    Gameplay is really fun, but very frustrating at times. You will die A LOT. The camera angles are simply awful at times, and aiming is super cumbersome, even though you're using a mouse. If an enemy is close to you, you're better off unloading a whole magazine then trying to aim for the head, because 9/10 times you will just completely miss even though the crosshair is right on the head.Gameplay is really fun, but very frustrating at times.

Graphics are pretty mediocre, as can be expected from DX9 technology, but the game runs rather poorly on my AMD 1090t and 4gb 2000mhz ram and a 6970 2gb GPU. It bogs down and stutters randomly. Oh and there's plenty of screen tearing too if you disable vsync, which with it enabled, induces input lag. Not a bad game. I just hope they start patching the bugs soon.… Expand

    Well this is no "real" Resident Evil game. Its far from scary and its too much of an action game than a horror. Even though I thought that the level design was good and I loved the Leon story it was really good all the way.

    This game is for the most part lots of fun. The only reason I gave it a mediocre score is that I have never seen a game where the player has so many controls and constraints. You are told when to shoot, where to go, and how to get there. The player has few choices. Likewise, the cut scenes were exremely intrusive and didn't allow me to get into a rhythm.

    It's a good game but it has taken steps towards the wrong direction. Too much action oriented, a bad inventory not letting you fix and organize your weapons and items and many campaigns that actually take place the same time ruining the immersion factor. I would definitely prefer one big campaign. Technically the game looks and feels good.

    RE6 has very cinematic atmosphere, good graphics for a console title, and very nice gore effects when shooting zombies. that sums up the positives.
    Quicktime events and always changing keys for them will frustrate you to no end. You will die a lot because it will not be clear what button to press in time. Maybe this can be levied with using an X360 controller.

    The aiming is utter and complete BS. You will either take literally up to 10 seconds to line up one headshot or misfire when you spray before your aim is aligned, your choice. There are better ways to make shooters harder. Messing up your aim by giving you a handicap that a bottle of wine straight up would give you is not a good way to make a shooter more challenging... overall very bad gameplay mechanics and design.

    This is no longer resident evil. sure, the shooter part of the game is fun, the graphics and character models are great.

    but when it comes to chase scenes, inventory management, STORY... it becomes not so great. especially the camera in chase scenes.

But this is unplayable for me, only because of the camera angle and controls, the controls are incredibly awkward with no chance to chance some of the stuff to mouse button keys, thats fine, ill get use to it. But mix these bad controls with a camera that constantly spins this way and that way, jumps from angle to angle.

    Let me give you a example, playing as ada, im runing through the sub, i jump up to kick a enemy, i juck, kick him, the camera switches from one angle to other, now i turn around cause i got a mass following behind him, camera switches around again throwing off what should of been a fluid action. I died as a result of a enemy running up on me and i couldnt quite adjust just right to fire on him.

    I plan on uninstalling it cause the camera jittering coupled with goofy controls only because it gives me a headache, if it wasnt for that id probably suffer through it.

    (just another example, i was trying to figure out how to equip the pipebomb arrows, i assumed it was a secondary ammo, i hit a few of the generic keys, nothing worked, went into the options to look it up, i saw a command that sounded like it would do just what i was after, so i hit G, it only switched from sub machine gun to crossbow.....i still have no idea how to switch ammos out).

    Just to show you where im coming from, im not a cowadooty kid, i stopped when it lost its way after united offense.

