The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct [Bonus: Herd Mode Showcase] [No Commentary] (PC 2013)

Herd mode, the second part of the DLC pack, is the lesser version of Call of Duty's Zombies mode. Area's of the map unlock after surviving for a certain number a rounds, ending at 10, and you have to find weapons across the map while spawning in with a random assortment of weapons: although all are obtainable on the map somewhere. You either keep going until you get bored, the game crashes, or you die. In this case, I stopped after unlocking and seeing everything you'll see. You'll eventually run out of ammo on the later rounds and unless you can time your melee swings well, you'll either be stuck in a very long grapple chain that cheeses the entire wave, or use all your healing and die. For $5, it's passable for what it and can offer. (For whatever reason, the DLC weapons don't show up here, even though it wouldn't change much). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Taken from the Wiki: The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct is a first-person shooter video game based on AMC's The Walking Dead. The game was developed by Terminal Reality and published by Activision. It has been released on March 19, 2013 in North America, March 21, 2013 in Australia, March 27, 2013 in New Zealand, and March 22, 2013 in Europe. The game acts as a prequel to the TV series revolving around Daryl Dixon and his brother Merle on a haunting, unforgiving quest to make their way to the supposed safety of Atlanta. Players will control Daryl as they attempt to avoid detection from zombies that hunt using sight, sound, and smell and will choose between fighting them or using stealth to avoid detection. According to Activision, "No place is truly safe for Daryl as he makes his way through the Georgia countryside in this new, post-apocalyptic world." Supplies will be scarce and players will need to carefully manage rations, ammunition and supplies as they make their way through the game. Daryl will encounter a slew of other characters along the way that can help or hurt him. Whether or not these characters accompany Daryl is completely up to the player and represents just some of the major decisions that will constantly be made while fighting to survive.
