Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville Standard Edition - XBOX One [Digital]

I'm a big fan of PvZ GW1 and GW2 and have mastered both those games to Elite Level/Max rank. I was excited when word came out that there was a new installment for this franchise. I was one of the selected few that "Alpha Picnic" this game before launch. Here's my take...1) it is completely different from GW1 and GW2. The character movement is different and it takes a while to get used to 2) The gameplay is very chaotic and fast paced 3) the map seems to be all over the place 4) there is considerable lag. This tells me that this game was rushed to be released and they didnt have the hardware to backup online players. EA is to blame for this and network/hardware optimization is needed 5) there is considerable balancing required as there are over powered characters that dominates the game 6) this is another one of those "Grind" games to reach high level and maximize characters strengths As of right now, I will rate this game below average as I'm still adjusting to the game play and to level my high expectation of this new game. In addition to a very buggy game that still needs a lot of work and updating, again, going back to rushing the release of this game. Perhaps, I will come back later and update this review but as of right now, I really cant recommend this esp if you are expecting the same game play from GW1 and GW2.

The newest entry in the Plants vs. Zombies franchise is pretty good. My son and I have some great dad & son time with the Plants vs. Zombies games in both pvp and co-op so it was worht it for that alone. The maps are more complex and detailed than Garden Warfare 2 and there are new characters as well. I agree with other reviewers that this could have been a better game in the franchise, but overall it is still fun and enjoyable to play. I got it when it was on sale/deal of the day for $15 and it is well worth it when you can get it in the $20 price range.

The case was brand new, and in tip top condition. The game itself is so awesome! They kept certain things original, but added some awesome characters and maps as well! RECOMMEND!

This is a really fun game, more challenging than it looks! At times the game-play can get pretty hectic. The visuals are generally good but there are hiccups from time to time and the screen goes blank. It always comes back. So far I haven't been "killed" when the screen is frozen, thankfully. Overall a good game but could definitely use an update to fix the bugs.

Great game and visuals especially for the little ones!