    1 campaign gives you 6-7 hours to play, and with 4 campaigns available, you can beat this game over 23 hours i think

    i recommend you to play this game with partner, play alone (single player) in this game is too easy since your partner AI is invicible

    Graphic is good, but too many graphic glitches i found in this game, and tons of bug even after updating your game version

Anyone, which is most, wanted the series to go back to the survival horror aspect, they didn't to most people's grief.
    While it's not what I wanted either, I do love how fluid the combat system is and I do actually love to play the game. If the game didn't have Resident Evil on it I'd probably love it a lot more along with a lot more. Though it takes a huge downturn to see this great series slowly became more "mainstream" so it's less of a horror game and just fully on action, as I keep stating.
    Though I am fine with the game as is. I don't see it as a horror game continuation from my childhood, it's just what this series has turned into and I enjoy it for what it is. I loved the co-op in quite a lot of the game except the extremely shoe-horned in Ada and the Agent co-op. I enjoyed Ada's campaign the way it was and I saw no change needed.
    Resident Evil 6 is a decent game with fluent game play and for that I enjoy it. For the series ever going back to the original survival horror scattered with puzzle I don't have hope for the future of Resident Evil.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the better console ports that I have seen, plenty of new features to the game, mostly in primping an customizing your profile though. At the point of writing this, the COOP is playable with occasional drop outs and lag but not enough to ruin the experience. The problem come in with the controls however. They have given you more control of your character, but aiming and shooting are very flaky up close as the camera angle always seems to be jut of, enough to cause you to miss those crucial up close shots consistently enough to make close quarter's fighting a real chore. The zombies have also sen a big overhaul, mainly in the form of new types of zombies, enough to keep fights interesting, especially early on. The second overhaul, zombie moves i one I am not so fond of. Zombies now can leap massive distances and when down on the ground are even more dangerous than their walking variant.
    Overall the game is good but is held back back some basic control problems that really should not plague a game that i so similar to its predecessors which were a joy to play.    … Expand

    Characters 4/10 Leon hates women, women love Leon... Chris wants to be a good soldier but has serious roid rage... Jake is a Merc and is only in it for the money until something in his head makes it personal... Ada is the femme-fatale who you cant figure out if she's good or bad... Sherry and Helena are walking and ass....

In one campaign it´s essential though. In the Chris Campaign. THe graphics are old even on the oc, but at least the models and light effects look decent. The overall length is about 20 to 24 hrs. Four Campaigns, Collectibles, Skill Points, the game tries to take you on a long journey. You think that´s it? Hell, no! The inventory system is you can only take as many items as you have slots, but in the game you get a lot of ammo and your inventory gets full very fast. The game is extremly linear and the puzzles and riddles are for monkeys. The quicktime events are annyoing and many of them are unnecessary or even too easy! What´s left to say? The controls are a lil bit delayed but that´s for the "survival aspect" of this game. It has fully Xbox 360 Support though. The mouse and controller controls are both good and feel good. At all the game feels smooth but it has many holes, it´s like a BMW you like to drive even though the car is old and needs to get repaired.

All of the main character models look worse than before. Jill is now very different looking, when in #5 she was perfect. I also think Resident Evil 5s chris looked better. The game is less theatrical and not well imagined. I even think this game is worse than Resident Evil 4 in all areas. I can't quite say why I disliked this, but it just seems like no one working on the project did a job that was excellent.… Expand

    The best advice I can give if you are going to play this RE6 is start with the Leon missions. Play the missions in the order they appear, Chris second, and so on. I thought you chose one character and played the whole game with that person and skill set. I chose Ada, and it was incredibly difficult with hardly any ammo.

Play the missions in the order they appear, Chris second, and so on. I thought you chose one character and played the whole game with that person and skill set. I chose Ada, and it was incredibly difficult with hardly any ammo. Sheer desperation made me mention how hard it was in a forum, and I was told start with Leon.

    The game is cram packed full of cut-scenes. These can be long or short. The short ones are on average about every two minutes. It constantly pulls control away from the player. It might just be that a the ground rocks, but then you lose control the camera sways, the character wobbles. Then you have to press your control keys again to get it going again. There are parts of the game where it happens less, then there parts when it's non-stop. There are even times when it takes camera angle control from you and expects you to carry on.

    Over-all though the controls are bad. It is a constant wrangle to maintain control. When you get to a ledge, you can't just jump up it. You have to wait for it to say 'space', then you can press space and jump up. Nearly everything is controlled in this way throughout. Endless, endless pressing keys.

