I have to agree with Pro. My nephew was able to beat the solo Wesker missions by HIMSELF.

Clearly, one player UC is do-able. You just have to put all of your might into it.

Hell, ALL on rails shooters are impossible to beat one player. Try beating HotD 2 by yourself...

Turn down the difficulty, upgrade your guns, practice hitting the weak spots, suck it up, etc.

Any of the aforementioned will help you get through this game better.

See, the whole weak spot thing is irritating to. I'm not sure what the hit detection is on this game, but sometimes you hit the monster in the face and it does not do a critical hit! Shotgun and SMG ammo is too scarce to compensate for the fact that half the dead-on shots don't register.

I've survived the whole game without ever hitting a weak point.

They ARE hard to find, though.

I mean weak spots on bosses too, for example the slug queen. You have to shoot the mouth, but half the time it doesn't register.

Weak spots are no longer heads. It's this tiny spot of the FOREHEAD. Sorta cool, because truthfully, headshots are way too easy with the Wii.

Yeah, you need to get brainshots, not headshots.

And I don't completely suck. D:  I've beaten everything by myself on "easy" except for those two guys with the weird sunglasses/visor things in one of the Wesker missions.

Kane and Lynch proves that headshots are not meant to kill unless you hit them in a certain spot, your bullet can magically go through their head at times, so the same should be true for ALL GAMES.

ShyGuy can you please elaborate, because i'm finding it really hard to figure out how someone can have so much trouble with a simple point and shoot game. Shoot certain points on the screen for victory, game win. The zombie headshots are really satisfying, the point is right in the middle of their forehead and they go splat.

Ya brainshots are pretty awesome.  You can really hull face with brainshots and the pistol.  

I beat the game all the way through on easy. I don't know if I'll have the patience for the normal. The hardest boss is not the final boss fortunately.

Do what I did: bring the missile launcher with you and hit them when they're together. Two shots, if I remember correctly.

I've came back to the game, toughing it out through the worm boss fight (hardest part of the first two games/chapters IMO.)  The hit zone on the zombies doesn't bother me as much as that boss. Maybe I just need a bigger television. Re-playing the earlier levels to build up my shotgun's stats helped too.

Fun Fact:  The title theme from Mario Kart Double Dash is included among the game's music streams.

first of all, those pictures of made of solid gold WIN and secondly, am i a bad person for not playing this game more than 5 minutes after i bought it?

i popped it in, got to the first boss, my batteries died, i shut it off. i bought so my gf could play with me since she's starting to get into games more (cuz of me) and she likes the creepiness of the RE games but we havent had a chance to shoot zombies together like a loving couple should. Still though, you'd think i'd play it more for myself but i just haven't.. i sorta forgot i had it. with trying to finish mario galaxy and now NMH..

So is this thread now about everything Resident Evil related? Anyone else think RE3 is better than RE2? I like the environments in the game better and it just feels cooler. Weapon upgrade type stuff sucks though. A shame they didn't put RE3s best places into Umbrella Chronicles, like that awesome park near the end. I think i'd welcome an UC2 with stuff from that and also RE4. Though it would basically feel like RE4 itself with its controls, so maybe a little bit pointless. Most of those "new" areas in UC were really uninspired though and pretty lame, maybe they could put some effort into some new environments instead.
