Resident Evil 4: 25 Mind-Blowing Things You Didn't Know

RE4 is home to a great many classic characters from Luis Sera to Osmund Saddler but one that often goes overlooked is Ingrid Hunnigan. Hunnigan is Leon's informant and has gone on to be a staple in the series, appearing whenever Leon does.

Despite this she's not all that memorable because all we ever see is her face in those MGS-style codec phone conversations.

However, it turns out that despite being restricted to this little window, Hunnigan does have a full character model. Gamers who broke the camera of the PC version of RE4 discovered that these scenes render character models for everyone involved and just drop them behind the codec frame.

Seems a tad unnecessary but interesting all the same.

Psy has worked on many previews and reviews, long-form editorials (either her own, or supporting as an editor), as a frequent quizmaster and more. Praised for the two-pronged attack of her hard work ethic and light-hearted editing style, Psy is otherwise known as a font of retro video game knowledge which has caused her to rack up many gaming quiz wins.
