OUTSTANDING!!!!!!

This game lives up to all of the hype if you ask me. the graphics are top notch, and the sound is equally great. the splattering blood, the chainsaws reving, the curb stomping, explosions, and the locusts hissing -- it all sounds incredible. the controls are a little tricky at first, but become very easy after a little while, and i really like the controls. the cover scheme is probably the best out there. there is plenty of in your face action, especially when playing online. the campaign is very fun, and even more awesome if you play through it with a buddy. the communication is totally there, as you will need to talk to your buddy and work together. also, the game at several points gives you the option to take one path or another, which adds to the replayability. when played on insane mode, the campaign is just straight up hard, and will be a great sense of accomplishment when completed. the only thing left to talk about is the multiplayer. its simply amazing. the 4 on 4 multiplayer works incredibly well, and the maps are all really awesome and well designed. the maps are the perfect size. i have not yet noticed any lag, the game seems to run smooth in the multiplayer as well. so to this point, everything in the game is perfect...whats my one complaint? well, my ONLY complaint that i can think of is that often times i find myself frustrated trying to get into a multiplayer match. sometimes it says you have lost connection with the host when you hit join match. it does this a little too often, and is a bit annoying. the good news is, this is an easy fix with the next update, im sure theyll adress it. other than that, this is the best game ive played since halo. it is very addicting and ....there is chainsaws and curb stomping!
