Got friends? Kill Zombies!

So much fun to play online with friends. The campaign is fun but versus mode is where it's at. Now that the survival pack is out all campaigns are available on versus which is great because it was getting kind of boring playing No Mercy and Blood Harvest. Survival mode is ok but it's pretty hard to last any longer than 5 minutes, to me it just doesn't last long enough and it's not worth playing for a few minutes and then just dying. If it was like Horde mode on Gears 2 or even Nazi Zombies on Call of Duty: WaW it would be a lot more fun to have it go by rounds instead of a time limit. Weapons are basic nothing special, auto shotgun is easily my favorite. The campaigns are only 5 chapters each but since the Zombies don't respawn in the same spot every time it keeps you on your toes. Versus mode is where you're going to spend most of your time playing. Death toll and No Mercy are my two favorites and I like being the smoker personally. Online play is where it's at though, split screen is nice to have and there is basically no single player, you need friends this is not a game you play by yourself. It does get repetitive at times, it's not a game you play for like a month straight just once in a while but when you and your friends do play it it is a blast. We need new campaigns, Valve. Please :) Get a bunch of your friends on live, buy Left 4 Dead, and have a brain salad.

mmmmm.....BRAAAAAAAAAINS!

It's no God of War but it's just as gory and still very fun.

From the opening cinematic you're going to know why there's a giant M slapped on the cover of this game. It earns it's M rating, and it's damn fun. It is almost a clone of God of War, you can upgrade your claws, health, special attacks, and pretty much anything else. The more experience you gain the higher your skill level (kind of like an rpg), the higher your skill level the more moves, special attacks, and more damage you can take. Your health works in a really neat way. You start to lose chunks of your skin the more damage you take, once it gets to a certain point you have to give yourself time to regenerate because your organs are exposed and enemies can kill you easier. My biggest problem with the game is that yes it does get repetitive. The game is still very fun but there are times when you'll get sick of doing the same basic combos over and over. The boss fights are lame and take forever. Like when you have to fight a giant molten rock (there's a lot of them in the game), all you do is roll around and lunge on top of it when it leaves itself open and start clawing away at it and you have to keep doing this until the damn thing dies. When you first start out you'll probably lunge at it at least 10 times but once you upgrade your claws it'll go by a lot faster but it's still tedious and annoying. The lunge is badass. You hold down LB to lock on to your enemies and once you're locked on you push RB to jump towards the enemy. This is something you can't upgrade, the whole game you can only lunge a certain distance. The story has a big problem with jumping around. I know that it's suppose to be an "origin" but the story isn't all that great and do you really care about the story when you're clawing someones arm off? Probably the coolest thing in the whole game is that when you beat the game you can play as wolverines original blue and yellow costume, and if you're an old school fan then this is incredibly cool. If you love God of War and it's gameplay (like I do) then I highly recomend you check this game out. It's not a perfect game but when was the last time you played a game based off a movie worth playing? Having it be similair to God of War is by no means a bad thing especially when it's fun.

One of the best beat 'em ups I've played in years.

I'm so glad this game lived up to the hype. An M rated game that Wii owners deserve. The graphics are stylish and made me feel like I was playing Sin City, very well done. I love how it plays like a graphic novel/comic book even the gameplay with its bold bright words (slaughter, massacre, thud, etc). Great use of weapons and the enviroment around you. Executions are brutal and some of the bloodiest stuff I've ever seen in a game. I love the finishers, ripping a mans heart out is just to damn fun. I don't know why but I really enjoyed the music, the sound effects are excellent as well. The boss fights are sweet, especially the way you finish them off, they are all different and unique in there own bloody way :) My biggest problem with this game, the god damn camera. Why is it so sloppy? You push C to lock on to an enemy but when you let go of C it stays locked on to that enemy and if you try to run away the camera stays focused on behind you so you can't see what's in front of you. If you just try to throw punches without locking on it's even worse because you'll most likely end up missing. The camera is just really shaky and never sits still. My other problem is that it does get slightly repetitive. It's not a terrible thing about this game but by the end of the game you may grow weary of doing the same basic executions over and over. I also hate how you dodge, shaking the nunchuk is annoying for avoiding attacks I'd rather just push the C button. The levels stay fresh throughout the game adding new ways to destroy your enemies and just locations in general. Starting out in a city, going to a sumo arena, graveyard (my favorite), a dungeon/castle the levels are great. It's a gorefest that Wii owners should not miss. Also, the bloodbath challenges are hilarious. That pimp cracks me up every time.

Stays true to the original and kicks it up a notch.

Even though the story isn't all that great, the gameplay is great (again) both co-op and single player. So much damn fun. Blowing a locusts head off with a sniper rifle never felt so good. My biggest complaint about the game is the online multiplayer, not the local split screen that's still fun. The online takes for damn ever to find a match and get you into the match, by the time it finally finds me one I lost interest. I know not all online multiplayer can be like Call of Duty but it can be better than the match finding in Gears 2. When you actually do get into a match, yes it is fun, but not for that long. I'd rather just play split screen with some friends and put some bots on, at least you don't have to wait 15 mins to find a match. The story is kind of weak and the online is kind of disappointing, those are my only big complaints. I didn't put terrible multiplayer as a con because just the online is a let down the split screen is still fun. Great weapons (of course), incredible graphics (that rock worm looked amazing as it crawled by), wicked enemies, and just a plain badass game.

Oh...I almost forgot, how dare I.

Horde mode is Insane, I love it! Probably the best mode on the game aside from the campaign.

What more can be said about CoD 4?

Now..I could go into great detail about why this game is so amazing. Whether it be the amazing and addicting multiplayer, the graphics, the story mode..etc. But, do I honestly have to? We all know CoD 4 is amazing and has cemented a spot as one of the best FPS's of all time. So...the answer to my question would be no. The games been out damn near a year and people are still buying it and getting hooked. This is a game that will simply never stop being played, at least not anytime soon.
