The forty-forth round of Articles of Excellence has seen a return to the games with Gryzor winning it out with his review of Resident Evil 4. Scoring it a decent 3.6/5, he describes it as a title neither great nor terrible, but a a good game that has its moment while both making some headway in the series and forgetting some of the previous elements of the Resident Evil formula.

At first, it's about Leon, the guy from Resident Evil 2, having to rescue Ashley Graham (the president's daughter) from a cult located in a small Spanish village, but then you start to learn more about their motives, and it just "clicks" after a while. Memos that are scattered across the village and the various cutscenes that are given careful attention manage to captivate you for the duration of the game, especially as it gets more into the cult and into the "zombies", as you'll be wondering what's going on (in a good way) and what's about to happen.
