I loved the first one. My son and I played the heck out of it, and can't wait for this one. It comes two days before his birthday, and it is the only thing on his list.

(It's supposed to look like a zombie smiley...)

Nice trailer!

Cool!

360 or PC?

Maybe I'll actually finish my first control panel once it is done.

Thanks Gary! Valve rocks!

Any chance you guys did a commentary? I've been checking out the ones you recorded for the Half-Life games and it's a cool feature.

In that video, I didn't see the gut spilling I'd read about. It's in there, right?

Can't wait to kill some zombies in the daytime. I'll be playing this game day one. (Again, thanks Gary...

)

I showed him the trailer this morning.

Is there any way to turn the blood off so it's kid friendly?

Just make a mod for it with confetti or flowers. Maybe the medkits could be used by the zombies and have their boo-boos bandaged with Hello Kitty Band-Aids.

Really, though, the blood isn't the only reason kids should avoid it. There's more than just blood going on here.

I guess the sarcasm was implied.

There is a low gore option. It's still an M-rated game though.

bkenobi:
You do raise a point, though. I wish games did give language options. It doesn't really bother me, but, for instance, I was playing House of the Dead: Overkill at a friend's house and there were kids in the room. We had to send them out of the room over a game on the freakin' Wii!

An option to bleep the language, or have an alternate voice-over track, would be nice.

I'm cranking my gore to 11!

Good thing you can turn the blood off cause it would be way too disturbing seeing a zombie cut in half by a chainsaw if there was blood involved.

I'm pretty sure the low gore option turns off the dismemberment. Not entirely sure though since I haven't played it that way.

Dismemberment will be awesome, but I'm more interested in the disembowelment!

Since this one has daylight levels, are there some nice uses of HDR going on? I love it in the Half-Life games.

Let the guy spam his work a little.

I doubt many of us put in more hours than he does.

We played the demo this evening, and I have to say...

Great stuff!

My son loved the frying pan and guitar.

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #18 on:** November 03, 2009, 08:55:48 pm »

Oh, the demo's out?

checks Steam....

It already installed it for me! Awesome -- time to try it out!

Edit: Stupid piece of ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- demo won't work. Argh....

Edit2: Got it working. Had to redownload it, but it now works. I CAN'T WAIT to play the full game!

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #19 on:** November 05, 2009, 12:58:31 pm »

Played some more...

The 17th isn't getting here soon enough! I'm playing this demo over and over in anticipation.

Screw the haters, this game rocks!

Agreed.

Just downloaded the demo myself and it was a blast. I haven't had a chance to play the first one, so now I have to catch up.
