    A zombie game I actually enjoyed.


    I hate zombie games, I never found a point to them. However, upon being turned on to this one by my friend, I decided to try a title that would turn out to be my favorite video game. When I first saw adds for this on websites, my first expression was "RETARDED!" A week later, while I was playing Fallout 3, my friend decided to tell me and my cousin about it. I tried it a year later thinking I had nothing to loose, and I didn't. This game was great, easy to pick up and play, and FREAKING FUN! It took me a few days to get used to the survivors, but after that, the concept I hated (besides Francis) I actually grew to love, I actually ended up liking how each survivor had a certian relationship with the other. I also loved it's stress on teamwork, not compition. While it had few weapons, I grew to depend on the shotguns and not care about having the usual arsanal I have to choose from in other shooters, makes the decision quicker. In short, this is a zombie game anyone can love.
