Well for one the controls make it instantly stand out. The main objective of the game is to basically survive for as long as possible. If you die you then take the role of another character, hunt down your former infected character, so you can kill him and obtain your survival pack. I wouldnt say it is being overhyped, i think people are excited by the potential of this game, it is a little different and if it is executed correctly then yes, we could have a game that may have a positive slant on the survival horror genre. Then againit could turn out to be a disappointment...lets hope not
