Hmm, Gamestop isn't having a midnight release and its already too late to get the best buy steelbook. I'm honestly thinking about just buying the digital version and getting the physical version much later down the road. I did want the deluxe edition perks anyway.

I've already bought the game digitally but I swung to Walmart earlier and they already had it on the shelves.

Okay, now I'm going to Walmart after work. I know it's not going to be there and piss me off, bit I'm doing it anyway.

GameStop “Hey we have your copy of Resident Evil 4!”
Me: “Cool, does that mean I can come pick it up?”
GaneStop; “No, it releases Friday. But we have it! Just giving you a heads up!”
Me: “… cool thanks?”

It wouldn't have been that big of a deal but it was the only copy, and they put it on the shelf and would have sold it if I didn't get to it first.

Zero punctuation reviewed it and it was mostly negative but that's more or less his thing.
He mentioned all missing segments though: {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} 1. Confirmed that U3 is gone. 2. No spiked falling ceiling. 3. The Salazar statue is there but it seems to be stationary. 4. No bulldozer scene. 5. No lava room 6. The bosses don't hack your comm.
The only one I'm upset about is the last one but hopefully that will be repurposed in some way as I didn't hear any other reviewers talking about really go into it. Number 5 kind of sucks too as I would have liked that to have been repurposed in some way.

Figured the lava room would be gone, and I don't really see U3 or the bulldozer as massive losses, but the statue's just such a memorable part of the game.

The idea of Salazar morphing into his Plagas form and then jumping into the statue, using it as armor, is just too obvious to me.

Their marketing campaigns for the last two RE games have been amazing. The puppets theatre of the bosses from Village, and now this for REm4ke.

And the bosses not hacking the comm just seems insane not to include! Leon talking to Salazar and Saddler was always fantastic and will be dearly missed. as for U3, thank god, hated that fight. the timed cargo section was fine and different but the fight itself was boring and it always felt like it took forever

The demo kicked my butt the same way the opening of the original version did. But I preordered it anyway because I remember how much I loved the game once I got past the opening then. Looking forward to many deaths to come.

ugh, went to three Walmarts. The first one only had the Xbox version, second one had none, and third one had them in the back back said they couldn't sell it.
Edit: Screw it, bought the deluxe edition, there's probably going to be a Gold Edition down the line anyway.

Just finished chapter 1. Died a couple times, definitely still getting used to the new lay of things, but so far this is a damn good remake. Very familiar but also noticeably changing things up. {Spoiler}That dude in the cabinet in the village is an excellent jumpscare.
