hmm, I just unlocked every file in the game, including audio files, who's Tanya anyway?

The third Sister of the Ashford's that kicked the bucket?

When Alexia/Alfred..."...the same IQ, Blood type, age" or she/he just said because
they were probably similar? Then again she probably was just a guinea pig for her
experiments and see the results so she could apply it to her own body...???

Any thoughts?

IIRC, she was somebody Alfred made up, representing Alexia. When he was to talk about Alexia with other people, he'd replace her name with Tanya. I think.

Not sure, but what I do know is that she isn't real... I think...?? ffffff *MADFACE* D<

The explosion in that picture explicity just shows the ruins, its set after the Leon fight. But it should be noted that he isn't as battered as he is when he appears in Seperate Ways. There's no concievable way Krauser's arm could morph back into its flawless, roided up human form.

While I am inclined to agree with you, don't forget that Steve mutated his entire body into a huge green monster, but reverted back to his human self upon death. Compared to Krauser's mutation, Steve's is even more unbelievable and yet Capcom did it anyway. But I don't think they will bring Krauser back. I don't see why they would, if Capcom is indeed trying to take the games in a new direction.

And then there's this pic, that shows Krauser kicking back somewhere on the island, with the explosions going off in the background. It's possibly just after the Leon fight and before the Ada fight but it could be the explosion at the end of the game.

And yes, Krauser "may" have gotten back up. But thats just an unreasonable argument. Wesker was shown to die once, not a multitude of times.

^ Despite the blatant lack of punctuation in the above post...

I've often thought the same thing (About Krauser surviving). He certainly appears dead after fighting Leon and again after fighting Ada. But who's to say that he didn't get back up again.
He wasn't mutilated or ripped apart. Wesker had a gigantic Tyrant claw rip through his body but that didn't stop his 'return'.

Hmm after I beating the game I have been wordering if Krauser really died in 4 I mean when playing though his point of view and the way he changes and become's corrupted in the DSC it gives you this feeling that he could become the new main villan in the series when you think about it in 4 he when playing as Ada and we found out he survived his fight with Leon it makes me wounder just may be he survived his fight with Ada and escaped who knows?

[Andyfer_Ruu]

By the logic that Wesker's meagre appearance in this game was a provocation against his fans, the lack of any particular character in any game could be considered an even greater affront against their particular fans. Wesker has had his time. Let it go.

True, Weskers dead now. We already knew what he was up to.

I'm trying to shoot the damn crane down on the CV part, where you need to kill Alfred, but I shoot all around it, it won't go down. What do I do, I spray that crane with millions of bullets but it will not go down...any idea why?

You have to shoot the joint that holds the crane up, not the crane itself.

Those comparisons are great. Thank you for posting them.

I'm partial to way the environments look in Darkside Chronicles, only because the atmosphere felt more familiar than they ever did in Umbrella Chronicles. The lighting is probably the most surprising, though.

[JcFFx]

Oddly enough, UC is darker than Darkside Chronicles...

Although I'm not sure if I changed any of UC's video settings back in the day (probably didn't, since I usually don't mess with them, but yeah)

[Det. Beauregard]

Interesting comparison, JcFFx. While the areas all look quite similar, the areas in DSC looked to have sharper textures and be much more vibrant. There's more attention to detail in DSC, too, such as in the 10th screenshot where you can see the Raccoon Post Office building clearly as well as the street in front of it (although it looks nothing like it did in RE3).

[Kaneco]

So I just found out you can't copy or move Darkside Chronicles save files, which isn't great as I just got a new Wii. What the fuck, now I have to play through everything again. Ugh, fuck you Capcom/Cavia.

lol, it has to do with games being Wi-Fi capable, blame Nintendo.

I guess it prevents impersonating people online since online profiles
are attached to their save files.

The only way to bypass this, is by soft-modding your Wii.

[JcFFx]

Dunno if this has been done yet.

But yeah, I was recording some DSC footage (... Which I won't be able to use for several months because Capcom is watching youtube ) and I figured I might as well put in UC and get some updated footage now that I got a new capture device.

And for no other reason than to procrastinate (my finals start next week...), I figured I'd do a little comparison.
