    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.

    Not 1 of the worst games out there, but definitely 1 of the worst Resident Evils.

    It is more action oriented, and I understand people complaining about it, but if you get used to it, you can still enjoy it.

    Resident Evil 6 was engaging but as a fan of the series i didn't like how this game turned out so much, Okay the zombies were unique, the graphics is great, the plot and the settings gives you a nostalgic vibe of resident evil 1 2 & 3 but that's it about the good points.

    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

    Story 5/10 your general resident evil fare, secret evil incorporated wants to destroy the world for some reason, and thinks it's going to be a better place afterwards

    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....

    Overall it's a decent game, not the best but FAR from the worst, put your brain aside and enjoy it with a friend

    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

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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))

    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

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).

In order to duck and get behind cover you need to press LT and A at the same time and you need to hold them! That´s annyoing, don´t use the cover system its annyoing. 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. I suggest to buy this game because of it´s fun but only for about 15 bucks. Wait for steam sale or buy it cheap on Amazon.… 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. Sheer desperation made me mention how hard it was in a forum, and IThe 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. 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

The camera controls just somehow don't feel right giving the character a feeling of being perpetually dizzy when aiming. But that again I could have dealt with. The default keyboard and mouse control scheme is horrific (Z S D X for movement? really?) but that can be rebound without to much of a hassle. The clincher for me is the quick time events. They are legion, without fail every time that I was grappled by a zombie (which was often since i'm not particularly good at RE games) there were 1-2 (yes 2) quick time events(QTE) to get the zombie off and that I can not deal with. I appreciate the cinematic qualities of a QTE and they have their place in games, such as the end of a major boss fight, but not every single flipping time a zombie gets close. For me that just comes across as busywork and a lack of creativity on the part of the developers. I would rather play a game where if I so much as get touched by a zombie I die than have QTE's constantly bombarding me.

    The sound the sound quality is pretty nice as are some of the atmospheric animations (like the character wincing at a surprise lighting crack outside). Sadly however the game is nigh unplayable for me due to the depth of my hatred of the terrible practice that is QTE's they ruin any possibility of fun for me they occur with such regularity.

    If QTE's and a slightly wonky control scheme don't bug you you'll probably have a really good time with the game the atmosphere is by far the best in the business. If however either of those things is a deal-breaker for you then save your money and pick up Left for Dead 2 if you don't already have it.    … Expand

    I could not find myself to finish this game. It's depressingly boring. I played through the entirety of Leon's campaign, which was okay, had a few scares. Chris's campaign was a complete bore fest and caused me just to give up on the game. I am disappointed Capcom. I really looked forward to this game.

    Failure. All the good elements of past parts are gone and the game is not optimized for PC. Unpleasant design and graphics, boring storyline, gameplay and soundtrack, dump AI and puzzles. Loads of bad, overlong quick-time events. It's not a fun shooter, it's not a horror game, it doesn't really feel like a survivor game either! The worst game in the RE series.

    Repetitive and boring. Few options for weapons, plenty of ammo and simply no scare to justify a horror survival titlle. There are no puzzles to be solved. Not recommend.

    The problem with this game is, it doesn't feel like a resident evil game. Massive action sequences, dull story, ridiculous enemies.

    Resident evil was once king of the survival horror realm; however the only horror you'll find here is in its numerous quick time events and poor excuse for a story, "C-virus cough cough".

    Its ultimately tries to be something big but stumbles even bigger.

    -clumsy controls (you will kick into space often)
    -loss of control of protagonist (most damage incurred feels "cheap" and unavoidable)

    Essentially this is a step back for the series; where as Resident Evil 4 and 5 had horror and action elements, this has almost only action. The best way I can describe it: whether you are playing RE1 on the PS1, or RE5 on the PC, by the end of the game you are far more skilled at dispatching enemies. The cheap hits preclude this skill curve and you will feel no more adept at the end of the game than in your first hour. I can say that this was first Resident Evil that genuinely not fun to play a few hours, which is surprising considering the obvious expense and time it took developing the game.

