    Feels very clunky and so disappointing to play, it tries to be an action movie, but fails at it. It has some nice cut scenes, but the dialog is horrendous. The game never stops and slows down it just action after action with very clunky controls

    Capítulos extremamente longos e cansativos, uma história pouco envolvente e um grande desbalanço de dificuldade, hora fica fácil demais, hora fica difícil demais, personagens secundários sem nenhum carisma, e com motivações nulas. Esses e outros motivos fazem desse game um dos piores da franquia Resident evil.

    I'm a big resident evil fan and I can totally understand why people hate this game...But **** hell. What a beautiful **** crazed conclusion to this franchise. BEAUTIFUL!

    wow, so many people bashing at it.... It's not the worst game of the generation like some of you say,just wow x-x. What train hit you to say such things? Yeah sure,it's not the same Resident Evil that used to be, but it was still a fun game to play ( better than 5 in my opinion). You can play a campaign up to 7-8 hours ( 4 campaigns in total, not 3) on a harder difficulty. There are a lotwow, so many people bashing at it....

You can play a campaign up to 7-8 hours ( 4 campaigns in total, not 3) on a harder difficulty. There are a lot of quick time events,sure but I think that they're set for the right moments, an example is when you get grabbed by a zombie, of course you have to try something to escape right? And QTE are also used to enhance some cutscenes, making them more intense, not to mention that on Easy difficulty those cutscenes QTE will be done automatically..that's something no one talks about ¬_¬ . There's also a lot of variation in the game, from driving(flying,etc) to some light puzzles. The graphics aren't bad either and the storyline is pretty alright ( not the best but acceptable). Ammo is pretty scarce as well and the environment is well made. It's not horror but Leon's campaign has a little level of creepiness. The only bad thing about this game that I can say, is the online mode. While Agent Hunt is a great idea, it's entirely broken, you can barely move or do anything useful. It turns from fun to a chore. Mercenaries it's okay I guess, more intense ( a little bit),but not that much better than RE5. Annnd..the other modes you have to pay for...Ustanak was meh , great idea to look at but when you get to play it, it's kinda bad in my opinion. They should've put way more effort in the Online modes (that's cheap) . It's also a bit sad that the costumes are removed from the campaign. The game has ups and downs for sure, but it's not a bad game like some of you scream out there or bash at it. If some people would complain less and not right off the bat, playing the game more,the might see,that there was effort into it. To me overall Resident Evil 6 was a pretty good game, I hope the next one is even better. (Sorry for my english)… Expand

    No es un mal juego, es decir, es como Resident Evil 4 pero peor. No me gusta mucho la interfaz y a veces el juego es muy blando, con puzzles muy aburridos y poco contenido.

The criticism people have is valid, but this game has some much to offer for what it is currently rated as. I have played mechanically based games like the souls series and blood borne and the current day shadows die twice. Never have I seen a game with this much effort put in its combat mechanics. The story does have its flaws, but can be overlooked with its skilled based reward system. Not sure if people are unwilling to put to the effort to learn the hard and a bit complex mechanics then justify the harsh criticism with “bad story” “ Clunky mechanics“. This game has several difficulty modes Amateur, normal, veteran, professional, and no hope. My first play through was on veteran and man was it hard. After analyzing what made this game difficult was my lack of knowledge for its in depth mechanics. On a final note if you are an individual who wants a traditional Resident evil game or a easy game this is not for you.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Resident Evil has seen its ups and downs to many gamers in regard to how it use to be in the early 90's to mid 2000, with its fixed camera angels and limited ammo. I think as a fan since Resident Evil 2 the series needs to be bigger then it was, with each entry upping the anti for a much more cinematic effect and blockbuster action mixed, survival horror elements. It really lends itself well to the series. With its big spectacles and wonderful gameplay. Resident Evil 6 takes these notions to new heights with its interwoven story and its larger then life characters. Resident Evil 6 is to myself the biggest and best entry in the series and a very well made game in that respect. The story here is the biggest we've seen and the characters are so engaging in their quest to rid bioterrorism from the face of the earth. One of my favorite features in the game is the crossover feature, letting you play with up to four players/people at certain areas of the game its brilliant. The new characters feel very welcoming to the series, and the creature designs are very terrifying. There are four different play styles in the game to cater to each style of Resident Evil fan, retaining a certain uniqueness to each campaign. There is loads to do and many different modes for all varied players. The Mercenaries' mode is the best to date and there are tones of different new modes to choose from. Resident Evil 6 was an absolute amazing game to play with its few jumps scare and action set pieces it was a great experience for a long time Resident Evil fan. Sure their were a lot of action prompts, but those can be turned on or off at players discretion. I have and played all 21 entire in the series of games and this was my favorite by far. Resident evil 4 may be the best entry to most fans in the series,but where do you think the series went wrong from the originals, ill say it, "Resident Evil 4" The game is great but their in lies the rub. This is where the series changed into the new direction it is today. Everyone is different, one mans trash is another's treasure as the saying goes, everyone is different with different tastes. How do you bring back the fans of the first five main entries in the series like from 0 to 4 without alienating everyone who loves the later games of the series like 5 the revelations series, 6 and ORC but, there is no denying that this game was the biggest and most exciting Resident Evil to date. It's all right to jump back and forth like Capcom has been doing as of late, and trying new things, but that just means there is more Resident Evil to play, with different takes of enjoyment and that just means more Resident Evil for all to play!… Expand

