So Capcom just confirmed Resident Evil 6, due to come out on November 20. Great! I’ve played each of the numbered Resident Evil games to completion and loved them all, even if I’ve found all the even-numbered games to be superior. I’m hoping that RE6 is also awesome.<\/p>\n

Not that it matters, but here’s a quick no-BS bullet point list of what I want when I play a Resident Evil game.<\/p>\n

BOWs. That means moaning, flesh-eating zombies rather than Ganados.<\/li>\n
I don’t want to be able to run while I shoot, but I want the down-and-button quick-turn. Resident Evil is not run-and-gun. It’s stop-and-pop.<\/li>\n
Jump scares. Lots of jump scares. Some people don’t like them. I am not some people.<\/li>\n
No mandatory suicidal AI companion. Shiva drove me insane.<\/li>\n
Set up the unspoken rules, and then break them. Kind of like Resident Evil 2 did\u00a0when the T-103 zombie came through the wall and then pursued you from room to room<\/a>.<\/li>\n
More zombies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
And that’s it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
