Resident Evil 6

If you ever had the weird desire to see what would happen if Michael Bay directed a horror video game, I think Resident Evil 6 fulfills that urge. It's dumb, sloppy, makes no sense, is loud, explosive, and at times it can be quite fun. It sort of breaks the "stupidity meter" allowed for the franchise I would argue, which is a mighty big accomplishment.

WHAT POSITIVES?

A lot of weapons. Interesting storyline makes you think. Interesting varied sequences of fights with bosses.

WHAT NEGATIVES?

Quicktime ivent's were sometimes very difficult and appeared for a split second. The sensitivity of the mouse left a lot to be desired and there was no way to change it in the settings. Changing the camera often made the character change direction (and that doesn't help in time escape sequences). Timed missions were almost impossible in co-op.

UNTAPPED POTENTIAL!

If the game had more chapters or some FABULAR additional content then RE6 would only benefit!

I very much liked the Resident Evil game that came before this one the same year, that game being Resident Evil: Revelations (2012), that game combined both of my favorites in the series, that being the first Resident Evil game and Resident Evil 4 (2005), and made a creepy fun game; the game that follows in the same year was not the best in the series, but it was not anywhere near being bad. The game Resident Evil 6 (2012) had characters that were enjoyable enough to play by having familiar ones and new ones, the gameplay mechanics are easy enough to use, the graphics are well-done, and I did have fun playing the game; a major issue that can be found in this is the same issue that was found in the game Resident Evil 5 (2009), and it is that this game is more action focused and less survival horror focused like most of the Resident Evil games are supposed to be, which is why this game is hated on by Resident Evil fans who have played it.

Playing as Leon S. Kennedy or his partner in the first campaign and Chris Redfield or his partner in the second campaign was cool, and I like how on both campaigns they are aiming to get rid of or deal with a new virus that has been made and spread around the city, despite having separate ways in doing so and going after a person to save/protect or hurt them. The third campaign where you play as new character Jake Muller who has a significant role in the premise involving the new C-Virus and him having a connection with a character from previous Resident Evil games; he would sometimes be fine to play as, but also needed more characterization, along with his new partner Sherry Birkin who also was from the previous games. Lastly, the fourth and last campaign is where you play as Ada Wong who is on her own kind of mission that connects to the other three campaigns, it is mostly just her finding out certain information that ties back to her in some way and fight back against the new Neo Umbrella.

Each campaign goes a different route in the story and somehow connects to one another in the end, just not as well as it should, and they each have a different length when it comes to playing each one, with Leon and Chris's campaigns being the longer ones and Jake and Ada's campaigns being the shortest ones to playthrough; the story in all the campaigns do feel disjointed as it jumps to a different point in time as you progress through the story ending a chapter. The mechanics were not difficult to use and the way the game looks is well-done, with nice looking graphics and what not; the other major problem, other than the story and some errors in the game, is that the game is more action focused with big over the top action sequences with infected people and mutants, when it should have kept going with the survival horror focus that made us love the Resident Evil video game franchise to begin with.

The action focus is going to turn Resident Evil fans away from playing this game again or at all, which makes sense, but it did not make me upset because I did have fun playing the game, even though the main story can be a bit messy with some errors during cutscenes and missing the horror survival focus the games are supposed to have. Lastly, the game has easy to understand mechanics and puzzles with nice looking graphics and enjoyable enough main characters, so I will say it is worth playing at least once; I understand the hate for this game, but I did not think this game was awful, though this is one of the low points in the series next to the game Resident Evil 5 (2009), I did not hate this game like most people who have.

I like re6 so much because its a fun game and very enjoyable. I felt like in a different world , game play was perfect , story line was awesome, action was the best action video game in 2012 .

I will enjoy again when I play it again .

I know alot of people hated it because they comparing between the other . But guys play this game without thinking and comparing with the others franchise.

RE 6 is really special.

Thanks capcom.

First of all,I am resident evil fan.When released this game,I was very exciting and wanted to play it.But when after that my hopes destroied.When read comment I was very sad.It not resident evil.Capcom made something new,but it wasn't RE.Creators maybe thought,people needed more action in resident evil.After that we saw,cap com made serious mistake.They generally changed style and created third person shooter and not survival horror.I don't understand why creators forgot old traditions?Game play more fast than it was in older game series.This game good for TPS(Third Person Shooter),but bad for Resident evil.In this game other details are really attractive,good optimization,great graphic and normal game play.When you creating game with high budget,you must forget experiments.why cap com?why? Resident evil lost soul and became weak shooter.All scary moments disappear in darkness.RE 6 only has legendary name and nothing more,I hope future will good and bright.
