Any urge of giving RE6 a try is stopped dead in its track at the thought of that terrible aiming reticle. You know, that shitty red dot swirling around inside the cross hairs. Unless they actually fixed that in the finished product.
I always found the rage behind the awful aiming reticle (And it is awful) to be hilarious.

Because, you can turn the reticle off and revert back to the laser aim a la RE4 and 5 in your settings.

And yes, you could do this in the demo.
Then why didn't Capcom just put that in as the default from the get-go?

This is how you make really, really, REALLY bad first impressions.

meh. I'm loving it. Moreso considering I have someone I can play co-op in. Some parts are a little bit awkward. The QTEs kinda bothered me in Leon's due to cheap deaths. But the waggle to get enemies off you? Nah. Not so much. Would people just prefer that stuff like that was removed? Aside from that I didnt find much else in terms of QTEs. At least nothing compared to the likes of Uncharted.

I'm enjoying the game myself. Its not classic Resi but considering it's on a wide-scale now it makes sense. I couldn't imagine having a whole World-Scale thing and then being stuck in a single mansion or something.

At least we got Revelations for that which is an amazing game too. (and everyone seems to forget it.)

Don't know if I should bother with this one. I actually liked 5 (as a co-op), so am I going to enjoy this?

Well I watched some Let's Plays and found the game somewhat entertaining to watch (in that flashy, dumb kinda way) if you skip all that trudging and shooting between cinematics and can suffer through occasional "fuck you" QTE game pulls out of it's ass.
I'd never buy it or play it though. Gameplay looks plain boring to me, and I'm the guy that liked Heavy Rain

i never just blindly buy or dont buy games based on just critic reviews. even if critics rate a game highly if i feel it doesnt appeal or wont appeal to me i dont buy it. examples being borderlands 2. good reviews but i just dont care about borderlands. same way with RE6. mixed reviews. but i know i will still like the game since i also liked RE5. so am gonna buy RE6 when it comes out for pc .
so i say that one should not completely depend upon critic reviews. they should asess for themselves if they would like the game or not critic reviews not withstanding. i still read reviews a lot on the web for games that am interested in buying but wont make my decision solely based on what the critics say.
so.in short am still gonna buy RE6 when it comes out though not at full price but at bargain bin price.

Well, having just finished the game (had to force myself just to see how it ends) I only have a few words I can say about RE6.

I thought it was shit.

Gameplay was average in parts and shit in others, story just keeps getting worse and QTE's .... look, just fuck off with QTE's.

It's in the top running for the worst game i've ever wasted money on, just behind E.T.
