Holy crispy crap what a post! The only game Ive played in the whole of this series is... the REmake on the Gamecube. I guess Id be atleast tempted to pick up the fourth if I see it on the cheap somewhere because apart from it obviously having better graphics than most games alive today, I hear that the controls are a bit better.

 

I mean, pressing up to go forward all the times all well and good... when your characters pointing up!

Hi everyone! First post!

 

But I'm chiming in to note that the topic creator of this thread (shamelessly) stole the content I created over at Gaming-Age. So please don't give Dante the credit at all as none of his post is any of his work! Thanks!
