Trivia:

The story is supposed to take place in Spain, but the Spanish spoken by the village people is the Mexican dialect (which has a very different pronunciation).

Goofs:

Miscellaneous: Leon and Ada continually get captured during the course of their scenarios, yet every time they get captured, their weapons and items stay on them. Who captures someone they intend to kill or torture but leaves that person's weapons on them in case they feel like breaking free and retaliating?

Quotes:

Ashley Graham: [the pair have just leapt down a garbage chute, much to Ashley's consternation] Are you out of your mind?
Leon S. Kennedy: I knew you'd be fine if you landed on your butt.

Excellent!

After thoroughly playing through Resident Evil 4, I still think that Resident Evil 4 is one of the best from of the Resident Evil series. It's nice to see Capcom taking a step away from the regular zombies which they regularly use.

You play as Leon S. Kennedy. You'll probably recognize the name from Resident Evil 2. Your assignment is to rescue the daughter of the President of the United States. After which, Leon travels to Spain to search for Ashley. The odds of success are strictly stacked against Leon.

You'll encounter many scenarios similar to the Resident Evil series, including the infamous "Avoid the Lasers" from Resident Evil the Movie. You'll have to get through several puzzles, dodging several obstacles and events within the cut scenes to avoid a gruesome death.

There's more to this game than just shooting enemies, there is a fantastic storyline to this game, but I wouldn't recommend it to younger audiences.
