  Resident Evil Arcade style!

  Pros: Lot's of action, good graphics, great two-player game!

  Cons: Missing areas, some textures up close, no online multiplayer

  Summary: A great game for fan's of the Resident Evil series and arcade games. When looked at for the type of game it is, not what it isn't, it is a hell of a lot of fun. Lot’s of replay value and two-player co-op fun. I am 43 and my son is 18. We have played this game through and are going back for more any chance we can. There is tons of zombie blasting fun for Mature game player's.

  Not horrible, but disappointing

  Summary: I hadn't played RE4 until getting it for the Wii and this was a major let down from that game. Part of that has to do with the graphics not being nearly as good as RE4, but the most disappointing thing to me is that I think this game would have been a lot better than it is (but still not as good as RE4) if it wasn't an on rail shooter. The automatic movement of your character in the game is really annoying in a lot of places. Perhaps it was done intentionally, but I found exploring areas to find stuff in the game to be much too hit and miss for my liking- forcing me to randomly scan the screen with my remote aiming icon and frantically pushing the A button in an attempt to grab items before I was railed off to the next location. Despite the graphics, I think this game might have been worthy of an 8 or 8.5 rating if your movement was taken off the rails or you were at least given a bit more control over your movement.
