Resident Evilllll... 4!!, They're not zombies! Options

EBgames called me and I went out there to pick it up with the quickness. I don't know if you had to reserve it or not but mine came with a "The Making of Resident Evil 4" DVD. Yes, DVD.
I didn't get into much of it since I kept dying at the village. The enemies are smarter than your smartest zombie. These guys really gang up on your ass. Graphics are without a doubt superb. Controls are meh. It's odd since they use the same control scheme from previous games. But you can shoot with precision at least. So far the voice work is ok. Nothing too cheesy yet.
More later.

Upon diving deeper into the game:
Weapons are a blast to use. The shotgun is only the tip of the iceberg. I bought a sniper rifle and I had fun with that. The reloading animation is awesome in itself.
One cool addition: QTE. Now if you played Shenmue then you'll know what I'm talking about. These are thrown at you at the most unlikely parts of the game. The intro showed some QTE in a knife fight. So that should be interesting. If you don't know, it stands for Quick Timer Events. Basically you gotta press some buttons that flash on the screen. Do it too late and you die or whatever comes close.
Riel's right, the action is intense!!
I'll be playing this game for awhile....

EDIT: I forgot to mention... the buttons you have to press for the QTE's are a bit random. More fun for everyone!
