I'm not big fan of the RE series, have played a couple of them, but find them a little slow. The graphics and atmosphere, of course, are right up there with the best games out there.

But of the two Wii games in the works (or the ones on 360/Ps3 for that matter) this is the one I'm most stoked about. It may have elements from the "light gun game" genre but it looks super impressive and fun, and pretty lengthy to boot. I new about the game, but only recently got around to reading more about it. Check it out. Any of you guys looking forward to this? The vids are great, too. Supposed to be out this summer, been in development for over a year with a 40+ person team.

I'm in the middle of RE 0 (zero) and stopped playing it last night because of all the back and forth and back and forth and ba.. you get the point. I loved RE4 and blazed through it with a smile all the way. I hope to never play a RE game again that has illogical puzzles and search the dammned house again for the umpteenth time BS. RE4 was how their games should be, always moving forward and never moving back. Now that I have that out of the way, yes, I look forward to it much because it reminds me of gaming I used to play at the arcades with light guns and such, it's linear but so what. Oblivion was open ended and bored the crap out of me after the main quest ended. To me linear has come to represent being right where you need to be in the games' action and story without all of the "what next?" head scratching and searching environments for hours for the next two minutes of story.
