sorry pj but

D-Rank:
[Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City]
Resident Evil Survivor
Resident Evil 6

This is a major reason I posted those lifetime sales stats. I very much do not like RE6 as a Resident Evil game. It's the Michael Bay of RE games. And despite selling over NINE MILLION copies, it (coupled with Umbrella Corps) was definitely a tailspin for the series in the middle of last decade. I don't like Jake at ALL as a character, and that's without the weird handwave of Wesker banging out some eastern European chick. Conversely, I do like adult Sherry and her complete nonchalance about still rocking the G-Virus. Leon's section was okay, but I hate everything "The Family" and why is there a T-Rex what the christ. The crossplay thing, as mentioned already, was cool for the hot second it was actually a thing, but otherwise no. There was so much in this game, and very little was worth it the first time around, and none for subsequent playthroughs. Also Ada might be the worst waste of potential in the entire series. I'm sure I'll go into way more depth about a lot of these things later, but for a game with SO MUCH in it, there is literally nothing to it.

Survivor, another light gun nonsense game, PSX style this time. But it gets the nod over the others for actually tying into things. I love the background on the mass production of the T-103s and for this reason alone keeps it out of the gutter tier, since I will actually replay it from time to time. Hypnos is pretty awesome too. Plus it's the only side piece game that gets a shoutout in a numbered game (the opening scrawl of Zero).

ORC is just a hot mess of wasted potential. I played so much of it the first week and then just fell off hard. The concept is actually really strong about what else is going on in Raccoon City during the outbreak, and at least on the Umbrella Security Services side I enjoyed the characters a lot (Four Eyes the best). Echo Six are all expendable. Any time the game actually tried to reconcile itself with the rest of the series though (like with the canon survivors or Nemesis) things fall apart very quickly. Beautiful setpieces though, and of all things they handle G-Birkin quite nicely. I really wanted this game to be better. It's not so much bad as just very underwhelming.
