To be honest Leon's old model from GameCube still looks absolutely phenomenal considering how old the game is.

When RE4 first came out on GC, I thought the graphics looked freakin amazing. And frankly it still does considering how old it is. It was one of the best looking games of that era.

YES! I've been waiting for this 🙌🙌🙌

I remember just being in awe and amazement at how unique and individual the story for this game was. Never played or experienced anything like it and still comes out on top of one of my all time favourite games ever made

The original has held up incredibly well over the years, but damn, the remake is gorgeous. The characters and locations look phenomenal.

Wow original RE4 was so ahead of its time. It's amazing how well it holds up to this day!! Halfway through the remake and it's a masterpiece for sure!

Resident evil 4 has a special place in my heart I will never forget.

Is a lot of it changed from daylight to night? I loved how in the original the daylight was made so depressing, murky etc. In my opinion, that atmosphere was way scarier than nighttime.

I've played the original over 100 times, and I got to say THIS is how you remake a classic 👍👍👍👍👍👍

They should've made a system where there is an option to give a kitcken knife/boot knife to ashley for when she got grabbed once, she could break free in expense of the blade.

that is why RE4 original called one of the best game ever created because it still hold up and unique after 18 years

Fantastic upload. Just beat the game and thought it was excellent but didnt realise just how many improvements were made till watching this. Great job mate.

Yes!!! I was hoping you'd be doing a video comparison and have been checking every day, glad this video is up now!

Awesome! I was waiting for that one! Always the best channel for comparisons. ♥

Ashley does help now and again, in fact the room with the Plaga Armor she will drop blue fire laterns on them so leon can take them down, also she can now kick down ladders for use and even unlock doors, so yes she does help now and again

Amazing quality vid as always! both masterpieces on their own way. May i ask if you'll ever do a comparison video for the Metroid Prime Remaster? i was wainting for something from your channel but it never came :(

This video is incredible. So in depth and very informative if you're new to the original or the remake. Helped me a lot with the remake especially.

I've beaten OG RE4 20+ times and just wrapped up my 8th playthrough of the remake after getting the platinum. Amazing video!

Finally! I've been checking your channel for the last few for this video

About the Church exterior puzzle: the glyph combo one was duplicated and made mandatory in the chapter after del lago. I thought that would've been obvious. The Hexagon puzzle is mlm mostly new, but I feel it's an alternate take on the Sliding Block Puzzle. Optional, to the relief of some players, but kinda fun.

I can't stress enough how much I was looking forward to this video!

I wish Ashley could have the wait option instead of give space cause she can cause ypu to get seen often even when she's close to you cause she won't go into certain areas with you if the game thinks it's too small.

Thanks for the timestamps man. Had a great time with the video without ruining my experience.

Phenomenal in depth comparison as ever. Appreciate this one more than any you've done i think since I've been so invested in RE4r since launch

Just finished the game like 10 min ago. LOVED IT! Now it's time to get some chips and watch this video

Love this. Hopefully we can see a comparison with re3 remake later on

Awesome video, in the sound section, I would have liked to see you talk about the Music of each game and the sounds of the weapons with a side by side comparison. still good though!

I liked how you said this isn't a video about what game is better rather you're just comparing them and seeing what improvements have been made. I've seen so many that are saying oh the remake is 1000 times better or that the original is better cause of x y and z. The best part is that if you like the original better you can still play it instead. Which to me is the best part about a remake

This was cool 👍 I would love to see a comparison with this brand new official AAA remake and the RE4HD Project mod that was released a few years back for the original PC version. It's an incredible achievement in modding (better than most professional HD remakes ever made) and I think it looks very modern and sooo much closer to the new game, compared to Capcoms original "HD" PC effort that you compare here. With the bonus of keeping all the original game play, controls and original script intact. Totally preserving the original feel that made it a classic/masterpiece, plus it still includes all the cheesy stuff! 😅

Would also love to see a comparation between RE 2 remake and RE 4 remake. Either way, keep up the great work. ❤

Your videos are straight up EVENTS for me. It’s like going to a midnight premiere for a great film kind of excitement when I see these videos drop. Great work!

As an FYI as well. The cable cars from the OG game are actually still featured in the remake. In chapter 1 when you reach the house with the Luis battle, if u go behind that.. there's the cable cars

If I wanna play the extra content not in the RE4 Remake (as of 3/31/23), I can always go back and play it. Both are great masterpieces and for both similar and different reasons.

I've been so inpatient for this video! Thank you nick 🙏🙏

I love that you know what a skort and sweater dress is - great video man!

I love both versions. I’m already on my fifth run of the remake and still love the experience. I don’t know what it is, but I just want to play it again and again. :)

And honest comparison, not like Crowcat gaslight

I remember playing this on the PS2 and after playing the remake it's phenomenal. The nostalgia still brings fear even in my 20's.

