I don't care what anyone says; this game is fun as hell.
Gay*
It's an excellent 3rd person shooter with good mechanics, but it's a TERRIBLE Resident Evil game.
I think the consensus is that RE5 and 6 aren’t bad games, they’re just bad RE games, not because they’re not fun but because they’re way too action heavy and no longer feel like RE, they feel like a completely different series
Doesn't change the fact that its a bad re game?
@@Actionfigure_fit Because RE4 didn't have a giant robot? That seems pretty action heavy if you ask me. I'm sorry, too action heavy is a poor argument to claim something isn't a good RE game.
The movement in this game was so damn fun. Ducking, diving and dodging around felt so smooth.
I agree, younger me was so blown away with the gameplay
Helena with her Hydra 💕
The movement is terrible
@@cheesecracker9884 sure kiddo
More like the movement is useless and you do better without it
The gameplay is really fun and addicting, the graphics are pretty great for the time, and it was loaded with so much content. Four diffrent campaigns, tons of collectables, and several extra modes that are really addicting. What killed it was being called Resident Evil. If it was a new ip or anything else it would get a lot of praise.
Nah it was bad
@@JustSendMeLocationit tried to be too many things at once
Resident evil stories outside of the original are terrible.
Four different campaigns full of nonsense, scripted Hollywood
You're right, you could find something good in it... if it was called Call of Duty instead of Resident Evil
It's a good action game, but in my mind I expected a survival horror game called Resident Evil. So yeah it was that bad for Resident Evil games.
We already have TON of great action game out there.
Ada's campaign was intended to be the last played. Initially, you had to beat the other three campaigns to unlock Ada's campaign. An update to the game enabled you to play Ada's campaign whenever you chose after the intro segment.
Yeah it feels much better to play it as reward for doing all three first.
@@ThexXxXxOLOxXxXx I use to play a lot. But now I understand that Re6 was just so bad.
The cover art gets me everytime. I cant unsee it. That poor girl.
This game feels like 4 Resident Evil games each with their own theme and feel and I love that.
Its just like some action thriller movie nothing close to what Resident Evil is supposed to be. Like Re2 Remake
Idc what anyone says. This game is a blast! My fiancée played through these with me, which is a rarity with shooters. She loved them, too. Made for a fun couch coop experience.
It was so fun to play this co-op
This game isn't really supposed to be a shooter only game. It lost all the horror aspects and storyline.
@@rezz5570 I think you mean that the franchise shouldn’t be, and I get you. It’s by no means my favorite in the franchise, but I like the action approach more here.
is the co op or versus rather active in 2024? i was thinking about trying re6 as i saw alot of friends on list were playing re5 and operation racoon city recently. i like where there's a team deathmatch happening but with extra zombies on map for added distractions, i think it's team survivor is what it's called and i'm hoping that's in re6 as i'll enjoy that.
It's by no means perfect, but I feel this game got bad talked so much by the media, especially those who didn't even play it, and then no one gave it a chance. I enjoyed it a lot, and think it has some of the most emotional story beats in the whole franchise, especially in Chris' story like you mentioned. Very cool to see you give this game a fair shake, and even recommend it to people!
I played it. I tried to find the positive with the game and I can’t finished it. I wanted to experience the story in order. So I looked at a guide to get the order of each missions. So that way I can try everyone’s playstyle. It’s not good. I’m so glad capcom listened to the fans and went back to its roots.
"the media" gave it 7s and 8s out of 10 across the board.
Let's not rewrite history here....
@@ParanoiDave True, some did. Moreso on podcasts and videos over the years, it's just devolved to "that game sucks", "no one played it", "everyone hates it", etc.
for real i had the most fun with my best friend, first campaign was abit slow and scary second was full of action, the one where Piers died was very sad, i feel like in todays time people cant find there own opinion, they will enjoy something then look online and see that it got a general bad perception and then instantly had said thing.
@@3KURIS I literally formed my own opinion. I tried the game and it’s not a good game. I’m usually not critical of games but this game but I couldn’t find a positive thing to say about it.
I actually liked re6. I loved that they had 3 different stories and wasn’t lazy about it. All three stories connected to each other and they had A separate story for Ada.
right this game gets too much shit 🥲 I think the majority of it comes from the execution
4 stories's great value for the money and very smooth and cool mechanics and action, but definitely not survival horror if they named it differently maybe the reception would've been much better
Yes sir!!!
