Can anyone tell me what sets this game apart from all the other Zombie/survival horror games? Seriously, I want to know. This game has been hyped heavy for over a year and I never understood why. Judging from the reviews it lived up to and exceeded that hype but how?
This is not a zombie game, there aren't zombies in the game. Those enemies you've seen are humans infected with some sort out outbreak that mutates them.
The game is survival/action with some elements of horror stemming from it's tense moments when encountering the enemies and some of the environments. The narrative, production values, presentation, gameplay and mechanics all mesh together to form an excellent game judging the reviews.

Check out the E3 demo video to see why it's been hyped up so much. It blew us away with how advanced the AI seemed to be and how gritty and realistic it appeared.

Never bought a game purely off of reviews but I read that IGN shyt and instantly preordered the game without even seeing any gameplay videos of this shyt.

fukk a pre-order son, going to Man of Steel then hitting up my local Gamestop (for the first time in years). About to be feasting next Friday.

I've been avoiding gameplay videos but I watched a bit of this one. That young bytch is talking too much, I hope she shuts her yap or I'll have to through on some Brian Eno to drown her ass out.
