Normally, I don't trust reviews of video games. Someone could tell me a game sucks and it's usually something that I end up buying and enjoying the hell out of. I remember back in my first year of University one of my friends told me Fallout 3 sucks, so I went out and bought the Game of the Year edition for my PS3 and ended up enjoying it for a couple months.
So I picked up my WiiU Sunday night since I had a few articles to proofread at work. I decided to pick up a couple games, one of them being ZombiU and the two others being Mario and Scribblenauts.
So far I didn't really enjoy NSMBU as much as I thought it would. Sure it's fun to pick up and play but after awhile I got a little bored and felt like I was playing one of the other NSMB games.
I didn't get much time with Scribblenauts either, didn't know very much about what it was supposed to be either. So after toying around with Miiverse I decided to throw in ZombiU. I read a lot of horrible things about it on some 'trusted' game review sites that my friends read and felt a little nervous at first, the console is still young and I didn't want to neglect it two days in already.
So, day four of having my WiiU. ZombiU is spectacular, it's like Demon Souls with zombies pretty much. The difficulty level is up there and the immersion with the WiiU Gamepad is extraordinary! Remember that feeling you got when you played Metroid Prime 3 (assuming you have) and you felt like Samus? Retro totally made you feel like you were doing all that ****. It's the same thing Ubisoft did with ZombiU.
If you love zombies or zombie video games then this is the ultimate, this game is everything Dead Island wanted to be but couldn't.
