This game is a total buy at the price! Has some bugs and quirkiness to the characters, and piles on the cheese in classic B-Movie fashion, but that was part of the charm. Its literally like Fallout with a little bit of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (control wise) with an awesome setting and tons of zombie/horror movie references! Great stuff for horror fans.
As long as you use the character abilities and weapon specialties from the jump the game is a blast. I had a friend who said it was too hard but he had the black dude, who specializes in melee and heavy weapons, using knives and such. Once he figured that out he hasnt put the game down. I played through it twice, and this was with a heavy backlog! I never do that. This was my sleeper hit of the year. Pretty awesome zombie apocalypse simulator IMO.