Epic game, only issue to me is that it drags after a while in the campaigns.
It's less clunky than RE5 but also a lot more disjointed, really fun solo and awesome in co-op. It had the ambitions to be a crazy and epic action game and if you allow yourself to indulge in its insanity and stupidity it can be an easy recommend
I would heavily disagree....
The camera angles and combat are subpar in comparison to 5 or 4....
Traded uppercuts & roundhouse kicks for silly ass Judo throws....
Chris' overhead slam throw was pretty good though 😆
I didn’t think it was as bad as everyone said. We all bought RE5 so CAPCOM thought we wanted a co-op action game and that’s what they gave us
To me as a fan, I think action is a natural progression this game is good to be.
You have a character that goes through that thing, of course they'll be afraid. Now they have grown to know the horror of the world, and we expect them to be the same scared kid that we met the first time?
Exactly what I thought and we can see that between the earlier games. From being able to dodge or do stun finishers RE6's gameplay was a natural progression imo.
Yes, I expect them to be goddam traumatized!
The characters were brave in the first games. The environment turned from survival horror to action shooter. It’s not about the character development.
No, then you switch characters.
@@rodrigoibaceta3938 to be fair, I think trauma may have a different response depending on the person and the situation
Re6 was so much fun! Honestly one of my fondest memories came from that game. It gave you so much and splitting it up between the different stories helped to alleviate burnout!
I played Resi 6 first time this summer. My only gripe with it , it's too long , 4 campaigns ! My favourite was actually Chris's and Ada's. I played the ps4 version so no idea on the 7th gen versions. What was really cool was the online is still very very much active even in 2023.
Too long ?! I wish all games where too long get my moneys worth
The mercenaries - no mercy mode with a friend is PEAK gaming
I think saying it was "the most popular" isn't the same thing as highest selling. It was literally HATED at release and was ridiculously high volume trade in within the first week or so of it
Right, this game was one biggest examples of why you should think twice before pre-ordering a game..
Exactly. Honestly, I think Matty is a really nice-seeming dude, but the guy lets his own nostalgia for games blind him and passes things off as fact when they're just what he believes to be fact based on what he likes. RE6 was LOATHED at launch, more so than it is now since time has been slightly kinder to it than other awful games. But Matty makes it out to be popular and like it was just a mixed reception. @@itaybashan3757
Who hated it ? You? Did u went to everyone and asked them if they hated it?
@@RTX4050Games Yea i loved it and still do to this day. But I know and understand why many didn't like it. For me at this point it was more loving the characters and story then wanting a survival horror experience.
@@RTX4050Gamesdude… it was pretty widely known that more people hated it than loved it. Otherwise we wouldn’t be having this discussion right now. Just because there’s a moderate amount of people who can look back on it more fondly these days with a lot of retrospect and a multitude of great releases since, it doesn’t change the fact that by and large this game was a massive letdown to fans at the time. In fact, I remember just how stoked people were when R.E.7 finally dropped and it was a banger. They were ecstatic AS A DIRECT RESULT OF/REACTION TO RE6!
Really fun game. A lot of the hate is a result of the bandwagon effect. 6 isn’t perfect, but people just love to hate on it because it’s the popular thing to do.
As a huge Resident Evil fan, I fucking love this game. It's just so insane and fun, I played through it and immediately played through it again with my best friend
I wouldn’t say it’s bad, just very different.
Same
Bro omg i swear to god your story of being pulled over is the exact same memory i have tied to RE6. I remember my brother driving to the game stop and we got pulled over for a busted tail light hah man hearing that was insane. Props good video!
RE6 is the RE that I have the most hours played in it because I played a lot of co-op and mercenaries. It was buggy and stepped away from the survival horror genre, but it was still fun for me and the people that I played with. So maybe not a great RE game, but wasn't a terrible game in general.
Great to play thru with my buddy on launch. I never see anybody talking about drop in gameplay where if someone was playing parallel to your campaign they would be playing as their characters in your game for that segment it only happened a couple times to me but it was ambitious
Happy Halloween to Matty and the community!
