Looks well cheesy, when are people going to realise RE has a HUGE reputation
in survival horror, and ripping off its gameplay mechanics and engine is
giving yourself enough rope imo.

It cannot be a clone if it was already near end of development before RE4
was released.

Not true. Early screenshots were released as well as other information.
Also, some of the RE4 development team could have defected.
So the "clone" could even have preceded the original.

Difficult to tell full game content from screenshots and news snippets.
Compare games as a whole, not partial information. There are hundreds of
games out there that have similar aspects of gameplay doesn't mean to say
they are clones.
Its a bit like Ty Tasmanian Tiger 2, it has a radar, open gameplay and
mission spots. Some people say its similar to GTA by design, but you would
certainly not class it as a clone.

I was thinking the same thing. Didn't play the game much though.
