Played the demo on the 360 today - Don't understand what the fuss is about in terms of gameplay, it worked fine.

Ock ock, Ack ack!

I played it on the Xbox, and it was very exhilerating!
I did it twice on normal, and we were able to get through it pretty easily and quickly, but when I tried it on advanced, it was pretty intense. We died twice on the second chapter, and then two guys quit, and we beat it with two AI characters. I was a little frustrated at my other teammates because they did not have mics and they were pretty stupid, but I still want this game so bad.

I played this tonight, and it's really fun.

Though I mostly played offline. I did a random match with ugly dudes and beat the demo. Pretty short.

Gotta play with you guys sometime.

I played a co-op match earlier as...Zoey I think her name is? Either way, I was playing on advanced, and it was pretty alright from what I played. What sucks is that about 10 minutes into it, my computer abruptly goes into sleep mode. I quit, I will probably play again later.

This game is pretty fun. They really pulled off the "zombie frenzy" feeling by combining both zombies that are pretty slow to react and groups that just pour out towards you. I'm not sure how fun this game would be over long periods of time, though. There would need to be a lot of variation in the levels to keep me interested, as well as some sort of trophy/ugrade system. I'd also like to see some more boss zombies!

For those who didnt know, the demo is free... I know I sure didn't. I was under the impression you had to preorder to play the demo.

Well, I'm pleasantly surprised. The game is pretty fun, it promotes team work and it's tense; but not so tense that I'm petrified. I guess having teammates helps to make the experience a bit less intimidating.

I've been playing the demo for the last hour or so, and it's pretty awesome. My mate just logged off, so I've been playing on single player. The game is certainly better with live teammates, so if anyone wants a game just message me on Steam.

My name on that is Dr_Ears, I'm part of the GW group so it shouldn't be hard to find me.

At the moment I can play advanced easily, though I'm finding it slightly difficult to finish the second stage on expert.

what's your steamID??

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

i'd really like to play expert mode with people who aren't retarded, but i'm on xbox. send me an invite if you're not a retard i guess!!!!!!!

gamertag is SG JIHAD JERRY but my mic is broken so you won't be able to hear me yelling internet memes and racial epithets

A conversation with my former boss from Sprint:
BOSS: Hey Jerry, I couldn't help but notice your desk is always so messy compared to everyone else.
ME: Well you know what they say. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.
BOSS: *confused look* Uhm... wouldn't that mean you're further from God than the rest of us?
ME: *mischievous grin* Exactly!!!

IF you think advanced is pretty intense, try expert. The tanks are ridiculous to take down if you haven't found a gun table by the time one shows up. Me and a couple friends beat it, but there's always one that just doesn't make it at the very end. Speaking of the end, there's a gas canister on the 2nd floor that everyone seems to find after they beat it. SO.....heads up. Use dat shit.

If anyone wants to play, add me up. My Steam account is "Grin_Tree" and I've seriously wasted about 20 hours of my life just playing through the first 2 levels constantly. It's definitely worth it if you're lucky enough to get some competent players together who don't rush ahead and inevitably get slaughtered. It's rare enough just to see someone have the courtesy to crouch down when they take point so that others can shoot from behind.

Anyone, my thoughts on the game:
