I think 6.0 is a little harsh on a game that has turned out to be quite a bit of fun!! Whether a solo shooter or teamed with a buddy this game definitely packs a bang for the buck. Hey my wife even likes it! I picked up a couple of the Nyko Perfect Shot Wii accessories (by far the best of the shooter paraphernalia) and I gotta say goin' in double-wielding is a blast. Whether you were a fan of the arcade game, or you are new to HOD there is something for everyone. There is something very relaxing about blasting zombies shooter style. Not to mention I dig the old school cheesy voice over...."I don't want to DIE!!" The game has several different options and play types and you are able to adjust the accuracy of your weapon of choice. HOD2 is a six shooter offering a higher level of difficulty than it's shotgun toting, wider blast range counterpart HOD3. Either one of these is good for hours of enjoyment. The only drawback so far is that there are no save points. You have to start over at the beginning when you die!! Just a bigger incentive to make sure you don't miss your targets!! If you are looking for a fun way to pass the time or if you are a fan of the game already...I recommend picking this one up. I also recommend the Nyko Perfect Shots (2 to be exact) as it definitely makes the game more fun. Don't listen to the nay say-ers, this game has value!!
