But then I've never played any RE game, so am hoping to be in for a treat when I do get it.
Skip the others and just try out RE4. It IS that good. There was even a thread about this game a little while ago.
How would you compare this to Sony's PS3 failure rate? Anyone have any stats on that one?
No stats but according to article : "less than one percent". http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=167269
