7/10
the fear is still gone but its interesting.

Warning: Spoilers
A new RE game is out and things have continued to change but how much is too much? as for Resident evil 6 this game changes to something vary different. if you where hoping for a return to horror keep looking because this game is about as action packed as it gets.

taking place in 4 campaigns that come together at some points this game crafts a interesting story that keeps you hooked until the end but if you are not a fan or have not kept up this game doesn't do much to keep you in the loop.

this is a game but it has so many game PLAY issues that you wish they had just made a movie. the shooting is dull and doesn't not feel like it belongs in an action game it feels slow and aiming feels awkward more like it was a survival horror game but it's not this is action only and its disappointing that it try's to cater to the horror with one campaign that is not scary. most games have QTEs Were you must mash a button repetitively to not die and most games tend keep it to a manageable extent but RE6 wants you to destroy your controller at almost any enemy that you encounter triggers one of these events and you must be flawless or you will end up dead or badly wounded.

co-op returns this time around and it makes the game a little more manageable. your supply's have been simplified so it is easy to manage between friends i recommend playing with a friend but most Gameplay issues are still prevalent. me mercenaries also returns this time and it is just like the last installment kill zombies and try to keep the clock ticking.

graphically this game is great but nothing really sucks you in enough that when a scare happens its not all that scary monsters look great and so do character models but i wish Leon would shave. a lot of things in the game make callbacks to past RE games but to enjoy them you have to keep up with the series.

its hard to recommend this game there is so much content but some of it is not good. if you are a hardcore resident evil fan then you will love the story even more then i did but the game play is just not all that fun. i recommend seeing the story online and skip the dull game play or find a buddy to play with

graphics 8/10. story 8.5/10. game play 3/10. replay 6/10. if you are a non fan 5/10 not a lot fun to play and story will be hard to understand. for fans 8/10 game play issues aside fans will have a lot to like in the story department and the call backs to past games will make you giggle... like a school girl. overall 7.5
