So I guess Resident Evil 6 is Poopy

[lizard81288]

I guess the game is going to score bad, and has people complaining about it. Granted, it is the reviews and not gamer scores, but still. There are also alot of cutscenes as well. People that have it, say it is much worse than RE5

Yeah, unless you've played it, u can't have the same kind of opinion as someone who has.

[Zaladane]

Who cares? It's a new RE game, people will play it and those who bitch will continue to play it. And once they beat it and get unlocks and stuff they'll play it again and guess what same people who bitch will turn around and start saying "hey not bad" A year after people will start looking back and possibly replaying and say "hey pretty decent game" now where's 7?

Reviewers can kiss my ass, do these idiots even play these games for more than a few minutes? I wouldn't know because I never listen/watch them. And I use the term reviewers very loosely.

Complete opposite here. But actually agreeing with a reviewer is an entirely different matter. I've bought games after reading terrible reviews, and concluded that games with perfect scores are shit. It's simply a matter of understanding what a reviewer is telling you.

I think people took my "words of wisdom" to heart, but what I meant was that I don't waste time reading them in the first place.

Indeed.
I rarely read reviews anyway, but some are good for a laugh.

I'm inclined to agree with this, but I'm not above using them as a gauge for a game's approximate worth. Maybe not a review made by a single person, but usually user reviews can at least give you an idea of what's wrong with a game.

Don't let a review to influnce your opinion (negative or positive),the safest way to make sure if a game is worthy is to play.Reviews and opinions are biased based on the thoughts, way of thinking,preferences etc of each person.Also sometimes the matter is more complicated and cannot be answered by a single yes or not,or like-dislike,or a negative or positive vote and review.For a example,me as a hardcore and classic RE fan from the PS1 era,i don't like the series after game 4,because i don't like the fact that the game lost its adventure-mystery (ok it is not exactly a classic adventure,but there were a lot of riddles) style,the plot and the game lost its reality (i am not saying that the game was not fictionary and the story is based on ordinary and daily incidents,buy there was never a merchant in the series like in RE4,lurking in the game just to sell weapons etc)and the style of the game changed in a splatter-shooting-action gameplay 100% with checkpoints and similar shoot em up gameplay elements.So for me as a RE game series i give all RE's from 4 until now a big 0 as a grade,but as a cold hearted,unbiased gamer i give them a 8 because of the graphics,the action,the gameplay etc.

Play the demo, that is enough to make you vomit your insides out.

Reviews provide insight that a trailer and random news doesn't .

I have it and like it a RE 1,2, and 3 it is not but a great game. Upgrades are good multiple players and story's and a lot more. This guy's review and the ratings are way to low.

[Rok124]

i played the demo off of the ps3

controls are odd (not the standard controls you would think you would see in a game, but not a big deal though)
the characters take up 90% of the screen
extremely CoD like (except for Leon's scenario, which is actually more like the original Resident evil games)
shooting is very hard, but then again i dont play shooting games a lot anyways


and i simply just find this an unnecessary game in the series, i believe that the series should've ended in RE5 when the final antagonists and the creators of the virus were finally killed and destroyed.

for the zombies to still keep coming just doesnt make sense

i would still play it and RE5 tho

Definitely, you'd be lucky to glean any kind of actual game play information from most trailers now and days anyway. Though that being said, I'd still take most reviews with a grain of salt.
