Really looking forward to playing this. I can't believe it'll be out in 2 days

I would agree but I believe Dungeons and Dragons Arcade Collection game is on the 18th... THAT will most likely be my last. At least I hope that date is correct!

Any rate, I hope this title improves my friends list as well as I have been slacking...

Ya this is one of those games that spawns stories about "what happened last time I played"

They passed cert? Hell yeah!
Getting this on Wednesday right after work, and not leaving my couch. Hopefully it lives up to its sandbox goals, and it can prove to be extremely replayable.
This is what I consider the XBLA 360's swan song (unless MS has more surprises at E3). Hopefully it's good.

No love for Super Time Force or Ascend?

If they do follow along with the Xbox Lite. I would assume there will probably be more. Could be wrong.

Yes, yes it is.
Build in the IGN video looks great so far. No noticeable frame-rate issues.

Ya I only noticed one or two spots it was way way better than past builds. It will still be present but not anywhere near as bad.

That's fine by me.
Using a wind up clock as a distraction - Brilliant. It's the little touches that are really impressing me.
This game.

That alarm clock brought nothing but pain to him. Funny funny pain. Loved that whole section.

One of the cooler things...just a little thing. Is the words of inspiration if you have a preacher that gives you back a bit of stamina. There is a very real communal aspect to almost everything. That is just one of so many little things as you mentioned. Like toys you can throw through windows to attract zombies to one side of a house and then go into the other side.
Also the animations for when you have NPC's in your vehicle and your being attacked by zombies is almost unreal. Feels alive.

Indeed. Pretty amateurish. Should have dropped it outside and made his way round the back while they were distracted.
Now that is very cool.
Thanks, will watch it again during my train ride tomorrow morning.

It was so unexpected lol, I was 'oh shit does she have a sliver of health lef- welp that's that'
So I just turned on my 360 to check the amount of MSP I had left...
Fuck me. Fuck me up the ass and call me daisy.
This is the first time a console has ever died on me, and I owned a lot of 'em since the NES and Sakhr. This was the only game on the 360 I really wanted to play, so I guess I'll just have to wait for the PC version.

Oh man, that really sucks. I take it that's the first gen model?
2008 Pro model
haha talk about anticlimactic
As much as I'm excited for The Last of Us, this one seems more intriguing gameplay-wise.
Im not joking i laghed so hard at the manner of the untimely end of his character
Also the bit where he was swamped and jumped out the living room window awesome

Loved that part! I think doing a series on this on my YT channel is going to be excellent with crazy things happening randomly.

Yep. This game seems to be full of surprises... and I've been following it a long time now. Great to see it so close to release and all the little things.

Coming but from the looks of it still a ways off.

I would be surprised it came out this year. I would guess next year at the earliest.

OXM just gave it an 8.
I haven't read the entire review, but the shortlist summary dinged it for mediocre graphics, minimal story and permadeath.
I'm gonna read the whole review, but personally none of those things really seem that essential to this game.
Graphically, it looks alright. Hell it looks better than dragon's dogma a disc based title. Minimal story isn't really thing either to because it's more of a sim anyway (didnt have a problem with zero story in XCOM it was all about moments). And permadeath is actually a plus becuase it gives the game consequence and risk/reward (buzz phrase of 2013).
That said they've played it and I haven't so their opinions are more defensible.

That's bullshit if true.

permadeath is seen as a negative? What casualised gaming nightmare am I living in?
This is why we cant have nice things. Goddamn reviewers.
Why? It's a Live Arcade game first and foremost.
