DESCRIPTION
Featuring classic environments from earlier releases in the series, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles allows gamers to the explore mansions, underground testing facilities, and hospitals of games past on a next-generation console. Players lead Jill Valentine, Billy Coen, Rebecca Chambers, or Chris Redfield through each viral landscape, using the Wii-Remote or Zapper against a never-ending barrage of zombies and other unsavory enemies. While out in the infected zone, gamers move on a path, and can adjust their field of vision to view unseen areas with the D-pad. Looking closely is essential, as key information is often within each interactive scene. This chapter in the Resident Evil franchise is playable alone or with a friend, and gamers may replay any mission to earn higher rankings and more effective weaponry. ~ Gracie Leach, All Game Guide

“Not the best rail shooter I ever played, and had some english translation errors in the scripting, but it was really good. The variety of weapons, the hidden items to find, and the multiplayer was excellent.
One big side of the game was it kind of auto locks on to enemies which sucks when you're trying to find everything in a level by keeping a monster going.”

“Finally found a scary moment in Umbrella Chronicles - Hunk's side story. The radio banter is intense, even though it sticks with a 'game over, man' vibe.”

“Umbrella Chronicles is a game I could play for hours if my Wiimote didn't drain batteries so quickly. The graphics are beautiful and the voice acting is top notch. Dialogue is well placed in lulls in the action so as not to distract the players from incoming danger. Aiming can be a bit frustrating at times and sometimes action commands will fail whether you perform them correctly or not. The Wii Blaster, I've found, makes the "shake" action command next-to-impossible without killing the person next to you, and I had to quickly discard the blaster. Throwing grenades can be tricky if you don't have a Nunchuck. Despite it's shortcomings with the aiming system, Umbrella Chronicles is great, especially if you can't get through a real Resident Evil game but still want to play.”

“It really is nice to go through the old school PS1 Resident Evil games in a new manner, and the game plays well, including co-op. The Whesker missions are also great, revealing new plot devices and storylines”

“Nothing much to report, except that the game becomes quite a bit harder once you reach the "Resident Evil 3" area. The single-player only missions also appear to be quite difficult,...”
