Help out a fellow gamer with some advice. Both come out next Tuesday and I've only got the funds to get one of them currently. I really enjoy both series (have all the games from both) and can't decide which one to go with.

I know it's comparing apples to oranges, but which do you think will give me the bigger bang for my buck?

I really detest sports games now, but I would have to say NBA, mainly because of the online play. RE6 should have some pretty fun co-op, but if you're a purist RE fan, word is that this game continues to branch away from what made everyone love the series.

If you play online and like franchise mode I'd go bball.

If you like zombies, story and killing shite solo or coop I'd go RE.

If the RE story intertwines the characters well it could over shadow some glaring shortcomings like camera angle and shooter style gameplay.

My choice is between BL 2, resident evil, or waiting until AC 3 and not getting either for awhile.

NBA 2k13 is looking like the best sports game ever made to me so far, and RE6 looks like a piece of crap since they decided to move from classic RE style to run and gun. I've played both demos so that's my personal opinion, but it really depends on what you want to play more since they're two completely different types of games.

NBA 2k13 will have the best MyPlayer/MyCareer/Superstar mode that has ever been in any other sports game ever. If you like those kind of modes, 2k13 without a doubt.

I know. The only campaign I really didn't like at all was Chris'. Capcom swears that the demo is not representative of the whole game and that they just picked sections that best defined what each campaign was like. Still don't know why Ustanak wasn't in Jake's campaign though

I have hope man

Well Leon's campaign was the usual res type gameplay besides all the ammo. The camera angle is god awful though. Sometimes I can't even see the zombies around me. That kind of pissed me off.

Chris's campaign had the same shitty camera angle but it felt like mw

I read somewhere that the demo is on the easiest setting with tons of ammo.

Capcom got lots of complaints about it and promised to fix it. I agree. I won't play the demo because of the camera. Makes it a nightmare.

Sic did you play the demo? I usually don't say anything negative about a game but boy o boy was that camera angle REALLY bad.

Good news though a buddy of mine says its fixed. I'll try to post screenshots tonight. They will be from my phone(iphone5 )

lol. Not yet. Haven't fired up my 360 since the Idaho game. I was never a big RE fan, but loved 4 and played the crap out of 5, even though it wasn't a traditional RE game according to a lot of people. As a stand alone game, though, it was phenomenal.

I shouldn't say anything, though. I will gripe all day long about how the Splinter Cell series has steadily fallen down to the depths of meh.

5 was really fun to me, as was 4. I didn't play 1 2 or 3. Splinter cell chaos theory was the only splinter cell I could deal with

Just played the 2K13 demo and man it's nice. I hate how I couldn't go to 2K camera, but everything else was just nice and smooth. It will take a while for me to adjust to that stick
