Line 22:
*** The fact that he was one of the games creator's [[Creator's Pet|favorite character]] was also a big contributing factor to the decision as well.
** Manuela has built up a growing fanbase of her own. Though sadly, she may never appear in another game despite the game's canon ending saying {{spoiler|she survives and is taken into U.S. government custody}}. However {{spoiler|her return is not completely out of the question}}. She has a wonderful singing voice which fans are very fond of. To top it off, she managed to accomplish {{spoiler|what Alexia could not in her life-long mission: become one with the T-Veronica virus.}}
* [[Even Better Sequel]]: Darkside Chronicles certainly seems to be the better of the two Chronicle games in the eyes of fans. Whilst the first game was good on its own merits and added more depth for [[Evil Is Cool|Albert Wesker]], Darkside Chronicles had improved graphics, widened the range of headshots (except on Hard and Very Hard difficulty to add to the experience), remastered and remixed some of the most beloved music pieces in the series, had a well developed, original story with a more complex villian in [[Anti-Villain|Javier Hidalgo]], a good supporting character in [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Manuela Hidalgo]], and the settings revolved around [[Resident Evil 2]] and [[Resident Evil Code: Veronica]]; the former arguably being the most beloved game in the series and the latter being cult favorite amongst fans.
* [[Follow the Leader]]: The Titles are imitations of [[Cosmetic Award|Xbox 360's achievements/PlayStation 3's trophies.]]
* [[Game Breaker]]: Having a second person playing turns the game into a joke as the enemies increase in neither volume nor toughness to compensate for the fact that they are being shredded by ''twice as much lead''. Note that this only applies to Normal mode and lower difficulties.
Line 29:
** Crows, spiders, G-embryos and roaches in Memory of a Lost City.
** Bats and ants in Game of Oblivion.
** Piranha, bats and ants in Operation Javier.
* [[Narm]]: During Ada Wong's "death" some of her lines come across as forced. This clashes greatly with her portayal in ''[[Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles|The Umbrella Chronicles]]''.
{{quote|'''Ada:''' It's strange. I barely know you, but somehow I knew you'd say that.}}
Line 36:
** All the dialogue in the final cutscene, like the "virus in your soul" line.
** The Hunter's death animation when taken down with the shotgun. They almost always lift their head up, and slam it back down with a '''WHUMP''' sound.
* [[Rescued Fromfrom the Scrappy Heap]]: Not completely rescued, but some fans who dislike Steve in ''Code: Veronica'' found him more tolerable in this game due to his better voice actor and for acting far less of a [[Jerkass]] towards Claire.
* [[That One Boss]]: Most of the late chapter bosses will have the player swearing at the screen, as they tend to be [[Made of Iron|Iron]] [[Lightning Bruiser|Lightning Bruisers]] whose weak spot is small and hard to hit. The fact they often come sequentially is alleviated only by the fact that the game usually throws you a checkpoint in between each boss. Props definitely have to go to Alexia who is just as jaw-grittingly frustrating as she was in the original game. Worse then that, she comes right after the battle with Mutant Steve, himself a painful boss.
