Leon and Chris Redfield will back again. The game outbreak goes global on November 20 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The PC infection will follow soon after.

*UPDATES*

"The developers confirmed the third character, a mercenary whose identity is currently unknown. Capcom wouldn't confirm the character's name, but our sources indicate that the character is related to a major Resident Evil character in some manner.

Typical to Resident Evil fashion, all three major characters will also be accompanied by a companion. Capcom has confirmed that Leon's companion is government agent Helena Harper.

Much speculation has surrounded the identity of the unnamed mercenary character's companion, a blonde woman. Many people have theorized that the character is Ashley Graham due to the story's involvement of the president, who may or may not be President Graham. However, our sources have confirmed to us that the character is actually Sherry Birkin, daughter of Resident Evil 2's villain, William Birkin."

Hopefully it won't suck like RE5.

This series needs to get back to it's horror roots asap.

I still haven't beaten RE4... Does anyone have any general tips for me? I keep running out of ammo all the time! Why did they make the game super hard? It seems impossible for me.

But this looks really good! I'm looking forward to this now! Anyone agree that Leon is super cool?

Not shaved Leon make him 3x cooler

looking forward to RE6, it seems it has few scenarios. Leon in US, Chris in China with his team.

You meant RE4?

I am talking about RE4! What are you talking about?

But yes, I don't know why I keep getting stuck at a certain part of the game. It's like every time I get to that part. I'm either low on ammo, or have no items to help me. Do you have any tips for me? Because I really want to beat the game.

Lol you typed RS4, leaving me confuzzzled

Well, if you keep getting low on ammo, maybe you should conserve it by using knife tactic and close quarter combat.

Shoot the head /arm/ kness, then get close then kick em then knife (if only 1 enemy)
Upgrade Shotgun, use machinegun only as backup weapon alternative to handgun, it didn't do much damage anyway. save Magnum bullets for bosses. Usually you can shoot barrel or other thing that will explode thus save your ammo.

I didn't type RS4, or if I did I have now fixed it. You are obviously confused!

All that aside. I would use the knife/close quarters combat strategy if I wasn't such a wuss can kept running away from the zombies when they come at me! And if I remember correctly (sorry, I haven't picked up the game in ages) knives/stakes and other close combat items are one use only.

I liked the first half of the trailer, then it went to Chris Redfield and the more action movie scenes. Still, I'm glad to see them revisiting the survival horror elements of the older games it seems. Going back to facing zombies.

Posted by: Ayako Watanabe Jan 19 2012, 09:52 PM

So beside Chris and Leon returning once more, Ashley Graham is back as well, and even ( maybe ) Ada Wong. So does that mean we'll be expecting Leon doing a lot of running and Chris punching a lot of boulders? But there is something that's bothering me.....

...wheres Claire Redfield? Where's my waifu Sheva Alomar? D:

Shoot them in the head and knee often. When they get down kneeling, come in close to use Leons special move to knock them out good. Depends on the difficulty also. Sometimes ignoring them is best, but that depends on the situation.

it's good thing Chris taking less steroid on RE6

Posted by: Kamui Jan 21 2012, 05:18 PM

I am surprised the turn around on the game has been so quick, well RE5 was released in late 08. It is still quite fast, I have not looked into the details yet, is there any chance we are going back to the original zombie plot ?

Looks like there trying to appeal to the fanbases of both the new and old games with this split scenario between Leon and Chris. With Leon, you get a Raccoon City environment where your surrounded by zombies and have to focus more on survival while the Chris scenario is more akin to RE5. That's my impression so far atleast.

I'm only interested in this game if I can run and shoot and the same time. I'm not asking for CoD level Michael Bay shit, here. I just want the option to aim and walk at the same time.

*bump

So I'm hoping this won't be a flop.

Is anyone getting that one with the throwbacks? Is't called Archives. it's got Code: Veronica X in HD!, RE5 Gold Edition, and 4 in HD and the DVD for Degeneration. I was a bit of a sucker for Veronica X.. but that was years ago.

