Rock of the Dead in Review (PS3/360)

EDIT NOV 26, 2010 - Was watching G4Tech this morning and Reviews on the Run did a short review of Rock of the Dead - they crapped on it, giving it a humbling 4 out of 10. I found my review to be alittle more informative and definitely kinder. Still, I was here first bitches. -sincerely Jimmy Tehfreak



Jimmy Tehfreak reviews "Rock of the Dead" for PS3 and XBox 360. This is part 1, which covers the plot of the game as well as its selling points.

Part 2 (with feedback on where the game did well, faltered - and where the developers can still redeem their product - coming soon.

things not mentioned in the video that should be noted:
-if the developers had taken alittle more time itd be hard to believe they couldnt have gotten more artists involved.. ministry, cannibal corpose, mastodon - these would have been great additions if the game wasnt rushed to be out in time for halloween.

-no plot should be completable in under 4 hours - the story went by too quickly - even the ghostbusters game ran about 8 hours before you got to the end of the storyline.

-the script writing was fantastic - great humor and in no ways repetitive - unlike most games - this was where the attention to detail was very clearly shown.

-the endings, obviously at the time i had posted my video (within a week of release) we only had the two obvious endings - i am holding hope that when you reach 100% completion theres a better ending - or perhaps an additional level - but it seems alittle unlikely.

Overall - like i said in the review - its probably worth buying - but its best to wait for the price to drop - it will likely be with the NBA Ballers game at your gamestop bargain bin - which sucks because it has the potential to be much bette