    Let it be known, that I like all the RE games, from 0 to 6, though i will acknowledge 6 has some flaws. with that said, for $20, with all the DLC loaded and running at an improved 1080p with 60fps, the co-op and competitive multiplayer alone is worth it.

    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.

I got the game for $15 on sale at best buy so I gave it a shot and see what all the fuss was about.

    When I started the game up it seemed to have a fimular resident evil vibe. I played the 4 campaigns in order and really enjoyed them all. I like the new enemies(there were tons of different types) the boss battles, the big set pieces and more action orientated levels too. The graphics are great. The game is broken into 4 campaigns the first 3 can be played co-op or solo which is very cool. The first campaign is like the original resident evil but more action, the 2nd plays like a "gear of war clone" all action no puzzles, the 3rd is a mix of resident evil 3 with stealth mechanics added. And the last campaign is solo and wraps it all up in a nice bow. It was a blast to play through.

    There are a ton of extra modes where you can do a lot of fun co-op or solo missions. I also love you can go into another players game as a monster or just jump in to play a mission and assist the another player. If you want a cool game and have ever played resident evil and arn't hung up on it being more modern with a faster pace then you will like this game. Its a solid title, I recommend it to anybody who's wants a fun action co-op resident evil title with a lot of twisted and turns.    … Expand

The new characters they introduced were welcomed each one with its own backstory (you can read about them in the collectibles room if you've collected the right serpent emblem in that characters campaign).

Games are played because they’re fun, and I would have to say the gameplay in this is the best of any RE game-being able to move and aim/shoot, dive, roll, and melee at will. Yes it’s more of a gears of war style of gameplay, but I enjoyed playing through it. You will also get your moneys worth, as the game takes you through 16 hours worth across 4 campaigns. Most resident evil games you’re lucky to beat in more than 9 or 10 hours. I’m a huge fan of all resident evil games, people need to expand their horizons and not expect every frickin RE game to be like the original 3.

First of all, the three campaign system is a good balcony if it was really well used, the connection between the stories are done majestically, but unfortunately, the story is shallow. The old plot of bioterrorism we've seen in almost every episode of the series. The high point I believe you see in the campaign of Leon and Chris ... Jake I consider additional, a shallow story, without depth and totally forced. The graphics of the game in certain points are good. Beautiful and polished, however, under the light, end up showing bad textures. At least game performance is reasonable, with few frames falling. The gameplay strays a lot from the last two titles in the series, even keeping the camera behind its back, just like RE4 and 5, it tries to create a new style, With melee attacks and the possibility of counter. It would be a good idea if it was executed right. Frequent bugs take care of gameplay especially at important times. Just like the camera, it messes up at various times, causing even death.

    Music is a plus point of the game, as is dubbing. They are two things that meet and form a beautiful couple, taking the only suspense existing in this game that has a rampant action. A reasonable gameplay, a lousy camera, a shallow script, a pathetic villain, an unnecessary death, a good dubbing, and a good soundtrack.

    Resident Evil 6 in a way is a chaos, but marked the franchise. Capcom have learned with the mistakes and brought us now, Resident Evil 7: biohazard. A solid horror game. RE6 was not made the hype and brought more damage than profits to Capcom

    Resident Evil 6 is a mixed bag of a game. It features some great action set pieces, boss fights, and great graphics for a last gen title. But the game has many flaws that hold it back from being one of the best titles in the Resident Evil saga.

