So what spec eggsbocks would I need were I to buy this? Would it work on the Arcade pack, or would I need to buy HDD etc?

*tempted*

Hmm, maybe next month then. Getting the HDD one would tip it over the 'Likely to wind Wrysmile up' price line...

Yeah I found the way round that with Random One was to buy the arcade for just over a ton, then buy a refurbed 20gigger for 20 quid a few weeks later. Spreading the cost dilutes the impact of the over all purchase. :D

Of course now I'm installing to hard drive etc I just HAVE to get a 120 gigger...:o:hmm:

lol

Stealth buy ftw.
 
I got a monitor for £30 :D now I have to wait for fuck knows how long for STEAM to download the game...

despite the fact the DVD is in the disk drive...


ARGH!!
 
Had a great game tonight on live, with three American guys (all friends), good players and fucking funny banter!
 
Good games tonight, I've no idea how the hell we're meant to survive the hospital though!

That said I've got an inkling staying up top as I did quite a lot helps. Maybe just planting the gas cannisters on the level with the machine cannon and molotoving/pipe bombing as they crowd below may be the way to go?

Great game!

Staying in the radio room on the helicopter level finally got us through it. That was rock hard just on normal, god knows what hard is like. It definitely rewards teamwork, as soon as you go off alone something happens.
 
Ah excellent! Sorry couldn't stick around longer, was just too bloody tired to focus properly...look forward to playing with you guys again.

Oh yeah how did you manage to have two versions of yourself?!
 
yeah, you've got to stick with the group. I love it, great game.

I think we should move on to the next missions....

that was his mate.

how come we couldn't hear you?
 
Kid_Eternity said:
No idea, when our first game finished I stopped hearing you, very odd.

yeah, it was weird. no idea why that happened. I could hear BMD but couldn't hear you. it seems a bit patchy. still, you seemed to pick up what we were doing... that was good old fashioned gaming, we had to sort out a strategy that stopped us dying in about 30 secs... actually having to think how to finish a game.. great!

Yeah, that was the coolest part playing with people who actually wanted to work together properly.

We need a bit more practice on the reload/shoot thing though although it is hard not to just spray and pray when the Z's starting running madly about! :D

it's easy to panic! I think the key to the game is each person having a role and sticking to it, otherwise you end up with 4 people all surrounded by zombies, or incapacitated by a boss and then you're fucked. if we could sort it so we move with one at the front, one covering each side and one covering the back then we'd be alright.... it's great though.... it'd have helped if we could've heard you!

Yeah it was great, nice one for sticking around til we finished the game. :)

My mate was co-oping from my house, we were on split screen and unless you actually create a new log-in it just copies your original.

Yep, totally agree. I was thinking the same thing this morning, left front, right front etc. Covering when reloading. Staying in the same space and using the comms. The boss stuff needs thinking about but I imagine that if you all stay together then it's easier to deal with.
 
Agree with the movement thing, and yeah it would been bloody useful if I could heard and spoken with you guys. Head sets are a must for this game!

I'm around tomorrow evening if anyone fancy killing some zombies. :D
 
The game was brill, but the story was too short lived unfortunately :(

I'd like to see some different DLC campaigns added to try extend the life of the game.
