Quote:Zombies really are the flavour of the month right now, so it came as no surprise when Techland announced they too were working on a game that, you guessed it, focussed around zombies. What did come as a surprise, was quite how they were going about it. Never before had we seen anything nearly as thought provoking as "that" trailer, nor had we seen a game that would focus so heavily on the visceral melee combat aspect of a zombie apocalypse. But now that it's all out in the open, it's clear that this open-world zombie apocalypse simulator is surprising for the wrong reasons too.

Sounds like it will be a good time playing co-op. Excellent review, Darryl Kaye. You wrote so well that I registered an account to this site.

There's some really mixed reviews on this game... I can't wait to see what the overall response from gamers/consumers will be.

---

Well, it is atop the UK charts this week. Good response from the consumer so far... But it is just too soon to know anything, perhaps.

Good review. Adressess the problems where they are.
But... whoa, mister! 12-14 hours for the main campaign? I think on a "speed run" this is possible, yes. But that amount on average? No way.