It features some great action set pieces, boss fights, and great graphics for a last gen title. But the game has many flaws that hold it back from being one of the best titles in the Resident Evil saga.
    The game features amazing graphics for a last gen title. The character and monster models are very detailed and so are the games many locals. The cutscenes are expertly done allowing the characters to show a variety of emotions as well as the action being excellently choreographed with the proper lighting. RE6 has great variety of monsters some of the best in the series. The sound is well done as well featuring the crunching splattering of the monsters and the heavy noises of artillery and explosions. The only gripe that can be found with the presentation is the occasional blurry textures and last gen motion capture on the characters.
    RE6 is broken into four campaigns each starring different characters. The game plays like an average third-person action shooter. RE6 is definitely a full action game and has next to no survival horror elements. The game is an overall good action game but fails to deliver some of the horror the Resident Evil series is known for. The first campaign starring Leon is easily the best of the campaigns by adding a little bit of horror and the best bosses the game has to offer. Chris also has a great campaign but is much more action heavy than Leon’s and features less impressive bosses. The last two Jake’s and Ada’s are easily the worst because they feature very little story and gameplay that has become repetitive by the end of the game. The game sprinkles in some quicktimes events which can be very annoying and frustrating and take away from the experience. If a player fails a quick time event it is an automatic game over and the player must start again. The game does feature some great set piece action moments that will put the player at the edge of their seat. RE6 can be extremely controlling at times such as forcing a player in a fixed position limiting their view and movement. There is also an inventory system that is extremely clunky that allows the player to craft healing items as well as switching weapons. Often the player will never need to heal due to how overpowered the player is at times. The game wills sometimes knockdown the player making it frustrating and hard to get up. This feature may have worked when the games were survival horror focused but RE6 is an action focused title which only frustrates instead of helps. RE6 has solid action gameplay but suffers from bad quicktime events and scripted moments that take away from the experience.
    RE6 tells a basic serviceable story that does not add anything new or exciting to the RE lore. The game stars four main characters and a co-op partner for each. Many returning characters make a return here such as Leon Kennedy, Chris Redfield, Ada Wong, and Sherry Birkin to name a few. The game takes place in many locations throughout the world where bio terror acts have been committed. The stories of Leon and Chris are well done but Ada’s and Jake’s are not with many plot issues never resolved. Overall RE6 tells a decent story that does well at showing different perspectives but suffers when it comes to telling a cohesive plot.
    RE6 is a basic action game that will keep players entertained but lacks the complexity to be something truly greatly. The game features bombastic action filled gameplay and a decent story as well as pretty good presentation for a last gen title. RE6 is worth buying on sale or as a rent but should not be bought at full price. RE6 is great disposable fun that can be enjoyed in a few nights.

    I do not understand why everyone criticizes this game so much? Leon's company - survival horror. Sherry and Chris - action, Ada - stealth. Yes, the plot is not drawn to a Hollywood movie. But all the same it is logical to end.

    A wide selection of weapons, which is more than in the Resident Evil 7.

    Resident Evil 6 is an extremely disappointing game in one of my favorite franchises. The story is so over-the-top and convoluted that it’s obvious that Capcom forgot what Resident Evil great. The story has four campaigns, Leon, Chris, Jake, and Ada.

Leon tries to be more of a horror/action game and is good for the first four chapters, but ends on one of the most ridiculous boss fights I have ever seen in the franchise. Chris’ campaign plays kind of like a military shooter and has some fun moments, but fails overall. Jake’s campaign had some fun moments but is straight up action and is just not very good. The best part of Jake’s campaign was the boss, Ustanak. He reminded me of Nemesis, but not as cool. Ada’s campaign is easily the most boring thing I’ve ever played in a Resident Evil game. It’s slower paced and there are puzzles, but Capcom still managed to screw that up. The only positives in Resident Evil 6 is the majority of Leon’s campaign, Mercenaries Mode, and the fact that it is a well made game in the sense of production values. Easily my least favorite entry in the main series and I hope Resident Evil will never hit rock bottom again. It's not the worst game ever, but it's definitely not good.… Expand

    The same old Resident Evil 6 that we know with 1080p60 update and now includes all of the previously released DLC. Despite the revamped graphics, the flaws are still there and still not good enough for me.

