Great game play, lots of replay value and lots of guns will keep you coming back to RE:UC

Graphics

The game has good visuals in some sections and not so good in other locations. The inside environments look great while the outside sections could use some work. Sometimes blurry or low resolution object will be encountered in the game. But this isn't a huge problem as you will be focused more on the zombies on screen.

 Some of the nice inside location visuals

Game Play

Its basically a rail shooter. But resident evil fans should will enjoy this type of RE. While not a third person shooter like RE4 and 5, UC is enjoyable. You can just pick up a controller and start playing. The game lacks "secret routes" that many Rail shooters have. The hidden files will make you want to play levels over.

Some doors are breakable but dont lead to hidden locations

Value

While some say capcom was "lazy" for making this game, they ended up making a fun game. Like said before graphics vary from location in the game, while the gameplay is fun. It was also great seeing the history of Umbrella. You might also see yourself playing the game over and over because of the hidden files. Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles gets a 8.5 out of 10.

Make sure to play RE:UC before Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles is released

I didnt know they took UC and DC and made them Rail Shooters for the series. Also didnt know what a rail shooter was until I played this... simply awesome... the only way to play Resident Evil Zero by the way!!

I want to buy this game, can't find it where I live though. I love on rails shooters, they're so much fun to play with my brothers or friends. Glad to see it sold very good!

@zzyoshiman

Don't forget Call of Duty. CoD3 and 5 both it a million, and CoD4 is on it's way there.
