Ah, it’s a tough question. I mean like I said to Brook on the Podcast. It’s obvious from playing just the first hour of the game that it wasn’t destined to Review well. Graphics look ok but there are a lot of technical bugs. Quests not completing when they are supposed to and the graphical stuff like the frame rate and texture pop in. However, it still remains a very fun game. I mean if you love killing thousands of zombies in consistently new and creative ways, whilst running around a huge open world and levelling up and unlocking a skill tree then I say go ahead and get it or at least rent it. The tech bugs are not an issue for me coz thats like saying Oblivion and Fallout 3 are not fun games coz they are buggy.
Honestly though, I wasn’t persuaded by the reviews from the major gaming sites. It was watching the gameplay and listening to actual regular peoples impressions of the game on Youtube etc that actually swayed me, because everyone seemed to be enjoying it.
Also the drop in/drop out co-op is an absolute bonus. So basically any time in the game you may get a notification saying another player is in your area, would you like to join their game (as far as I know you have to be near enough the same level and have the same amount of the campaign complete) and with a quick push of the D-Pad you join their game and go on the quests together. Very seamless. So running around this game with a few friends is going to be great.