I have a soft spot for RE6. I don’t hate it, don’t like it as much as 5, but as a couch co op or online games go, it’s up there as a decent co op game. I do also like how the stories intertwine. It’s like the Simpson’s episode where it feels 3 different stories, but all connect in some ways. It’s called trilogy of error which is also based on a twilight zone
I had THE MOST fun with this game back in the day. It’s literally 4 full campaigns. Playing with a friend and running into another group of 2 was AWESOME!
I appreciate how you find the good in games that were widely panned. In that regard, you remind me of Happy Console Gamer when he's at his best.
Cooperative was amazing so many good memories playing with my brothers not only that it was my first resident evil so I’ll always have a soft spot for it and would like more coop in future games personally
First: I'm a huge fan of RE, this franchise has been with me since i was a kid with the classics 1,2,3. Second: My favourite RE game is the original RE 3. Third: I will always remember the night i played the demo of RE 6 and the day of it's launch, one of the most fun and hype moments any videogame has given to me. Fourth and last: As an RE fan i have this hot take on RE 6 and will have it till the end of my days. I LOVE RE 6. It's the perfect culmination of the playstyle and mechanics that were introduced in 4 and 5. I remember the days of RE 4 and 5 and heard fans complaining about why they couldn't move while aiming or do kicks on free will without stunning enemies. RE 6 delivered those and many more details to the gameplay but sadly it's too much action that took the spotlight and many don't see those details still to these days. Great video!
I've been playing RE since day 1 and I quite liked 6 at the time. Way more than 5. I liked playing the online campaign with my friend, so I have nothing but fond memories. It didn't matter to me it wasn't survival horror, just that it was improved from RE5. And wow there are some awesome set pieces in this one.
Much like you, RE5 was my intro to resident evil. I was excited for RE6 months in advance and remember downloading pirated copies of the 2 demos just to play it a bit early. Both RE5 and RE6 will be remembered fondly by me.
Coop mode with a friend was mad fun. Leons game especially was great.
Lots of plot and character development, too. Resident Evil 6 added life to chris and ada especially.
Happy Halloween bro!
Leon - classic zombies
Chris - b.o.w. that can shoot back
Jake - escaping
Ada - filling in the gap.
I used to play this game quite often on my PlayStation 3, and it was one of the first co-op games that I got one of my closest online friends to play with me. We ended up completing the game and doing almost every bit of side content for a good 200 hours.
And I have to say that has got to have been one of the only times I played a game Co-op that I never regret. It's one of those gaming moments that sticks with you, and playing with him was a blast as we both went into the game thinking it was going to be trash but ended up liking it so much we bothered to pretty much 100% together.
Unfortunately as time went on we separated as internet drama ended up dividing us and the gaming group we played with.
But every time I see Resident Evil 6, I'm always reminded of the time that one of my first gaming Buddies completed a game with me.
That aside, while I think the Resident Evil 4 remake has become one of my favorites, I still think this is one of the more fun games to play With Friends.
Okay I wanted to add one last thing to this little mini opinion on Resident Evil 6, I just played it again and before I knew it I completed Leon's campaign in about 6 hours and 30 minutes straight. I never thought I would enjoy it as much as I used to, but hands down the gameplay holds up tremendously . The movement and overall Gunplay feel fantastic while the skill system add quite a bit of replay value. On top of that beating a campaign in like 6 hours with four of them in total means that you could sit down and probably play an entire campaign in one sitting. And normally I certain games deserve remakes but Resident Evil 6 doesn't feel like a game that needs a remake😊🎉
Niceee. I never played 6, but i have it. Im replaying all RE games and showing them to my fiance. About to finish 4, and 6 is coming up soon. Im excited to give it a shot.
Great video, you got yourself a new subscriber!
At the time, it wasn't that great. Back then, people were dying for the franchise to return to its classic roots. However, when compared to today's modern crap, it's actually very good. It was released in both a finished and playable state, didn't take long to install, and was affordable.
You’re saying RE6 is better than RE 2 & 4 remakes? Holy crap, you’re delusional
@@beansofhorrorshalashaska6987 - Did I say that?
