Hi, there's a new shooter available. First game scored 3 of 5, so it wasn't a half bad, anybody know about the new one?
P.S. I wonder if they distribute this kind of games in Indochina.

this game is awesome , o and we should add this to the Zombie list ... but yeah Shellshock 2 is about a package Whiteknight that turns people into Zombies... its got so friking scary moments here and there... wait a sec , will post a movie of me playing

but how to visualize it to you hmmm... imagine Vietnam ... no no imagine the HELL of VIETNAM and the attacks of VC and then suddenly americans get a hold of a secret weapon a infection that turns people into zombies "WhiteKnight" and with it they want to win the war ... but it goes bad and VC, Americans and all civis are zombies waiting to kill you

It does look cool, and the concept is kind of new -survival horror in a war zone- There's already a reloaded Iso for it and it won't even be released until the end of the month...

Well, I've decided to try it out and...it wasn't awesome. It is in fact mediocre budget shooter with awkward controls. Graphics are ok, but palette is too dark and monotonous. I'm surprised by A.I. behavior, for example zombie when zombie runs at you, but suddenly keep running after you and then strikes from the side. Also, they used cheapest trick possible - respawning enemies, really, when you don't want to think much about scripts or decent level design just create as much respawn points as you can. It's just not fun, when zombie spawns just behind your back.

Game is not really gruesome or scary (compared to the Tokyo Gore Police I've seen last week), not even close to RTCW. I won't mention idiotic storyline, just say once again that it is just a budget shooter, devs ran out of ideas, so they merged concept of zombies outbreak and Vietnam war theme. If you want go for Vietcong or at least for Man of Valor.

You've got that right. The first part was a real puke and the second is even worse. All these zombies seem out of the place. Hope there wont be the 3 part.
