DOOKH8R Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Its consistently available for 44.99. Whether you like it or not depends on what you personally like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackalus88 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 If you like light-hearted, fun and hilarious games, I'd highly recommend it as thanks to Juliet and Nick's conversations alone, it was well worth the £30 I paid for it. If you enjoy seeing how you rank up against friends and others world wide when it comes to killing zombies aswell as unlocking everything that's available, then yes, there's some replayability after the 1000GS.

XperimntNterror Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 if you can get it on the cheap, it's worth a purchase; definitely not worth full price in my opinion, but i fell for it. definitely worth a rental at the very least. Pros: an interesting spin on the 'kill hordes of undead' gametype excellent writing and voice acting (the game is very cheeky and never takes itself seriously; plays on it's b-movie vibe well an equally excellent soundtrack and visual style Cons: as with a lot games of this ilk, the camera sucks combat is sluggish (no block button... really?) and combos can be a little spotty at times probably my biggest gripe, every 10 seconds there's a pause in the action to point out the next point of interest, listen to a zombie yack his head off or some other minor scene. this gets a little annoying... even during the FIRST playthrough. not a lot of incentive to keep playing after you've finished it once, unless you're an achievement whore (like me!) and/or really, really want to grind for medals to buy all the other non-achievement related items (costumes).

Doopliss SWE Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (no block button... really?) In hack n' slash games you dodge, not block. That's how it is in Bayonetta, and I'm quite sure it's like that in DMC too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i fist brown i Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 i rented it and by time i got my 1000 i had enough with it. People find this game to be funny but the script IMO sounds like a 10 year old wrote it and i found it very annoying. BUT!!!! the gameplay is awesome and i loved trying to get huge sparkle hunting combos while playing. For me, the only funny part was when i first entered the shop and that Lollipop song was playing.

That's not the rule. Ninja Gaiden would be example of a game of this type having a block button. The difference with Bayonetta and DMC, in comparison to this game, is that in lieu of the ability to block attacks, a key mechanic is parrying (Witch Time in Bayonetta) which is integral to chaining combos. This game really has no key mechanic like that. You can leap frog, but you can also easily get through the entire game without ever using it. Just would've been nice to have such a mechanic... or at least a block button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reaper527 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Sick of hearing these comments on great games. its supposedly a short game, and short games are very rarely worth full price. don't get me wrong, i'm enjoying the game and having a blast so far, but i don't see much room for re-playability on it after the 1k, which is what the op asked. bottom line: rent it or get it at a good price, but definitely play it.

Just would've been nice to have such a mechanic... or at least a block button. Witch time is activated by timing a dodge well in Bayonetta, not parrying. Haven't played NG though, so I'll just have to trust you on that. And I've only played DMC4, but the only parries you can do there is using Dante's queens guard or what's-it-called stance, no? Haven't played it for a couple of years, and I was a hack n' slash newb at the time, so I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demolition D Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I LOVE this game! A lot of fun. Hot cheerleader kills zombies with a chainsaw? YES! It took about 5-6hrs. Replay in this game is HIGH. So, total time about 12hrs. Perfect. Then it will sit in my library until DLC or time passes and want to kill zombies again. BUY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rep Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I think it would be worth the $60 since it's extremely addicting. Probably the most fun game that I have played all year thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules the great Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 i finished the platinum trophy on the ps3 version this morning and honestly I loved the game. Its such a silly game with some hilarious references. I dont think its really worth 60 bucks. Definatley a rental. But its a damn good rental.

SarahAran Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 It's a good game, but I would say it's a rent. After getting the full 1000, I am done with it. It is enjoyable though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mc1ovin11 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I've been unsure whether to buy or rent this one considering current cashflow problems so having read your posts i'm gonna go for a rental.I must play this game-any game that gives an achievement for looking up a cheerleaders skirt has got to be played:woop:...Giggerdy!!

slimepunch Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Amazing how people say buy it only if it's cheap. I guess the developers don't deserve the pay for putting the sweat into making the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nia333 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I rented and will probably get the full 1000 on the Xbox. I will then buy the PS3 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimepunch Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) everyone in the world isn't made of money. But they'll be quick to spend the full RRP on the same old crap that is CoD. Something different like L.C comes along and people think it should be a budget price game. Stupidity knows no bounds.
