Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles trailer makes a mess of your browser
Remember that awesome ad starring Wario from back in the ought eight? Well, Capcom's taken a page straight out of The Big N's playbook and offered up an interactive Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles trailer over at GameTrailers. The trailer doesn't shake things up like Wario did, but it does make a comparable mess. If you've got children in the computer room or folks who cringe at that one scene in The Shining (you know, that one), then you may want to escort them out of the room before clicking through....Done? Good. Now go enjoy yourself some zombie de-faceification.
Hands-on: Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles
If there's one thing to be thankful for in the face of Capcom's steady stream of Resident Evil games, it's that we've all been given a fairly comprehensive education on the undead blight. We can see a zombie coming a mile away, which presents an odd sense of frustration when the game's own characters fail to do the same. No, that person isn't sick. It's a zombie and it's going to bite your neck off. Just shoot it!The Darkside Chronicles, an instantly familiar follow-up to the Wii's Umbrella Chronicles, often hesitates to pull the trigger. It takes a leisurely stroll when least appropriate and it's slow to react when things do get exciting. You might think that your friends Survival-Horror and On-Rails Shooter would get along just fine, but leave them both in the room while you go to the toilet and it's just awkward silence. %Gallery-73897%

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles trailer blasts through Raccoon City
It's been about a month and a half since we've seen anything on Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, and boy has the wait been worth it. This latest trailer not only shows off several memorable areas in Raccoon City, but it also reveals some of the iconic baddies from the Resident Evil universe making a return, all the while making sure to pour on the buckets of blood.
