So far, I have to admit that Resident Evil; The Darkside Chronicles is looking pretty darn appealing. Between the fact that's it's a follow up to Umbrella Chronicles and that it's on rails ... wait. Actually, the on rails part doesn't sound so good.I'm not really cool with on rails unless I'm playing House of the Dead.
Well, you know what, screw it. These new screens still look really pretty. And Leon and Claire and coming back, and that's ought to be interesting to say the least. As you all know, I'm a recent Resident Evil convert, but after how much I enjoyed Resident Evil 5, I'm going to be interested in anything new in the series that Capcom decides to put out. And yes, I plan to play through Resident Evil 4 very soon -- I know it's the best thing since God made cupcakes.

Knowing your tastes in games (at least based on your blogs), if you liked RE5 you'll fucking love RE4. Go play that shit right now.
It's so worth the time.
Oh right Darkside Chronicles, this looks to be shaping up nicely. I do like anything that further explains the RE story even if it is on-rails.
I would recommend that you play the Wii Version of Resident Evil 4. It has superior controls to the GCN and PS2 games, gets rid of button mashing events and has the extras from the PS2 version.
I'm really excited for Darkside Chronicles. Umbrella Chronicles was great and it looks like they're trying to embarrass that game with how good the sequel will be. You have to play these games with a friend...it's a blast.
Yeah I was surprised how much gameplay I got from UC. I think 17 hours for my multiplayer file and another 8 or so for my singleplayer.
You can unlock 2 player mode in those levels by playing through them though, which makes you wonder even more why they made them single player. I hope they don't pull that shit again.
to the writer:
I had never met anyone that had played the 5th RE BEFORE the 4th, you musta had an AWESOME experience.... if you plan on going back to playing RE5, DO NOT play RE4 on the wii, for me at least, it makes RE5 painstakingly unbearable I mean the running and the turning in re5 is so unnecessarily complicated that you'll wonder why they changed it at all... oh and you'll appreciate actual fear, mikami is a much better director than takeuchi and Ueda
