Hard to believe it's been more than six years since Resident Evil 4 stormed onto the GameCube and PS2, forever changing not just its own franchise, but third person action games period. That over-the-shoulder aiming camera? Pioneered here and then used in other top-notch games like Dead Space and Gears of War. But beyond the groundbreaking mechanics lies an amazing, extremely replayable adventure we're happy to finally present in HD.
RE4HD is now available on PS3 and Xbox 360 for $19.99, and includes the extra "Separate Ways" mission starring Ada Wong. PlayStation 3 owners have extra cause to be excited - for the next two weeks, purchase of the game comes with five free avatar images, and PlayStation Plus subscribers can buy the game at 50% off (they also get the avatar images regardless of purchase).