    Capcom; please enlist more play-testers from multiple nationalities if you want to continue this franchise, preferably some who can give you the raw truth as to whether your game is fun or not before pushing it out the door.    … Expand

    I have loved the RE franchise since RE2. I've been a long time fan and was looking forward to playing this game... that is... until I played it. To be fair, the mercenaries mode is still a lot of fun, especially with a (human) partner; but the campaign is largely frustrating and repetitive.

I've been a long time fan and was looking forward to playing this game... that is... until I played it. To be fair, the mercenaries mode is still a lot of fun, especially with a (human) partner; but the campaign is largely frustrating and repetitive.

    List of Complaints:

    Some cutscenes occur during a fight and leave you actually getting killed during a scene wherein you cannot control your player.

    The random forced camera angles to show you your target destination is a nice touch, but again, it will happen during fight scenes and leave you stranded, unable to keep the enemy in your sights while you're getting shot.

    The controls are less intuitive than previous games. While running, the character cannot seem to corner without first running against a wall for several steps. While walking or jogging, the character will often times move in a completely different direction than the direction you are wanting to go for the first several steps.

    The computer controlled players hardly ever do what you ask them to do and also let you die quite frequently without helping you. When they do help you, it's with a shot that only gets you back on your feet, there is no way for them to actually heal you. You also can't control what weapon(s) your AI controlled partner uses like in RE5 so they will fight bosses with the weakest weapon possible.

    The new in-game menu is way too much for in-flight response.

    In all campaigns you will find yourself walking slowly (or swimming) through entire sections of the story, unable to fire weapon, unable to run, it's just filler time, and what seems to be a huge waste of time. It seems that this was done to enhance the "fear factor" of the game. This works fine for the first playthrough but once you have finished a playthrough, these scenes seem arbitrarily long and quite dull, not to mention all too frequent.

    The addition of more vehicles would have been a nice touch if the creators could have actually made them more user friendly. However, it seems that the poor controls that plague the characters in this game become exponentially worse with the player controlled vehicles.

    Upgrading weapons in this game is far less rewarding for two reasons. 1) even the strongest weapons seem to be somewhat ineffective against even normal enemies, and 2) different campaigns have a lot of different weapons. This was cool at first but if you're a player like me that favors one particular weapon, and then there is an entire campaign in which you cannot use it, this makes for a much less rewarding experience to earn the points to buy the upgrades for your weapon of choice.

    RE5 had a few annoying spots during cutscenes where it seemed like you're pushing buttons more than being captivated by the story, but it wasn't terrible. RE6, however, has taken this annoyance to another level and has made it a complete burden. I found that throughout the story (all 4 stories), I was not enjoying the fullness of the story because I was so distracted by pushing buttons that it took away from the richness that should be felt.

    Needs to breakup the story line more like RE5 did. Not everyone had 1.5-2 hours per stage to play every day. I made time, but it felt forced, it's not because I wanted to take that long on one level.

    Where is the Rocket Launcher for completing the game in under 5 hours? Sure this isn't something that every player enjoys, but when you work hard to get an awesome reward so you can one-hit kill a boss every once in a while, it should feel rewarding. Again, going back to weapon upgrades from earlier, you never quite feel rewarded... at least, not at the level of prior games.

    With so much negative, is there any positive? Yes.

    The added ability to dodge-roll from enemy attacks is nice.

    Some of the new enemies being more difficult is also fun (within reason).

    Although some critics complained that the story was too large having 4 campaigns, I felt like it was finally a game returning to the old days when it took longer to beat a good game. Had this game been everything I had hoped it would be, the length to complete it would have been welcomed.

    Mercenaries (almost) makes up for the disappointment of the campaign, almost.    … Expand

    -The Action button and the run button are the same button, enjoy climbing stairs up and down over and over because you want to run but instead he climbs back up/down.
    -Ammo/Healingwares drop/position is unbalanced crap. Sometimes you'll be loaded with ammo with your buddy having none, sometimes you will be completely out in front of a really strong enemy.