Finally!! The video I have been waiting for ❤️🔥

I just found this channel and I am loving it!!!

You can store items at any time no typewriter needed. The laser sight can also be put on the Sentinel Pistol.

Seeing Hewey from haunting grounds in the re4 remake in a more realistic appearance was so sick. Very weird but I think haunting grounds while it wouldn't fly very well in current day due to it's dark story and uncomfortable sexual undertones it feels really cool and surreal looking at Hewey and wondering what a modern remake of haunting grounds could look like in terms of graphics and scares.

Great work! Much thanks ❤

Og leon was the best of the best. He’s the type of guy you’d go in a bar to have a few drinks with. He’s also cool, and collected and badass at the same time imo he just looks friendly. I also like how og leon exude so much charisma and confidence too. With the remake, ill get a lot of hate comments but he looks so emotional distant and gloomy, and in some cutscenes i would of thought he was a villain at some points because of how serious they tried to make him with his face. He’s definitely not the guy you’d want to hang with cause he’d probably wouldn’t shut up about his past lmao again no offence. Btw Paul Mercier did a superb job at voicing leon. He had the perfect calm yet firm tone and just feels so natural to me.

I am a huge fan of the original but the remake is refreshing and also an excellent game. RE4 in general is just amazing!

Yoo I've been waiting for thisss !!!!!!!

Outstanding comparison!!!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This remake is truly a masterpiece fr

My only issue is the back half needed 1 more boss. Maybe a longer last boss fight

1st time here. Very cool video!

That shooting range music though ❤ kept me for hours

One thing is for sure: Capcom knows how to make remakes! Thanks for the great video as always 👍

ashley actually DOES help, throwing blue lamps, solving pull cord puzzles with you, not to mention throws you the key to evac, give our girl some credit yo

this is the comparison i wanted to see, and holy shit is that a large graphics leap, looks awesome

What I like about the og is that the first villager that you encounter wasnt actually a ganado, and was kinda just warning you, yes he tries to hit you with an axe but my proofs are, 1 he dies easier 2 he doesn’t have red eyes and 3 the way he is just living and using the the fire is not the same zombi-ish way that they do in the village

Can people please be honest about this "remake"? It was a 75% graphics upgrade, with a few additions/removals/move-arounds to the map. Sure, I had fun playing this game again. But that's exactly what it felt like, like I was re-playing the same game as before with some minor improvements. Everyone is treating this like it's one of the best games ever made. So I'm assuming there's a good chance many of those people have either never played the entire original game or haven't played it at all.

It's funny how you can switch weapons real time now but I find myself still going into my inventory to switch.

I know the goofy chase with the Salazar robot is gone but I miss it too haha

Hell of a job bro, im def following

I played re4 so much on GameCube. Countless hours. I just started the remake 2 days ago and just got to the castle. I am enjoying it alot, but feel like its missing some of the charm and horror from the original. Especially the village after you first meet ashley, the darkness and suspense of that area used to scare the crap out of me. And then the gondola ride before the big cheese boss fight. I was kind of bummed out that wasnt in the game. The fortress area after the cabin fight was different too, but it wasnt horrible by any means. With all of that said, the improvements in the remake are really good and i am glad i am playing it. Brings back so many childhood memories.

With how well the remakes of resident evil have been handled so far I can’t wait to see what they do when they remake resident evil 5 and 6

I've been waiting sonlong for this video

About two hours ago I search for resident evil 4 vs remake comparison by nick and was disappointed in not finding any video

I cannot be the only one that feels the original's atmosphere remains superior, even to this day. Don't get me wrong, the Remake did an outstanding job with every setting, everything looks like a picture and all, but I loved how in the original everything looks and feels... dead. I don't know if this was intentional, but there's something about those sepia-like colors that make me feel like it's more coherent with the setting, at least in the Village. It brings you down, and makes you feel hopeless, or at edge. I honestly think that while the Remake is excellent, and this may sound weird, but it doesn't do anything for me!

I really like the Remake, but I personally am also disappointed that so many memorable moments & areas were cut. I personally would have preferred they kept some of them in. Some needed change, but some were just a detriment. For example, when heading up to fight Salazar, you took the tram-cars, which was a enjoyable experience. This led you to the path up to the barn where you fight Salazar and you could see the barn as you approached. In the Remake, you just arrive there, which just feels random & cheap, imho.

Yess I've been looking forward to this

Your videos always make my day!

Its almost two different games 👍 But i payed the GC Original at his release, 2 Months after the PS2 Version. And those two versions had also they differences. As example BearTraps and enemy’s was different placed in both versions.