    Resident Evil 6 was a real let down back in 2012 and it still is in 2018. The updated frame rate and resolution doesn't make this game any better than it was before. Just like the PS3 version it is painfully average.

    A cooperative shooter with a terrible pace of storytelling and tedious gameplay. From resident evil there are only characters. Dead end for the series. It's funny how many people evaluate this part better than modern ones, while it is a primitive run from door to door and shooting everything that comes in the way in huge proportions.

    Resident Evil 6 is probably one of the worst RE games ever. This game can be summed up in extremely exaggerated action to the point of being ridiculous. The gameplay is bad, the characters feel awkward when you control them and the animations look silly but at least all of that makes it fun and maybe you can have a good time laughing at the game.

    Resident Evil 6 was probably designed by Michael Bay. This game has nothing to do with the known Resident Evil series and it doesn't feel like that it should be. All of the playable characters went to some wrestling school as well. Just feels weird and disappointing for a Resident Evil game.

The skill and weapon unlocks make replaying more fun and varied. A lot of content, fluid controls, fun progression, with high octane action set in the nightmare freaky universe of RE. That was my opinion on the 360 version.

    Nostalgia is a "B". So in today's day on the PS4 in 2019 the game has the constant annoying characteristic to switch between game play, cut scenes and in game rendered scenes. To then throw you back into to gameplay. That can be quite jarring and pulled myself and co-op partner out of the game when that happened. The camera angle changes even the positioning in the level can change and the enemy can cheap shot you.. Worst of all is those sprint chase/escape sequences. They tried to for a dramatic cinematic camera angle through most of those sequences, but it a technical frustrating nightmare mess to actually play those sections (even more so in co-op). The Chris and Piers level is probably the worst for that offence with four truly diabolically awful sprint chase/escape sequences.

    Summing up RE6 is a cheesy janky action game with hoaky dialogue, lots of QTE's and loads of scripted rendered/cut scene BS. Yeah mostly silly fun action nonsense with more than a few frustrating camera and control issues.    … Expand

    Undoubtedly a release that gave a lot to talk about, but thanks to its low digital price I bought it back.

    For a RE it's very bad, it threw everything away (the little redeemable of RE 5) and it's a mix of Uncharted (in a bad way) + Call of Duty.

    As an action game it can work ( and it's not a 10 either), but thanks to its duration and its extras it's not boring.

    Before I begin I would like to add that I am not a die hard Resident Evil fan and therefore I do not look at the series through rose tinted glasses, however if I was a Resident Evil fan I would have been devastated at this mockery of a video game.

    I played RE5 on the Xbox 360 and enjoyed it as an action third person co-op game. However that was back in 2009. I played RE6 in 2020 and yes    Before I begin I would like to add that I am not a die hard Resident Evil fan and therefore I do not look at the series through rose tinted glasses, however if I was a Resident Evil fan I would have been devastated at this mockery of a video game.

    I played RE5 on the Xbox 360 and enjoyed it as an action third person co-op game. However that was back in 2009. I played RE6 in 2020 and yes it is a 2012/2013 game but even still, this game is a joke and has not held up well at all. Being made in 2012/2013 is not really an excuse when you think we had games like The Last Of Us coming out the same year.

    Pros:
    - Chris Redfield
    - Leon Kennedy

    Cons - Literally everything else about the game but allow me to elaborate
    - The worst gun mechanics on the PS4
    - terrible and annoying enemy design, whoever thought enemies that explode into upside down floating bats is a complete moron and out of touch with video games
    - every other character is one dimensional and excessively patriotic and it feels like some Japanese person's stereotypical view of what westerners are like
    - The story is all over the place, there is 4 separate stories each of which tell you part of a story but even after finishing all of them twice you are still left scratching your head as to what is going on
    - Ustanek is laughable, is he supposed to be scary? he is just some unkillable giant blob with a vibrator for an arm. He isn't scary, he isn't well designed
    - the menu system is basic and poor
    - the whole game is clunky and jarring
    - The online DLC is the worst multiplayer I have ever played
    - the helicopter and driving scenes which are used to break up the terrible gunplay are even worse

    I could go on and on about this game but I think for me, this is the worst triple A game I have played on the PS4. If you think this game is above a 5/10, seriously, go play some proper games.    … Expand
