It was blocked in work so finally got around to watching it last night. Gotta say I was pretty disappointed. It looks real pretty but the gameplay looks really slow and VERY similar to Dead Rising. I'm also skeptical as to how much the multiplayer aspect has been thought through as it looks very single player orientated.

I've gotta agree with some of the comments I read that it looks like a cross between Farcry and Dead Rising. Neither of which stunned me.

Hoping I'm wrong as I could do with some new zombie action (what the hell happened to the Cold Storage DLC for L4D2?!?).

I think it looks pretty cool, but I have a thing for zombie games and movies. I don't own either of the Dead Rising games, but I do have DLC from the second game that I enjoyed a lot.

I also kinda enjoy "adventure games" like this. Yea, it's a shooter, but you're also going on an adventure of sorts doing things and finding things. I'm totally going to get this.

The game does cool, but I'm not a big fan of using baseball bats and clubs for weapons (gets very monotonous after a bit). Hopefully that was just the first part of the game and they move on to better things.