@@beansofhorrorshalashaska6987
It is. These new remakes suck. Ruined story, characters, and gameplay. Also ruined the tone and atmosphere. The writing was atrocious and voice acting sucked. Soundtrack was lame or non-existent. UI is the same bland generic UI as every other RE engine game
always glad to hear someone talk nice about RE6. It's actually one of my favourite, and while not my first, it was the one that finally got me interested in the lore and characters and playing all the main titles (before the remakes, with exception of re1 remake).
spoilers: Also Love the boss fights with Simmons being basicly this meat-transformer who just cannot die, its epic and cool, and fake Ada turning into this giant goop mass and taking over the whole ship, which actually was one of the reasons I played this game in the first place. Like I saw this boss online and just had to experience it for myself. Same way I got into bloodborne XD
I've been saying it since release. Re6 is so much better then re5, while they are both action games instead of survival horror at least 6 has the controls to back up it's over the top action.
I honestly enjoyed my playtrough this year more then i would have expected before hand, and the game also has a kind of THICKness to it that also was very welcome
I never knew matty had this channel. haven't checked his channel in forever.
lots of love from PERU
I’m first just because re6 got my boy Leon 🤧
Lol the favourite is Ada for sure.. sounds like you're not using the crossbow in the stealth sections...the crossbow is so satisfying to use once you get the rhyme.
I really liked it. I could see why some would have a problem with it, but the general globe-trotting, action-heavy demeanor and tone of the game was the right path at the time. In the old games, the characters were unprepared to be trapped in a mansion infested with zombies. Now, years later with BOWs on the world stage and governments actively pursuing countermeasures, how could every scenario these characters find themselves in be the same as what they were.
I do, however, have three critiques for this video:
1) Ada's campaign actually was NOT available from the start. You had to complete the other three to get hers. Your general point still stands, though.
2) I HATE the RPG elements. We just have different tastes in games and that's fine. There's nothing wrong with you liking them. I just can't stand them. I think they are a mindless way to pad out the gameplay with useless crap. Even as someone who used to LOVE JRPGs, tediously wading through menu screens and comparing stats is just a waste of my precious time, as is looking around for "Skill Points".
3) "Chris encounters this Ada-like antagonistic figure. Maybe it's Ada, maybe it's not. I'm not saying anything because I don't want to spoil it."
Dude, that's a lot of words for saying that the woman Chris encounters is actually an Ada imposter. Just say he encounters Ada who acts as an antagonistic force and avoid spoilers that way, or just say that the person you encounter isn't Ada. It's like when someone tells you "Oh, you like this character? Well, I don't wanna spoil anything, but don't get too attached."
I have a love/hate relationship with this game, about 10/90.
This is the most hollywood a RE game has ever been. 4 started the shift to being more action focused and 6 was just the inevitable conclusion. Explosions everywhere, motorcycles jumping over helicopters, fist fighting a giant monster over lava, fighter jets, they ripped off that scene from Armageddon in the Chris campaign. It feels like an 80s action movie.
QTEs for days. QTEs everywhere. I hate them. I don't think they add anything to games other than pain in you hands. Rather than just watching a cut scene I am more focused on pressing buttons at the right time or I am going to have to do it all over again. RE6 even manages to screw that up too because often, you can do a QTE perfectly and the game will randomly fail you for no reason. But this is such a 2000s trend and this game was all over it.
Speaking of QTEs there is an option in the settings that allow you to "auto-complete" QTEs. Problem is, this does not apply to all QTE segments and you have no idea which ones. Because the game does not explain this to you.
Then there is how this game is obsessed with Ada. The events of this whole game boil down to one guy who was creepily fixated on Ada Wong. Simmons got Carla to undergo a procedure to look like Ada, she snapped and now wants to infect the world to get back at Simmons. Simmons is even growing clones of Ada.
So Jake doesn't like his dad, who is Wesker by the way, but he also is ready to kill Chris for killing his dad? Earlier Jake was going on about how evil Wesker was, shouldn't he be more understanding that Chris just did what needed to be done?
So Helena, for the early game continues to insist that they need to get to the cathedral. There is something Leon NEEDS to see or he just wouldn't believe her. Leon is the guy that survived Raccoon City, I think if there is anyone who is willing to believe it is him. It would have just been so much easier if she had just told Leon what was up from the beginning. But this point was just dragged out for the sake of suspense and drama. There was no reason to drag it out as long as they did.
