I've been a fan of the Resident Evil franchise since Resident Evil 1 on the original Playstation. Now while this game's story works great with the overall mythology, overall ... I didn't feel like I was playing a game. I thought I was watching a movie. It felt about every couple minutes, I would have to watch some cut-scene or participate in a QTE, which detracts from the gameplay. I got so sick of this, that I would find myself turning off the game or trying to skip these cinematic elements.
Also, the camera work would be horrible at times. But I hear Capcom is releasing an update soon to address this problem. But again, the shoddy camera pulls the gamer out of the experience and makes them hate playing.
But if you're able to get over these big detractions, the game does have some positives. First, there are 4 main campaigns to choose from. Each campaign will take more than 5 hours on the initial play, making the overall game more than 20 hours. I like to get every achievement/trophy, and it took me about 40 hours to achieve this goal. So there's plenty of stuff to do here.
Seccond, I appreciated the unique idea of the interwoven story. It's hard to explain. But one campaign's story will be interwoven with another. So sometimes when playing online, you'll find that your game will intersect another players and they'll join you in your mission. It's a great idea, and the final outcome works well. I liked how each story is interconnected with the others.
But in the end, I felt this game was too much like the Resident Evil films, which I loathe. And these cinematic scenes came way too often, and pulled me out of my gaming experiences. As soon as I finished the game 100%, I used Best Buy's trade-in to get this out of my house as soon as possible. With so many newer, and better games coming this holiday season, Resident Evil 6 just doesn't compete against Assassin's Creed III, Halo 4, Black Ops II and many others.

It is just a bad shooter game now. No resemblance to the fun puzzle solving and eeriness of the older games.

Gameplay was okay, story was truly over the top awful. I don't know if it's so bad it's good or just plain bad, but I wouldn't play it again or recommend it.

So first off if you played the dragon's dogma resident evil demo then don't worry, they picked the worst parts of the game to show you.
The game is huge, there are 4 campaigns to play. Each is about 4-6 hours long. There is also a mode called agent hunt mode where you can invade other players games as a monster. Also the return of mercenaries!
Leon's campaign is a return to classic featuring zombies and spooky enviroments. Also probably the best of the 4. Chris's story is an action game, Jake's is more of a hybrid with more focus on hand to hand combat and a lot of running away.
The partners in this game are a lot smarter and won't steal your items. However they can be slow when you need them to get to a door.
I want to write more about this game and how awesome it is but it would be better for you to play it.

Another solid entry in the action horror franchise

Resident Evil 6 picks up where RE5 left off in terms of gameplay. This entry is just as good as the last one. The voice acting is sort of corny. However, the music and sound effects of the zombies is satisfying. The visuals are amazing as has always been the case with the RE series. I'd recommend this game if you're a fan of Resident Evil.

Don't let the others confuse you, this is a great Resident Evil game. The story is great and you get to see the views from all the different characters. The co-op is GREAT to play, and the new combat features make it a blast to play.

Should have been much better

RE6 is ultimately a very disappointing game that should have been much better. The gameplay is clunky and feels unsatisfying and the story-line is paper thin and completely uninteresting.
Don't expect much from the characters. Even though there are 7 playable characters, they act like cardboard cutouts, so don't expect much in the character development department.
Playing this game by yourself is a disaster, but you can get a little bit of enjoyment out of it if you have a co-op partner. This is really the only redeeming quality about the game.
If you're in it for the horror, look elsewhere, because this game is all about shallow action, but it's not very fun...
