Resident Evil's Greatest Hits 0
The new South American setting is just one of three chapters you'll play through in Darkside Chronicles. Darkside Chronicles is another on-rails shooter in Resident Evil's skin for the Wii, and although I was admittedly pretty wary of the game, I rather enjoyed it.

A fun light gun shooter wrapped in the world of Resident Evil 0
My biggest praise for this game is that I would absolutely recommend it to any and all fans of the Resident Evil series. With the exception of Resident Evil 4, I have found it difficult in recent years to replay any of the older games in the franchise. Despite fond memories and countless hours playing all of the old games, I found it increasingly difficult to put up with the games puzzles, inventory system, tank controls, and shooting mechanics (or lack thereof).
