Wiimaking Resident Evil 5

Resident Evil 5 is my biggest disappointment of the year so far. I went to my first ever midnight release for that game. I couldn't get over the feeling that I was playing Resident Evil 4 with high def graphics. It brought a friend and I together, but we haven't spoken much since we played this. I've heard that Resident Evil 5 might come to the Wii. That would mean it would look like Resident Evil 4. Something tells me the Wii version will be the best.

I played Resident Evil 4 on Gamecube, Playstation 2, and the Wii in that order. I felt the Playstation2 was the inferior version of the three. It might have had the original control scheme, but the graphics weren't as sharp as the Gamecube version like many ports back in the day. The Gamecube version had the biggest impact to the gaming industry. It was originally released as a Gamecube exclusive before it ported to the PS2. The Wii version of Resident Evil 4 is definitely the best. The added motion controls take the game to a new level of entertainment. It was one of those games that proved to me that the Wii knows something about hardcore gaming.

Here's to hoping the Wii gets hardcore gaming right again...
