Rented it today. Got to the Subway train on Leon's campaign. Impressed with the game so far. Gameplay is good and visuals are well above bad in my opinion!
I cant understand those negative reviews.
May the NFOrce be with you always.

I will wait for giantbomb review but what Brad said on I love mondays didn't sound to optimistic.
Timeshift or The Darkness also had medicore scores and those are among my favs. |
Yeah no wonder why its such an inflation in gaming scores when people think 82 out of a fucking hundred is a mediocre score. ffs...

Reviews are just opinions, and while I can understand that people often put a lot of stock in them and what they have to say, ultimately playing the game yourself is the only way to decide. Sure, RE6 may have gotten mostly mediocre scores across the board, but that doesn't mean it's a bad game. Based on what I've read here (and yes, this may very well be a minority in the gaming world), this game sounds like a great (or maybe good) experience and well worth playing through.
Moreover, if someone has already played most RE games to date, I'm sure their investment is different in this game anyway. Regardless of the fact that something like CoD gets close to 9's across the board, it really is just a slightly-above average shooter (comparing to most 'mainstream' shooters) that rarely innovates but provides a fun experience for its length. Maybe I'd look at this differently if I bought more games, but I play games to have fun, and if that's provided, it's all good.

I don't want to bring RE4 topic back so let me ask here.
I was thinking RE4hd came out only for games on demand/xbla right ? But I've found disc based releases that claim it works. Just burn the disc and install the game(it says in nfo) The install part is a must..
So are games on demand or some xbla possible to play this way on non jtag/rgh machine?
if so there are some really cool games on demand games I would pick
since the pc version is kinda bad, 360 hd rerelease seems to be a good way to replay it

I know this is a console forum but imho the best way to play RE4 is to play the Wii version on a PC using the Dolphin emulator. You can play the game at 2560x1600 + High res textures + mouse support (since the mouse emulates a Wiimote very well). The 360 HD re-release pales in comparison.

I just had a thought. Is this not the very first game where you dont have to stand still to shoot?!

the qtes in this game are actually among the better ones since they show you the timer so it feels less annoying.

Maybe, but capcom just went overboard with them. Sometimes there are just QTE after QTE after QTE, nearly like playing that old game Dragons Lair.

Here's the Kotaku review.
http://kotaku.com/5948171/resident-evil-6-the-kotaku-review
Tips before you play ...
| Quote: | 1. Play The Campaigns In Any Order, But You Might Want to Start With Jake's
All three main campaigns in Resident Evil 6 hop through the game's one lengthy timeline. The game's mai menu has a "special features" option that leads to a "cutscenes" screen. In this section, you'll see icons for all of the game's cutscenes (once you've encountered them in the game), laid out across the game's proper timeline. You'll be able to see which scenes occur when, relative to everything else. The timeline will show you that Jake and Chris' campaigns involve the earliest events in nthe game, but the game won't play those out in that order. Here's the best advice we can give for going through the campaigns in their narrative order:
Start with Jake's first two chapters.
Then play two chapters of Leon.
Play Chris' first two, next, which will bounce you around a bit but...
You'll then be at the moments when the three main campaigns begin to intersect a lot.
You can't juggle two mid-chapter save files at once, so you'll need to complete each chapter before hopping to something else.
2. Take Note of When The Game Is Actually Saving
The classic typerwriter-based save point system is long gone. Resident Evil 6 now auto-saves, but it doesn't do it as often as you might think. The game will frequently flash a notice that it has checkpointed your progress, but it is not saving your progress when it does that. If you quit the game after most of its checkpoints, you will lose a lot of your progress. Make sure you actually see a notification that the game is saving. It'll be accompanied by a little typewriter.
3. Play as Piers
Each of the game's three main campaigns stars a pair of heroes. You can play solo or co-op, and, either way, will have a chance to choose who you want to control. RE stand-by Leon Kennedy? Or newcomer Helena Harper? Well, there's not much of a difference between them. Jake or Sherry? He can reach some places she can't thanks to an acrobatic leaping move and he has a special hand-to-hand fighting style. He's cool. But she's got an electro-shock baton, so it's a wash. Chris and Piers? There's a difference. Chris is our machine gun guy. Piers is more of a sniper. But more importantly, if you play as Piers, you just mind find the narrative of the Chris and Piers campaign more satisfying. Without going into spoilers, please trust us. We're professionals.
4. Stay Online And Let Players Join
If you're playing solo and you leave your online options open, someone may join your campaign. They might take on the role of your partner, but they also might just be dropping in as characters from one of the other campaigns, in one of the numerous moments when the game's campaigns intersect. More importantly, by keeping your game open, you'll be able to be invaded by players who are using Agent Hunt mode to take control of enemy monsters and make your Resident Evil 6 adventures more difficult but also more interesting.
5, Learn to use your melee attacks
Ammo isn't that scarce in Resident Evil 6, but you'd still be wise to learn the art of running up to an enemy zombie or J'Avo and smacking him with a strong melee attack. Your moves will be strongest if your stamina bar is high. This is the one limitation on the series' otherwise total abandonment of run-and-gun restrictions (meaning, yes, you can shoot while running). Your stamina bar will drop if you spam your melee attack button. So move in close, then strike. Alternately, pull both your aiming trigger and your shooting trigger at once when an enemy is nearby. This will drain a lot of your stamina gauge, but it will also stun the enemy, leaving them open to a fatal melee move.
6. Do a barrel roll!
Well, learn how to roll out of the way of enemy attacks. Mess around with it a few times. And then learn how to dive away from an attack. It may take you a few tries to realize that you must let go of your left trigger in order to get up after diving away. This will make more sense as you play; so just find some space and train yourself to roll, dive and get up.
7. Use both sticks during QTEs
Resident Evil 6 is chock-full of Quick Time Events—cinematic sequences that you can fail if you don't follow the button input prompts that pop up on screen. Some of these prompts appear to be asking you to twirl one analog stick. Don't fall for that! Twirl both. It usually helps.
8. Learn the dial-a-combo to restore your health
You will often be low on health in this game. Don't panic. Learn to use your inventory to your advantage. You can access the inventory on the fly, but the game will not pause when you open it up. If you have two health items—two green herbs or a green and a red—you can and should combine them. You need to do this fast, while you're probably near death. And then you need to consume them. How in the world do you do that? Well, on the PS3, the quick combo is this: Triangle, X, X, X, X, Circle, R3, R3, R3. This opens the inventory, mashes two health items together, puts them in your health-pack slot, closes the inventory and then lets you consume the tablets. Press R3 six times if you've combined a green and a red.
9. Sure, play Mercenaries, but also try Agent Hunt
The Agent Hunt mode that unlocks after you finish any one of the game's main three campaigns is the coolest thing in all of RE6. |
May the NFOrce be with you always.

Is the Leon campaign exactly the same if you play as Helena instead of Leon?

I made a huge post about how to mod the PC version, including links to everything, but this crappy search system prohibits finding the damned thing
