On March 31, collaborating with Capcom, Famitsu published an artbook titled Inside of Biohazard Darkside Chronicles (Japanese: インサイドオブバイオハザード/ダークサイドクロニクルズ).

Biohaze picked up a copy of the book today. Inside contains beautiful artwork and renders of characters and enemies, detailed descriptions, artists' conceptual sketches, a series timeline (for both the series story and various game releases), interesting interviews with Masachika Kawata and Yasuhiro Seto (that talking about subjects from Gun Survivor 2 to the PS2 version of Biohazard 4) and finally a staff survey. The 191-page book retails for ¥2500 and is certainly a worthy addition to any Biohazard collection.

Check out Amazon Japan's page for the book here.

Yeah, got this last week. Brilliant book. I especially like the scrapped BOW section.

They are the 'Kid Napper' which is like a falcon or an eagle with massive claws. This was probably how all the kids were to be abducted from the village.

'The Mimic' which looks to be a plant BOW that can blend into the background.

'Beserker' looks something like a zombie/licker and Garrdor.

'Ruffing Killer' looks like Nemesis dressed up as a serial killer (or is it 3.5's hookman?).

Looks like a very interesting book, hope some day I can buy it...

Ruffing Killer looks like Nemesis to me. :biggrin:

Thanks cvx and John for the info. Those scrapped B.O.W.s look great. A shame they didn't make it...

Beautiful and great book, we were expecting something similar to the Art of Arts UC. I too am waiting for it.

Gee, I wonder what your problem is.

TheBatman has already shown me some scans, the content is nothing short of amazing. Its definitely Capcom's best endeavour plot-wise. There's a Tyrant graph that lists virtually every single Tyrant in the series and their relations. Including, but not limited to:

Quote:
Proto Tyrant (T-001 Type)
Tyrant (T-002 Type)
Tyrant T-103 Type
Tyrant (T-103 Mass Produced Type)
Nemesis T-Type

Hypnos T-Type

Tyrant R
Tyrant C
Tyrant 091
Thanatos

Ivan

T-A.L.O.S.

Bandersnatch
Jabberwock S3


The book also includes the most complete timeline the series has to-date, and includes Dead Aim.

I can't wait for Project Umbrella to get this information up. It's really handy for those of us who can't get the book. Make sure you notify us here when it's completed. :mrgreen:
