Is it safe to download this on PSN? I have been reading other forums and people who downloaded the game on psn had issues like the game not starting and breaking after downloading the patch.
I got the digital version on the PSN and had no problems. Download was smooth, installing was smooth, patching was smooth and the game ran fine afterwards.
If you’re a fan of DS and have been following news on 3, you wouldn’t be worrying about that, check out the DS3 thread. I feel bad for Visceral Games. They said DS2 would have “peaks and valleys” AKA be scarier than 1 in some parts and enpower the player in others and everyone was worried about EA stripping it of the horror emphasis. Look how that turned out even though it had more of an action film feel, the bigger budget was used to make it a shit ton scarier in every way.
Similar to what’s happening now. Visceral shows an action oriented demo at E3 and everyone just sees that and assumes that is the entire game. never mind the fact that most gaming journalists who have actually played the current build say it’s still just as scary as ever.
The E3 stage demo we saw was chosen because according to Visceral it would be hard to convey horror on the big screen in front of everyone. I have complete faith in Visceral and after you see check out the thread I hope you do too.
As a DS fanatic I’ll speak for the majority of fans and say that while it has excellent shooting mechanics, the real star of the show is the light and sound design. Whoever worked on all the effects of what we see and hear really took it several steps beyond what anyone else has done before. I hope future developers in the survival horror genre are influenced by the atmosphere of DS.
Sorry to derail the thread momentarily, hope you guys who bought RE6 got your money’s worth.

The fact they were on gamecube is the main reason. The games that exist on PSN are PSOne classics aka the originals so it’s easy for them from a legal standpoint. RE0 and the remake never left Nintendo as far as I know. If Capcom choose to do it I’m sure they could work something out. There are tons of people who haven’t played RE0 or the remake so I’m sure Capcom could get free money that way. I know RE0 was released on the Wii so I’m not sure if exclusivity contracts still exist on those two titles. Since RE6 has gotten negative press I’m not sure how much it will sell over all, these two titles could easily make up for lost income.
Nothing compares to dead space 2’s lighting and sound design. But 6 is way too complex to speak about lighting, though the sound design is terrible in comparison, but the game is way too complex so I understand.
I’m guessing Resi will be the better multiplayer game, UNLESS! Ds3 revolutionises co op, most likely if they learned from 6s strengths and weaknesses that would happen but since they’re both being made at the same time I don’t know
As for now we’ll have to wait and see how 6 evolves, I doubt ds3 will have much room to evolve
they have infinite health and bullets…kind of a let down…they can die on traps though…kind of like super sonic…yes the AI in this game is super sonic…
Crossover points are to good…im enjoying it…haters can EAD…
I think the joke was Capcom is about money over product.
Feeding the haters.
I think it will evolve the co-op…The main evolution, when you play solo, you’re solo, no bullshit AI partners, when you play co-op thats when the 2nd player appears.
Good shit sir I just finished Jake on pro you gonna have fun. ( Be ready for the snow location lol no spoilers)
With peeps hate its just like side eye right now. True they could limit the QTE but it dont really take away from the fun.
I had so much fun with Jake Im prolly gonna go right back in with Sherry. Im still on the fence move to chris or go right back in lol. Imma miss shaolin style with Jake lol.
Game is hella fun, I enjoyed dying at certain parts, some of the enemies had me yelling oh shit son!! Nothing beats that awkward moment when you paying attention to the enemy but not your bullets you line up the infared for that much needed head shot and you get
Click click
No problem with Jake tho go right to the hands run at em flash kick to various Tony Jaa offense!! lol.
Game is solid and One part down and I like it way more than 5. Being stalked by the big dude gave me that nemesis feeling. Haven’t felt un safe from a big guy in a minute. Shooting him with rifle, explosive rounds, magnum rounds and he gave not a fuck running at me lol.
I died but a couple of time I locked on and ran at his ass like fuck it.
Game is pretty solid so far and getting a taste of how shit will overlap yep story on point so far for me.
Had to post again after watching a tad bit of that Giant Bomb trash.
It’s like really? really? dudes really need to be spoon fed like that? Im guessing they didnt play the demo or any of that etc. But you dont test controls and basic shit before really going in? 13hours before rolling LMFAO!!!
In the demo first thing i did with Leon before going up the stairs is roll, slide, practiced targetting, quick 180 turn, melee, I didnt need the game to tell me the first trailers show Leon sliding and rolling. I even practiced movement with the knife too. I was like oh shit you can sorta side step with the knife fukkin great. Im not use to all this organic movement in re this is more realistic. Lord knows zombies coming at me my movements will reflect how athletic I am.
Id be ashamed to say oh yea I play and love RE but I wait for RE to tell me what to do. Thats like coming on srk and not knowing what srk stands for. Hey guys new to the board but love street fighter how do i throw a hadoken?
