Really Bad

Lack of saves

The "save" opportunities are few and far between. I like playing games in smaller doses, and RE6 doesn't let you save your place often enough. Killed it for me.

I think most of the bad reviews for this game come from cod fans who don't like change, they would rather play the same game year after year. As you all know resident evil has been changing since resident evil 4 released back in January 2005. Although i love the original resident evil style, i think the changes they made were necessary to keep fun and diverse game play. The biggest change which is switching the camera angle to a third person over the shoulder view really makes game play alot easier and less frustrating . Resident evil 6 took this and added to it to give you more control over your character as now you can dodge , duck , dip , dive and dodge as you shoot through hordes of a wide variety of enemies not just brain dead foe. Another change that was made that i thought was very useful is hand to hand combat, as we all know ammo can sometimes be scarce in resident evil games so having another means to kill is warmly welcomed :note resident evil 4 and 5 started to include this but it was limited to counters. Now you can start brawling with zombies anytime you want instead of having to time the counters. Anyways i could go on alot longer but the main point im trying to make is change is good and thats what this game has done success fully. I recommend renting this game if not buying it because it has a great coop (even split screen which is rare now days) and great replay value do to the returning mercenaries mode. 9/10

Such a disappointment.

The good stuff. 4 Campaigns! YES! All Co-op! Totally awesome.

Leon: Okay, classic character. The closest thing to resemble Zombies in a RE game since 4. Helena is okay. Still not scary.

Chris: Okay, classic character, no more muscles. Drinking problem!? Piers is... unimportant. J'avo are awful. All action, everyone compares it to COD and they're not wrong.

Jake: Not too bad. A little ridiculous. Nemesis guy is no Nemesis, but a decent attempt I suppose. Shelly is offsets Jakes ridiculousness by being rather useless. But whatever. J'avo still ruin everything.

Ada: Okay.

Mercenaries Mode aka Horde Mode, aka, LAME/Unoriginal.

Graphics are actually worse than 5, and the gameplay is significantly worse. It's very cheap. Capcom cheap. Dragon's Dogma cheap. Dead Rising cheap.

It feels like they built this game on left over tech from Lost Planet and Dead Rising. Not good. Not good at all.

There's so many characters in this series now. They don't kill any off, just move on to more and more characters. STUPID.

Not scary. And UNLIKE 5, it's not even a good action game. It's a mediocre action game with some stuff stolen from COD and the name RE attached to it.

This series has lost all of what made it good. All of it. It began to peel away at 4... and then moreso at 5 but was still good. Now, it's over.

There were some great opportunities for what's in this game. They just got lazy, rushed, cut corners or work for a company like Capcom where they don't make good games to begin with.

Play at your own risk. Co-Op makes it more bearable.
