Line 10:
* [[Complete Monster]]: Alexia Ashford is much more evil in this game. Of course, she was pretty nasty in the original to begin with. Alfred is also far, ''far'' more evil here as well, a stark contrast to his [[Harmless Villain|pathetically harmless]] status in ''Code Veronica''.
* [[Creator's Pet]]: Jack Krauser evidentially gained a lot of popularity in ''[[Resident Evil 4]]''. Turns out, Krauser was also a favorite in the [[Resident Evil]] development team, and it partly this reason that this game was dedicated to his fall to darkness.
* [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]: The moment where [[Distressed Damsel|Manuela Hidalgo]] decides to {{spoiler|''[[Let's Get Dangerous|use]]'' [[Playing Withwith Fire|her T-Veronica powers.]]}}
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]:
** Steve's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpPXHxWBtXg monster theme].
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 (Video Game)]] 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 30:
** 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: theThe Umbrella Chronicles|The Umbrella Chronicles]]''.
{{quote| '''Ada:''' It's strange. I barely know you, but somehow I knew you'd say that.}}
** Tch, still beats the line she used in Resident Evil 2