    That brings you onto the quick-time-event. Non-stop weird button mashing that has nothing to do with normal control. It's Ok to an extent, but even the most patient person gets annoyed. You're thinking, "what is that for".

    Then onto how difficult it can be. There is one part I recall. 3rd Chris chapter, you have to run across a load of boats and moorings. You have to make it in time. Checkpoints make you repeat it until you get it right. I can not tell you how bad that whole event was. I was screaming. (Not the only time I was screaming in this game either.)

    5/10 is generous, but I don't quite think it's a 4/10. It's strong points are that sometimes the combat is great. The sets can be OK, but mostly they are dim lit. The cathedral chapter in the Leon campaign is just epic. If only they had made the whole game like that.

    The bosses are just unbelievable annoying. The Leon boss just keeps coming back, and I was sick of the sight of it, and sick of shooting it. Completely stupid method to kill it. I had to search online to find out how. What they have done though is build up the difficulty in each campaign as you get closer to the last. It doesn't feel like built up action. It feels like catastrophic insulting garbage from the developers, and you want blood as compensation. They try to make it a huge experience but falls flat on it's face by kicking you in the teeth non-stop.

    Falling over is something that happens a lot with your character. Endless boom, flat on your back. It's noisy a lot. In fact they should have called it - 'Boom, flat on your back'. I honestly don't know if I can finish it. I have given it a good go. RE5 I sold unfinished as well.    … Expand

    Easily the weakest of the numbered RE games.

    I'm going to assume the developers were attempting to bring the game series more in line with the godawful Milla Jovovich movies, i.e. more dumb action, and way less horror. Michael Bay fans will be in daft-headed Heaven.

    I will start with the positives, first and foremost it's just a lot of fun to play as the combat is truly fantastic, apart from the cover system which is quite terrible so I never used it. There's endless ways to kill the enemy, including the always fun to execute melee finishers. The monsters take visible damage as you shoot them which I loved, bits of their body will fly off as you focus them and it just adds something to the combat which I appreciated. The game doesn't have an Oscar winning story but it keeps you interested, if you've ever played a Resident Evil game you know what's going to happen, as it always happens. The voice work is done well, although hurt by the script which isn't great at best, it's very cheesy and almost cringe-worthy at times but that's a staple of Resident Evil games at this point. Also I'll say that I had no technical issues, the game ran at a solid 60fps throughout on max settings, I know performance was an issue in the past but it's certainly not now on appropriate hardware.

    As for negatives, the biggest for me was the length of the game, it truly overstayed its welcome, at 22 hours it feels very long and fatigue kicked in around the 15 hours mark. I would have enjoyed the game a lot more had they trimmed the fat and sliced off at least 5 hours, it would have been a more enjoyable game for it, I can think of a few sections that could be shortened or just removed entirely. By the end I was struggling to find motivation to finish it, and I dropped my overall rating from a 7 to a 6 as it just dragged on too much, the reduction in score was also due to the fact that Ada's campaign was poor almost throughout and as I played it last it left a sour taste in my mouth after I finished the game. Another gripe were the unskippable cutscenes, no one likes them, so please stop using them devs! Another dev favourite that we all hate are QTEs and the game is littered with them, so be prepared to die if you don't press A + X within a split second of it popping up on the screen.

    Overall I did enjoy it for the most part but it definitely wore me down by the end, would I recommend it? Yes, but only when on sale and only if you feel you can endure the boring chapters as to enjoy the good ones. I should also mention the game is heavily co-op focused, you can play solo with an AI companion but the game is far more fun with a friend, or even a random online player although those are rare these days.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm biased. Resident Evil on PS1 is 1/2 of what started me on gaming in the first place. I loved 1-3, played them through all their secrets. GameCube's RE4 was, I thought, the awesome next step. RE5 didn't feel like RE. I HATED the parasite attached to my character making a solo play impossible because there was no way to kill her off and keep going solo. She also ate resources. Coop play is a fantastic idea but only if it's not required. The landscape also sucked. Chris was also tired. Anyway, onto RE6.