The hud is absolutely unfinished. It looks terrible. You can't tell the different bars apart. Health, Stamina, they all look the same. The inventory is shit.
So for the sake of praising something about this game, the combat does feel good. Out of all the pre-new games the combat feels the best in this one. You can melee enemies to death and it is quite satisfying.
Matt Mercer as Leon rocked it. I really like his performance in the movies. Laura Bailey gives Helena automatic points for likability. And this all I can think of.
This channel is excellent matty and Resi 6 is awesome too! x
I actually enjoyed it with all the crazy cut scenes where different stories tie together.
Great review! In my opinion I do not think the developers would remake RE6 because it's extremely intricate having 4 separate campaigns. Also, graphics and gameplay mechanics are modern, still holding up today so I couldn't comprehend a reason to remake or revise this game besides just to making more money(which could potentially cause the game to suffer if it was retouched) I feel the only reason the old games (RE 2,3 &4) were revived was to update the gameplay for modern times due to all the new fans of the series after all live action films released. Realistically, it was the gift we all never knew we wanted. Most O.G. players of the series LOVE the old 3rd person perspectives and many were still playing the heck out of the old titles. RE2remake literally came out of nowhere, people weren't expecting or asking for one. When they finally dropped RE2remake the reviews were so great Capcom went ahead and re developed RE4 after all the requests and positive feedback, Capcom was on the fence concerning a remake at first. I believe many new players would not have been up to the aged graphics in going back to predated consoles with the fantastic theatrical third person perspective of RE2 and 3. I myself hope they don't remake 6 not because I didn't like it but simply because this game took a long time to beat and I don't want to do it again haha. If they drop it I will absolutely have to play the remake of RE6...I ALWAYS play on Hardcore mode too. Whatsup with the Code Veronica remake or Resident Evil Outbreak 1 and 2?! Now those I would LOVE to get my hands on again. When Outbreak was on PS2 , online was available but the world was still connecting online with dialup so I never got the chance to experience the game how it was supposed to be played. Those games are what I hope they focus on.
im honestly glad to see me and my friend are not the only ones who really enjoyed RE6. its fun as hell.
Had lots of fun with RE6, it's a good action game. The only things I really hated were the driving sections, but the story overall was pretty good!
And I remember not intentionally playing THE BEST order for the campaigns. I started with Jake/Sherry then Chris, and by the time I got to Leon's campaign I was SO MAD and shocked with Ada just to find out it was actually Carla.
To this day I still play the Mercenaries mode, I guess I'll try the campaign again after watching your video.
I like it. I like the three intersecting campaigns and I love the co-op. Had a great time playing this back in the day.
I got Resident Evil 6 on day of release and I started on Chris and Piers campaign. For the first few hours I couldn't get into the controls and it was very action heavy and Call of Duty-esque. I was really disappointed. I pushed on for a few hours and it clicked! Really clicked. I loved it. The controls made sense. It is a brilliant ACTION game. I got 1000g (no multiplayer) and I enjoyed it so much. Leon and Helana's campaign was my favourite closely followed by Jake and Sherry's. Chris and Piers was definitely in last. The first few hours of Chris and Piers was poor and very brown. I love Resident Evil 6. Think I am the only one. The melee moves were really well implemented and the jumping back and rolling.
As a fan of the action/horror RE games, I see the animated movies of RE that come out; the spiritual successor to that version of the franchise. The newer games are more horror based and the CG films continue the action timeline.
One of my favorite Resident Evil games. Even more fun with two players.
Melee and dual welding were crazy
I played this game on the 'no hope' difficulty and i loved it, i was limping the whole time without ammo and struggling to get by
It was the first main game to have you shooting while you could move (to my knowledge). I like that Leon and Chris were given a shine. And their respective campaigns were bringing back the nostalgia. Like the campaign for Chris Redfield. It reminds me of re5 and Leon's has a more re2/4 vibe. While I think this game had a bit of an identity problem, I overall liked it.
