The newest from the folks that designed Half Life, DoD,... you are part of a 4 man team and need to play as a team i.e. no rambos since you will die quickly without the help of your team mates.

Thanks to Andy for telling me about this game which is very intense and fun for those who like to play as a team!

Google the title and you will find the info on the game and when you watch the intro trailer be advised this is what the game looks like!

I played the Demo on xbox360 and it was a blast. Quite intense. Looking forward to playing the full game at some point.

Crimson has it and I think armygroup does as well. I spoke to Soldier and looks like he is going to get it as well.

Crim and I played last night for a few hours! Loads of fun although we died just before the rescue team made it to the dock to pick us up!

Crim ran back to save the "girl" and paid the price! I tried to help as he was being mobbed by about 20-30 zombies and we both ended up dead! lol

We will try again tonight!

PS this is the kind of game that will not suit the rambo types to well as they die FAST! The AI lays some good traps!

I have this on the XBOX360 and love it. Im all about all things Zombie and had it the day it came out. Tons of fun. Still no decent internet connection here but im enjoying the single player camps and the split screen modes very much.

I just can't do shooters on the Xbox. My aim with the right joystick thing is terrible. I downloaded and played the Brothers in Arms demo the other day -- quite impressive. But I just can't control my aim -- sad.

My son has the game & showed it to me yesterday, he likes it... but it's not for me.

The intro video was very good & did well to establish the tone of the ENTIRE game (based on his comments). The shooting chaos that started from minute 1 continues non-stop & thats about it; it quickly became monotonus just watching it.
It was a good game feature to seeing him switch sides from Human to Zombie and did add a interesting twist to it.

He played it for several hours with his friends but nothing ever changed as far as I could see from the same dull dark graphics to the same exact game play (shoot & run).

As a shooter it works I guess, just not my type of shooter.

Well it might have been the series of maps he was playing which was at night... We have played one caled the "Harvast" which takes place in the daylight and have not made it past the corn fields.

Just picture a large corn field that you can not see anything in... once in you are attached from several directions at once and so far each time it has been different.

In short you have to play to get a feel for the game.

Now the question is what type of shooter do you like?

BTW they have not released the SDK so there will be lots of maps and mods for this.

I enjoy playing it with my nephews and my Brother Kelly. Its pretty cool. As long as you can keep your eyes on your part of the screen and concentrate on what your doing instead of what hes doing, you'll do fine, lol. Do it the other way and your just so much food for Zombies. :rofl:

FYI: The game has an option of splitting the screen on the horizontal or vertical axis, its up to you and how you like it. A very nice touch i might add.
