Resident Evil 4, known in Japan as Biohazard 4 (バイオハザード4 Baiohazādo Fō), is a survival horror video game developed by Capcom Production Studio 4 and published by Capcom and Nintendo for the Nintendo GameCube. The story follows Leon S. Kennedy, who is sent on a mission to rescue Ashley Graham, the President's daughter, who has been kidnapped by a mysterious cult. Traveling to a rural village in Europe, he encounters a horde of violent villagers who pledge their lives to the cult.
Unlike previous games in the series, Resident Evil 4 has stronger focus on combat, with many more enemies to deal with. As such, it uses a new third person, over the shoulder combat system for easier aiming. Other changes to the game include context sensitive actions to interact with the environment, and quick-time event cutscenes.
RE4 was ported to the Wii with Resident Evil 4: Wii edition, with new Wii Remote based aiming controls and extra content from other platforms.
Problems
Thermal Scope
The thermal scope you pick up in the operating room cannot be used as vision is all fuzzy and unclear. You can correct this by switching from EFB Texture to EFB RAM.
Misc
The line "Six years later" at the intro doesn't appear correctly (by three letters instead of by one).
Crashes in Castle
When in the castle there is this puzzle soon after the first mini-boss where you and Ashley have to stand on two button switches. The game consistently freezes when your character walks to the right button switch. This hang only affects the JIT recompiler engine, so two options are available: (1) switch to the JITIL recompiler for this one part, or (2) get Ashley to step on the plate instead. Fixed by 4.0-1706.
Configuration
Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.

Revision | OS | CPU | GPU | Result | Tester |
3.0-811 | Mac OS X 10.7.5 | Intel Core i7 @ 2.2GHz | AMD Radeon HD 6750M | Works pretty well. Frame rate is close to 30FPS most of the time. Audio suffers from some issues (with DSP HLE). Every time a code cache clearing occurs, the framerate permanently drops below 15FPS: I have to close the game and restart it to fix this. Tested with default settings and DSP HLE. | Nolendil |
4.0-3369 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core i5-2430M @ 2.4GHz | Intel HD Graphics 3000 | Perfect 100%, 60FPS using lowest internal resolution, backend Direct3D, XFB enabled to virtual, V-sync disabled, idle skipping disabled, Skip EFB enabled, set your computer to high performance. | Talos |