We need a video on all the old style fixed camera angle RE games from you
Me and a friend played it recently and had a good time. Feels like playing a Michael Bay movie, with all the amusing absurdity that entails
I'm fairly certain in my 3 or 4 playthroughs of RE6 in my lifetime, I never knew you could take cover in this game 😅
This is my second favorite Resident Evil game. It was really fun and addicting to play. My favorite campaign was Leon's. I like the way he feels when I play him. I feel like a badass whenever I play him. My favorite memory of this game is playing the entire game with my sister.
Me and my partner have been playing through re6 and currently on Ada’s campaign. I love it but the main issue for us is that the camera position can be annoying after cutscenes on pc. They died a lot from this issue especially in Chris’s campaign when your running across boats under a time limit. But I feel like must re games were more designed for controller as it’s way easier
re6 was an OK coop game. I liked how there were multiple campaigns to play through.
Why is every youtuber afraid to say they like 5 or 6 without some underhanded remark. Its so annoying, almost like theyre afraid the masses wont like their video or unsubscribe.
People forget 5 & 6 were Capcoms best selling games ever before the remake of 2.
People bought them, played them and liked them. Great video by the way
Has the best "Arcade Mode" in the series-- meaning Mercs/Raid/etc. The bonus missions in 2make are great, RE5 mercs and 4make mercs are also highlights, but nothing tops RE6 mercs...
...it's the game's mechanics used to their full potential, with less worry on trying to add survival horror elements and more emphasis on being a badass. When you find yourself quick shooting a dog, diving onto your back to avoid a zombie cops gunfire, rolling to avoid crawlers as you shoot them, standing up, catching a Bloodshot midair and slamming your foot into it's heart, then decapitating a zombie with his own axe, stunning his buddy for a follow-up suplex, all in the span of about 15 sec, you truly feel like you're playing as Leon/etc.
Resident evil 6 was my first resident evil game that I have played and no matter how much people thrash on it, say how much they hate it I could never bring myself to hate it. I know it isn’t a resident evil game (far from it) but it was the game that introduced me and made me play other games and I cannot help but to appreciate it. It introduced me to an amazing series with amazing characters that I’ve grown to love and appreciate over the years while playing other games and honestly nothing can beat my love for re6. Yes it’s all over the place with action and what not and yes it is nowhere near what a resident evil game should be but it grew on me so much. I replayed it so many times both solo or with my friends, played the mercenaries mode way too many times and played some online too. The side characters were so good and my favorite campaign was Sherry and Jakes campaign. The chemistry between Jake and Sherry is something I’ve never seen that good, beating any ship or couple in resident evil all together for me. The way it all goes from just a job, to them caring about each other, Jake getting protective over Sherry meanwhile Sherry goes from needing Jake for creating a vaccine to blaming herself for trusting Simmons and bringing Jake along in this mess over the course of 5 chapters is to me mind blowing on how they managed to create such a good story and good chemistry between these two characters that we unfortunately never see again and honestly I would love another game with Sherry and Jake as the main characters, teaming up once again just to see them together after the ending but I don’t think it will happen. My second favorite campaign is Chris and Peirs’ campaign. Not because of the action but because of their dynamic and their story. Overall I think that re6 introduced amazing side characters and was a great action game but nowhere near what a resident evil game should be.
IT will be Nice to talk about the old games and the remake of that game in the same video. With some comparations and such
Interesting experience with this game. I started with Leon's campaign and it was driving me absolutely batty with the mechanics and the zombies you saw just sitting there in chairs or on the floor that the game wouldn't let you shoot until you stepped on them and let them grab you. Then I got to the mummified, sword carrying zombies and I was on the PHONE trash-talking the game to a friend as I hate played the rest of the way through his campaign.
Then the other 3 campaigns were fun 🤣
It’s all about the no gun playthrough with Sherry and Jake ❤
I still love playing mercenaries mode to this day
No, it's not. I had loads of fun with RE6. And I've been playing RE since the 90s.
I pre-ordered RE6 for the PS3 at Game Stop and I got the Umbrella umbrella as a pre-order bonus. Still have it too
Im about to make this video! what a shame you didn't look at the split screen local co-op. its the last of the RE series to included it !
People always talk about how much they dislike the action and the gameplay and they say "its a bad game". But they ignore the story and how amazingly they put together the campaigns and how the characters meet again and all the little moments (chris vs. Leon, leon protecting Ada, jake and sherrys romance and how they are hunt by the ghost of their fathers). I like RE6 because it has a good story. Unfortunately capcom listened to unhappy gamers and so we got Re7 that has nothing really to do with RE and were the characters are so unimportant, the main character does bot even have a face.