Anyone getting it or just the regular one?

Got the collector's edition with the bag and bonus Merc maps, and definitely not regretting it so far, it owns pretty hard.

Posted by: r3d$unz Oct 1 2012, 08:05 AM

So reviews for this game are all over the scale. from 4/10 all the way to 8-9/10. This is why numbered reviews are just not the right way to go, I think a simple, opinion review will do, lets the reader read the review, look at the pros and cons then allow them to form an opinion on whether to pick the game up or not.

Posted by: Tessou Oct 1 2012, 08:22 AM

A lot of folks are talking about some game-breaking bugs that are marring the overall experience. Apparently a common bug occurs during one of Leon's boss battles that can essentially make it impossible to continue.

The game is, on the whole, quite solid and great in co-op, according to many reviews.

Don't ever, EVER, believe anything IGN or Gamespot ever says. Those guys are fucking crooks.

Posted by: SgtXDNX Oct 1 2012, 08:41 AM

Weird, I haven't seen any bugs like that so far, and I've completed all three starter campaigns (and the respective boss fights a couple times). Speaking of, goddamn, I think Jake's final boss battle might just be my favourite anything ever.

And yeah, numbered reviews are bollocks. I've enjoyed the hell out of the game so far, and definitely don't regret picking it up, if only for how much I like the characterisation and decent control scheme.

Posted by: Cyrus430 Oct 2 2012, 01:08 PM

I got my copy but it's just sitting there lol

Any cool tips before I start?

Posted by: RalliKai Oct 2 2012, 01:59 PM

Alot of the comments I've read out there are similiar to what I thought from watching the trailers. Capcom basically trying too hard to appeal to two very different fanbases of the franchise.

Any cool tips before I start?

- Breakout is a nice skill to have, as are Firearm, Defense and Combat Gauge Increase.
- Melee, melee, melee. Also, try to set up throws with arm/head shots.
- Work out each enemy's weakpoint and just pound the everliving hell out of it.
- Switch your Aiming Reticle to Classic in the options menu.
- Charge up Jake's palm strike to get a short homing dash out of it.

That's about all I can think of so far.

Posted by: Cyrus430 Oct 3 2012, 07:23 AM

Oh GOD! I learned the hard way about melee.. I started realizing this when I saw how much of a crapfest it can be to shoot zombie after zombie.. those little bastards can take a beating. So I started just kicking and screaming basically lol

Also.. anyone found a way to transfer items between characters on Xbox Live? Me and the bro in law couldn't figure it out..

Posted by: SgtXDNX Oct 3 2012, 08:21 AM

You think the zombies are bad bullet sponges, just wait until you start fighting J'avo. Never thought I'd be so glad that Leon has that running head slam attack.

Posted by: Cyrus430 Oct 3 2012, 08:25 AM

Grrr..

Anyone notice if the game is SUPER stingy with ammo? Also how the HELL do I use the first aid spray? I swear the tutorial only teaches you so much. I tried to use it when my health was down and no I can only discard.. WTF!? lol

Use Up/down directional to select it then R1 to use

Posted by: RedsunsF1 Nov 13 2012, 02:34 PM

Just saw this thread. I think Resident Evil 4 & 6 are by far the best ones out now. Resident Evil 4 still is my all time favorite. Got to give Konami props for doing such a good job on RE6.

Posted by: JKaiba Nov 13 2012, 04:58 PM

So my friend and I were a little disappointed in Resident Evil 6. Partly because we thought the plot looked like something out of a bad fanfic... So I narrated the plot of Resident Evil 6 as if it were a bad fanfic. (yes I really do sound like this)

Thank you for posting this J. Now I don't have to play the game, you saved me a bunch of time! Hell, I don't have to play any sort of Resident Evil game now, this video basically nailed all the games. Once again, excellent voice acting sir!
