Resi 4 Infects GameCube in March
Capcom's incredible zombieless sequel is on its way to GameCube in the new year.
Nintendo's GameCube has seen some lean months recently, but the game that has still managed to create a buzz for the console is Resident Evil 4.
The game is set a few years after the events of the first Resident Evil and lead character Leon Kennedy is looking for the president's daughter, who has been kidnapped and taken to Europe.
Along with the new setting come major changes to the series' gameplay system. Gone are the static camera angles, which have been replaced by a more dynamic system giving you a better view of the action.
There's also a wealth of new moves - swimming, kicking, jumping and more - available to you that are activated following on-screen prompts.
Zombies are no more too. The new baddies are more intelligent than the undead of previous series instalments, and they're more devious and perseverant than their life-deprived predecessors.
Resident Evil 4 will be released for GameCube on 18 March, after the game hits the US on 11 January.
