RE6

With only 30 days to go until Resident Evil 6
is released on October 2nd, we count down 30 reasons why Capcom’s
latest zombie infested survival horror game has us ready to destroy wave
after wave of the bloody undead in terrifying new ways. You rolling
with us? Pack a shotgun and never look back, this is the dirty 30 for Resident Evil 6. BRRRAAAAAIIINNNSS!!




30
The Zombies Are Smarter Than Ever Now





Like much, much, much smarter. They jump, spit acid and fight back with weapons. These things don't just grunt and groan. They eat brains and ace math tests. Run, man. RUN!




29
The Special Editions Rock





Why snag just the game when you can get copies of a bunch of classic Evils or even a hoodie? There are a ton of options, so stop being so boring.




28
That Logo Looks Like A Giraffe And A....


Love flourishes in the strangest of places. Sometimes a man loves a
woman. Sometimes a woman loves a giraffe. Sometimes two fish smoke
cigarettes after an argument. The Resident Evil 6 logo is like the world's most perversely inspiring rorschach test! Watch this Up At Noon bit for even more.




27
The Achievements!





There's an Achievement named "Duty Calls"
in case you were worried there wouldn't be enough action to go with
that survival horror. Plenty more Achievement spoilers at that link, if
you're into that kind of thing.




26
Ada Wong Is Back, Baby





And yes, we missed her too. Don't lie, so did you.




25
This Mysterious Man





What is he doing? Maybe he's READING THIS VERY ARTICLE!




24
You Probably Have Better Skin Than This Guy, So Cheer Up!









23
Leon, Chris & Eminem In The SAME GAME!









22
That Title Screen Guy Will Totally Yell "RESIDENT...EVIIIIL. SIX!" When You Press Start On The Title Screen





He did it for every other Resident Evil game so why fire him now?



21
Resident Evil.Net Keeps The Game Going FOREVA AND EVA






Regularly updated new content and events? This makes us very happy.




20
We Couldn't Wait So We Did Awesome Break Downs Of The Resident Evil Games Leading Up To RE6





Our homie Lucas M. Thomas has been doing amazingly detailed breakdowns of all the Resident evil classics. Join us in celebrating our old, withered nostalgia.




19
The Amazing IGN Wiki Means You'll Never Get Stuck





We'll keep updating it with backstory, cheats and full walkthroughs but we'd love if you helped us, too.




18
That Whole Zombie Infection Thing? Yeah, It's Global Now





(Although once again, Greenland is safe from the rest of the world's problems)




17
It Has A Naked Human-Spider Boss Woman Thingy That We Can't Even Show You





We would probably get arrested for throwing a picture in here but that won't stop us from talking about it.




16
DAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW!!







SO CUTE!!!




15
It's F***ing Legit!





Or so says @GenaMarini and she's probably right.




14
This Game Has Some Weird-Ass Enemies, Man!





Zombie mutant prize claw people? What the hell?!?! Well, it's not like being populated with freakish weirdos is new for the series or anything.




13
***ZOMBIE CAT BREAK!***







Hey look, it's Albert Whisker! We're so, so sorry.




12
Multiple Story Campaigns





Oh, you want branching stories and entire campaigns with different lead characters? Here are three to start you off:










And that's not even all of them...

Some Crazy, Talented People Are Working On This








Just watch our making-of video for proof!




10
The Bio Ball





Hypodermic fun for the whole family!




9
It Takes Place In The Same Universe As Sleeping Dogs If You're A Fan Fiction Writer Or Crazy Conspiracy Theorist





It doesn't really, but we can pretend.




8
It Comes With An Umbrella Corporation Umbrella If You Pre-Order It






Never heard of an Umbrella Umbrella? Let our resident (see what we did there?) video hostess Naomi Kyle show you one in action. IGN for Video




7
The Game's Producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi Is No Slouch





From classics like Dino Crisis, Resident Evil 2 to Killer7 and Devil May Cry, this guy is a legend.




6
It's Not Resident Evil 5





Nuff' said.




5
It's The Only Game This Year With Crossbows





OK, so that's bullsh*t. There are thousands of games this year with crossbows. But we like this crossbow the best.




4
It Reminds Us Of Resident Evil 2...










3
