Alright, so I beat all three storylines (I jumped from chapter to chapter, ie once I was done with leon's chapter 1, I went on toward chris, then jake, it was cool seeing the story unfold in that way).

I LOVED this game. Let me get one thing straight; I have been playing resident evil since 1...err, 0...not wait, 1, yeah, 1. I love the new direction they are taking with this series, I love the mobility your character has. It is a breath of fresh air. Kinda funny that a game with the most horrendus movement in gaming history came out with a game with the BEST mobility! I did not ever feel constrained while playing this game, IE like in Mass 3 where you tried to do something, and your char did another.

This game is just pure epic. And yes, Leon's storyline did give me flashbacks back to the old school resi's. It's like the old school resi's, but they beat up the guy who came up with the fixed camera thing. Also, the puzzles are in spirit from the old school games, but they are much easier.

I don't understand the hate the game is getting. Oh well. All that matters is I am having fun with it, their loss!

Oh, and I LOVE Helena's quick shot with her hydra. Very cool!

Yeah, I gave up making an account there after the third failed attempt. Went through that crap with COD Elite, not gonna do it with another game.

I'm just going to wait for the PC version. The RE5 port was good so shouldn't be any problems there. By the time they release that it will likely be some Gold Edition too or whatever.

Okay, question to those playing co-op: for cutscene QTEs, is it required that both players succeed? Or just one? I don't remember how it worked in RE5, but then I was playing couch-co-op, this time it'll be online. I'd just hate the thought of progress being stalled by the fact that we both want QTEs to die horrible deaths. If just one of us has to do it right, I think we'll be good.

^ Yes, both players in co-op must succeed to proceed. If one misses the buttons, the other one that (would have) lived yells their name, and you get to see the 'sorry chump, you're dead' screen, and reload from the last checkpoint.

They're not that difficult, though, and the checkpoints seem to be pretty frequent.

Bwahahahaha. I love how just about everyone who is actually playing the game is enjoying it. Only trolls, those who just played the demo, and/or idiots who are just going along with the crowd are trashing this game.

You lose, Metacritic - most people enjoy this game, and all the 0/10 review bombings in the world will not change it.

BTW... did you like being stalked by Nemesis in RE3? You're gonna love Jake's campaign, then. That's all I will say about that.

Dang it. I was hoping for just the host player. Oh well, I've just been informed that if I buy the game before the price drops, I'll be playing solo. 

I'm gonna wait anyway, I've bought a few games this year that I regret paying full price for. It is promising that people seem to be enjoying RE6, but I just can't justify myself paying 60 bucks for a game that I really didn't enjoy the demo of.

I don't blame anyone for doing that - the game is a hella fun tbh but you can do without playing it for a while until the price goes down.

I'd like to add that this game is pretty big. Each campaign, while having the same basic controls and gameplay elements, is unique and provides a different experience and perspective on the game's events. You're sorta getting three games in one, with each campaign lasting... say... 8 to 10 hours.

Right now, I have to say I think I might like Jake's campaign the best. It stands apart from Leon's RE1/RE2/RE3/RE4 mashup (best way I can describe it) and Chris's RE5.5 campaign. Jake plays like Wesker in an extended game of Mercenaries, with a Nemesis-type BOW pursuing you throughout. There is even a stealth bit involved in his campaign. The characters and storyline are a bit more engaging as well IMHO. It is quite fun.

I'm still not that far into game but the Leon campaign is feeling more and more like classic RE, loving it. One major issue though, is when you arrive at certain building Helena wanted you to go to, you do classic RE puzzle and essentially allow survivors to be infected, kind of disturbing.

*SPOILER*

There is a fourth campaign where you play as Ada Wong. It is as long as the other three campaigns and reveals some important information about the main storyline. It's sorta like Separate Ways from RE4 (albeit much more fleshed out) as you often aid the other protagonists indirectly while making your way to your personal goal.

Since you do not have a partner in this campaign, and have a less impressive selection of weapons (ammo is also hard to come by), it is definitely the most difficult campaign.

I don't know if anything else happens after this campaign - I'm hoping for some more loose ends to be tied and for a bit more closure, but I'm not so certain that's how things will end up. I'll find out soon enough, I guess.

strange. i actually enjoy the game alot and i hated 5. the only problem with the controls is the stupid cover system and being a left handed character. leons story was alot of fun but chris' story is kinda annoying. havent tried jakes yet so ill get back to ya on that. my opinion, it does not deserve this much hate

I've only played the first chapter of Leon's campaign. I'm playing co-op with my husband, so I'm a slave to when he's "in the mood" to play. Image IPB

I have beaten the game, but I'm not quite sure what my final verdict will be. The game was a lot of fun... but there are a few things that bother me, and some other things I'm not sure how to feel about just yet.

I will say that I think the "ending" is not really the actual ending. Capcom is hiding something, likely in the form of DLC, and also leaving it very much open for RE7.

The storyline also bugs me a bit in some parts - it doesn't appear to do much in terms of advancing the series' overall mythos, and there were a few loose ends in RE5 that I thought would be tied up in RE6, but were never mentioned.

Not that this is something exclusive to RE6 - just about all of the RE games leave loose ends that sometimes go on for several games before being tied, and in some cases are never brought up again at all. It's also not the first game to do little to nothing to advance the mythos. It's why the RE series is not known for having a good storyline. LOL.

Either way, the overall storyline left something to be desired. Details were filled in over the course of the campaigns, but were still sparse and not as fleshed out as I would've liked.

