O....M....G!!!!!!!!!!
if you own a 360, this is one of those"you WILL have" games that it is not just extremely advised to buy, but COMPULSORY.
you start off, getting used to the basics, which is very quickly done, then striaght into the action.
the first gun you get is a burst fire weapon with no chainsaw but you still somehow manage to kill everything.
then you get the full auto rifle, with chainsaw bayonet. you think it will be gory when used, what you expect and what happens is just in another ball park, i was expecting just to see it saw agianst somthings neck and a little spit of blood to come out, but no, it saws the guy IN HALF and the entire screen is just covered in blood! you cant even see what your doing until it drys off. and this isnt even past the first 10 minutes. it game is just brilliant, the graphics are top notch, gameplay just keeps coming, and the playability of it is immense, it takes you a day of constant, uninterupted playing just to get to the end, on CASUAL! .......CASUAL!!
i dont even want to go near insane! i might hurt myself!
there are so many weapons in the game, you'll just be playing about with them for ages. my fav is the bow, you tense it back, let it go and they fly back about 5 feet, get up, then EXPLODE! the only reason it is given a .3 is because of my bias towards the price of the game. dont let it put you off, save up, raid your parents' joint account, sell your grandmother to slave merchants. anything to buy it.
