The Dark Side Chronicles Debut Trailer, RE GC ports to Wii

[Jill's Boob]

Yeah, this is RE2-era Leon & Claire...when they were both somewhat believable characters. I can't wait to see how they're butchered in an attempt to make them appeal to today's video game audience.

If you don't know what I mean, then play RE2 again, and then play subsequent games where:

- Claire outruns gatling gun fire from a helo, before jumping into a room where she has an old fashioned Mexican standoff with armed guards. To defeat them, she drops a pistol and then defies the laws of physics to make her body fall faster than the gun to catch it and fire off a perfectly placed shot to detonate an explosive barrel. Pretty far removed from your standard drunken college student.
- Leon does parkour; flips up, over, and through lasers; jumps across chasms and catches the other side one-handed; falls through a trapdoor and defies the laws of physics to deploy a grappling hook upward at a rate faster than the descent of his body; etc.

So yeah, in "Darkside Chronicles" I fully expect to see Claire & Leon doing ninja flips from building to building while sniping zombie-piloted AH-1's while sharing a plate of spaghetti like "The Lady & the Tramp."

dammit you stole my ida for next weeks comic...

seriously though i have even hopes for this, not high, not low, even hopes. if it sucks it sucks, at least we have soem nice claire eye candy for now!

If this game is ALL re2 based, then I have absolutely no problems at all. They can put anything re2 related, on any platform they wish, I'll always be a happy camper.

Hope we get to see Irons again, dunno, maybe chasing the Mayor's daughter around the precinct? ...or maybe have Kendo in it a bit longer this time around.

[riderkid]

no kendo we saw him in the screen shot as a zombie happy meal, which is not as great as the kielbasa happy meal...and no that was not a gay joke, i brought my mom a larrge fries a sweet tea and a bit of polish kielbasa from a deli i went to

Game looks pretty good but Claire's redesign is atrocious.

Both ;)

And no JcFFx, you're not alone. I like her new design too. I'm just curious why did they change the color of her shorts.

I'm not a huge fan of the total clothing redesign for Claire. The jeans really make it sort of eh. But the rest out of the outfit isn't bad imo. She herself still looks AMAZING so thankfully icons will be made and I will be a happy camper. 8D

I really do no get the idea behind making her shorts blue jeans, instead of the reddish pink color they were originally. Hell even in REegeneration, they kept the same design. So why change it now? And I'm not feeling the boots. Claire looks like she just left a white trash trailer park.

*nerdgasm*


That looks so damn awesome. Now I definitely need to get a Wii. Only question now is, should I hunt down the GameCube REmake, a GC memory card and a Wavebird controller, or should I just wait for REmake to be released on the Wii?


Btw, Claire's hi-res ass looks so damn hot in those biker shorts:

Damn...

Oh SNAP! She's showin' some tummy now, too! She looks really sexy right here.

lol i hear ya , i have to say that this is the best looking game i've seen on the Wii , i truly thought that it wasn't possible to achive something like this on Wii , here's hoping that they'll do a RE2 Remake on the Wii with that graphic engine it would be insane.

I agree. It looks nice! Can't wait to see Ada.

[nemesiswontdie]

looks like my wii is gonna be pretty busy when these 3 games come out for it.

[riderkid]

me too.

i dn think i can wait, luckily i have umbrella chronicles in the mail

[xfactor]

I just read the ranting news on rehorror ...LOL

You point the little wiimote at the screen, and you press A. For everything. Attacking, picking up weapons, opening doors, whatever happens in the game you can only respond the same way over and over. And there’s no chance for anything different to happen

Obviously someone didn't play UC before. Firing is done by pressing B button, while some QTE is done by waggling the wiimote or pressing A and B too, not to mention the analog using as limited shifting of the view.

[mamock116]

i agree about the boots making Claire look like white trash

[Jill's Boob]

I think they were probably going for *sarcasm* with their simplistic analysis.

I think they were probably going for *sarcasm* with their simplistic analysis.

I am ok if they ignored the QTE and the analog control part if they simplify the analysis, but its wrong to say A is used for everything, since B is basically what you be pressing throughout the game. A is just for the non-firing element, which constitute like 15% of the game.

[Dot50Cal]

Fantastic. So now, rather than having the framerate be 10 during 30% of UC, we have it for 100%. Absolutely GRATE.
