Resident Evil 4 - HD Edition for the PC

Welcome back to Hiram Abiff's Game Show! We have a classic review this time around, Resident Evil 4 - HD Edition for the PC. Don't get excited just yet, this is a harsh one.
Anyway as always we rate on four main things here:
               Gameplay - How does it play?
               Graphics - 1987 or 2014? (Just to elaborate for that nasty gram someone sent me, did the game     come out in 2014 and look like a 1987 game by accident? Retro games aside.)
               Sound - Vibrant or White Noise?
               Lasting Appeal - Wham Bam Thank Ya Ma'am, or REPLAY!
Each section will be rated between 1 or 5 stars, 5 being the best ever (good luck devs!) and 1 being another download and delete.

Graphics: 3/5
Alright, Graphics, let's say one thing for sure, I was expecting full HD and a beautiful game, instead what I got was a neat skin on top of a nine year old game. Was I expecting too much? Of course I wasn't.




Gameplay: 2/5
Gameplay was, well not fun at all, I set my mouse sensitivity to 30, which in my defense is the current cap, it was still extremely difficult to move around, and no I will not go and set up a controller to play a PC game #Mouse&Keyboard. Coming from a fan of the original RE4 was a arrow to my heart.




Sound: 4.5/5
The sound quality was probably one of the best things about this game, it was deep, and at times downright scary.  However, there was a lot of repetition in sounds. This category still received the highest for the ENTIRE GAME! Go AUDIO GUYS!


Lasting Appeal: 1/5
Lasting Appeal, NO. In fact I already deleted this game from my PC, however I will be busting out the old GameCube and playing some on there, ahh the memories.

TOTAL SCORE!: 2.6

I commend the dev team for attempting to revive this legend of a game, but please, keep it in the grave and a fond memory in the back of my head. Download it and try it for yourselves!
Always;
First 7 minutes, no Spoilers Here

Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga - IPhone

Welcome back to Hiram Abiff's Game Shows' Review Blog! I will do my best to keep this as unbiased as possible, but I am a HUGE Star Wars Nerd. However, Lego Star Wars Saga for the IPhone was true to its predecessor on the main platforms. Check it out below!

Anyway as always we rate on four main things here:
               Gameplay - How does it play?
               Graphics - 1987 or 2014? (Just to elaborate for that nasty gram someone sent me, did the game     come out in 2014 and look like a 1987 game by accident? Retro games aside.)
               Sound - Vibrant or White Noise?
               Lasting Appeal - Wham Bam Thank Ya Ma'am, or REPLAY!
Each section will be rated between 1 or 5 stars, 5 being the best ever (good luck devs!) and 1 being another download and delete.

Gameplay: 4/5
I was rather shocked when I entered into this Lego universe; it looked, and felt as if I was playing on a console! The first Episode played glorious but when I went into the cantina to spend my hard earned studs, I was prompted to pay, real life monies. Specifically $.99 for an arcade mode, or $9.99 for the entire saga, plus bonus content; considering what you are getting, and the price I paid for the Original Trilogy, then the Prequels, and then the Entire Saga on Xbox360, this is a value! And Yes, I purchased it!



Graphics: 4.5/5 
The graphics, well were amazing, considering. This is a true copy of the originals!




Sound:  4/5
The sound was great, but buggy at times. On a few occasions my audio skipped, both on my phone and in my headset. Despite the few bugs, it was generally good! But not a perfect 5, not that it would be an easy feat.
Lasting Appeal: 3/5
The Lasting Appeal for a game like this is slim, I mean don’t get me wrong, I am a HUGE Star Wars fan! However, I can’t help thinking how dreadful this is to play over and over again. Sorry Disney.




THE TOTAL SCORE!
3.8/5

I was impressed that the game was cloned, however it still only a single play through, or for random fun. I am personally going to keep the game on my phone, just for shits and giggles. But hey, I paid!
