Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles -- Initial Impression.

We're heading over to the Wii for the next game. It's Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, an on-rails light gun shooter. The game is developed by Cavia for publisher Capcom. The game offers the supposed real story that you didn't see originally through the events of the Resident Evil saga. The game covers Resident Evil Zero, Resident Evil remake, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and the end of Umbrella revealed in a new chapter. The game skips the events of Resident Evil: Code  Veronica. In all honesty, I'm expecting a headache inducing story as Capcom tries to make sense of the absolute mess that is the Resident Evil series.  And I'm hoping for some fun light gun gameplay along the way as the game jaunts through the various Resident Evil locations. The expectations are low enough that maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. As always, there is only one way to find out...
