Since I have no sound on this 'puter I didn't watch the video you posted, but this game looks great. Of course first I'd have to get Red Dead Redemption (but it sounds like a great game in and of itself).
I love the part in some of the ads where the old guy goes "I'm just going to walk down this dark alley..."

I have it (obviously, otherwise the "I'm so getting it ASAP" part seems a little less plausble)... and I confirm, it's a GREAT game. Pretty cool story (okay, not earth-shaking, but for a good ole western, it's well done), great gameplay, lots of things you can do. I strongly recommend at the very least trying it, if not buying it outright, I'm sure you won't regret it.  |

Bought it. Undead Nightmare is AWESOME. I just... love it. The zombies are pretty well-made (they "walk" slowly, but they can run at a moderately fast pace when they spot a juicy, happy meal on legs. They trip all over the place (mostly when shot, but hey). Ammo isn't as much of a problem as I feared it'd be (very close from the beginning, you get a torch, which is a decent melee weapon that never breaks and can kill zombies in three hits (or 1 if you're lucky), allowing you to keep from wasting good bullets when you take them out one by one.
The mere idea of capturing and taming a zombie horse is very amusing (and quite a sight while riding it), and you must shoot zombies in the head to kill'em... again.
Of course it's very creepy, and a little scary when you're not used to it (I dunno, even if I know I can shoot the heck out of them with my double-barrelled shotgun, I keep thinking "oooh crap, here they come, here they come... dammit, don't touch me, you dirty stinking undead!" [well, not exactly, but you get the idea], as if they'd pass on their "disease" to Marston if they'd hit him enough. Of course, they wouldn't, but my subconscious mind doesn't care to remember that, lol).
The zombies' moaning sound effects are downright unnatural, and play on the nerves of the player as they should whenever they are heard. Perhaps a little too much, in fact. It's like they all have a permanent echo effect which makes it even more creepy than it should IMO. That can be either good or bad, depending on what you're looking for in this game.
Anyway, it's fun. A lot of, actually. Very satisfied here. ^_^

I became a zombie and didn't notice? Huh.
Unless it's available for PC or PS2, no way I can play anytime soon. I just don't have the funds to upgrade my system.

I became a zombie and didn't notice? Huh. The fun part is, it took me like 10 seconds to understand what you were talking about here. Guess I AM tired. lol. I'm afraid it ain't, for PS2 anyway. Can't say for PC, though. If it is... get the core game and the add-on, and you get yourself two very great games. ^_^ |