    PROS:

    THE PARASITE: The co-op critter attached to you can be ignored. It can't die and it doesn't drain your resources. Ignore it and you'll be fine apart from waiting on a few doors to open.

    ATMOSPHERE: More of a return to what RE should be, over that RE5 debacle. Each line is different. Leon is kinda standard. Chris is more in tune with RE5 (kill him off already), but limited so it's ok. The Jake line is a newer take that I rather liked, with a different approach to fighting without a gun. Not so much on the puzzles but a step closer to where we need to be.

    GAMEPLAY: A little bit of everything. There's a snowmobile chase scene. I didn't think I'd like this, but I did. Defend against a harrowing ambush in a snowy cabin only to escape out the back onto a snowmobile for a refreshing change of pace. Stealth-ish options in the Jake/Sherri sequence. A car chase. With guns. A bit of flying with some shooting. A motorcycle chase, again with guns. All these just feel like a little respite from the shoot and splatter bits, a way to segway into the next bits. The Ada story (played last for storyline sake) is solo and can be somewhat stealthish in parts, though there is co-op available. The way her line was structured is how co-op should be...truly optional.

    PERSPECTIVE: They brought back perspective flipping by playing through as different characters. Two flips within 3 storylines...and 3 storylines. Six playthroughs if you like. Weapons exclusive to each character. Motives. Secrets. More of a return from the RE5 crap.

    REACTIVE MOBS: Evolving monsters like in RE4. Shoot a mob in the arm, they adapt by growing a super armor arm that they then use to shield themselves almost completely...forcing you to go for an ankleshot unless you have a grenade launcher or some such. Leg shots...similar problems. Head...well, sometimes they sprout a new one. Shotgun blast to the chest....sometimes they blow up into a walking bioexplosive...but you can use these to bomb other mobs. They have snipers too.

    INVENTORY: The wheels are nice. Herbs finally get their own special place, with a hotkey for fast eating.

    JAKE: Good addition to the traditional eyeroll, Class B horror flick drama of RE.

    GODZILLA: Zombie style.

    CONS:

    BUTTON MASHING: OMFGWHY. WHY? Why do I have to bang on keyboard and mouse with such repetition that my wrist muscles burn and my fingers cramp? There are some escape sequences that require this BS to such a degree that it almost makes me quit and purge the game from my system entirely. (See: Sherri/Jake doors and drill sequence).

    CHASE BUTTON MASHING: OMFGWHY kicked up to the tenth power. (See: Chris storyline escape seamonster sequence). This is exacerbated by forced camera flipping which turns your W key from backwards to forwards to sideways in a blink. I played this for 2 hours on fail. Came back again out of stubborness. Got it, but only by rote memorization of key stamps and clicks to the end. Start over to take it another 2 feet, die. Start over again to add yet another 2 feet, die. Rinse/repeat until you know each camera flip and key mash. Like learning Morse Code on the fly and putting it into keyboard/mouse gaming controls. This gameplay fxn needs to be erased. It's tedious instead of challenging. Gamebreaking for many.

    HEADSHOTS: Why doesn't a headshot do anything to a typical zombie?

    CHRIS: Why isn't he dead yet? From a steroid induced aneurism if nothing else.

    DIFFICULTY: Doesn't feel like survival horror, just urban landscape biohorror with guns and much ammunition.    … Expand

    RE6 has very cinematic atmosphere, good graphics for a console title, and very nice gore effects when shooting zombies. that sums up the positives.
    Quicktime events and always changing keys for them will frustrate you to no end. You will die a lot because it will not be clear what button to press in time. Maybe this can be levied with using an X360 controller.

