You fuckers that play are gonna want this one.

Everything can be made a weapon to beat, shoot, or slice zombies.

It came out yesterday, so he was able to use a vehicle without a flux capacitor to drive to the nearest GameStop in the present.

Ah, I could have sworn on the video you posted it said it's release date was on Thursday. 

Any good?  Multiplayer worth it?

There is not competitive multiplayer.  It can be up to 4 player coop.  True drop in and drop out.  I have not played anything else since I started it last week.

Ok, played last night, and loved it.  We need to get a tigersx game night of this shit on Monday.

If you've played Borderlands, it's similar with the co-op drop/in out.  One player, the host, has missions assigned, and you basically drop in and go along the same missions that he's playing.  If he's too far ahead in the story from where you are, you don't get credit for completing the missions. 

All in all, good clean zombie killing fun.

Dude it is so fucking on tonight. What character you playing?

I played the chick that specializes in sharp weapons.

Not sure why, because the only weapons I could find were a rusty pipe, an oar, and a broom stick.

Can I use the defense that since I'm playing as the girl, I can't drive?

Got off not long after you quit.  Repaired weapons, and sold alcohol to the lady in the church.

Will I be able to go back to the first part of the island, and wrap up the side quests I didn't finish?  Before you got on, I was able to complete the mission that glitched on us the night before, where we needed the gas for Mike.

yea you can go back to it.  There comes a part where you cannot go back but it tells you that and you are nowhere close to that point yet.

For the achievements that require chopping of heads without being hit, is it easier to jump into someone's level 1 game with my level 10 character?  I assume the Zombies are set to the level of the person hosting?  Everything we've been fighting have been around my level, and you are about 20 levels ahead of me.

Yea you have actually had it pretty easy since my weapons are so much higher leveled.  That's on e reason why I have been trying to hang back a lot and let you do as much killing as you can unless it's a real big badass.  You need the experience points.

Sani is this game a must have? If so I'll pick it up tonight for the X-Box. BTW I love the X-Box, I will only buy X-box games from now on, with the exception of Ncaa Football.
