Resident Evil 4 is the game that's best remembered for revolutionising the Resi formula by introducing the over-the-shoulder camera and shifting into action-horror.

It's also remembered as the game that had hero Leon S. Kennedy frequently escorting Ashley Graham, a teenage girl who would constantly scream Leon's name whenever she was being carried away by an enemy whenever players turned their back on her for a second.

It might come as a surprise, then, that Ashley got her own playable section in this horror classic.

It's a brief section that's comprised of few simple puzzles and QTEs. But it's Ashley's defencelessness which makes this sequence compelling.

With no means of fending off the handful of tough enemies that pursue her, this segment is an effective return to pure horror within Leon's more action-focused campaign.