Then to hear the other guy say he couldnt shoot in re 4 I just said the fuck? You mean you couldn’t shoot with a laser and a red dot. You my friend need glasses. Thats why the first basic enemies on screen you practice targetting. Oh shit red dot is on the zombies head lemme fire, ok gotta adjust boom head shot!! problem solved.
You mean to tell me Conan O Brien can roll, do melee attacks, and shoot zombies and ya’ll need ten hours? Id prolly give them a heart attack doing cqc with Jake. I can hear them now oh how did you link the flash kick to the sweep?
Sorry for the rant its just hearing this guy say oh yea the way Im playing now is a result of many hours…yea ok fool just off the demo i didnt have to use guns with Jake for awhile. That first part mishima style godfist uppercuts all day.
In their defense, Conan can do anything. That’s probably exactly how he deals with zombies IRL
Resident evils story is quite air tight, they had to add an extra character because it will conflict with the story BIG time. Also realistically why would you go into a zombie invasion by yourself? What kind of low life self hating idiot would do that
Also, for ds3 the way they’re most likely going to handle co op is Isaac is having hallucinations, if not then your gonna have one of those weird story lines that make no sense. Everybody in re6 is a main character, all characters have their own narrative perspective
Resident Evil’s story is not “air tight.” 5 pretty much finalized that they were going to take it in a different direction. They already started to retcon stuff before 5 though. Not sure exactly how much has changed, but still an interesting read. Becoming a god probably wasn’t what Spencer originally was planning on, though it seems like he did want to do something about forced evolution.
Also I was kind of on the fence about buying this game but hearing this comparison: RE4=SA, RE6=SA2 makes me go “fuuuuuuck no.” I played SA2 before SA1, and SA1 feels really shitty in comparison. RE4 felt way better than the demo did for me, and as such, the comparison should probably be reversed.
^Don’t worry. It’s not. The mechanics are all the same throughout all three campagins so that right there makes it different from SA. Plus in general the gameplay is the same too. I see 6 as different ways to make soup with each campaign while SA2 is soup (Sonic/Shadow), chili/stew (Knuckles/Rouge), and then casserole(Tails/Robotnik).
Just completed chapter 4 with Leon. The game is certainly coming in to it’s own. I think my favorite part about this game is the scope and the large variety of enemies. And I’ve only just played Leon. The inventory is certainly better handled than 5 thought I really miss pre-chapter load out changes. It’s strange because with Leon I have all these weapons but I can only realistically hold one slot of ammo for each along with a slot for health sprays, and two explosive types. I wish the game gave players more freedom in that regard like 4/5. I’d love to go back with Leon and have Piers Anti-Material Rifle for instance.
Still my issues with the field of view still stand. I’ve gotten used to it but 4/5 is just so much better. It’s a shame too when the camera actually does pull back at times too. Also the linear nature of the game is kind of a drag. I miss being at just one place or at least feeling like I’m at one place and exploring. Leon’s campaign doesn’t have too many if any real hub like areas in the game. Even when there are nothing has been as big as some of the ones in 4/5.
FurryCurry says that this game is better than a 5/10. It’s gonna be a few more days before I can give my true final thoughts about the whole thing though.
**SKILL STRATEGIES! **
I know it's still really early but let's talk Skill Strats! Right now I have extra item drop, lock on 2, and defense 2 going.
What are you guys rocking? Also do we have some faqs online yet for finding extra skill points in the environment and all the serpent medals? I've found more than I thought I would so far.Air tight as in “made to make sense within the actual game” so no Chris going off to rescue 1 person then from the other perspective Chris isn’t set out to save anyone. The story making sense for fans to connect real dots
And the comparison with sonic adventure was in a gameplay structure sense, which is what matters, not your below average adaptability. Personally I spent 15.99 for the HD version of Resi 4 instead of CV and I just couldn’t stick with it, game is too basic, really nice pacing but its so bare bones.
So enjoy your Resi 4 gameplay as much as you want, i come from an era of games with high scores, Resi 4 I could just watch on YouTube with a controller in my hand
Fatal Frame is where it’s at
I’ll be looking forward to final thoughts from a few people then. SA2 was one of the few sequels I feel near totally outclassed it’s predecessor, so I was kind of worried with the comparison. But it sounds like that still may be the case, so I’ll hold off on it for now.
Also @ other guy, RE4 had mercs too, and 6 didn’t exactly make me pause from the “deep new control schemes” so…um…kinda lost me. I can’t tell if you’re taking a shot at me or RE4 with gameplay comments, but SA1 didn’t exactly have better gameplay than SA2 did…so whatever. Wish I could watch RE6 on YouTube, but could barely see shit in the demo, so probably can’t see shit on YouTube recordings either.
I also have the digital download of RE6 w/ patch, and have yet to encounter any problems with my PS3.
Damn. I wish I wasn’t so fucking broke. I want my re fix ;-;