    Better than RE4 and much better than RE5 and ORC. It's not the same RE as RE1 and RE3, but it's not bad. It has really good plot - something new in RE franchise. It has well known characters and new ones which are really great. You can move while shooting so this game is more dynamic than RE4 and RE5. You can feel old RE a bit in Leon's campaing but Chris's campaign was the best for me.

I love Resident Evil series each in their own way, but the old ones are better in my opinion and the turn the series took is not the one that had best potential in my opinion.

    As you can see, lately the best upcoming horror games were inspired from the old Resident Evil style such as 'Outlast', 'Until Dawn', 'Alien Isolation'. However, the only one that is really scary is Outlast in my opinion and the best way ahead.

    Resident Evil, the old ones, even with technology limitations were brilliant. The environment, the lighting and the horror were really taking the player's immersion into great scare and horror.

    Now, even with greater technology, only the graphics change and they fill up the rest with action, more action and...more action and explosion. Like...really?

    It started at Resident Evil 4...a zombie with a crossbow? Even the virus was not interesting...from this installment, in each successive game, only the horror part were nice.

    Because let's be honest, the plot never really changes. It goes like this: Intro -> Outbreak -> Laboratory-> END. They have removed all the exploration, puzzle, atmospheric and scary parts from the old style to bring...MORE ACTION and GORE...with the same plot. So the only interesting parts are in the lab with the latest installment. It's even more linear than the old games.

    As for today, successful horror games bring back the exploration, puzzle, adventurous and horrific style that WAS Resident Evil at its core. The abandoned Mansion was amazing. I'm not saying that it should still be that way, but keeping isolation on your characters with scary environment such as old houses/mansion/train/lab/church/etc. is the core of its game...not going to africa in the middle of nowhere.

    I remember playing RES2 and going through an hallway was so hard, it was terrifying! Now, I'm so pumped up and arm to the teeth I don't f*cking care. I got Chris big guns with infinite ammo and destroy the entire world with a push up...like seriously! Wesker is like the most dangerous enemy and he had to die so easily...What I meant is now even with "greater technology" and visual effects, it's not more terrifying. But Outlast was scary as shjt and its all because of the environment and situation you are into. You can't fight, you hide and survive. Res used to be like that, one gun, a few bullet and a knife and make your bullet count.

    RE6 doesnt shy away from it's action oriented focus, making something like even Resident Evil 5 look like classic survival horror in comparison. Through out the game there are on rails sections which are infused with some of the most annoying QTE's that video gaming has to offer. But i'd be lying if i said that i didnt enjoy the setpiece moments themselves. The game strives to be an action shooter, but it doesnt throw away the classic features completely. While shooting enemies you still need to use slow precision, mindlessly blasting them wont be effective and will just waste your ammo, most of the time atleast. Shooting mechanics themselves fair pretty well, there's a decent weapon variety and they offer generally impacful feeling during combat, coupled with interesting enemy designs, it makes up for a competent shooter. The cover system however is quite confusing, it takes too much time to get accustomed to it to use it properly. But where RE6 combat falters are the lack of precise and polished movement mechanics. Movement in the game is quite sluggish and unintuitive. Male and female characters also share the same movement animations it seems, signaling laziness on Capcom's part. The talent system that the game has only allows you to select 1 custom talent set a time, each set limited to 3 talents, which felt too limiting, aswell as despite my attempts, i didnt seem to be able to switch between talent sets while in game, even though the game is supposed to allow that i believe.

    RE6 has 4 campaigns, each of them alone arent particularly lengthy, but put together they do offer a healthy length. The campaigns also feel varied enough in their approaches and level design, with each offering something different to the player. Though the best thing about these 4 campaigns is how they intertwine and supplement each other. Each campaign you'll play will you give a different perspective on events that you'll experience in other campaigns. The core narrative itself is decent enough and offers interesting twists and turns that Resident Evil has been known for.

    Graphically RE6 unsuprisingly shows it's age and console port roots, with some pretty low resolution textures piercing your eyes at times, though overall the game has a pretty solid art style that manages to compensate for it's technical shortcomings. Performance wise atleast the game did not gave me any headaches.

