What a load of rubbish, Jim had the right idea if you ignore the insane amount of nonsense and flat out incorrect statements about mechanics in his review(Much like his Vanquish piece). It's awful when people praise a poor(or even good) score while ignoring the actual content within. It's a flawed game, but for reasons Jim barely gets into. It's by far his worst review.
Disgusting abomination? Such absurd exaggerations all around. And comparing it to one of the most generic, braindead and uninspired shooters ever made(MoHW) is even more absurd. Resident Evil 6 is the game that shows what happens if you actually build complex mechanics into a modern game. People just can't bother and instead rush to call it shit.
The only bit of your post that I agree with even remotely agree with is the section regarding Leon as the first 30 minutes of his campaign is some of the worst game design out there. The forced slow walk is just a poor effort, but one quickly abandoned. Which ties into the major flaw of the game, inconsistency.
Edit: Don't mean to take away from the thread, is the screenshot section after all I suppose. Just think it's best to give a differing opinion in response to a question about the quality of a title.
Ya, most people don't dislike RE6 nearly as much as I do. I did let the hyperbole fly valiantly there, for sure. I think it's because I spent so much of my time vehemently defending it from all the naysayers in every thread leading up to release and I was genuinely anticipating the game thinking it would be great. After all, Resident Evil 5 was slightly disappointing, but I still thought it was a good game.
Kinda went the other way on that one. I fully stand behind my opinion of the game once I played it, though. I've put well over 30, probably close to 40 hours of gameplay into it, it's not like I just played a few chapters of Leon's campaign and wrote the entire thing off.
I'm coming from a place where I consider Resident Evil 4 the greatest game of the previous console generation, and a strong argument could be made for REmake, as well.

Understandable I suppose, and this isn't the place for another detailed RE6 argument. I just find it one of the best action games ever created,(have put in a similar amount of time) so your original post got me a bit flustered with a few of the more exaggerated bits. The combat engine on its own is the best of this generation outside of Vanquish, and I really think the campaign has some incredibly unique moments.
Certainly doesn't have the consistency of 4 though, a game just in terms of quality I would consider in a class of its own and probably my favorite game.. They're just very different in terms of goals and mechanics..
Nice screenshots <3

Man, puppeteer is getting me all nerdy with skyrim, but its awesome. (also i'm way late in the game, haha). In any case, I'm really enjoying how you can approach a shot as something to build, narratively even, rather than just groping around for nice moments and areas. Here are a few early stabs.
I had a tough time deciding about the framing of the second one. This is the alternate take: I AM THE ALTERNATE
Any ideas on how to get really maleable DOF? I want to get one of the better bokeh ones, but moreover I've been looking around for some way to have a focus adjustment slider or something. I'm just wondering if that exists.

I want it to be several months from now so people can post the "Hand" scene from Last Light in 4K. Looked absolutely amazing. Think it's far enough into the game to count as a spoiler though.

Love Riddck.
Those melee kills are fucken brutal.
But then so is the movie character.

Totally agree with you. This was a great stealth game. You've just inspired me to hunt around in storage for the CD's. Looks great downsampled.

It's one of my all time favorite games , i never get bored with it trying to escape the prison and i just love these brutal melee fights/kills! I have yet to play Dark Athena and i'm sure it will be great but it's nothing like the original, i hope they make a new game since there is a new movie coming later this year.
The game, even on 4k , needs some AA but the SSAO is disabled if you enable AA, i'm sure you can force it through inspector but it's already very heavy on 4k.

Sup. So if you enable AA, you can still force AO with the console. Here's what do:
xr_ssao 3
Some other useful commands:
cmd(noclip)
cl_toggleshowhud
open the radial menu for distant blur if you like that sorta thing

I had forgotten just how dark it can get at night in the STALKER series!
Still can't figure out how to get rid of the HUD. I've tried every console command I can find and nothing works.
EDIT: I sent the HUD away, with magic! (Photoshop) Original is linked here.

Thanks for the tip ,i will give it a try. I didn't know about the command "cl_toggleshowhud" ,i used the no clip which serves the same way but you are invicible.The blur is a nice trick , it can also be close when you zoom with the weapon

That C2 mod looks awesome!
So does riddick. I really want to pick that game up some day.
And personally I've been quite liking the Last Light screenshots. Don't know when I'll play that either though
And, yeah, I'm thinking the alternate for that shot as well.

Thanks, antitrop! It's pretty amazing to think that this game was made on the PS2 @ 60 fps.
