The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct



Hey guys, Welcome back to The Rating of The Games, and today we are taking a Look at The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct. So what is this game? Well I will tell you, This game is published by Activition, It was published in 6 months, I has horrible graphics for this time, and the voice acting is terrible, laughable almost. So yeah this "stealth survival" game is doing great so far, isn't it?
This game has been universally said to be one of the worst games ever. Which is funny because after the last Walking Dead game I expect nothing less than a miracle. That game was beautiful and could quite possibly be the best telltale game ever (besides Monkey Island). As that one was based off the comics, this one was based of the show and it's kind of sad to think about how much money this piece of trash made. Of course people just buy it because it says " The Walking Dead" on it and the show is good. That's called ignorance and by people buying this game isn't just saying "Hey Activision keep making more great games like this." We blame companies for making bad games while we buy them making game makers think "Hey lets make more!"

Anyway Back on track you know you have a great zombie game when killing zombies is boring and feels uneventful. The combat is "sneaking" around and stealth assassinating zombies, kind of like dishonored but not fun. But if a zombie sees you you have to hit them in the head about 5 times until they die, but its not like cool you just hit their head while they do nothing to attack you. YAWN. It's really sad, this game has some interesting concepts and ideas, that if pulled off well could be a decent game. The PC port just like every other Activision game is almost unplayable, this game has terrible mouse acceleration which is in some pc games for absolutely no reason, maybe to show stress....... who knows? Mouse acceleration is when in random places the mouse sensitivity either jumps up and slows down, crappy pc ports are made often nowadays sadly because of how many of us "gamers" are purely console.
Right now I'm going to check how much this game is on amazon, one sec............... 50 bucks. So after my upbeat review i think we know what to get your friend for half christmas.
All and all my final review is a very nice 3/10. Hey at least it has a decent inventory system.
