    After a hundred hours spent with RE6 I’m still hungry for more. While others complain that Resident Evil reached the gutter, I’m in love with the Mercenaries mode and superb combat system that lets you create unbelievable encounters. [06/2016, p.59]

    Resident Evil 6 is the franchise's installment with more action, and now it comes to the next generation with a fairly low price, enhanced graphics that are more realistic and exclusive content that can be only seen in this generation of consoles.

    Resident Evil 6 looks great running at 1080p and 60 FPS. Capcom's game comes fully loaded, with all of its content available from the very beginning, which guarantees many non-stop hours of fun. Probably not the best game of the series and it doesn't offer any changes besides the visuals, but it offers action and enjoyment without complications, being the most ambitious Resident Evil entry in the franchise.

    The same game that we played a few years ago on old-gen consoles, but adapted to modern day hardware and with a lot of extra content. This one may not be the best RE out there, but it's still enjoyable.

    The same game we played on PS3 and Xbox 360, but with better graphics and all DLCs included. Focused on action, it moves away from terror to search the spectacle.

    As a game, you know what to expect of RE6 by now. If you are willing to accept its more action-focused gameplay and the lack of horror, RE6 is actually an interesting game with a lot of content, and this remaster makes it look better than even on consoles.

    Fantastic port of the PC version to PS4. Frame rate is rock solid. Overall experience much better than the PS3 version. Like many great games,Fantastic port of the PC version to PS4. Frame rate is rock solid. Overall experience much better than the PS3 version. Like many great games, RE6 has minor design niggles, but the overall experience is so amazing and rich that they're easily forgivable because none of them are really significant. Grand Theft Auto San Andreas had some horrid, frustrating missions, and I wouldn't hesitate to give it 10/10, so I don't hesitate to give this game 10/10 either.

    Hopefully the game gets a fairer reception this time.

So, to be bias, I've never liked Resident Evils 1 - 3 because of it's stiff camera and controls, which never made those games for me. So, to be fair, I'm not a fan or familiar of Resident Evil with it's scary roots, so I look at this game as a simple third-person shooter just like Gears of War and what not. And to me, the game runs really smooth, no glitches, no bugs, still glad that they made your partner not contributing to your game overs from Resident Evil 5. True, it's linear, but so was Crash Bandicoot so those nitpicks don't get to me. Overall, I really enjoyed it, and I understand where this game isn't for purist fans. But I'm not one of them, so that's why I rate this game higher than them. Full Review »

    Resident Evil 6 is a sprawling epic of a game with fantastic combat mechanics and a massive amount of content.

    Once you have learned the complex control system you have a quite unprecedented amount of control over your character, and wading through enemies using all the techniques available to you feels fantastic.
