Reminds me of Far Cry 2 mixed with a little bit of Fallout 3 and a dash of borderlands with zombies of course

I played it quite a bit. I ended up uninstalling it. It didn't have enough content for me and the difficulty level was a rollercoaster. Some parts were way too easy and then BAM!...effing hard. Then back to ridiculously easy. It just didn't seem tightened down or balanced enough for any more of my effort. Multiplayer coop was decent, but still lacking (ie - hard to stay on the same page with what mission you're trying to do, map waypoints aren't synchronized, etc...). But that's just my two cents.
I've been debating on getting it for a while... I always seem to find my cursor over the buy button on Steam. This game actually looks like it's one that would be better on a console.

I would have to agree. As I stated, I played it on PC. The controls were pretty bad. You could tell it was ported from console. Switching items in your inventory is a major chore without the controller (which you could just have on console). Plus you wouldn't have to worry about your hardware specs.

I have it on PC, it's not terrible, but you can tell it's consolized.
Hit me up on steam to play. Same username as here. :)

I didn't play on Steam :D, but I had the most up to date version of the game at the time ('bout...3 weeks ago or something like that). I avoided that nasty beta version that accidentally released over Steam.

I was one of those people really anticipating this game (for xbox). But when it got closer to the release date, I began to realize it was not the type of game I wanted it to be. It looks cool, and I think I might pick it up in 6 months when it is 20 bucks, but watching all the gameplay made it seem like a grind/chore to play after a bit. Ultimately I will save my judgment until I actually play it.

well i have it for the PS3 and it plays well, but your right Hypnoziz it goes up and down but if it started easy and then got hard it would be boring because thats whats excepted from most rpgs

I have it on steam,not too bad of a game but I will agree with the "roller-coaster" difficulty. I am like a lvl 30 or something like that and there are still times I get taken out by a runner...
I find the game the most fun with 2 or more people playing (friends).
All in all not bad,but can't say I have played in a long while...ever since I got back into arcade games and older consoles again :)
I have the PS 3 edition and i have enjoyed this game every much but i say about my friends that they do not like this game very much.
