OK, I’ll be upfront, I prefer“bad” videogame actingto “good” videogame acting. The voice work in games likeShenmueand the originalResident Evilis endlessly entertaining to me, where the polished, Hollywood caliber stuff of theGTAgames just leaves me cold.
That’s why these two newResident Evil: The Darkside Chroniclestrailers make me so happy. In the first vid, Claire and Leon openly agree tonotpull guns on each other, then become mildly alarmed at the site of multiple undead cannibals. Things get even better in video two, where (spoiler!) the late, great Steve Burnside manages to rattle off four one liners in two seconds.
Yep, that’s a Resident Evil game alright.
As usual, the graphics forRE:DClooks fantastic and the classicRE2andRE:CVscenarios continue to bring back fond memories. On-rails or not, this game is legit (trust me on this,I’ve played it). Hit the jump for the videos and see for yourself, and look forRE:DCin stores later this year.
