First impression was "Wow, this is a really pretty game" and once I figured out how to shut off the random online players dropping into my game (I don't always want to play with other people) I started enjoying the game more.  I had read a couple reviews of the game and when I had heard it had RPG elements, I knew I wanted to check it out.

I'm currently playing with the lady cop (the only person with firearm skills, despite no fucking guns yet!) and I really like the game. I have a few minor complaints about it (weapons breaking down quickly is one of them) but they are really minor at best.

It's similar to Fallout 3, just not as deep (Fallout 3 was my last Crack like game) and that's not a bad thing. Fallout 3 (like Skyrim) has soooooooo much going on that it's super easy to just get lost and wander the game for hours while not completing any missions at all. This one feels a bit more focused, and while  you can wander around, the game does give you a fairly clear direction of how to get to and from an objective once you've picked it.

Awesome game, extremely pretty graphics, and I think it's bloodier than the Left 4 Dead games (both of which I enjoyed) and this one has more of a story/mayhem aspect to it than L4D did (hacking up Zombies is fucking fun)

Still trying to figure out how to make weapons at the work bench...I may have figured it out.  Still confused on what you need to do to get to the next chapter.

Finally got those dam flares!

Of course, you may get overwhelmed when you have 25 quests to do and no car to drive (since you smashed every zombie you encountered with a crazy grin on your face). Or you smash all your weapons without thinking and you are left with barely nothing to face those fucking zombies that only takes a single swing a you to make you fly 20 feet backwards.

I find the choice of characters rather useless, or is it maybe because I didn't beat the game (I was level 22 or 23 when I stopped playing).

Anyway, I find that zombie games and movies and such are getting more and more popular, and we may be able to take good advantage of that.

Overall, I liked the game pretty much because I didn't have any expectations about it.

I did not realize this was like GTA with Zombies.  Get a mission, drive around / run around, do the mission then come back and get more missions.  I thought this was more like a story.  So my fault for not checking into it more.  Then, for some of these missions I find hordes of Zombies that are really difficult to beat them all, then I die and go back to one of the bases.

Plus, what is it with all these "friends" coming in the game?  All the sudden there are people running around me with screen names.  Are these supposed to be on-line people playing the game with me?

There are some cool things bout the game.  Great graphics.  Open game for plenty of exploring.  Lots of zombies.  Still...just the concept of runnin around doin stupid missions gets old for me.

One thing that is frustrating is literally trying to figure out how the controls work.  Directions for things like breaking open doors and fighting off zombies that have jumped on you do not seem to be listed anywhere.  Eventually I figured it out but hope there aren't similar problems.

Graphic are cool and I like that you are open to explore.  Pretty good so far.

I find your lack of zombie killing skills disturbing.

Was this done in a Darth Vader voice?

Read the review Meh, I especially liked the description of what happened when a zombie came through your windshield. It sounds great, the only trepidition I have left is that it doesn't sound like there's any firearms. I would really like to open fire on a zombie hoard, is it only melee weapons? I'll probably still get it, but having a gun is half the fun in a zombie game.

i managed to find a pistol and have a good story to go with it. I was stuck in an old warehouse with very little health, weapons failing and a HUGE zombie up ahead of me. So I pulled out the pistol I had been carrying around for the better part of an hour for 'emergencies only' and fired from about 10 feet at the zombie.

Hit it in the face but not the brain and all I did was make it REALLY mad. You know whats worse then no gun? A gun with 1 bullet and wasting it

I also had a molotov which was awesome until I dropped it by accident while running away from a horde of zombies lol

...but having a gun is half the fun in a zombie game.

Wuss.  Real men fight with toothpicks and rubber chickens! 

I do pretty well at "Angry Birds," though!
