Short game.
But still epic and awesome 'til the very last minute.
... Still, only 45 minutes will be awesome per chapter.
And there's only four chapters.

The Village People is missing their biker, Bill = woot, Zoey is in the game for whatever reason and Louis + Smoker = RACISM!?!?! You pick dude/spunky girl, grab gun, kill zombies for 45 minutes. Repeat 4x.

The fact that you can play through the entire game in just 3 hours gets completely forgotten when playing Simon and Garfunkel on max. volume.

Volkswagen/10


There, take a note on that one reviewers.

Good short review.  Still wondering when (or if) I'll pick this one up.

$60 for three levels of solid gameplay is not worth it in my book.

I own a Volkswagen, I love my Volkswagen, so I must get this game. That's an omen. Nice review.

PC version will probably end up with thousands of custom maps over its lifetime. Expert is disturbingly difficult. Versus, it's hard not to have fun even if you're sucking.

That's what I originally thought, but trust me, there's a shitload of replay value in this title. Each time you play it, it's always slightly different - the way the game works, it's not like your regular TPS

3 levels? What crack are you smoking?

First of all, there are four *campaigns*. 4, not 3, and each is 5 levels long. Each is not huge in length, but damnit people, each has huge replay value, and more is sure to come in the future, both in modding terms and valve official support.

And VS mode is hours of fun.

I logged 9.5 hours playing THE DEMO. The full game I've only got 11 hours so far, but that's just because I had exams recently and study ate lots of my free time. I'm getting a marathon of this shit going tomorrow. Can't wait.

I just wish it was cheaper.  The demo is so much fun.  I know everyone is like "Get the PC Version", but then, their are no achievements.

There are achievements, just not your precious xbox ones.

Been playing this hardcore the last day or so. The lack of levels isn't a problem and is something I'm used to since I play a lot of TF2. Anyone who has played that game intensely for the last year know two things.

  1. Few perfectly balanced levels are better then many unbalanced levels and provide insane replay and creativity for both teams.
  2. Valve will update this game consistently over the next couple months (at least on the PC) and keep the community going.
All I'd really like to see added to this game is a couple extra super-rare weapons like a rocket-launcher or flame-thrower.

If Valve lets players swing a metal bat around, I am in.

I wouldn't be surprised it people add other Source games' weapons to it. I'm eyeing the Half-life 2 rocket launcher myself...

...and the Portal Gun.

Yeah... Great short review with good points throughout... But it reads like a damn Haiku... Not an Epic fail... More like an Epic Miss.
