RE4 gamers confessions...


since RE4's release in 05 i have been playing this game to no end. however, even to this day, i cannot solve the sliding stone puzzle (while playing as ashley) without using the strategy guide. i have yet to know it by heart. what are some confessions you true gamers have?

last surprise i got was in 2004 when jigsaw rose from the floor.

On my first play through I thought that the ammo in the shooting range would actually be deducted from my own attaché case, so I didn’t play them till the Island when someone kindly pointed out that the merchant was providing the ammo.

Why do people so frequently get told to "read the book" on a movie database?

reply

In the lab, I was too afraid to pick up the freezer key because I knew the second I did that awful regenerator would wake up. So I spent about 5-10 minutes just staring at the key before bringing myself to pick it up.


It's been a long, long, long time. How could I ever have lost you?

reply

The first time I played the game, my final saves was something like 150 - 200, because every time I'd killed a couple of people or walked through a door, I'd run back to the nearest type writer and save.

Wow! I thought I was the only person who did this. I'd waste soooo much time back-tracking to find a typewriter, I bet it added at least three hours to my final time. I was paranoid, haha. Also, everytime I died I would just re-start the cube instead of letting it play through, lol.

reply

-I'm also very OCD when it come to my inventory, the guns have to be on the left top to bottom and all the grenades and ammo have to be together.

-When you first save Ashley I tried looking up her dress and she called me a pervert. I tried this several times throughout the game to no avail.

-The snakes still scare the *beep* out of me.

-I have to play the game with a light on, Prefer to play during the day

-The 1st time I played I got my head lopped off by a chainsaw maniac in the village and contemplated never playing again...(this was 10 min into the game)

-I beat this game 11 times and it still frightens me!!!!!!

lets see...

-I used to play this when I was 13 years old,but later I was scared to play the wii version until I died twice

-I mindlessly tried to kill Dr.salvador with a knife! (what was I thinking?)




YOU ARE SOO DEAD!!!

I *hate* the rolling boulders in the village. Only Krauser and the big room with cult members in the castle on Pro Mode has caused my deaths more times than the boulders. So, my controller is a bit old..

1. sometimes i would get so scared that i would scream when one of them ganados sneaks up to me.
2. i can't play this game at night

reply

i played this game so much i became Leon. And I'm a chick.
For example, when I'm in a store as I'm paying for something, I say "Ahhh...I'll buy it at a high price" (And yes I know the merchant says that) I refuse to go to the lake, and I avoid grassy areas, in case of traps. I wear fingerless gloves 90% of the time and I wear a leather jacket all year round. An I live in North Carolina and it's flippin hot in the summer.

Let's put a pancake on this bitch.

reply

my first play through got Leon stuck in one of the house and he got to busy snooping in upstairs bedroom and he didn't notice he lost his head

One day I was bored so I attacked one of the cows in the farm with the knife just to see if it died or not. After about two or three slashes, the cow retaliated and headbutted me. I actually screamed because I didn't know that was possible in the game, it took me by surprise. Mad Cow, lol.

reply

I managed to finish the game without saving and all in one sitting, took me just over 7 hours.

After beating this game and completing every mode, including Seperate Ways and The Mercenaries (I have literally beaten this game on professional mode almost 100 times in the last year) my band Smile Sinister (www.myspace.com/smilesinister) wrote a song called "Leon Scott Kennedy Saves The Day" and at every one of our shows I would recite Leon's monologue from the beginning of the game right before we started it. That's epic if I might say so.

reply

i work as a cashier and a guy didnt give me enough money and i just said

"Not Enough Cash.....Stranger"

I dont know how hard we laughed and the fact he knew what i was talking about

"A True Patriot Need Not Fear The SongBird"

reply

I threw eggs at the merchant, I also shot and killed him and there wasn't another for ages!!

reply

I was shooting one of those regenerater things, and I didn't notice one was behind me. It was 12 at night and when it attcked me form behind I let out the biggiest scream. I turned it of and went to bed I couldn't play on ahaha.

reply

Not as specific as the OP but my two confessions/habits would be:

I always feel that i have to organise the box/inventory. I always put all the health together, all the ammo with its corresponding weapon (yes i have to put the h.gun bullets with the h.gun, the s.gun b's with the s.gun etc) and all the items together (relevant to the box). Especially when that colour coding was introduced in RE3, i was so happy =) Lol.

