    Right on!

    It's good to see an empowered female role model in games at last.

      Female role models

      Well I have a 14 year old sulk monster and she occasionally plays games - she has to have the female character - her favourite is Elena

      That is the one where you show the zombie 14yo boys a suggestively titled download progress bar and they are too busy eagerly waiting for it to finish to fend off your attacks.

    Kerching!

    Zombies, a cute blonde cheerleader, and chainsaw action? AND with Toni Basil's "Mickey"!?! This will be a top-ten game.

      Re: Kerching!

      Maybe, maybe not.

      See also Sucker Punch. I really, really tried to like that film...

        Go on then - how many people first saw that and thought Infamous

          Not me. I've never played Infamous but I did enjoy Sucker Punch.

          I also saw the phrase 'PC alligators' in the review but I think my attention was directed somewhere other than the copy.

    When is this out for the PC?

    I can't wait! Zombie killing chainsaw fun here I come!

    Paris, because she was awesome in that movie House of Wax where she got killed about 1000 times.

    Thats dissappointing

    > decision to have her expose her knickers at every opportunity

    She's wearing knickers? Not worth playing then.

    Or can we expect a patch to resolve that issue?

    mmm chainsaws

    Bugger games, I'm getting the four star n oil out and chopping stuff down for real tomorrow.

    You kids muck about with your consoles, the real thing is much more fun and strangely cheaper in the long run. There's nothing like the feel of sap mixed with chippings dripping down your legs and the taste of petrol fumes in your nostrils to get the blood boiling.

    You might get a callous on your trigger finger, I might chop off my hand if I make a mistake.

    Each to their own, I suppose.

    Cheers

    PS If I impress the wife enough, she might get the cheerleader kit out 8)

      Re: mmm chainsaws

      Ohh yess, chainsaws...

      I own two of the buggers (and have a LANTRA ticket to use 'em).

      Interestingly, a couple of months back, I went from cutting up a rather awkward windblow in the morning to setting up a Zoneminder box late in the afternoon, both legitimate duties as part of my current job, I expect to be busy again with the saws in a couple of months time.

      On Monday, I've a Stihl saw to sort out, a DAW machine to commision and a CAM design to finish.

      some days I do love vague job descriptions..beats straight 18 hour shifts in front of a bunch of screens.

    Good game...

    Had it since release day - pre-ordered it based on the premise alone.

    I found it a bit short, but there's definitely replay value. I really wish that they had included the Japanese voice packs as well as the English dub... I'd really dig hearing Eri Kitamura as Juliet.

    The wife liked it as well, even though she just watches me play. If she was a bit more of a gamer I could see her actually having a go, but she's not. Oh wells.

    Paris, mostly because there's no chainsaw icon.

    She looks like my girlfriend

    The one in the "Roundhouse flick" image on page 3, that is. The one on the left.
