    Hands-on with Wii Zapper and Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles - Wii

    It's Resident Evil, but not as we know it.

    I think that's going to have to be an investment in 2 zappers,

    looks like a great game, hopefully not as bad as Dead Aim

    ... I couldn't help feeling slightly bored with the game’s slow pace
    I don't think Zombies are well known for their sprinting abilities
