Yamaoka - Image 1 Famed Japanese game music composer Akira Yamaoka of Konami's Silent Hill fame has announced that he is currently working on a new project. He has expanded his role to overall supervision and is now exercising a great deal of creative control on game design. He has also finished work on the anticipated thriller Silent Hill 5 for the Sony PlayStation 3 and the Microsoft Xbox 360, a game whose musical score he describes as Dolby-quality, but not quite revolutionary.

Resident Evil 4 Wii logo - Image 1


Resident Evil 4 for the Wii has been burning up the Intertubes lately, what with one game update after another. Today we have another bunch of cool images from the game courtesy of Game Watch. You can check 'em out below, but first, a short recap of what we know about the game so far.

Ever since the rumor of it coming to the Wii was confirmed, we've managed to scrape together a few details about how this latest iteration in Capcom's popular horror survival franchise would be like for the Nintendo Wii video games console. Like all Wii games, Resident Evil 4 will utilize the Wiimote for some motion-sensing action. Attacks can be performed by shaking the Wiimote, and it can also be used to aim guns.

Resident Evil 4 will also reportedly be sporting 16:9 widescreen resolution and Dolby Pro Logic II. There's still no word on 480p just yet, but we'll be sure to bring you guys any updates as soon as they surface. For now, enjoy the images.

Wonder how she sounds in Pro Logic II? - Image 1Among the other features that Capcom's Resident Evil 4 the Wii will bring to the Wii (aside from ripping through Los Ganados with the Wiimote rather than a chainsaw controller) are audio and visual. GameStop's product page for RE4 Wii specifically mentions "16:9 widescreen" and "Dolby Pro Logic II". This info is also mirrored in GameFront.de, so the info holds true, so far.

Nope, nothing said about 480p, but who knows? Even if it isn't, them Plagas-plagued villagers look revolting enough even without going to progressive-scan.

GameStop lists a June 25 shipping date for RE4 Wii, with a tag of US$ 30.00. So it's only a couple more months before you see more of Ashley Graham... and she slaps you for doing so.
