Hi guys i just wana ask how re 4 works with the new version is it playable from start till end.since the pc version is *****.


my specs
q6600 2.4ghz
9600gt 512mb
4gb ram
Actually they are practically the same other than the controls being less sensitive and crappy on the PS2 version. Even though the PC textures are garbage they are still much cleaner than the PS2 version. Having played the PC version all the way through first, then trying it on the PS2 I was disappointed, not sure why since the PS2 is nearly ten years old.

Plus with the PC version you can easily mod it to your hearts delight and that's the key. It's as simple as dropping a folder in your RE4 directory to enable mods. I have about 4GB of mods and high resolution textures installed on my RE4 PC version and it's great. It looks so nice now, also I have Ada killing "not a zombie's" in a thong Smile.

To answer your original question yes it's playable but there are several hiccups throughout the game mostly in the way of slowdowns. Even on my 4.5Ghz E8400, 8800GTX with a 10,000 RPM HDD it's still not enough to play lag free. I used the latest GSDX10 (SSE4.1), Lillypad, and the most awesome Linuzappz. I can't remember the exact configuration I used but I could post it later if you'd like.

I get a nice framerate too but it's still very slow in some area's which makes me think it's not a horsepower issue but something on the software side. Like most games it takes a lot of tweaking and playing with settings to get the best experience.
ok thx alot for the info

Just for the hell of it check out these screens. Two from the PC and two from the PS2 version.

I suppose PS2 uses blur to make image more realistic because of the initially very low res...
i passed the pc version it was good but i played re 4 on my friends ps2 it was way better. thx for your help
Yeah the controls are much better for the PS2. Other than that though it's inferior IMHO. Although that's not saying much, it's like comparing a Mustang to a Ferrari. Take care.
