A 4X4 cube, also called Rubik's Revenge, can be solved pretty easily by anyone who can solve the 3X3 cube in a minute or so. This cube does not have a enter piece attached to the core. Instead, it has four center pieces per side which an occupy any center slot anywhere in the cube. So one has to solve all the centres around the cube first, keeping in mind the colour scheme. Then the edges need to be paired up. Once all the edges are paired up, it can be solved like a 3X3 cube until you get Parity errors. These are basically situations which you cannot get on the3X3 but you get them almost all the time on the 4X4. There are two-

#1 one paired edge piece is flipped. To solve this case, you hold the cube so that the flipped edge is facing you and do the algo-MR2 B2 U2 ML U2 MR' U2 MR U2 F2 MR F2 ML' B2 U2

#2 two opposite edges are switched. To solve this case, hold the cube so that one edge is facing you and the other away from you and do the algo- MR2 U2 MR2 u2 MR2 MU2

you need to have enough knowledge to solve the 3 by 3 before the 4 by 4. first, you solve the centers, then the edge pieces. for the video, look at http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=5o8Vdn0LeGo.

Is a 4x4 Rubik's cube harder than a 5x5 Rubik's cube?

No, not really - at least not for me (I'm 52yo) I think that the differences between the 4x4 and 5x5 are slight. It's one of those things where "if you can solve a 3x3 you can solve a 4x4 and if you can solve a 3x3 and a 4x4 you can solve a 5x5. The hardest part comes with the edges - there's some weird manuevers you have to do to get the edges right and oddly enough the 5x5 is easier on the edges than the 4x4 because the 5x5 has a center edge for each color and that makes it easier to get matches. It did for me anyway. But once I learned the 4x4, the 5x5 wasn't too hard to pick up.
