When i first heard about RDR: UN, i was afraid that this was going to be another "zombie game" in which everyone would just mindlessly slaughter zombies with uber-guns. But no, this is better, find out why in my review:
Gameplay: Nothing different from the original RDR, so don't get all excited and hope for a new combat system (no V.A.T.S. !). But TT does manage to make the system seem a bit smoother, if that's even possible...
Storyline: I was simply blown away by the new storyline. I mean, seriously, they were able to make a great game with top-notch graphics and combat without sacrificing ANY storyline! John Marshton returns in this sub-sequel to fight the living undead which have invaded a town. There are no moral choices (bad yet good) which eliminates any moral questioning about your methods in killing the zombies. I won't spoil a bit though! Sorry!
Graphics/Sound: Nothing better, nothing worse. Don't get your pants in a knot, waiting for some new graphic property that they added.
Conclusion: Yes, this is more of a stand-alone DLC rather then a sequel, so don't expect anything major. I rented it, completed it and found plenty of enjoyement, but i think it's not worth the purchase unless you are really trying to a make an M-Rated PS3 Grand Collection, like i am.
OUTLAWS TO THE END!! (even in the looming apocalypse!)
