It is not really correct when I say there was no game which had such an impact on me as Resident Evil 4.
But I say it anyway
This is one of the best games ever made
You play as Leon, who we met the first time in Resident Evil 2 who goes on the mission to save the presidents daughter and discovers a weired cult.
This time it is not with Zombies and Umbrella is not the main evil this time but of course they are still in it. Nevertheless you fight against monsters and bad guys.
I played it on gamecube and as far as I remember you still had the "Tank controlls" but the game was released 2005.
A lot what is normal in games nowadays I saw there for the first time like quick time events for example.
The boss fights were amazing, the atmosphere was intense and I am aware I see it through my nostalgic googles but it was one of the best I remember despite Silent Hill 1.
You had some passages where you have to take care of Ashley but they were not this teasing.
At one point you play as Ashley which was one of the more nerv rubbing scenes as you could not fight back, which is kind of the "new thing" in modern horror games like "Outlast" for example.
The games was very well received by critiques and got rereleased on pretty much all platforms fe it is available for Playstation 4 and XBOX ONE
I did not play Resident Evil 7 yet but till I have I say this one is the best of the whole series especially it went a little downhill after that, especially with the 6 installment which was received relatively poor from fans and critiques.
If you have the time or chance to check out Resident Evil 4 give it a shot
