it doesnt look that good in gameplay... i mean all you have to do is shoot them in the head and their dead, you dont get to decided where you want to go unless you shoot open a door which you only get a few seconds to react... the wii zapper could make it alot more better and multiplayer you can shoot along side probably

the only way i would buy it if the single player was really long and online play but it doesnt matter to me with the online play with resident evil

can someone let me know if im missing something important?

The GC ports of RE2 and 3 are rip offs. Just playstation games with Gamecube controllers. Unless your desperate I'd say skip em.

I'm getting it for sure. It's about time we get some excellent FPS (on rails or not) and hopefully it will pave the way for more.

I'll be grabbing it only if it has a sensor-calibration option so you don't need an onscreen crosshair to aim accurately with the Wii Zapper.

(can use the d-pad as the sight or something)

Why would you not get this game? It connects the games and hopefully ends the old plot with it. I'd like something new like re4 did. What has me confused is they skipped 2. Why would they skip 2? It was the best one and I played that one more than any of the others. I'd love to gun my way throught the police station with Leon and Claire. Anyway My friend and I can't wait for this so we can coop throught the game.

True most Rail shooters have no plot but again look at another Capcom game Killer 7. Railer Shooter boring but I played it for the insanely werid plot. Hopefully this game can have both insane action but still have a decent story around it. As for the story, newer gamers may not have played the older Resident Evils. Hopefully they give enough background so that gamers that didn't play the old games know what going on. Overall yeah its a FPS Arcade style shooter which is why I'm buying it, but I'd like to see it follow the story of the games(somewhat) as you go throught.

Without question, yes. I cannot wait. It looks absolutely gorgeous. Proof of what the Wii can do that the entire last-gen could not. And hey...It's Resident Evil!!!! (and prelude to 5 which looks, well...droooooool:D )

i'll probably get this game, but i'm gonna get metriod and re4 wii edition first, then i'll get it if i'll have enough left over for mario galaxy and ssbb (sadly, i'm on a tight gaming budget, and i want to get the best first.)

I'll be buying this game, hands down. I loved 1 and 0 so much I bought the ports of 2,3 and code veronica... (you're better off ebaying a ps2 and those games for it though... it will be cheaper than finding the gamecube games...)

RE 5 isn't slated until 2009 now... by then xbox 360's will be so cheap that I won't even care if they don't release it on the Wii.

Until then, RE4 and UC FTW.

Your dog wants a steak.

HELL NO!!! We've had a Resident Evil game like this on the PS1 and that was terrible and boring. The Wii version will be exactly the same. I'm so greatful that I know what the Wii is for, Nintendo exclusives only.

Games like Mario, Smash Brothers, Metroid and GOD WILLING, a Donkey Kong game (A proper one, not that crappy bang the bongos crap) and a Pilot Wings game...mmmmm Pilot Wings, me wants it.

It'll be just like playing a gungame at the arcade, thats the only reason I have to go to one, and soon that will be gone too. Light gun games are simple but brilliant.

Why does a game need to be "deep" to be fun? This is just one of those few games where you can be content by just living the arcade experience. Shoot as much as you can as fast as you can. If you don't like the idea, thats fine. Just don't buy it.

vashkey

A game certainly dosen't need to be deep to be fun. But I think it's high time we got more deep experinces on Wii. I honestly haven't touched mine in about 2 months. Well, I've gone on the voting channel a couple times since then (literally twice), but that's it. Pumping out $50+ for arcadey games just dosen't feel right anymore.
I wonder if anyone else feels the same way?

Well, Capcom said they were exploring avenues to make it more than just on rail add on top of that a great story, it becomes a great reasons to buy it.

It's really addictive. Ever wondered why there's always a light gun game at arcades etc? This is the same, just cheaper in the long run.

They didn't skip RE2. It's in there.

i will buy it even if it sucks, cause if this does well, then we wil see more re games on the wii, which i MUST HAVE!! the main possibility is that they are going to remake re2, with re4 over the shoulder camera, and wii controls, wiht new weapons and puzzles and stuff, which would be AwESOME!

Rail shooters should be banned from home systems.They want to make them for the arcade, thats fine with me. I prefer a FPS shooter where I have some control of my actions. Or even a third person shooter such as resident evil 4...

You still have to pay 50 bucks for it, though. Maybe even more if you want the Zapper and it ends up not being bundled with Umbrella Chronicles.

Yeah, but IGN said they were rather disappointed with the game. But anyways, chances are I'd still look into it - I really want an arcade experience like this, it should be great.

Hell yes there going to have RE2 in if as well. Had to be the best of all the old games. I'd agree with a remake of 2 as long as it kepts the same plot as the old one. Coop in this game looks amazing, can't wait. Oh and Railer shooters can be done on a console. Killer 7 is a great game that most people never played. The plot was great and the shooting was fun. Capcom has experiance in Rail shooters so I expect the best.

I would, but from the trailers, the gun sounds are terrible! In a game where all you do is shoot, you'd expect some good gun sounds yeah? With true light-gun games like time-crisis, you can get kickback controllers that you hear the controller more so than the gun sound on speakers. Though, the wii zapper is just a holder, it can't make the wii remote kickback everytime you shoot. I've heard the machine gun and regular pistol in the umbrella chronical trailers and they truely are horrible. I'd want something more so along the lines of the original resident evil gun sounds, instead of these no bass fake sounding weapons.

I have 2 questions about this game.

1. Does the Wii Zapper come with it for free? (Even if you live in Australia?)

2. Do you have to play with the Wii Zapper? Or can you just play the game with normal nunchuck and Wii Remote in both hands?

For number 1, probably not but nobodys said anything. Though on #2, you can play with a nunchuck and a wii remote only. All you do with the nunchuk, is use it to limitly look around. The wii remote you just aim and shoot. The zapper is made just for *somehow?* better precision. Plus, the zapper is just a holster, and not another controller.
