Just picked up this game. Heck, just picked up an XBox360. Nice! After being a die hard PlayStation guy for a decade or so, my eyes have seen the light!
Now- this game is insane. As you all know, I love zombies. Can't get enough of em.
This game here, the premise is similar to "Dawn of the Dead", as it takes place in a mall, but you have 72 hours to investigate WHY this zombie plague is happening, and you also have to survive literally THOUSANDS of zombies at every turn.
You can venture into ANY store, and change your clothes, get food, use almost anything as a weapon (like throwing a 12-pack of pop cans at zombies...). My all time favourite weapon so far is the auger. Awesome.
I've only got like, 20 percent of the game done, but I can't get enough of it. I can't wait to see how it ends, and if there's gonna be a sequel.
My ONLY gripes with the game is the sub microscopic font designed for HD televisions (of which, I am bereft), and the friggin phone ringing every three seconds from the superintendant, alerting me to survivors.
I wish there was a "free play", where you could just go apeshit and destroy thousands of zombies, with little recourse.
What're your thoughts on this game? Any tips for a noob?
