We’ll never, ever, get that time back boys and girls.

I remember the Godzilla fighting game having major cities for the levels. Hitting a pal with the space needle was fun.

Finally got a chance to play this. I agree the above criticisms (it’s repetitive, graphics a bit generic, the interface could give you more help/feedback, could do with being a bit shorter), but it’s still the most fun I’ve had in a good while.

Reminded me quite bit of Rampage, too (anyone else remember it? Mid 80′s King Kong/Godzilla homage), in that each level is based on a real city. More games should do this – it’s a small touch but it adds a lot.

Played a bit, quit. Fun, but it stops feeling like, well, a thing as you go, if my meaning is caught.

So I managed to waste all afternoon, and killed every city, and somehow I’ve not got the reward for killing the whole earth, wtf?

Also, Speed Speed Infection Speed Speed.

Faster zombies have, in effect, a longer lifespan (they can go further before they die), more durability (they get shot less either due to dodging or because they get to the soldier sooner) as well as doing more damage (people avoid them less easily, so they die sooner).

Infection Rate is pretty vital as well though, you really want to get it up to at least 50% as soon as possible, so you can get a real horde going.

Once you’ve done that, you’ll start sailing through levels, and pumping up the other stats with ease.

Of the specials, (no spoilers) 3 is best kept back and used against other Specials, or dropped into a group of Soldiers. 4 is GREAT for dropping on groups of Soldiers, or any other mass of people. 5 and 8 are good to drop into the middle, away from your main zombies, as your grunts will draw the fire of the military and the specials ranged ability will pick off the soldiers from a distance. 6 and 7 should, if possible, be stuck inside a building, or otherwise away from the military as much as possible, they are fragile and the longer they last the better they are.

You just have to keep upgrading stuff until you can beat them, you get money even if you lose so keep plugging away at it. If you see a bunch of soldier on screen try and infect them with your initial hit.

Well what the fuck happened? I was on this article, i clicked something and…hours later i awoke to a game over screen telling me i got 60.000 points for something.

But really now, the col chicken guy is just superb. He MUST be in Left 4 Dead. I’m not sure because of the ugly graphics but i think he’s flashing people and zombie chickens come out.

Is there something I’m not getting? I’m only playing the early stages but it seems like if there are no soldiers on the map, I win. If there are they effortlessly gun down all my zombies. Upgrades don’t seem to matter.

Yeah, I must have just spent 2 hours beating this too, gets a bit tedious but it’s still quite adictive non the less.

I played it like 2 weeks ago basically during one of my classes. Fun but not as compelling as the first one. Feels much more like work and you fail a lot more (or I’m just terrible). And no clear way to get the special infected, though I stopped around Central America.
