We have two sources of Weskeriffic Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles updates for you, to celebrate this most auspicious of made-up Resident Evil-related holidays (right after the Feast of Tofu and Unlocking Week). First, Famitsu has posted a completely Wesker-focused update, which includes some new screens of the playable Wesker, and not much new information, other than that he's kind of a badass.

Second, the official Japanese Resident Evil page has updated with a new trailer (click on the "Movies" button, then the one marked "new", which focuses on-- you guessed it-- ~~Hunk~~ Albert Wesker. A very happy Wesker Day to all! Put on your traditional sunglasses!

A playable Wesker is good news. Finally we get to see what the smart@ss can do in action.

Since we are on the topic of REUC does anyone know if the game will be as gory as previous RE games I.E. heads exploding from the famous head shot. I have yet to see this in a screen shot or a video.

People have been acting lucky that the zombies have started to seem to actually recoil from being hit by fire. I don't know if they will have exploding goo or not. There is talk from developers about how one has to hit the 'right part of the head' for a headshot in this game, so maybe it hasn't happened yet.

Never played a RE game before RE 4 Wii Edition. (See, more companies than just Nintendo have benefited from the Wii's success!) and I am definitely going to get this game. The Zapper will rock with this me-thinks.
