Resident Evil 4 Released

Gamespot has the word that Resident Evil 4 has (finally) lurched and shambled onto the console market. From the article: Set after the events of previous RE installments, Resident Evil 4 follows series protagonist Leon S. Kennedy on an all-new adventure outside Raccoon City, the setting of the most of the previous games. This time around, the US government operative has been sent to a small European village in search of the president's missing daughter. However, since this is a Resident Evil game, he instead finds zombies--lots of zombies." Nothing like an outbreak of the undead to put on your tourist brochure.

That's odd...

However, since this is a Resident Evil game, he instead finds zombies--lots of zombies.

Because this review seems to indicate that there are, in fact, no zombies in Resident Evil 4.

Resident Evil 4 will be making its way to PS2 sometime late in 2005.

Living near several mountain/forest communities, I have to say that Raccoon city is very much a plausible name. If you get an image of a cute little raccoon character, that's an issue you're gonna have to work out with yourself.

Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw Controller

Capcom is also releasing a limited edition chainsaw controller for RE 4. Not required in anyway to play the game, but some might find it cool.

www.gaming-age.com is a great resource (IMHO), the content on the message boards vary from very useful and insightful information/reviews to borderline trolling though.
