great if you keep on trucking. Shooting doesn't always feel as right as it did in RE4, as the enemies shrug off multiple headshots too easy and go for your throat. But if you liked this game's forefather, then stop reading this and start playing damn it.

I was expecting to not like this game, or think its mediocre but I actually really liked it. This game isn't perfect by any means, but I do believe if you are a fan of Resident Evil or even Silent Hill, you should buy this game. If you end up liking the base game then pick up the DLC, that was personally my favorite part of this game. I don't want to say too much because its great to go into this game blind like I did. It's unfortunate that Tango no longer exists....

In a time when Resident Evil games were garbage and Dead Space 3 messed up the entire franchise, Tango and its Evil Within were the shining hope of Survival-Horror enthusiast. Rest in Peace Tango we will never forget you.
