Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

Agree with you, but I don’t think all achievements should be easily accessible.

Reaching level 100 should be an achievement. And I’ll never get it, and that’s ok.

My issue with that achievement is that it's strictly an enormous time sink - it stands in stark contrast to the other elusive achievements in the THPS remaster that are genuine tests of skill.

It doesn't help that the game caps the max XP you can earn per session, so even if you are a THPS savant you still can't earn XP any faster than everyone else who has to cheese it past level 80.
