Btw, love the part after the knife fight with the lasers - adds a whole lot of "replay value" to the game...too bad it's the wrong kind of replay value.

For someone with an RE4 avatar you seem to have a lot of problems with RE4...

Can't deny that. However, it is my first time playing through it and it is on normal mode. I don't believe in playing through a game on lower difficulties and I never use the internet for hints/cheats. I might rant and rave, but I do love the series and the characters.

I beat all three SSWs at least once a year. The first is the most frustrating, but the last few levels of the game are fun as balls. Fun balls.

All three games in the series take a lot of liberty with the story, but it doesn't take away from how fun the games can be. Downing AT-Ats and AT-St's will aways be fun. Finally getting the force power to fly and not worry about those ghost jumps is a great feeling. And the final fight with Vader and Emperor were awesome boss battles for the snes.

Exactly! If you think 4 is difficult then avoid Code Veronica, Outbreak and Nemesis.

Like I said before, I don't think it's overly difficult, there are just a lot of unnecessary parts that involve surprise and instant death. I have CRUSHED Nemesis many times (hard mode with three saves or less on several occasions) and plan to play CV and Outbreak soon. I like RE4, but I prefer the more traditional games. RE5 was a disappointment to me, and I haven't heard great things about RE6 either, so I don't think I'm missing much with these new installments.

How does 4 feel after playing 5 first?
I heard a lot of mix opinions on 6, it looks like the only good section is Leon.

I like the atmosphere of RE4 a lot more than RE5, and the bosses are pretty cool. I'm also a huge Leon fan when it comes to my Resident Evil fix (maybe from playing RE2 for countless hours in the 90's) and I'll take him over Chris any day. I plan on giving RE5 another go pretty soon, but it's a low priority right now.

Bumping this one after playing the first Ninja Gaiden for the past four hours...reached the final boss and gave up after being pushed back down to level 6-1. Have any of you guys actually beaten this game legitly?

Negative. In fact, I gave up at 5-3. Stupid birds. I should try it again, though. I do want to eventually get to the boss before moving on to NG2.
