    Sure this isn't Resident Evil anymore, however as much as i dislike some of the changes this franchise had, i still enjoy it a lot and i think this is a big improvement over Resident Evil 5.
    Having played the console version before, i can easily assume that the PC version is easily the best looking version and its perfectly ported.

    I've had a bit of problem getting familiar with the cameras and the gameplay but after a while you'll get along with it.
    The storyline is quite good and i like how you play it with 4 different characters from different points of views.
    The MP is also great, a lot of gamemodes but Mercenaries is so much fun.
    Also the game has Split-Screen in coop and the other game modes to play with your friends.

    I gotta say i'm an old school Resident Evil fan, but i liked this game so far, regardless of how much it has changed.    … Expand

    Well first of all I will rate this game regardless of what was in their deliveries of yore like action game is a delight from head to toe entertaining from beginning to end in every way, with 4 campaigns and mythical characters that we all know. leon campaign is perfect, it is the closest to the action and horror survivar moderate, chris is pure action but have certain times of retentionWell first of all I will rate this game regardless of what was in their deliveries of yore like action game is a delight from head to toe entertaining from beginning to end in every way, with 4 campaigns and mythical characters that we all know. leon campaign is perfect, it is the closest to the action and horror survivar moderate, chris is pure action but have certain times of retention and so in other campaigns, I've only played 4 hours testing each campaign but is sufficient to realize how the overall game. the perfect narrative is a story quite interesting, the gameplay has some flaws as a bit robotic animation but not serious fits perfectly what I'm playing with mouse and keyboard and am very pleased with the good work of Capcom with the PC port and did well to leave that crap games for windows live as the graphics are almost like those of consoles with some improvements like the softness of the shadows and some highlights filters foremost conclusion for those who have not yet decided to buy the game, try it yourselves see videos on youtube enough to draw their own conclusions from the game itself does not value it for you because someone else says, because everyone has a different view but in my humble analysis so far I've played enough games is recommended for those who likes action survivar combined with horror that not all the time but if you have it and appreciate the game regardless of what was in their deliveries old … Expand

There's everything to love and nothing to hate. If we consider the last trilogy, Resident Evil from 4 to 6 this is easily the best of them all, the culmination of the action Capcom offers. You can do all sort of new moves which are awesome, you can slide, dodge, land on your back and shoot from the ground (which can be done when enemies drop you too), you can fight in melee with combos or switching to a melee weapon. I really like the fluidity of the game and it's even more fun with a friend. The coop of this game is great, you are not helpless per sé, you can counter enemies' grapples, you can even "stand up" for yourself if you survive long enough in a down state, but, of course, it's a lot easier if there's a team mate helping you out but that may not be always possible due to tactics gone wrong or levels where you have to stay apart for some time.
    There is much to explore, some campaigns have more exploration than others, graphics are really good for my standards (which may be low since I don't really care) and it goes at 60 fps even if the benchmark told me it would go at 20-30. The campaigns are a great idea, different enemies, different characters, different playstyles and it's a hard game too! I play at Professional difficulty, invested 23 hours in the game right now and I'm something as halfway through (I'm doing chapter 3 with Chris now after doing 3 chapters with Jake and Leon). I really can't find anything wrong with this game, it gives me the challenge I seek, the adrenaline, the fear (the fear of dying but there are some jumps too), the gameplay is perfect as I see it, this was much more than I anticipated, I'll definitely play this multiple times. I'm giving it a 10 because as I said before, I can't find much wrong with it and I didn't have such fun with an action game for a while.    … Expand

    Cons
    - not the best in the series, since it's mostly action oriented, less on the horror side
    - you'll need a controller to enjoy the gameplay experience

    Pros
    - it has 4 different campaigns and plenty of content altogether.
    - definitely did worth my 7E on steam
    - graphics are really nice

All four campaigns have their unique play styles: Leon's is relatively like a 'traditional' RE game, while Chris' is more like a proper third person shooter with lots of gun toting enemies.

