The Wii Zapper is out and so are compatible games. But which is the best? Link's Crossbow Training is a bonus game that comes with the Wii Zapper, in the same way that Wii Sports comes with the Wii, so you have no choice but to add the little green elf's first shooter to your game collection. But is it better than Capcom's Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles? VideoGamer.com's Versus series pits the two Wii Zapper compatible games head to head and finds out which has the quickest trigger finger.
Now that Resident Evil 3 remake is less than a month away, here's a look back at the other times Capcom reimagined the 1999 classic game.
Behind AC: New Horizons, this is my 2nd most wanted game this year.
Until Capcom remade RE2, RE3: Nemesis on PS1 was my favourite RE game.
I do think it's easily one of the most underrated RE games. I'm looking forward to fending off REmake Nemesis, especially since I heard his appearances throughout the game will now be somewhat randomized.
Umbrella chronicles is still my favourite it was really cool going back and playing the classics with updated graphics.
I would say I thought Darkside Chronicles was better mainly because 2, Code Veronica and 4 (kind of represented in the game by Leon and Krauser) are my favorite games. But the super shaky camera in Darkside really bothered me...
Numbered entries aside, there have been a whole host of other Resident Evil games, across multiple platforms. Here are some you might have missed.
That was my 1st entry into the series and yes it's very hard but so rewarding. If you don't play it right you can't actually progress If you're low on ammo 4 boss fight on plane or final boss. or if u don't leave ammo for the 2nd character later in the game in item box. I found that out the hard way. Just FYI even though Claire's the main character you play Chris for the final boss fight you better make sure there's enough items for him in the Box or you are fu@#$d
Originally yes, it was going to be a spin off with a different lead, they changed it to Jill to tie it into the series and made it a companion title to 2 instead, cv is a sequel to both lol
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.
because both of them are TOTAL GARBAGE and EQUALLY PATHETIC!!! .....these games do not do any justice to the names Zelda or Resident Evil
Well Umbrella Chronicles is a better game with just the Wii Remote and nunchuck. So Zelda Crossbow training wins the Zapper crown between those two. However I still think that Ghost Squad is the best use of the Zapper.
RE:UC is still a great game and I'm glad it's selling well on the Wii. Can't wait for House of the Dead as well :)
At first i thought the Zapper with Link's Crossbow training was tolerable although the simple wiimote + nunchuck combo was much more accurate. But it was playing UC with the Zapper that finally convinced me I should consider selling the Zapper with LCT as it is actually in fact pretty rubbish.
Fortunately for me I managed to sell my Zapper/LCT for £29.99, poor soul whoever bought that.
its funny how they don't compare how each game actually works with the zapper. tell me this, where the crap is the cursor positioning option in RE:UC? link has it, wtf. I found RE:UC quite unplayable with the zapper, but with out it, its a great game. I hope that my for mentioned option will be a must for any future rail shooters on the wii with zapper functionality.
Both games are great when considered according to their price. For 20 bucks, you can't beat Link's Crossbow training. Umbrella Chronicles is a much more in depth and higher quality game, which the price reflects. The only comparison between the two really is that they CAN make use of the Zapper. The thing with the Zapper though, is that unless you go into it with a mentality of "Getting into it" it's completely meaningless. The feel for the games control-wise is better without it. But the fun factor, if you overlook the awkward clunkiness of the Zapper, can add another element to the game if you don't insist upon a purely serious experience. That's my opinion anyway.
