First world problems

So my expert, in-depth review after 15 minutes....game is fun.

The gameplay kind of reminds of red dead the way the character moves, jumps, etc. maybe that's just me. Not exactly the same but similar feeling.

On one hand I wish there more search options when raiding a camp site. On the other hand, if they let you search EVERYTHING it would turn in to zombie skyrim so I think they did that right. I'd get lost in just rummaging thru crap.

What I really like is that while you can pause the game it doesn't pause while you are cycling or using items giving it a true survival feel

When I died and there was no restarting with that character I was sold.

Trying to equip a shotgun while a zombie hoard chases you and you're running out of stamina? Good luck lol

I like the limits they put on you. I had to drop my whooping stick (the branch) to grab the shotgun. My guy was all excited when I picked it up "aw yeah!" Lol

I played about 20 min before I had to leave for work. Ill say it already. Probably one of the best xbla purchases you will make. $20 to download a full true open world true survival zombie game? IN!

I like the zombies walking around with undead labs hoodies lol

Yes you can download the demo which also serves as your full game download later by allowing you to unlock the full game. It's a fun game.

Like I said before you could level a guy up really high and if he dies he's gone forever.

That's real survivor horror

Tbh, depending on how long and in depth the full version gets I'd go as far as to say it would be worth a full $60 purchase. Based off the gameplay, style, options, etc in just the first half hour it looks like sod > dead island IMO. $20 for a game of this scale (what I imagine the scale to be anyway) is a gift from xbla

Decay doesn't have sinamoi so that is a negative.

a lot of the reviewers are comparing this game to DayZ.

2 IGN game reviewers disagree and in fact said that after playing 8 hours it had more replay-ability.


they were highly impressed seeing how this is Undead Labs first title.

Honestly all it's missing is the PvP. Why wouldn't they include that!
