    a Wii exclusive

    --Umbrella Chronicles takes you through five main areas of the Resident Evil world, starting with zero, moving on through the mansion incident in the original RE, then progressing to Raccoon city in RE2, diving even deeper into the Nemesis storyline with RE3, and finishing with a new area based on the Umbrella HQ. Newcomers to the series are getting a moody, intense light gun adventure with tons of history and series tidbits sprinkled throughout to keep them in the loop, but what Umbrella Chronicles is really about is giving longtime fans a huge blast of nostalgia.--

    what bothers me is that it's a rail shooter
    but that didn't hurt Killer7 or Panzar Dragoon Orta
    still, not a huge fan of rail shooters
    but I like this as a Wii shooter ... should be fun

    Capcom love screwing with the Resident Evil series. They bounce around systems like a pinball.

    Shame for such a great series that if you want to play it all you probably need a PSX, PS2, GC, PS3/360 and a Wii.

    But this game looks pretty good, even for a rail shooter.

    actually, the more I think about it, all you need is a Wii
    as all Gamecube titles are compatible on Wii

    How do you move forward?

    I've never played resident evil before, but weren't the dogs supposed to be hard. I just remember hearing somewhere the dogs go beserk on you.

    it's a "rail shooter" meaning that the game moves you
    all you have to do is aim and shoot

    but if it wasn't a rail, you'd use the nunchuck to move and the wiimote to aim

    how did you think you moved ?
