Umbrella Chronicles, a fun rental

I'd say this game is only worth renting. It's fun but I imagine shooting
the zombies will get old soon enough. It's great for people who are into
Resident Evil as you get more background on Wesker & get to revisit some
areas you've seen before. The lack of control can be frustrating at times
since you don't always have much time to shoot breakables trying to find
secret files. I'd agree with reviews that are in the 7/10 range. Good just
not great but definitely worth at least a one week rental. Smile

Grrr, I hate rail-shooters like this. WTF didn't capcom do RE5 for the
wii?!?

Ok, well it's capcom. Most of the time they seem figure out the most
sensible action, and do exactly the opposite. [Seriously, capcom has
some great developers, but their management....]