    I see quite a lot of negativity among Resident Evil fans that's aimed towards this game, while some of it i can understand, most of it feels unfounded, the game objectively is still pretty decent for what it is.    … Expand

    Too bad that the game failed to deliver on the expectations that Capcom set themselves, and "No Hope Left" became an inside joke in the RE community, pertaining to what what fans felt for the future of the series.

    RE6 is an action game, and that's all there is to know about it. Ever played a TPS in the last decade? Chances are, you're already familiar with the game mechanics in RE6, albeit QTE-laden and includes an unreliable camera. Sure, there are zombies, mutated freaks, and hulking beasts, but I see no difference from the cannon fodder that runs into my view, while playing other action games. What used to be creatures that terrified me, are now minor obstacles that litter the path between point A and point B. This isn't the Resident Evil that I knew of, and it's bad at being one.

    But of course, franchises change to better suit the modern trends, and what's hot in the market right now is the explosive Hollywood experience - something which RE6 emulated well. While it did throw off the tension and atmosphere out the window, RE6 kept the B-movie antics which became a defining trait for the rest of the series. Combine that with an over-the-top plot, and you've got yourself one hell of an explosive ride. Just don't wrap your hear around the fact that this is an RE game. It's better that way.

This game is an unsuccessful sexual crossing of horror and action genres, in which the creators wanted to pour out on the player absolutely all the ideas and mechanics that were voiced during the "brainstorming", and didn't decide, what to leave and what not to leave here.
    RE 6 is the only game that I didn't finish...and I played many games you know, and not all of them were good for me from the beginning. I played several days and there is my review on that piece of... game:
    The only thing I liked here - The most convenient control in the series at the time of release. Heroes FINALLY! do not crawl like snails. Finally, you are not feeling yourself as a "bag of jelly" just because the authors were only in that way able to realize such a concept as horror ...which, by the way, is no longer here in RE6. And a very effective and cute second boss-girl with tentacles))
    That's all. Now we begin the descent into the grave of this franchise:
    1) The plot has always been not the best element in RE games, but in the 6th part it is already the maximum squeeze out of the action and Hollywood special effects, many of which are banal in this game(as we can say, "meaningless and merciless"). Now 200 zombies are thrown on your head, on which you spend almost all your ammunition... and the game give you some next big guys at the end. What kind of horror are we talking about here? The horror of how much this game can further disgrace the atmosphere and the idea of the entire franchise, which got worse and worse with each part? Well then it was done perfectly.
    2) The game very brazenly insists on hand-to-hand combats (in particular, in thing that I hate in such games: spend half a pistol clip in the head of the most simple zombie), but at the same time, hand-to-hand attacks do not always work normally, and the enemy eats you. As it was if you didn’t hit the fu*ing button when the corresponding icon is on the screen... By the way, often this simplest zombie devoured one and a half pistol clips. ONE AND A HALF! It's just squalor to do so. Damn... And after all, why the hell should 1 punch be more powerful than a pistol clip? What kind of stupid logic and rigid requirement to swing limbs are these? We're playing a fighting game, or what?
    3) There are a lot of absolutely stupid and unnecessary pompous "movie scenes" that can be described by the banal "pathos only for the sake of pathos", like the tearful begging of zombies not to eat you, or endless "why do we need to go to church" and not even wait for an answer. And for what? We go even to the ends of the world and we will not ask questions. An ideal political electorate... Endless explosions, A lot of slow-motion scenes, parkour and other endless acrobatics. Sometimes I thought that zombies would start using karate against the character's hand-to-hand combat, like in "good old third-rate action movies". Seriously. Oh and dear writers, how does a spore zombie that infects people and makes them a zombie never turns the protagonist into a zombie? scenery immunity?
    4) I don't like QTE in games, but I understand that sometimes it can be applied... however, in this game there is just an endless abyss of this stupid QTE, because of which at some point of game-play you begin to feel yourself like an epileptic in anticipation of the next attack of hitting the buttons.
    5) Locations have turned into one... endless... sausage. That's all. Only from point A to point B.
    Such a concept as level research and finding hidden things here is completely killed by one big straight sausage-design. And even if you are somehow magically lost in this sausage, press the Q button, and the game will show you where to go.
    6) I will never get tired of writing about how I hate situations when you need to run away from someone or something and the damn camera jumps in front of you, showing what's behind you, and you can't see anything what in front of you + disgusting jumps and angles of the camera.
    7) Disgusting inventory. Completely inconvenient and completely unpleasant to look on it and usage of it. Although the herb mixing system and stamina bar I liked.
    8) Oh yes, and how could I forget about the "endless waves of enemies" in different places, loved by many players.
    9) And, finally, I will put into a separate paragraph what annoyed me a little in other parts, but already wildly infuriates me in this one. The last parts of the game are co-op games. Only in co-op with someone you can get full pleasure from playing, because the AI of your partner is fiercely stupid.
    Unlike AI of zombies, which can turn trap levers or drive a tank. What ...the f*ck... is... going on... here?!
    10) Billion logically mistakes as in some low rated cheap action movie. Unfortunately.    … Expand

