Yeah, got this the other day, and it's truly great. Nice little shooter, lets you drive vehicles and it's got clever group AI - similar to Halo in many respects, except 3rd person. Just got past the bit with the Zombiebot King, can't help thinking of Futurama. Hopefully I'll be playing the multiplayer properly tonight, but the maps look pretty cool and the vehicles should make it interesting.
I was playing this with one of my mates yesterday, it is very, very good. Too bad I got put off right near the end thanks to awful controls. For the most part they're fine, but you'll know which bit I mean when you reach it.
The zombie bots scare the crap out of me though. They just won't die.

Fair enough, not to everyone's taste I suppose. I really like it though, and just had to everyone, for some strange reason, on the Internet.
I've not got the full game, but have a demo if it which I played enough to form an opinion of.

The best vehicle is the little loader - it's like the Ghost from Halo, but it's got pincers that let you pick up players and drop them down holes/in lava/etc. You can hijack them too...well they did it to me in the game, then they got in my own vehicle and started shooting me! It's excellent, really fun, really well thought out. I especially like the rivet gun - fire exploding bullets that take a few seconds to heat up after impact!
Can't stand this game. Its' very existance has made me die a little inside.
I shall get this in the summer when games are fewer.
I've read decent reviews of it but I can't say I'm fortunate enough to have sampled its delights yet.
