Some of the most fun I've ever had in a co-op game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
82 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Speaking of graphics, actual AAA lvls of graphical eye-gasam inducing legendary lvls of quality and yet still no lag or fps drop.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Against the monsters themselves, assault weapons (rifle, shotgun) are effective, while their specific weaknesses require specialized arms (flamethrower, freeze ray, laser, or electric gun).
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Scary as hell atmosphere, cool contracts and difficulty modifiers, and fun as hell with friends!
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Worth the price, extremly pretty for 5 GB of space and the sound design is insane.
