Wario Land: Shake it would like to see you in a different thread....




but seriously, that trailer did take the game from a "wait and see" to a "potential buy".

I remember the Wario Land one. It wrecked youtube, right?

that would be the one.

I would have inked to it, but I was too lazy to look for it.

Could be Legend of Barry or Krauser May Kry.  Just something badass.

A game featuring Krauser would be excellent, as long as the same dynamics from RE4 apply (the cool bow and his transforming hand). Wouldn't be much of a horror game with those powers, but would serve the action shift of the franchise well.

Hay, the bow/arrow combo could make sense in an isolated jungle setting.  Some Rambo mixed with the suspense from Predator.

IGN gave it an 8.1

Thankfully the reviewer, while not liking the 'shakey-cam' POV, didn't rake the whole game over the coals for it.

Craig is usually more level headed than Matt or Bozon. They like to take on aspect and ride that tangent into the ground.

Hmm...the score was about where I'd thought it would be, and as expected my biggest problem with the game since it was announced (the shaky cam) turned out to be as significant a problem as expected.  It takes a lot to make me motion sick, but I have to admit this game would probably do it due to trying to focus on one object while the camera is continuously swaying (same problem I have with reading in the car).  I guess Darkside Chronicles will remain where it is on my gaming list: right behind Dead Space Extraction.

I kind of wish they went a little further and added RE4 and Degeneration levels. Also, this game has a very low Valentine quota. Not sure I can rightly buy this.

LULZ @ Resident Evil as survival horror. Save the genre Shattered Memories....

I was under the impression that there were snippets of RE4 in the game, or is that my misunderstanding of what the game contains?

The game is bookend-ed by two missions where you roam around a South American village with Krauser and Leon pre-RE4, which is probably what you're thinking of unless there's a secret mission we don't know about yet.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking of. I just assumed there were more than two missions. Would be nice to see more missions about it. Though I have a feeling that unless this one completely bombs we'll see another game in the Chronicles series covering RE4 and 5.

Whether this game bombs or not.. id rather just see re5 and 6 come out next (on my platform of choice) than another spinoff... just saying.

I'd rather have *insert Shinji Mikami horror title here*.

If RE5 proved something to me, it's that when you get rid of the founding father the new development team runs out of ideas.

Ho-hum.

Shinji Mikami produced a hell of a game in RE4, but essentially took the horror out of Resident Evil.

Leon's darkest, hairiest secrets revealed.

I forgot it came with a shirt.  Well TOO BAD, cuz i've had a cold since yesterday and probably won't play it until the weekend, meaning this shirt has just been promoted to MUCUS RAG.  Swine Veronica virus be damned.

He added production values rivaling Nintendo's best from a third party who is now a giant Wii troll.

The stuff in the "facility" (?) with the mummy-wrapped guys (which you could only hurt by multiple sniper-rifle shots on specific spots) creeped me out big time...  scary, scary...