Btw that habit is one i never can break from, i feel bad if i enter a boss and i'm not fully organised!

And the second is i'm uber efficient =( In the pre-RE4 titles it actually has stopped me from beating the game under a certain time. If i have handgun bullets i must use only them for zombies etc. I tend to finish the game with 60+ magnum bullets (today i think i ended RE2 second scenario with 74 i think) and 60+ shotgun bullets etc. And i then think about all that time i wasted killing things with the cheapest possible weapon, and how i took 7 minutes longer than 3 hours to complete the scenario!

Then next time, i do the same again!

I do something similar like that, actually. All the guns are to be neatly stacked in the left corner, from up to down, and if one have a RL, it will be at the bottom, while all the ammo (stacked handgun, shotgun, tmp and so on) and the herbs will fill the right corner. I'm glad it's just a game, in RL, I would likely be killed by a sneaky villager while I was going through the suitcase.

I just found out you can shoot the doors off in the village, had the game 3 years.... oh well!

reply

I always have to keep an organized inventory box, too. And it is critical to keep an organized box when playing Mercenaries. It seems to me, that when I throw away certain items, I stop getting those left for me. And when I keep stock of other items, I tend to pick up more of them. I don't know if I am explaining that correctly. But, there is nothing wrong with being a little obsessive about your inventory. It just makes things easier.

reply

I too like an organised inventory lol and I have shot the Merchant haha - I remember the first time me and my sis did it we didn't think he would die - we were wrong...have also purposely killed Ashley because she's so damn annoying!! lol

and I like the mine thrower WAY too much - seriously I want one...and I kill the chickens for the eggs but I couldnt kill a cow and I don't like killing the dogs even though they're evil...

and finally me and my sis have been known to scream "Leon" in an Ashley style voice - well it makes us laugh haha

Are metal detectors made of metal? That's always confused me. - Noel Fielding

reply

I do that too! OMG! I'm so glad I'm not the only one whose obsessed with an organized inventory. lol

The color coding in RE3 made me happy in my pants as well. lol

like in any other RE game, all my crap has to be organized before i can move on. all my guns are stacked up on the left side with the ammo near the guns with the box with the least amount of ammo being first, then i put my health in order from strongest to weakest, and i put my grenades in order too; regular, incendiary, then flash lol. i spend quite a lot of time organizing my crap throughout the game.

when i first played the game, i couldn't pass that one part in the beginning of the village, so i quit the game for a couple of days. i could not believe how hard it was, it was so frustrating.

i think i'm one of the last RE4 players who hasn't been able to get the handcannon! i've only gotten 5 stars in every stage with Krauser, and i just need one more with Wesker, and i think it'll be too hard with the other characters =(!

and i always have to save the wolf, break every box, kill every bad guy, shoot the birds, and i always have to have the broken butterfly in my inventory. i'm just glad this isn't one of the RE games where you have to beat the game in a certain time to get special items, cause i hate to leave anything behind =D.

THATS EXACTLY HOW I AM .. lol

reply

My first playthrough of RE4, I died 98 times. Also, out of the 14 times I've completed the game on Gamecube and 8 on PS2, I've only done it once without dying.


Why do we fall? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.

reply


I'm obsessed with pickups, I have to have every single one! Every peseta, every Incendiary Grenade, every spinel, every catseye, everything! If I miss something I'll risk my life to go back and get it. I enjoy having a full inventory of treasures! :P

I confess that I too get proper scared of the Right Hand Man and Regenerators. *beep* creepy *beep* they are.
