zombiu review

The sense of dread is amazing to me. @polivar4 didn't see this until just now but there's a lot of code doors in this game and I don't know if they ever have the same code, most seem randomly generated and you will need an upgrade to your prepper pad to get the right code.

The same can be said for the game's local multiplayer and online features. Still scary! I'm loving this game. This review has only further cemented my belief that I've made the right decision, roll on next Friday... TBH im really glad its not another Left for Dead type game or the Zombie Mode in COD.

Is ZombiU a survivor against a horde of zombie-themed entertainment during the busiest video games release window of the year? While I have a Masters Degree in Economics and other studies in marketing, computer programming and accounting, I spent every waking minute pursuing my passions of media entertainment instead.

I loved how they used the game pad, but running was an issue. @MoonKnight7 Did you only play the demo? Bigger, non-linear environments give you more options for approaching a situation, but this just seems to force the action upon you, which sort of contradicts the permadeath/roguelike inspiration.. Also, the combat itself doesn't look much fun. If we ever see a sequel, it will most likely be exclusively NOT on the Wii U like every other retail Ubisoft game this year. Not to say every idea on their consoles is great or deserves a good score, but, I really feel as though this game got the short end if the stick when it comes to reviews. I don't usually read the review, but I do look at the stars at the bottom. A cultural thing, perhaps? The Prepper hooks you up with some pretty sweet tech that makes great use of the various functions of the GamePad, with the most basic being a map and inventory screen. A zombie tackle means instant death, unless you have some Virucide. @MoonKnight7 Really? Great review for a very good launch game. Well either way, horror themed games are usually very niche and I'm not surprised that "hardcore" gamer review sites rated it lower than Nintendo Life, for one thing, ZombiU is on a Nintendo platform, if it had been on the 360 or PS3 it would've got higher reviews perhaps.

The game is hard, even on Chicken difficulty, because without that challenge most of the atmosphere would be lost. WiiU; by Patrick Klepek on November 20, 2012. It’s standard fare, but it's effective enough to provide adequate player motivation during the tense campaign. While you won’t have access to that character anymore, they’re not really gone; you’ll need to hunt their newly-zombified form down and kill it to get all of your hard-earned items back. It looks promising, but I think I will wait for a sequel. Also, you have many "quick use" buttons on the GamePad's touch screen to which you can assign items, and predictably during the heat of battle you'll unfortunately wind up hitting the wrong one quite a few times. Game of the Year, for me.

After Red Steel - Ubisoft’s hardcore offering at the Wii’s launch - failed to win over the masses by making large promises it failed to deliver on, public response to ZombiU has typically been laced with skepticism. Most people that have given this game a bad review tend to forget its an actual SURVIVAL HORROR and to be quite honest would probably be zombie food and die anyway if there was an actual zombie apocalypse…no offense intended but i would put u out of ur misery without any hesitation. Had to beat Mario first and, you know, make a living and stuff. Zombie designs aren't super varied, but the environments all look great and definitely help set up the tense, horrifying atmosphere that the team behind the game has set out to create. Such a great experience, looking forward to it! There are two modes, one where the object is to kill as many zombies as possible before the survivor dies, and the much more fun Capture the Flag mode. This is why I must buy this. Yes exactly! I'm twenty years old, and I wasn't able to complete the demo, because I was FREAKING SCARED! Maxwell McGee Most of the time, they're like the Hulk, they just don't go down. Return it. I'm also an Editor for Screen Rant so I've got all of your entertainment needs covered! And while “pleasing” isn't exactly the right word, the game impresses aurally as well, with great voice acting from the Prepper and some of the best zombie moans and groans we've had the pleasure of hearing in a long time. Zombie U is a unique experience in survival that uses the Wii U gamepad in many intelligent ways. It's just more of a chore than a game to me. I just recently picked up the game and love every minute of it.

The Prepper was quite good and hearing moans, but not being sure exactly where they were coming from - instant classic. This game seems to totally ignore that, which is fine, but there should be something you can use / do to easily defeat them. Read on for our review. I am glad you guys do what you do. I know your post is old, but I have to comment. I'm with ya on this one, I'm certainly glad I didn't spend money on it. I would still consider playing it if it had off-tv play but, since it doesn't, I am going to pass on it. It does have some nice ideas and you can tell it's purely experimental. Upon death by zombie, the character the player controls is dead. You need a javascript enabled browser to watch videos. Fun game. Progression seems to be very linear, and zombies don't spawn randomly each playthrough, which doesn't do much for replay value.

There are no helicopters, explosions or running and gunning. This game does deserve an 8. With the controller handling so much of the interface it's easy to get lost in it, especially in intense moments with a lot coming at you. I do so because I enjoy it. As far as the zombies go, it was just the fact that they were so "hulk" like. Good luck!

Your survivor is given a name and an occupation, but that’s it; they are a silent protagonist through and through. You just stand there, hitting and waiting. But as you said, third person would have been better and the visuals weren't anything to write home about, as a lot of textures are muddy and pixelated. Their brains were basically falling out but they were still chomping away. I was lucky enough to play ZombiU at Braehead in Glasgow and it was great. I had already pre-ordered the ZombiU bundle and now I cannot wait to pick it up! https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/zombiu-review/1900-6400225

Just keep the dang thumb-stick pressed down while you run, that's what I was having problems with. The presentation works great to that end. I'd say around 800,000 to 1,000,000 adding in digital sales (assuming people bougt it digitally). That way you can intelligently argue why a game is, or is not fun to you or perhaps someone you may know. Shouts of "I thought we were partners!" Looks absolutely freaking terrifying, but I'm glad to hear it's fun!

You actually have to time your attacks.... even better. The player is immediately put in control of another survivor awakening at base camp, following the same orders from The Prepper over the intercom. I'm not sure I made the right choice in not getting this on launch day. @Tsuchiya Here's your demo: http://mynintendonews.com/2012/11/23/zombiu-demo-hitting-nintendo-eshop-on-wii-u-before-december-15th/. Hmm. Fingers crossed. But just like the story of the Emperor's New Clothes, there are always people who defend crap, because they don't want to admit they are eating crap, and try to convince the rest of us it isn't crap. We laughed at how easily I killed my first few zombies! Always looked like a generic survival-horror game to me with not much to set it apart from the crowd, but good to see it performed better than I was anticipating. In the beginning, your hero is taken in by the Prepper, a military man well versed in zombie survival (and conspiracy theories). But like any shooter on the 360 or PS3, once people have played it, it usually sits on their shelves gathering dust, while gamers look forward to a better shooter.

This game is great, but still leaves room for improvement; I do hope they come out with a second game! I WILL BE PICKING UP A FRESH COPY THIS WEEK!! Ubisoft's ZOMBIU -- as the name suggests -- is a zombie thriller designed for Nintendo's new Wii U video game console. Pretty good start for the Wii U then, onwards and upwards! Looking forward to this, just a little disappointed there's no online play. I did initially cancel my preorder until I read Edge's review which got me interested again.

The game's combat mechanics and inventory systems are disorienting at first, but after the learning curve and once mastering the screens and scanning functions, players will soon appreciate the unique experience ZombiU attempts to offer. It says something about my trust in Nintendolife and it's reviews that I am putting Zombie U back on my shopping list!

@MoonKnight7 Shows you what I know, I didn't even know you could run till you just said it and I'm still enjoying it! Great review, im glad i pre_ordered the bundle with "N"-land. Mutiplayer looks awesome btw.
