I felt the same. Whenever I got a new shotgun or pistol, I felt like the king of the world...until ammo got sparse really quickly. Though I never did run out, there were times that I felt compelled to use only the knife. There were some seriously nerve-wracking moments in the castle, especially in the large room were the priests seem to spawn endlessly (though they do stop). I would restart if I felt that I used too many bullets and shells. I ended up using up almost all of my grenades and using the rocket launcher in the initial rush of baddies with the shields.

Or maybe I just suck with ammo conservation.

Then again, the last sequence was pretty easy, seeing how I sold everything except for my Blacktail and Striker to get a Broken Butterfly (yes, I missed the free one) and pump it up to 50 damage.

Man, I really need to go back and actually finish Mercenaries!

The Castle did have some nice touches there. At the far end of the Water Room (the giant room with the equally large number of cultists) is a little cubbyhole room. You can run there with Ashley and hole up. Leon seemingly just has to guard the door to ride out the enemies, which is an easy task. Try this, and you'll probably hear Ashley scream. Turn around, and you'll see a couple of cultists in the room. You'll likely get mad that the game just spawns enemies in the otherwise safe room. But it doesn't. They actually drop through trap doors in the ceiling. If you watch, you can see it happen. The room itself is a trick to catch the player. (Mind, once you know of the trick, you can still use the room as a safe house.)


That is exactly how it went for me.
As much as I found it frustrating and I restarted many times in this room, it probably has to be the one of the more memorable moments in the castle.

Also, while I was at week long stay-over at a beach house during the summer, I played RE4 every night while 5 other people would watch me play. In the part outside of the castle where there's flaming catapults everywhere and you have to rise up the cannon, I was trying to take out the guys running the catapults. There was priest in red I was trying to hit at a distance with the pistol.
"I don't think you can hit him"
"Yeah, I don't think I c"
I stopped midsentence because I hit the barrel which engulfed the catapult in a large explosion.

God, I'm going to down and start a new game right now.

It hasn't been officially released on PC yet, has it?

Maybe they'll fix this before it goes gold?

I thought the release was still few months away...
I think it was a Europe release or something?

Speaking of which, does anyone have the link for the site that showed the hacked RE4 demo which unveiled some awesome stuff (i.e. Leon's super powers)?
