I may eventually rent it, but it isn’t really on my must-play list. I couldn’t really get into RE5. RE4, IMO, was still the best, but the older ones, with fixed camera angles and everything, seemed to have a lot more ‘scary’ scenes that caused you to jump. That’s a problem I have with the third person shoulder camera for RE games. It gets less frightening because you are more aware of your surroundings.

I’ve played every previous RE, so I certainly can’t leave this one out, but I’ll probably wait until there’s a price drop first. I just can’t justify ~$60 for these titles anymore.

I think this game merits a 70 percent. It was altogether playable (barring the horrible camera) and I never ran into anything game breaking.

The biggest issue was that it was painfully tedious, all secondary characters like Helena or Sherry were relegated to stand by and watch a lot of the end battles, and with the interactivity between campaigns, you replayed a TON of boss fights.

RE6 was competent, but nothing to get excited about for me.

I give the game a solid 70 as well. I played only Jake and Leon so far. ADA and Chris are left.

Jake, when it came to story, only mission 1 2 and 5 were fun, the other two were just stupid.

Leon, the entire story was great, but the final boss fight was prolonged a bit too much.

I want to ask something of all of you for a second. We all agree that RE6 is a terrible resident evil, it sacrificed everything evil and residentish, except the brand, in order to cater to the modern bro-shoot-everything-in-the-room philosophy.

But how about just as a game? Would you consider it good? or how about fun?

Co-op is inherently unscary. I also said that RE5 was a bad resident evil too, but a very fun game (which I still stand by). In short I want to say 70% is a good number as a rating. a good game, but I do feel a bit ripped off considering how its a major publisher.