The RPG room and cage room in the castle level were areas i was worried about in the remake, i like them but those rooms would've been quite a challenge with how the remake plays. Overall i really enjoyed the remake and i can always go back to the updated classic. The first thing i did playing the remake was to replace the new ost with the classic, the evil malaise soundtrack just fit so damn good during the sections it played at. Played through it on hardcore and have to say, it feels like they've made ammo less common despite the gunpowder and resources to craft some. The classic strategy didn't work out as great as in the original and i even had to sell guns and try different ones. The room at 25:12 was hard due to ammo.

Great video man. I'm pretty sure you can put weapons in your storage anywhere at anytime. Not just at the type writer.

It’s amazing how faithful the remake is even allowing you to use the og sound effects. I also like that U3 was saved for Separate Ways with Ada as it makes more sense for her to be jumping through lasers

I was surprised with the u3 boss part, first time playing a remake where a whole boss fight was scrapped out. I quickly noticed they cut it out after I beat krasuser and noticed theres no underground area.

One design change I do not like is that the game is set at night... one of the best parts of the original version was that it was set in a kind of overcast daytime light that was eerily realistic and scary. I'm tired of playing horror games in the dark, it's such a trope.

Been waiting for this😁. Are you going to do The Last of Us Pc port even though it's broken?

The remake was better and I'm usually a traditionalist kind of guy. The amount they added to it and the things they changed were done in such a masterful way. Changing Ada was the only complaint I had for this game. The Ada in RE2 remake was so much more vibrant and felt like she actually cared about the role she was playing.

I love old granado sounds

The original is one of my favourite games of all time and they absolutely nailed it with this remake, the only thing i don't like (and i had this problem with the original too) is having to grind pesetas to get the special weapon

Hello thank you for doing this and make a effort for us ❤ Can please do comparison between ps4 witcher 3 and ps5 Witcher 3

Hoping 5 gets remade. It's always been my favourite

The one thing that I like much more from the original than the remake is the voice work. Particularly Salazar, Saddler, The Merchant, Leon, Krauser, Luis, and Ada.

Some of the cut areas/events have returned within the "Separate Ways" DLC. (U3 is a big example)

Wow, you spared absolutely no detail with this comparison! A great game, a great remake, and a great comparison video. Keep up the good work man, you're consistently one of my favorite channels to watch.

Great job! Thank you for your time and effort! I still prefer the original with all its charm, the wit and the puzzles! 😊

I think it's funny that The evil within was heavy influenced by original RE4. I know that it's the same creator. And now in the RE4R it takes elements from The evil within. Like the stealth and the crossbow.

17:50 Ashley came in clutch with those blue flame lanterns that she dropped on the Suit of Armor Plagas

Hey Nick! Love these videos. Can you do a direct comparison between CSGO and Counter Strike 2? Thank You ♥️

My only issue with the remake is some of the Voice actor choices and how they cut out so much while adding nothing like they said they would.

do honestly miss the incendiary grenades feels a bit weird without them

yeeees i waiting for this, thanks Nick amazing work!! gracias por el trabajo FORASTERO!!! ( STRANGER)

The creepy picture puzzle seems to have been combined with the sword puzzle.

You didnt mention the ability to change weapons without pausing the game

I guess it would have been nice if Ashley could, I don't know, throw a brick like Ellie in TLOU or something to get you out of a dire situation, but honestly she's usually the target. So I really see no issue in how she gets captured a lot, that's the whole point after all

This is a better comparison vid than Crwobcat's re4 comparison

I just love RE2 remake and RE3 remake and now that i finish RE4 remake with this new gen of graphics, i hope capcom would remake code veronica re5 and 6 in the future

I think my biggest gripe about the remake are the guns : they feel plasticky, the Red9, almost a magnum sized pistol, feel and sound like an airsoft

The camera focusing on where Leon is facing is more logical, more realistic, and those overall add to the immersion. It makes the threat real, because if you glance behind to look over your shoulder, you are exposing your back again.

Is the graphics card with 24G memory used for playing Resident Evil 4 remake in the channel video 3090TI, 4090 or 3090?

With the newer systems, I would have loved to see some improved ragdoll deaths and also pretty bummed they didn’t make the lake monster Del Lago kill Leon in a more gruesome death (instead just implying his death now). It also seems they made the game shorter with cutting some stages and boss fights. Overall though it’s mostly an improved enjoyable experience that I’m exciting to be replaying like I would the original!

Love the remake. I think the only thing I can quibble with is the visual palette for the village levels. There was something about the original village's aesthetics that was more haunting. All the trees in the forest were entirely withering and leafless, the ground was blanketed in dead leaves, and you had drab lightbrown colors everywhere. There was a stronger and more oppressive sense of decay.

I love re 4 remake so much I even have two copy of it one for ps5 and the other for Xbox series x
