Capcom chucked the Resident Evil design handbook into the shredder for the fourth instalment of the massively successful survival horror series, and the decision was an inspired one. With the camera now over your shoulder rather than fixed, Resident Evil dragged itself into the modern video gaming age without losing any of its intense survival edge. Set in a dusty Spanish village, it was crazed evil villagers rather than out and out zombies who were hell bent on eating out your heart. The Wii edition with special controls is probably the best - stay clear of the PC version though.
