Forums - Gaming Discussion - Is Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles a good game?

I just finished Dead Space Extraction and I am still in the mood for a good rail shooter.  Before Dead Space, I finished House of the Dead Overkill.  Looking games up, I find Umbrella Chronicles.  With it came some mixte reviews.  Some loved it, saying it is true to the Resident evil roots.  Others say that it's not such a great game, considering the almost no reaction from zombies and some aiming zone issues.  Don't have a lot of money, so want to be sure about this one.  Also, is it long?  I have just finished the story mode on Dead Space and it took only about 6 hours to finish it.  I want something with a little more meat on it.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.

I wouldn't recommend it, as much as I love shooting zombies that game wasn't worth it for me. Most of the times it is slowly paced.

I would recommend Resident Evil 4, if you havent played it.

I liked it but RE4 is better.



I forgot something, RE4 would take you about 10-14 hours to beat, but it has a huge replay value and extras ( Mercenaries, Mission

Ada, Pro Difficulty, etc)

Thanks for the answers. I am now in my 10th hour in Resident Evil 4. I LOVE it. I get from your comments that it may not be worth it. I might try it out if I get it at a discount price.

Its $18 on amazon, that seems good enough.

It is worth it 0_o 18 bucks makes it more so. I think I got mine for 30 after it had been out a bit.

I got mine for $30 also, I guess I should have waited. On the bright side House of the Dead: Overkill is currently 15$, and thats

the highest I've seen it.