    This game also features co op, and let me say it is amazing! You can play 3 out of the 4 campaigns cooperatively, with the exception of the smallest campaign as it follows a single characters and I suspect the developers didn't want to add a random faceless grunt in place of an actual character to stick co-op on this campaign.

    Overall, co-op with mates is extremely fun, and the controls feel very fluid, unlike the other RE's where you character does quite often feel like a tank. Graphically, the game looks very nice, even on low settings and the game is very dark and atmospheric. The set pieces and boss battles are nicely made with the exception of a few, and overall I only got bored a few times in the entire 30 hour campaign.

    To conclude, I would highly recommend getting Resident Evil 6, although perhaps not at its full price as there are other games of the genre that are better. If you and a friend are going to get it, I probably wouldn't pay more than $40-50.    … Expand

    The game has a great OST, and a great history. is a great game, but there is no horror. In this game we have 4 campaign with totally different histories who let you play co op with your friends, great characters and and many other game modes. I totally recommend, but do not expect scares or horror.

    Vaya por delante que el primer juego que jugué de RE fue el Revelations (que me encantó), tras el cual, seguí con el RE:5 (me gustó tanto o más) así que fuí por este RE:6

    Creo que este juego puede analizarse desde distintos puntos de vista, y esto lo digo para justificar que este juego está bien, pero no mantiene el nivel del 5 (no conozco el 4 aunque hablan muy bien de él).

    La historia está realmente elaborada, pero de algún modo no atrapa tanto como el de los títulos que antes cité (que tienen un nivel de dramatísmo realmente digno de mención).

    Este también lo intenta, y lo logra aunque no tanto (nótese que esto es completamente subjetivo, para gustos los colores)

    El modo campaña, es muy largo, aunque está dividido en cuatro historias 'independientes' (aunque se cruzan entre sí). Esas cuatro historias, abarcan también cada una una manera más o menos diferenciada de estilo de videojuego de Resident Evil. Suspense, acción, escape o sigilo.

    Realmente todas tienen un poco de cada cual, pero se nota que han querido que cada historia predomine más un determinado estilo de juego.

    Sobre el sistema de juego, basicamente es como el del RE:5, aunque un poco retocado, sobretodo el tema del personaje secundario que va contigo, que hasta ahora podía prestarte items. Ahora no se puede. Personalmente me gusta más eso de poder compartir items.

    La cámara (es en tercera persona) va un poco loca, pero puede solventarse sin problemas graduando en opciones el grado de velocidad a una escala intermedia. Se aprecia igualmente el esfuerzo por dotar al personaje jugable de gran variedad de movimientos, desde poder moverte y apuntar al mismo tiempo, poder avanzar agachado, deslizarte, saltar corriendo, un sistema de cobertura mejorado sobre el RE:5..., además de un mayor grado de posible ordenes a tu compañero de viaje, hasta seis opciones (unas más útiles que otras).

    En cuanto a lo técnico visualmente es un pelín irregular. Hay muchíiiiiisimo material de película sea película en sí como generado por el motor gráfico que está muy, muy bien.

    Sin embargo, el nivel gráfico, a mi juicio no llega al nivel de RE:5, (RE:5 usaba diretx 10, mientras el RE:6 "solo" el 9) que era excelente en toda regla.

    Igual que en el RE:5 aquí también hay modo Mercenarios, y Mercenarios sin piedad, modo de juego que llega a ser 'asfixiante' de la cantidad de ordas enemigas que intentan acabar contigo.

    En definitiva, un buen juego, aunque no tan pulido como el anterior, se aprecia el esfuerzo por dar al jugador una auténtica película jugable.

    This game has nothing to do with Resident Evil in a gameplay perspective, only the story continues. If you want a survival horror experience, you are wrong here. But if you want a good action game, you are welcome! A really good action third person shooter, especially with coop/splitscreen!

    La verdad es que la historia está muy muy bien, la aparición de tantos personajes y alusiones al pasado son la leche.

