Resident Evil 4 Wii trailer

Friday 13 April 2007
While cute isn't a word we'd normally associate with Resident Evil, it's probably the best way we can describe the Resi 4 Wii Edition trailer that publisher/developer Capcom has just released. Point your eyeshereto see exactly what we mean...

The picture perfect rent-a-bodies and their clinical show home apartment are unarguably easy on the eye, but we were mostly interested in checking out the snippets of game and, yes, it definitely is Resi 4, but with an unmistakably shaky Wii crosshair.

We may have already played both the Gamecube and PS2 versions of Capcom's survival horror masterpiece, but we have no doubt that playing through the Wii version is going to be an absolute pleasure - when a game's as good as Resi 4 we have no qualms about playing it on three different consoles.

We'll have more on Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition for you real soon, but in the meantime why not check outthese screenshots.

I don't have the energy to really hate anything properly. Most things I think are OK or inoffensively average. I do love quite a lot of stuff as well, though.