    RE6 isn't the worst game I've played however it's easily one of the Worst Resident Evil games I've played. I feel like they slapped Resident Evil onto a different game last minute.

    I did kinda enjoy some stories and what they tried to do with variety but lots of it just falls dull or flat. It's a shame too because this was the title that potentially could've killed Capcom.

    The gunplay isn't even bad, heck I find some of it enjoyable, specifically in Mercenaries Mode.

    Still this game lacks the soul of what made Resident Evil great and created what I believed was a more generic shooter. It had potential too, just not as a RE game in my eyes.

    Luckily Resident Evil 7 brought them back.    … Expand

    I'll be synthetic. The game is filled to the brim with entirely gratuitous scripted actions. I hate those. Many scenarios are likewise gratuitously slow. I hate that. Zombies' reactions to attacks reek of brawler games. Tekken wasn't as clumsy though.

    Смешная, дурацкая, нелепая. Геймплей сойдетский, сюжет вызывает истеричный смех. Дурость, возвращаться к тайтлу скорее всего не буду.

    In general, the game is at an average level, the authors have well thought out 4 campaigns to combine into one plot, the soundtrack is normal, from the minuses bugs, bugs, bugs and bugs, shooting. optimization is surprisingly good

    Casual shooter instead of a good survival horror game. Probably the worst game since Resident Evil 4.

    Graphically, the game looks pretty good. Control has some issues, but nothing critical. The new enemies look strange and often illogical. Most of them are insect-like creatures. Sometimes it is literally a cluster of insects in an anthropomorphic shape. Boss battles are interesting but they appear quite rarely.

    The game has several story campaigns that differ significantly in style. At some point they all intersect. Events take place in chronological order. Terrorist acts of bio-terrorists led to a series of events.
    The game has new characters with their own story, which will develop during the game. Sometimes it develops very slowly. The plot has both interesting moments and rather stupid ones.
    Not the worst part of the Resident Evil series, but it has many flaws.    … Expand

    RE6 is a very fun action game with horror elements. It has its weaknesses and is full of absurdities. But the cinematic nature and effective action make it impossible to get bored with this production.

    Graphics are nice, story is cool also I like the idea of separate campaigns but the gameplay is awful - 5/10

    Perhaps it's still too experimental and difficult than the sixth entry in a series ought to be, but despite everything, RE6 offers top-tier cinematic action and series-high storytelling. For fans who've yet to try it, the PC version is the right choice.

    If we forget the roots of the franchise, we have ourselves a pretty awesome and addictive 3rd person shooter. [May 2013]

    An apocalyptic disappointment that never rises above mediocrity, but often sinks into tedium. [July 2013, p.72]