    -There's no weapon upgrade (HUGE LETDOWN)
    -The "secrets" are few and dull.
    -There are an awful lot of "running" stages where your life will depend exclusively on how the AI will behave.
    -Zombies who can barely walk and say *bwgrbhgbh* will be able to fly military choppers like veterans.
    -You'll have your gun ready to fire a bullet straight in Ada's head blowing her damn brain everywhere but *SPOILER* you won't.
    -The invasion mechanic is broken, because it alters the amount of enemies and the player controlled ones aren't just more dangerous but will respawn indefinitely and if you die they'll restart the mission with you like a living nightmare. So if you want to play this piece of **** game, be sure to turn that off.
    -The ending is pointless.
    -the team actions are plain dumb, they're not bad or anything they just look so stupid. You'll often have to lean against a door with your buddy to proceed just to get teleported 10 ft away with a cutscene of a totally random guy opening the door for you will play.
    -The enemy placement is very bad, sometimes there will be enemies shooting you from behind walls or grating that you won't be able to spot.

    Overall, the worst resident evil by far. Clunky, very annoying, stupid on so many levels and just uninspired, with trivial plot twists and average cutscenes/acting.

RE6 had all of these, but it took out everything else that complimented the gameplay in an attempt to add prospective through different characters.

    What the game has that is completely different is the separate stories. Each follows there own character, and includes bits and pieces of a larger picture that is the story. This was a bad move, because it seemed to make Capcom completely overlook the things that complimented RE 4 and 5.

You eventually find new ones, but you end up using only the guns you have ammo for, making the need for some weapons vanish. Each character in the individual stories have their own weapons and the stories give them new weapons accordingly, however it all follows the same basic agenda. There is a shotgun, sniper, assault rifle, pistol etc.

    Well maybe the new story idea panned out, and it worked by including a gripping tale right? RE6 does nothing but show you a generic story that is very predictable if you are a fan of the series. When you complete a story, it just feels like you played a game but skipped levels, and the ending of each story isn't enough for me to really get excited over playing another 5-7 hour campaign just to have to wait again. Sure some new plot is revealed, but all in all, the pacing just doesn't work. It would have been better if there was one campaign where you felt like you were actually getting somewhere.

    Some of the things they kept from the previous titles were turned into overused events that did nothing but make you want to turn off your computer. The MILLION of button mashing events will annoy you, and detract from the gameplay a lot. There is also the new inventory system which is annoying to use, and rather small (it is even a step down from RE5) There is also the ability to kick and apply your body more. This is a pretty cool addition, that would have been welcomed in the previous games, but it just isn't enough to make up for everything.

    There is a lot to say about this game, and if you can look past the annoying gameplay, slow and anti climactic story, and no way of seeing anything new other than a few kicks, than this is the game for you. If you liked RE4 and 5, chances are you will not like this    … Expand

Complete rubbish thats why!!!

    Honestly, this game sounds and looks great from the trailers down to the artwork. But the moment you play it, the game play itself is choppy not to mention the graphics. Tearing and unneeded shadowing appears right in front of you. Even enhancing the brightness levels can ruin the game visually for you. Also you might as well put on subtitles as the sound is very distorted. Even with a 5.1Honestly, this game sounds and looks great from the trailers down to the artwork.

Even with a 5.1 or enhanced headset, voices are almost nonexistent. The story line has its fair of twist and turns like any other resident evil. Cinematic game play always leave you at the edge of your chair. Good selection of weapons as well. I personally love resident evil and playing this made me think it may be possible that the resident evil franchise is done.… Expand

    Resident Evil 6 was yet another blow to Capcom's reputation. This thing was AWFUL!

BTW this game is not horror at all. It's pure action. As many explosions happen in this... it's just... yeah.

    If it had a decent story I'd talk about it but right now I'm still trying to figure out what I just played and why I played it. Maybe it's because I paid money for this turd. It's extremely generic. Bad guys are at it again. Go stop them. No idea how they got their resources or who the bad guy really is I'm still confused about a lot.

    I only remember the characters that were in Resident Evil 1 2 and 3. Beyond that I don't know who the hell was in this and nor will I ever be able to recall them. The voice acting was poor, their impact was poor, the overall placement of them was poor.

