Look, I don\u2019t need to tell you how great Resident Evil 4 is. You\u2019ve either already played the original 15 times by now in any number of its various re-releases over the years, or were delighted to experience it for the first time with the phenomenal remake earlier this year (which IGN awarded our highest recommendation<\/u><\/a>). There was even a VR port of the original that came out just two years ago. But now, on top of it all, there\u2019s a PlayStation VR 2-exclusive VR mode for Resident Evil 4 Remake, raising the question of whether it\u2019s worth going back for yet another run through this horror classic from a different perspective. The answer may not at all surprise you! Yes, as it turns out: if you take an amazing horror game and give it a similar VR treatment to that of fellow residences of evil Biohazard and Village, it\u2019s still amazing (and often even more chilling) in true first-person. But it\u2019s also an imperfect port, with some finicky controls and tons of jarring cuts into third-person since, equally unsurprisingly, a remake of a game that first came out 17 years ago pretty clearly wasn\u2019t<\/em> designed with virtual reality in mind. <\/p>\n
