If you are gonna troll a game.. at least make it look like you know what you are talking about!.. button bashing gets your tired.. once you are tired you are as good as dead.. pfft.. button masher indeed..

Are you kidding me? A horde of 6 zombies coming at you and its no actual challege? I take it you beat it on Survivor mode?


Dead Island

Well I don't know about you but the last time I played Dead Island it bore no resemblance to ZombiU. Dead Island is a first person action adventure and ZombiU is an old-school first person survival horror. And the zombies are far more dangerous too - each hit knocks about a fifth off your health and one bite will kill you.

Rather than being a mindless button masher you need to use strategy to handle multiple enemies. If you blindly button mash you're as good as (un)dead.

Dead Island has a lot stronger and aggressive zombies, and much much deeper gameplay. You can create, combine and modify your weapons. You can smash, slash, pierce, throw, kick, and shoot. You can choose which body parts to attack...you can cripple, dismember or behead zombies. Lots of times, you'll even have to escape or use the environment for your survival.

ZombiU is basically you just button mashin that damn cricket bat, hoping the head will go boom quickly. Combat has no variety, it consists of only 2 or 3 button and you always do the same fucking thing to all the zombies. If your health wasn't so low in zU, Dead Island would be considered 10x times the survival game compared to zU. That's the only thing that gives zU a survival feel...low health

"Dead Island would be considered 10x times the survival game compared to zU " <--  again.. know the fcuk what you're talking about.. you dont even know what survival game means.. you die in dead Island.. you respawn in 5 seconds with the same character and with your stuff..  gawd some people.

Since when does respawn count as a survival element in a game? Or do you consider Dark/Demon Souls to be survival games ?



Not the worst review I've read haha