    En cuanto al gameplay, tiene el mejor gameplay de la saga sin duda, con muchísimas posibilidades, el movimiento es fluido, está muy bien optimizado para Pc y está muy logrado el sistema de apuntar.
    Puedes cambiar las cámara de la espalda y aumentar tu rango de visión (fov). Cabe destacar que la posibilidad para jugar a pantalla partida se agradece mucho, así como poder jugar cooperativo online.

    Muy grande por parte de Valve regalarnos los personajes de Left 4 dead 2 jugables para el modo Mercenarios Sin piedad, y gracias Capcom por no cobrarnos por ello, los DLC gratis son siempre bienvenidos.

    Finalmente es un juego que es muy recomendable para jugadores nuevos, o jugadores clásicos de RE.

    Podríamos decir que la campaña de Leon es la más fiel a los Resident Evil Clásicos, más zombies normales (no soldados mutantes), y luego especiales y puzzles.

    En cambio tenemos la de Chris Redfield, más enfocada a la acción en plan Gears Of War con tus soldados, escenarios de día, etc.

    Luego tenemos un poco la mezcla de Jake, con más toques de aventura. Y la campaña de Ada impresionante, muchos toques de sigilo e infiltración.

    Lo recomiendo muchísimo, no le doy un 10 porque me parece que se han pasado con lo de "Caza de agentes" y no tienen un sistema para controlar el VoIP. La gente entra a als partidas con el microfono abierto y los altavoces a tope, y se escuchan ecos terribles que arruinan la experiencia de juego, lo dicho.

    Time for a new review. I will preface this by saying firstly that I never liked the RE series. As with 99% of video games, the idea is a pale rip-off of a book or movie infected with the most ridiculous plot twits and lame attempts at sap-filled dialogue.

HOWEVER, on top of that, the horrible controls/gameplay of the first 3 RE games were as frustrating as trying to move a retarded American WW2 tank (which sucked compared to the Germans) in tight corridors where you never knew where exactly you would ignite a collision box.

    ANYWAYS, then came along re4, with again God-awful plot and bad guys but a great atmosphere (at least the first half) and great gameplay/surprise moments. Since then I have followed the series. RE5 was a disaster of laughable proportions. But I chipped in and bought RE6.

    RE6 is a movie where you ride in. Regardless of what you do, the game is the same, it is linear, and lots of quick time events. BUT, if you know this going INTO the game, then you know not to be disappointed!!! It is a fun movie that finds all new ways to jump the shark (or nuke the fridge) with over the top ways to try to kill you or blow things up and so on. This game is again a new departure for the series, and as is often the case- horror game series only stay horror games if they were finite and short. Once everyone becomes familiar with the game, the fan base becomes broader, it is very hard for the company to feel compelled to shrink the game and return to its horror 'roots.' Although I would be hard pressed to ever call the first few RE games horror, since they were campy as hell and stupid-predictable.

    They seem to have ripped many ideas from other genres, and game titles such as l4d- in fact I would think that is the direction they want to go into from here on. I would not be surprised if they had more crossovers in future titles after the l4d2 crossover coming out soon (capcom versus steam anyone?). But all these parodies and rip-offs work, and the good guys are good and the bad guys are really bad and they take different styles of RE gameplay and separate them in the different missions- Leons is more horror, Jake is more combat survival, and so on.

    Finally, the side games- agent hunt is silly as monster control is very very awkward and dare I say a little frustrating. COOP!!!! Super kudos to the game for allowing LOCAL COOP!!!! A tremendous boon, making the PC once again feel more dominant than the consoles for the graphics, HDMI cable or wireless support to my big screen tv and keyboard controller support. Not to mention the fact that all the added content got unlocked since we all pre-ordered the dam thing :D :D...

    All in all, I support this game, it is a fun movie ride, takes a long time to finish, and since I do not sit here for hours playing games at a time, this game will last me a long time before I get bored.    … Expand

    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]
