Wow this game really didn't get any love here did it? :lol

Well as it's only a few days away I figured it was time to revive the thread. I'm looking forward to it, so is anyone else with me? :D Here's a few videos.....

Yeah it's reminiscent of Fallout 3 but it doesn't seem like it takes itself as serious as that game, which I think is a nice change. I just really like the cel shaded look and it looks like it's gonna be really intense. The 4 player co-op is a big plus too.
 
I haven't been impressed with anything I've seen from this game. I love gearbox, and have been looking into this game a lot....but it looks boring to me. I'll see how it is received when it comes out.
 
It may be derivative of Diablo and Mad Max but I am still enjoying it a lot.

I love blowing the heads off of maniacally laughing, shotgun-toting "little people" as they charge right at you.

I know, I might be a little sick in the head. :duh

If anyone has it for the 360 and wants to try co-op, let me know. I'd like to try to get some of those achievements.
 
I played it for a little while. It's alright, nothing special in my opinion. Not a must buy.

I just picked it up yesterday and gave it a quick whirl last night. So far, it looks like it's going to be fun. Shoot me a friend request - my gamertag is in my sig.
 
I managed to squeeze in a couple more hours of playtime last night. I can definitely see this game becoming incredibly addicting, and I'm actually surprised there aren't more Freaks picking up this game.

It's an FPS with great graphics, massive freeroam environments to piddle around in, lots of hidden loot and weapons to discover, in addition to having light RPG elements for your character. The four-player online co-op is just the gravy on this already-satisfying meal.

If you're a shooter fan then you owe it to yourself to give this game a try.
 
Been thinking about picking this one up.....I like what I have seen/heard so far.


**actually after watching more videos of this, I'm definitely picking it up soon.

got this for $9 on black friday from amazon. Had a video game credit and a coupon. This is an awesome game. I am lvl 25 now and having a ball with the game. I have my friend playing split screen coop w me and it makes the game even better. The split screen coop is the best thing this game did. It is like an old school game, where you can play without the need for Xbox Live. If more games were made with the split screen coop mode i think sales would go up. I can hang out w my friend, smoke, play some games and talk without the headset.

I like this game more than MW2. It has more replay value and hunting for perks, weapons, and money is the bomb. I give this a solid 8/10.

I think a sequel will be the best game i have ever played if they add to this original.

Don't forget the DLC that came out recently - the Zombie Island of Dr. Ned. This game is definitely worth the purchase price as there are dozens upon dozens of hours of gameplay.