Still, the game was fun and the story was engaging enough to keep me interested. Now, if I had to rank the different campaigns from best to worst, they'd go like this:

1. Jake
2. Chris
3. Leon/Ada (both were about equal in enjoyment)

Jake's features some unique stealth and (very fun) hand-to-hand sequences, and has a more engaging storyline and characters. It is definitely the best campaign. Chris's comes close behind as far as the action factor and storyline (though it is a bit cheesy) is concerned, and Leon's tries to be a lot of things but delivers only some of them well. Ada is more of a "behind the scenes" deal where you find out WTH is really going on with "Neo-Umbrella" and whatnot. It is very stealth-focused and more difficult than the other campaigns.

I'm still not sure how to rate the game as a whole, though. I'll think on it for a little while longer before giving a final score... likely over lunch as I'm starving.

I'm gonna give my final verdict. It was a solid and highly entertaining action game in the vein of RE4 and 5, with some elements of the first three RE games thrown in for good measure. It was very ambitious in its attempt to spread the game across four intersecting eight hour campaigns with four distinct playstyles for each, and while that didn't always work out smoothly, it was still fairly well done for the most part.

The only real problems this game has are the absurd number of QTEs in Leon's campaign (and only Leon's campaign), the wonky cover system, some ridiculously bombastic action sequences (even by RE standards), and a somewhat cheesy and underwhelming storyline. I'm also a bit put off by the "open-endedness" of the game, but I suppose it allows Capcom plenty of wiggle room for RE7 and probably some DLC.

On the whole though, this was a good game, and just about all of the hate it's getting isn't even remotely grounded in reality. Sadly, the only way to prove that is for people to actually play the damn thing, but most seem content to keep trash talking the game without knowing jack s*** about it. Such is the way of Resident Evil games and Internet trolls, I guess - but the people who've actually played it know the truth... and the truth is the game is hella fun tbh.

Final score: 8.1/10

Lol I don't mind her being older. But why making her wear those clothes from back then? Minus fan service at least.

Characters that appeared earlier in the series tend to have alt outfits that reflect what they wore in the older games in later iinstallments. Case in point, Chris's Code VERONICA and S.T.A.R.S getup unlockable in REmake and RE5 respectively, Jill's RE3 attire in REmake and Leon and Ada's RE2 outfits unlockable in RE4. Though Sherry's does seem a bit hilarious and over the top.

Does anyone know good sites that review games? I hear a lot of crap about IGN and I want to know what other sites to avoid/visit for good reviews.

RE6 it`s a bit like oldschool Metallica vs the New Metallica. Even if  New School Metallica is quite good music by some '' mainstream standard'' it`s not what I like. So yes it`s can be quite upsetting when what you enjoyed just change for the sake of keeping up with what the mainstream want Some call it innovation or evolution.

Take Duke Nukem  It`s received very bad critic because it`s did try to stay true to his origin. Mainstream critic blasted it while the niche marked enjoyed it. Same just happenned with RE6. The niche hated it and the mainstream enjoyed it. Mainstream can be great . Since the purpose of mainstream is exactly to give something that most will actually love.

I have sympathy for game reviewer or movie reviewer. It`s not easy to do because It`s contextual. the mainstream judge video game with a mainstream mentality and  the niche do the same.  Yes there`s immature people everywhere who`re very impulsive.Who treat other with disgust when they show different opinion. I think it`s mostly because some folk out there have difficulty to express their emotion and when you feel ''unheard or not understand'' it`s can be frustrating.. Hey I was a teen once.

Did not buy RE6 and watched over 2 hours of gameplay just like I never bough new Metallica album. Although even if it pain me to see what I used to enjoy take a different route .. I just do the same. Take different route.

i just shrug it off and move on. Happy that some people find pleasure in it but, I can`t. mental block

If Resident Evil was Megadeth then RE6 would be their Risk album, and that album was hated by just about everyone.

The thing about the jibbering jelly brains of whom enjoyed this game don't seem to understand, is that despite their satisfaction for the series current direction, Capcom have done better. Being an apologist for the games lack of integrity and functionability will not send Capcom the message that this is simply not an acceptable gaming experience. If you support mediocrity then don't expect anything to ever improve or raise the bar in terms of what was once and extrodinary and unique horror experience.

I'll send whatever "message" I like to Capcom, thanks - my message is that I thought the game was fun. That's all I care about. I don't need to prove anything to you, nor am I obligated to join the rabble in senselessly bashing a game most people haven't even played (but are content to trash talk it anyway).

And for the record, RE games were never "scary." They were good with dark, creepy atmospheres and at going "boo!" when you least expected it (something RE6 manages to recapture a bit of BTW) but they were never "scary" in a true sense.

Ah, but more than that, RE games were always "mediocre." Clunky controls, annoying camera, laughable voice acting, cheesy scripts, cliched storylines.... pretty much everything that was "wrong" with RE6, except people seem to have selective memory when it comes to the RE games, and it's hip to hate the last two games in the series.

Now I'm sorry you didn't like the game, but your "critique" (and most of the other "critiques" on teh Internets) is exaggerated as hell and skewed by nostalgia. I've been with the series since REmake and have played every single one in the main series since then - I know my Resident Evil, matey, and not a single one of them are 10/10 games. Not one. Most aren't even worth a 9/10. They are an acquired taste, and Capcom knows that. It's why they decided to revamp the series in the first place.

And you know what? It worked. RE4 is the most critically acclaimed of the RE games, and RE5 sold very well... and RE6 will probably do the same, despite all the nerd rage and review bombings. Meanwhile, most of the people who are playing the game will enjoy it as it should be - it's a damn fun game.
