You got Snipers in my Zombies; or did you get Zombies in my Snipers? I don't know anymore. Hello Gaming internet B-rod here again to review the pack of DLC known as Zombie Army Trilogy. This is the zombie themed DLC for Sniper Elite 3 that I was so excited to play and immediately regretted. I'll explain everything don't you worry, so lets grab our trusty rifle and get into this.
The story is about Hitler; that little scamp decides to raise the dead over losing WW2. So as you would expect all the Nazis are coming back to life to munch of the handful of survivors brains. I didn't play much of it besides knowing that the story is a lot like Left 4 Dead with the whole we went here and zombies and now to this location with more zombies. The games sound is great. I typically don't think zombies are of any significant threat but this ones are so when you hears their blood curdling screams you know you are in the shit. The game looks just okay. While the areas are varied enough, the game loses some points with the lack of a color pallet. Gray,black and red colors get old really fucking quick. The gameplay is interesting to say the least. You take the Sniper Elite concept of killing enemies from afar, and you have those enemies walk, or saunter at you. While I appreciate the game isn't just zombies with guns (which is present in the game) it feels still somewhat generic. I think being that the only sure way to kill a zombie is by shooting it in the head you don' t try trick shots. Besides the funny factor why would you ever even try to shoot a zombie in the balls it is useless. With most of the zombies usually getting within a 50 foot radius of you and constantly moving closer it makes being zoomed in all the way pointless. I truly believe as a single player experience this game falls flat on its face. Yet with multiple people this could be a helluva great time with a ton of zombie killing action. This is again much like Left 4 Dead. Alone the game feels repetitive and bland with people it is a great zombie killing cooperative rampage. The game is only fun with others which makes the rating a much lower one. I would recommend that people at least borrow this game it is worth seeing if this is your cup of tea. Much like my sniping this game missed me by a mile. I give this a 2/5. I leave with a question. Wouldn't the DLC been so much better if the kept the sniper like gameplay and had you fight aliens instead? |
