MULTIPLAYER
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles
While the screen can get a bit busy at times while playing two-player co-op, it's still good fun. Certainly it's no worse an experience than playing on your own. You don't both use the same set-up either, so one could be using a Wii Remote on its own, while the other is playing using a Wii Remote and Nunchuck strapped to a Wii Zapper. Again, sound zombie action for quick bursts rather than a weekend-long session. Perfect for post-pub gaming.
Link's Crossbow Training
Not much to talk about here as Crossbow Training is a single-player game only. What you do get is a 'take it in turns' game mode for up to four players, where you can see who is the best shot in Hyrule. Sadly there's no co-operative or direct head-to-head game modes on offer.
Verdict:
With Link collapsed on the ground and rapidly losing blood, Umbrella Chronicles casually walks towards his helpless victim and head stomps him into oblivion. Nice.
FINAL SCORE
If you've got a Wii Zapper you'll automatically have Link's Crossbow Training. But that doesn't make it the best on the rails shooter available on the console. Unfortunately compared with Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, Nintendo's brave green elf ducks for cover. The funniest thing? Both games are better played without the Wii Zapper, so there's no need to get Crossbow Training at all. Umbrella Chronicles isn't perfect, but it wins this battle hands down.
