I wish I can believe that but we all know Nemesis never appeared in RE2 although RE2 does take place the same time as RE3 and it would be interesting seeing Nemesis chasing Leon Kennedy around but that will never happen unfortunately.

What the heck was that monster at the end of the trailer? If I didn't know any better, I'd say it's probably that drug lord Leon and Krauser are after and I won't be surprised if I hit the mark right there.

Best trailer ever, watch it to the end, just watch and see what happens.

PS: Aim for the head.

Epic... I love the effects of the trailer.

And lol @ Krauser saying "Are you okay?" to a zombie... xD

It really is, I loved it.

And yeah that was pretty insane hahaha xD at least he has the excuse that he's never seen one before. 😛

I think it would've been more humorous if Krauser asked the zombie "Are you hungry?"

Also, didn't Claire ask a zombie if it was alright in Resident Evil 2?

🤨 I found the bonus costume one more interesting.

The trailers in general for this game need more Ada though.

Leon and Krauser's Resident Evil 4 outfits look awesome, Claire's alternate outfit is hot, Steve Burnside as a cowboy is awful, and that red jacket Leon is wearing is okay I guess.

MOTHER WESKER!!! 😠

Gamestop told me the Darkside Chronicles will be out this Tuesday and they said they don't have it. They said they won't have it until tomorrow. I asked what the heck happened and they answered "The game will be put on shelves today and will be sold tomorrow." I then asked why they didn't tell me that before and they said "Well that's the day we told you we'll have it." I told them they could've said that before because I was looking forward to buying it today. Now I have to wait tomorrow!

I tell you, Gamestop can be sometimes stupid. They could've said the day they're gonna sell. What the heck did they think I was saying when I asked them "When will you have the game?" Morons.

I've been looking forward to this game eversince it was first announced and I thought I was finally gonna get it today but sadly not. If you were a Resident Evil fan, you would understand. 🙁

i am a resident evil fan.

Hahaha

Well I just got the game today and I gotta say, I'm very impressed with what Capcom has done with this. Umbrella Chronicles eat your heart out.

Just got it for Xmas. Will review it after Im done with it.

Same here. Am gonna wait 'till I play some more L4D2 with friends who just got the game for Christmas before I actually start playing RE: DC myself, though.

Since it's the Wii and all, I guess I'm kinda surprised that Darkside Chronicles actually has teh co-op mode. Look forward to playing that with someone in the future.

At first I thought the Cloverfield-style camera would be a good thing but I was wrong. Because of the screen shaking like a mad British nanny, it's hard trying to hit the weak spots on some of the bosses. I prefer a challenge but even I can tell the difference between a challenge and frustration and the camera is frustration.

Other than the camera, everything else appears to be good although the way they altered the story in RE2 and Veronica in Darkside Chronicles may confuse some fans to those games. Like for example

Spoiler:
I never recalled Alexia being the one who killed her brother Alfred

I guess you may have a point, but it still wasn't that hard... *just played the game from start to finish after not touching the box since it was opened on Christmas*

My main problem was sometimes not being able to react fast enough to pick up the items/ammo/gold laying around, but since it's a typical rail shooter, I can forgive the whole camera style that was involved.

The main con about the game for me was that it didn't really cover up Leon's past with Krauser (among other things) as much as I was hoping it would...
And Manuela is just an annoying character for most of the game until she helps you against her fool of a father.

All and all though, good game, but not really quite what I was expecting... And once again, poor Steve.

Oh.. I wasn't aware that there were two bonus missions with Krauser which you could unlock at first. *just played 'em after discovering on gamefaqs* They're ridiculously hard too compared to the rest of the game, even on Very Easy.

Apparently it's the same as the last two levels of the game, but with internal dialogue from Krauser during gameplay and cutscenes, showing how obsessed he becomes with the virus and how he wants that power for himself, especially after one of his arms gets critically injured, which then he secretly turns to Wesker to become stronger after becoming useless to the army and considers Leon a coward for wanting to wipe out the virus completely... Typical.

FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU- you spoiled it for me, haha. RAAAAAGE!

I heard about the extra missions, and athough I haven't finished the game yet, but so far I'm enjoying it a lot.
