Agree. Land of the Dead for being released in 2005 is a sad excuse of a game. Maybe if it would have been released in 2000 or in the 90's it would have been called a decent game but nowadays it is crap. The A.I. while supposed to be acting dead, in a weird way, actually feels dead by being so stupid and running into walls or just plain stopping mid break into an attack to just stand in place. The only thing worse there than A.I. is the physics and hitboxes. If you shoot a zombie a few seconds (Yes, Seconds) later the hit MAY register and you could get the kill. Then when this occurs you will laugh as the zombie oddly flys around the room and flops dead in a hysterical death animation or just plain bad physics. Your objectives in LotD are also fairly blank with pointless motive and/or objectives being to just kill all zombies in the area, which gets very boring after about an hour. The thing to top the whole game off is the poor visuals that make you think your back in the Doom and Duke Nukem Shooter Age. With a common assortment of weapons and a poorly made game, I regret even adding Land of the Dead to my collection list on Gamespot. (Mainly due to the badge that I got after doing so... The Bad Taste Badge, Thx LotD and Bet on Soldier! )