    Well the game has decent graphics and visuals so I gotta give them credit for that. The zombies and monsters were really well detailed. Only everything was exploding everywhere. Just like an American action film. Can't figure out good plot? Blow everything the hell up! There were at times polygon errors. One time Ada's dressed stretched into the ground, my gun disappeared, and I fell through the level a few times.

    Gameplay was just polished RE4. Nothing new or something to talk about. It handles really well and overall it was great feeling. The controls on PC were a tad wonky at times like I said with poor porting and what not. It has multiplayer? I don't know. I was so disgusted after the campaign I uninstalled it quick.

    This game presented little challenge. I had no problem beating this game on... what was the highest difficulty at the start? We'll just say Very Hard. Ammo was barely enough so it has some prretty good challenge there.

    Would I recommend this game. NO!    … Expand

    I wanted to love this game, I truly did... But, I used to be a RE Fan, then i took a QTE in the knee...

    I loved the hell out of the series before this game, i still play my PSX copy of RE:DC and RE 2, I play Raccoon city somewhat regularly, because i love the atmosphere, feel, and the story of the game... But this Abomination we know as Resident Evil 6... Does not deserve to be called a    I wanted to love this game, I truly did... But, I used to be a RE Fan, then i took a QTE in the knee...

    I loved the hell out of the series before this game, i still play my PSX copy of RE:DC and RE 2, I play Raccoon city somewhat regularly, because i love the atmosphere, feel, and the story of the game... But this Abomination we know as Resident Evil 6... Does not deserve to be called a Game, It should be called a torture device, Where someone invites their friend who does not know better, For some "Co-Op".

    -The good:

    -Graphics: 7/10 are not as good as you would think, but they get their job done, and are not overly polished Except the ice, and snow (after a certain snow mobile chase) which sometimes looks like polished marble or "desert glass"

    -Sounds: I would rate them 7/10. They are good, but they could be better, especially some of the weapon sounds... just sound odd.

    -Atmosphere of the game,6/10 (Jake and sherry 9/10). the campaign with jake and sherry, has a nice atmosphere, and i think they nailed it with that one.... the others, not so much.

    Now the bad....

    The controls: Are just awfull, and most of the time you get screwed over by them, not to mention, you do not have the freedom of opting out from key combinations, you have to have some Combined keys in bindings, othervise the game snarles at you and tells you "some keys have not been configured" and does not let you get out of the bindings menu until they are -.-

    QTE: I like a good QTE here and there.... But when they shovel them down your throat at the same pace as you goble minutes for game time.... That is just too much. Not to mention alot of the QTE's and action scenes, have elements which you have no control over, which end up killing you, either due to crappy level design, or bad camera angle, or colliding with your partner.... Yeah, even when running, you touch your partner = you get slowed down a bit -.-

    Weapon and inventory system; Just fugly, cant say anything else about, you have to experience it yourself...

    The skill point system: not only is it reduntant(you in no way need to have skills to beat the campaigns)
    You wount be able to acces most of the skills during your first 2 campaigns anyway, Take for example Melee skill upgrade, level one takes 11K skill points, does not sound that much, except the character you want to use it with, jake, hes campaign will be about 50% done when you get that... Yeah, level 2 takes 22500 points if i remember correctly, Yeah... Get the point?

    The physics of the game; This is the one have the most grief with, Imagine a hole, You see it, You step closer, you get to 2-3 meters from the hole... And you get an animation that shows you falling down to it -.- that is basically the physics of this game in a nutshell... Anything even slightly dangerous looking, assume it is alive, and has telekinetic vortex or something that sucks you in if you go anywhere near. Oh and holes and ledges, assume they are blackholes during the action sequences.

    Last but not least, The stupid combat system: Unless you take the combat block upgrade... You are out of stamina after 5-7 melee moves -.- this is especially annoying with jakes campaign, since he has some awesome moves :( like a piledriver.

    If you are a resident evil fan, Dont play this game, unless you are into Masochism    … 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.
