Here are two brand new gameplay videos for Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles! This game is a follow up to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, and is also an “on rails”, arcade style shooter. You don’t control the characters movement, you just shoot, reload, pickup items, and use your knife. Perfect for the Wii and the Wiimote. Darkside Chronicles takes you through the stories of Resident Evil 2, probably the best Resident Evil game ever, and Resident Evil: Code Veronica. Check out another video below!

This is the latest trailer for Capcom’s Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, from E3 2009. This game is the followup to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, and takes us through the story of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica.

The graphics are updated and the game is “on rails”, but watching this trailer just gives me a nostalgia attack. Growing up during the “Playstation era”, Resident Evil, especially Resident Evil 2, is one of my favorite games of all time. Sure, it’s not a remake, like many fans want, but it’s enough…for now.

The Darkside Chronicles hits the Nintendo Wii sometime towards the end of the year!

Dead Rising 2 E3 2009 Trailer Here’s a little something for those who cannot stand to wait one more day for E3 2009. It’s an early trailer for Dead Rising 2!

With Dead Rising 2 officially announced back in February, the masses have been eagerly awaiting it’s arrival. I’m pretty sure we can all assume the game will be a success. People love killing zombies, and by looking at the pictures and trailers already released, you can see this game is all about that.

There is no official release date yet, but there is talk about multiplayer. Imagine you and a couple friends, running around, slaying zombies, fighting for survival. That sounds like a good, family fun. Watch the trailer below, and be sure to check back for more E3 2009 coverage all week!

Here we have a nice Street Fighter tattoo. Also seen here, is an idiot. Any clever geek would have come up with something better than the “hairdouken”. I would have went with the “hairyuken”. A shoryuken can dodge a hadouken all day long.

Chris Redfield Resident EvilResident Evil 5 has shipped 4 million units across the world already. It’s only been out in the US since Friday, less than 4 full days ago. Now, shipped doesn’t mean sold, shipped just means how many units Capcom has sent out to stores and sellers. I doubt it’ll take long for the game to actually sell 4 million, if it already hasn’t.

Personally, I haven’t played the game yet. I’m kind of scared to. All the bad reviews are making me think this game might ruin my love for the Resident Evil franchise. I agree with most reviews, that RE5 is pretty much just RE4 with new graphics slapped over it. The demo was decent, but…

Capcom announced Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles for the Wii, as well as a port of the original Resident Evil, and Resident Evil Zero for the Wii.

I would much rather have a Resident Evil 2 remake, but I can’t deny that this trailer and these pictures are getting me excited. Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles is a follow up to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, and it takes place during the story of Resident Evil 2, and features Leon and Claire as the main characters; just like the actual game did. It’ll be “on rails”, an arcade shooter, not an open world game. The graphics look amazing. They’re probably not the best thing you’ve ever seen, but just looking at them, while remembering Resident Evil 2 on the PS1, this is amazing.

Capcom will be draining the wallets of many die hard Resident Evil fans. Resident Evil 5, Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero ports, and now Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. Not to mention Street Fighter 4.

Check out the trailer above and look at these beautiful pictures below…

Resident Evil Wii
So, as Resident Evil 5 comes out for the PS3 and Xbox 360, the Wii gets some zombie action of it’s own. Well, sort of.

Capcom has announced that they will port Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero to the Wii. The original Resident Evil was already ported to the Gamecube and Resident Evil Zero was an exclusive Gamecube game. Resident Evil Zero’s Wii port has been out in Japan for a while now, and it’s finally being released to the rest of the world. Both Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero have been refitted to support the Wiimote and Nunchuk. I’m assuming that means they’ll both have an aiming system like Resident Evil 4 did on the Wii. If not, then there really isn’t any point in buying them; you can just play the Gamecube versions with the Wii.

So, two down, one to go. Many Resident Evil fans, including myself, want a full blown remake of Resident Evil 2. It’s easily my favorite of all the RE games so far, closely followed by RE4; and it needs a makeover with current generation consoles. It looks like we’re getting our wish…
