    Is Rodrigo even going to be in the CODE: Veronica scenario?

      He has to be, he is the one who captures and then releases Claire from the prison.

        They can always change that to some nameless faceless guard.

          Yes, but doesn't "Game of Oblivion" start the moment Claire meet Steve, that is, some time after Rodrigo release her from the prison?

            That's what I thought.

              He'll probably be in the introduction scene and not mentioned again.

                I liked Rodrigo. They better not exclude him. Maybe he'll be in an extra scenario with Chris???

                  I'll be surprised if Chris turns up to be playable in the game.

                    I remember on Steve's Twitter (such a reliable source!) that he said there were explosions that "released" him from his cell. Perhaps Claire is released in the same manner?

                    Don't forget that they've already changed a lot of rooms around from their original versions, such as the prisoners' barracks from CV (now with the whole fenced-in computer area which makes no sense but was obviously designed so they wouldn't have to redo most of the prison), and Irons' office and torture room from RE2. Would you really put it past Capcom to change the area where the original CV starts into a huge cell block that contains both Steve and Claire?

                    I would seriously doubt it if Rodrigo makes an appearance.
                    Mass production? Ridiculous!

                      I've managed to avoid just about all the media and info about this game, since watching the original trailer. I've learned my lesson after kinda spoiling UC and RE5 (I saw WAY TOO MUCH of those games before playing them).

                      Not long to wait now!
                      17th in the US.
                      26th in Australia.
                      27th in Europe (that's actually 2 days after Aus. in real time).

                      I'm glad I region-freed my Wii. I think I'll import.

                      Some shopping options: All prices in US$ to avoid confusion.

                      Playasia (Asia)- DSC US version- $55

                      Play.com (Euro)- PAL DSC- $50
                      - PAL Zapper bundle- $65

                      JB HiFi (Aus.)- PAL DSC- $68
                      - PAL Zapper bundle- $82

                            I liked the PAL one. It's so different than others. And, it wasn't a picture that we've already seen (like the NA).

                              PAL boxart is nice but too white and bright for a game titled "DARKSIDE Chronicles"
