New ZombiU Gameplay Video

Sep

2012

The Wii gamepad controls shown in this video for ZombiU look interesting. I like using it for crafting your weapons and organizing the inventory but I don’t know how I feel about using it as the sniper scope.

Sep

2012

Although this game is an oldie but a goodie, the improvements that SEGA added were surely welcomed. Things that have been given a face-lift are the HD graphics upgrade, the addition of the manual camera (which drove me nuts in the original), as well as all the bonus stuff in the game. Released early for Playstation Plus members, users were ...
