Message: [QUOTE="Leifang, post: 23794, member: 5746"] Why are they even suggesting ultra-hard DS version with touchscreen gimmicks [I]for first timers[/I] over PC port of the 3D version that has a normal difficulty and DS one is optional "hard mode"? So, for Resident Evil 4, it has three PC versions, original botched PS2 port, later better port form Gamecube and the Remake, which is a separate game altogether, so it doesn't count (it's a great port tho). SO for original non-remake RE4, it's either GameCube or current Steam PC ver with a fan mod, which fixes stuff like... mouse aiming. I think it's called re4_tweaks? Original old port has completely different modding infrastructure, not compatible. On the other hand, RE5 PC port is perfectly fine but use fan patch for better aiming and possibly to remove the green tint as the game was made during the "piss filter" era. Anyway, rule of thumb for any game with a PC port, make a quick search (or brows Steam Guides first page) to see if there's a fan patch, many ports from PS2-PS3 era are just bad. I like that site's version on Metal Gear, quick explanation of why there's no one definitive version for each of them. One note, it mentions fighting Mantis in OG PC port with keyboard being bad, but there's no need, if you have USB or bluetooth gamepad, they work with PCs. Can anyone contribute there? I can make a list for first dozen Final Fantasys and all Tomb Raiders... the latter on PS1 have quirks that need to be mentioned, like PAL versions for all but 1 being better on PlayStation. And NTSC having so many versions with needless bundled demos the earlier disc presses are better (or just play PC version but those ALSO need fan mods to run well). [/QUOTE]
