Forums - Gaming Discussion - I know I'll be lynched for this but... I'm having more fun playing Resident Evil 6 than The Last of Us.

Tagged games:

So, about three weeks ago, I started playing Resident Evil 6, which I only got due to the PSN RE sale (didn't buy on release due to all the bad press and word of mouth saying it wasn't worth $60). As a PS Plus member, it cost me $14, as well as around $7 for all the DLC. So I bought it and so far it's a great experience, played all of Leon's campaign and loved the coop, midway through Chris' campaign and it's also fun.

Enter The Last of Us, which I got on day one: epic graphics, hype, Metacritic 95 and all. Stopped Resident Evil 6 to play it. Turns out I played it for about 5 hours and I simply am not feeling like playing it again. I want to go back and play Resident Evil 6's Chris campaign because it was more fun where I stopped. I was expecting Uncharted-esque / Tomb Raider-esque scenes for The Last of Us but nothing so far has blown me away... only a few nasty bits of extreme violence but I'm not really into it. So yeah I'm kinda bored... 

I'm at the part Joel is with Ellie and they met Joel's friend, who will help them fix a car... 

What happened here? Is The Last of Us supposed to get better as I play? Why did Resident Evil 6 get so much shit on reviews? I honestly think it plays very well... especially in coop, I'm having a hell lot of fun with it...

The answer is simple: you like gaming, and you enjoy a game even if the rest don't. Resident Evil 6 is an atrocious terrorist attack over the Resident Evil franchise, but as a game itself? It's not bad. Not groundbreaking, but certainly not bad. And co-op always helps.



i say you should be permmabanned

the gameplay in resident evil 6 is pretty awesome unique TPS with cool unique mechanics imo, except the QTE's in the single player campaign.
 The story's really cheesy and I thought it awesome for being the way it was.

The multiplayer modes are awesome, and some of the most fun I've had.

 But, I still don't agree that its better than the last of us. Except the multiplayer/extra modes is.

To each there own I guess. but for me RE6 was 3 poor campaigns making a mediocre game at best it was like the game didnt know what it wanted to be so it tryed everything

yea, i really dont get why some people hated resident evil 5/6. there are both REALLY fun games. this might come as a surprise but RE5 is the game that got me into the series. of course ive seen the originals but im honestly not a huge fan of horror