Honestly I love RE, I haven’t watched your review (which I’m doing tonight) but from the outside the biggest thing I could appreciate about this game was the co-op. Playing it almost as a traditional RE game though isn’t as great.
Ever since this games release I look at the logo for Resident Evil 6 and see a giraffe getting sucked off. I CANT STOP SEEING IT!
I rebought it on Switch almost solely for the Mercenaries mode and gyro controls.
It’s really cool to hear people who enjoy this game explain what’s great about it, and why it’s their favorite. I personally don’t like parts of it and it gets really boring for me, but I’d rather listen to someone explain in detail why something is good rather than listening to a community of people who’ve never played the game.
Anyone else notice on the front of the box, it said “3 pack of decals” included, but when he opened it there was only a 2 pack of them inside? I think they left out the what I would of assumed is the Jake/Sherry set that should have been with the other 4 characters.
Or I’m totally overthinking the whole thing.
Re 6 was my first brand new game on my brand new 360, I never owned many videos games in my life nor played the other games by then so this one blew my mind
This video made me wanna try this game again. Just finished spider man 2 need something to play
Gameplay wise, 6 was GREAT. It was an action shooter, though, true. It feels like the story was heading in that direction, but if its a culminating story for a few characters, then it did a great job.
I've been platting the resident evil games this year and this one was actually pretty fun
I love this game but as you said as an action game. It's a great over the top action horror game that I still love replaying.
I love this game so much because it was the first RE game that friends were willing to play because we could Coop, I know it’s not a “horror survivor” like the classics, the way the stories intertwined was a nice idea, and for the animated RE movies fans this game had amazing cinematics
Funny you mention RE5 love as it's the game that got me into the series, as up until that point I just didn't "get" survival horror. Specifically the survival part, I remember played RE2 on N64 & trying to kill every enemy, not a good idea.
As for RE6, I'm somewhat of an apologist for it but wouldn't call it a great game. It tries a few interesting concepts like the 4 player boss fights with online connectivity when it launched, but never quite lands many of them.
I will however defend the gunplay & movement controls while not in cover. I wish more games had the ability to dive on the ground, roll around, knife & shoot all at the same time. There's a lot of flexibility in your movement & combat options, which I feel like if the game was smaller or tried less & was built around those it could have been much better. You can see shades of this re-emerging with RE4 Remake's knife combat & I really hope Capcom carries this forward.
Complex, but logical control options that always feed back into each other are just so satisfying in games & it's often overlooked in RE6 due to everything else around the game.
Just copped a ps2 and playing the original tonight. LETS GOOOO
It may have sold the most copies at the time, but it got mixed to average reviews. RE7 and RE2 remake are top of the list in terms of sales with over 13 million each, which tells you that the general public prefers true survival horror. I hope Capcom doesn't waste their time remaking 5 and 6. If they're going to remake anymore, either RE1 (without fixed camera angles) or Code Veronica would be cool.
I got to use martial arts to punch a giant monster with a drill hand into lava while wearing a dog tag that said "Rock Hard Buns", so I had fun.
I wanna Code Veronica Remake! Also, I love 6! So much fun to play with a friend!
I like resident evil 6. I find it difficult to compare to other titles in the series. I didn’t think the length was a big issue, since it was 4 campaigns i could take a lil break between them.
I'm a huge resident evil fan, and I absolutely love this game! My brother and I play it all the time! Mercenaries is awesome!
I still see the giraffe.
Helena is my goddess. Change my mind.
This shit was fun playing online co-op with the homies
It's been a while since I've played 6, don't remember everything about it. Did like the length and storylines. I'll always have trouble with the rapid button pushing though like on the plane, some of Chris's scenario, etc.
Repayable and fun except for a few things here and there
My 7 year old loves RE6, he completed RE5 and then got hooked on 6
re6 was a cool action game some of our favorite characters going around shooting stuff doing over yhe top michael bay action set pieces. i had a blast
the people in these comments that like re6 are my people, i cant believe this game is so hated within the re fandom. its definitely a great action game, minus all the QTEs
