ok guys so this is my first beer post in a forum. I'm not American but British.
somehow I feel that zombi u has been cheated on.
if you take all the points that gsmespot have said and then apply these to resident evil 1 on the PlayStation does this make that a bad game?? that game had repetitive ways to kill a zombie. the zombies could catch up with you. and it took three bites for you to die. yet this game wasn't so harshly reviewed in those days.

I feel that the reviewers of zombi u are hoping for a title like left for dead or call of duty zombies. if this game wasn't first person would it get a better review??

now guns. I live in London. there's no guns here no matter what gangster films portray. so the fact that this game doesn't have many or much ammo is realistic.
every video I watch about it makes me excited. makes me feel like the first time I picked up silent Hill. very eerie and dark. making you want to close doors behind you and choose your moments to rummage through your back pack for your items.
also if you watch the negative reviews you will also notice the video being used is repeated. which makes me think how much of the game did they really play or was this review written and recorded at demo stage.

overall im very excited for this title.
critics shouldnt make you judge wether or not you buy a game. you should just play it.
this isnt a game its a survival simulator which shows off (if only basic) the new consoles capavilities from a launch tittle.

roll on the 30th so i can smash zombies and carp my pants :)

i have this question for you tech heads. is it the GPU that produces the lighting in this game? It looks FAR beyond anything i have seen in any other console game this generation. Am i just a prisoner of the moment or what? it brings the atmosphere full circle and shows the potential of this console. remember this game was made on a Ps360 engine plus made on the older dev kits. looking forward to seeing what zombi U2 could look like.... along with what tweaks they make to the gameplay.

definitely. the lighting and atmosphere I have never seen anything like this. and tbh all 'survival horror' games of late are pretty much gun and runs with zombies instead of terrorists. nothing creepy or emotive as this. graphics are superb. the animation is incredible and the environments are rich and full of detail. I don't understand the reviews.

are the being paid off by the competition to give a poor review. have Nintendo upset them by not giving them an exclusive :/

the criticism is random. and they're confused. I'm definitely not confused and looking forward to the deluxe pack :)

No they just set their expectations too high. the average gaming journalist today is a graphics whore. If they game isnt pushing the boundaries of what we have ever seen then its not going to get a high score. the thing most people dont understand is there isnt one game in launch lineup thats pushing Wii U even a little bit. lets just give the console time and what to we see the next round of games from march 2013 and beyond.

yeah i guess alot of it has to do with graphics instead of the core game which is sad really but the gtaphics are good you know hmm and of course these are just launch titles. imagine next year what is going to come out! defibitely something to get excited for@

Read the blood comment by the developers.
I think the reviewers missed it.

Ive reserved my copy of Zombie U and it looks real fun im just hoping for the Zombie U 2 they greatly expand on weapons you can utilise and what you can pickup to make things because I was a tad concerned by the lack of them I mean in a modern day london theres ton of debris that can be picked up and utlised as a weapon yet the primary through the entire game by the looks of it is a cricket bat in the first thats probably my only gripe with the first one.

LOL these critics are a bunch of paid off weirdos who prefer halo/COD/WOW the same stuff recycled over and over again paid off by marketing PR demons etc etc

zombiU is the antichrist in the best way.

ZombiU2, the sequel where you try to survive a U2 concert where everyone's been turned into zombies. :P
