As promised, the Jake and Sherry bits ofResident Evil 6appear to balance between themore atmosphere focused aspectsof the classic games in the series and the more action-focused tastes of today’s gamers. Like inResident Evil 3, you’ll be on the run from a giant monster for at least part of your adventure, but like inResident Evil 5, you’ll also be engaging in shootouts with infected soldiers armed with machine guns.
Probably the most exciting info here is that Jake will apparently get similar melee combat techniques as his father Albert Wesker. I really like playing as Wesker and Krauser inResident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, and like the idea of being able to pull off similarly themed super powered moves inRE6.
Still, it can’t be denied thatRE6just doesn’t feel very must like theResident Eviltitles we’ve played before. Fans of the classic games will just have to hope thatResident Evil: Revelationsgets some kind of direct sequel that sticks more closely to the principals that have defined the series thus far, becauseResident Evil 6was not made with them in mind.
