With Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles to ship on November 17, Capcom has decided to pull a PR stunt where Leon and Claire will twitter about the events in the game.
It seems that twittering as video game characters the new cool PR move? Do you guys follow any video game characters on Twitter?
Share your perspective. Keep it thoughtful, welcoming and on topic.
Yep… I'm almost embarrassed to say that I am actually following Pikachu…

"Today, I was having some bacon and eggs for breakfast, and guess what? Zombies. *Sigh*"
"Can't believe my iPhone is getting reception in these sewers. weird."
"Zombie bit me. need a bandaid."
Why don't you just, like… advertise the game normally Capcom? Why does every Wii game need some obscure viral campaign that is clearly meant to save ad dollars for niche HD products?
Jeff is totally right. All I can do when I see viral marketing campaigns is sigh. And companies wonder why even their best efforts aren't selling for Wii.
Please!!! Please stop!!! I know it's not easy for the average human who is so easily influenced by more intelligent entities to sit there and consume all of this drivel. We have to make a stand and fight for the greater good! (Sorry fellow infendo-ites, the liberal left wing humanitarian in me just hijacked my keyboard. I hate when that happens! )………….oooh! Claire Redfield is on Twitter? No way!?
@Jeff. You are a wise man. You should go into marketing. That's a great reason why Nintendo Wii sales have no consistency.
This is dumb. Twitter is dumb. But I'll still buy the game.
If you are not following Cobra Commander on Twitter, you are missing out on some funny stuff.
i absolutely despise twitter and its premise. why do people enjoy this pointless banter? 🙁 do we really need instant instant messaging?
i'm sitting at my desk.
a person just walked by my cubicle.
i'm getting hungry.
i went to in-n-out for lunch it was good. i passed gas. my stomach was happy. i smiled and blamed it on the lady next to me.
I'm glad im not the only one who thinks twittering is stupid
