Rediscovering Resident Evil 6 on PS3: Online Gameplay in 2024

I must admit, the PS3 version still looks great. Much better than I remembered. Not a lot noticeable slow downs as well. Mostly 30 fps or at least it feels like it. The chapters however, feel shorter than I recall. Maybe because I rushed through it to get the trophies as I already completed it on 360 with my brother.

Surprisingly, there are people still playing online in 2024. I played a few games as creature (agent hunt) and even a game of coop mercenaries. I may even go back and play online story to help new players. Enjoyed the game.

I still need to go back and finish the remaining achievements in 360 version as well as complete the Xbox One and PS4 versions but I think I will do so in the future to enjoy the game again. I may even get the switch version as its the only version with different cloths in story mode. Dont know why Capcom did not add extra cloths to Xbox One and PS4 versions in the main mode.

All in all, totally worth picking up for dirt cheap for PS3 or 360 as well as 5. Keep in mind that the DLCs are paid in these versions but they are just online modes with unknown player base at this point.

On into RE4 Remake on PS4.

Resident Evil 6 first impression

Starting this post with a fact that I am the biggest Resident Evil fan there is. I own most of the Resident Evil games on multi platforms and still hunt the remaining ones on eBay and local sellers. With that out of the way, lets get into my first impression after playing Resident Evil 6 on Xbox 360.

re6Growing up with Resident Evil 1 and on made me love the franchise more and more until part 4 and 5. It is when the formula totally changed and the game became something else with the Resident Evil name. I started Resident Evil 6 playing as Chris; the old school Resident Evil 1 hero who started taking steroids from RE5 and onward.

The controls felt broken and un resident evil like although I got used to them in 30 minutes. The new inventory system is confusing and time consuming. Why couldn’t they keep the RE 5 inventory system is beyond me.

The first chapter was not that great to begin with as it seemed very repetitive and boring. As I finished it and moved on to the second, things started to change for the better. I am now more familiarized with the system and the enlivenment but the thing is, I cant but feel that I am playing a 3rd person Call of duty game. The squad command is not helping either. Resident Evil was always about 1 guy getting into trouble in a no man zone. Running around a group of solders is not Resident Evil.

Never the less, I am enjoy so far and my brother who has completed the game is saying that things will get better. Hoping for the best. Out.
