This isn’t about how terrible of a game this is, it’s great and normally would be a 5 star review. However, this game is broken and how or why Rockstar hasn’t bothered to patch it or fix it is baffling to me. When you are playing Undead Nightmare, shortly after playing the NPCs heads will disappear, making shooting zombies in the head a little harder but not terrible. However, once they lose their heads the game can’t differentiate human and zombie. So let’s say your trying to save a town, the survivors you hand bullets to have heads but the ones you don’t come into contact with don’t. So once you start killing zombies, it will say clear out the undead... and it includes the humans that are shooting as well. They are marked, and the game won’t continue unless they are dead as well. Killing them is a little harder because they have guns as well, and will take off running in different directions when you attack them. If you go to far to kill them, the town will reset and you have to start all over. That’s not as bad as trying to clear a graveyard, because if they don’t have heads the game won’t register how many you’ve killed and the undead will continue to keep crawling out of the graves. The only way to actually beat these missions is to start it, talk to one of the survivors/burn the first grave and then immediately kill yourself. Once you start the mission over again, everyone has their heads and it’s business as usual. This will last about a good... 20 minutes at best before everyone loses their heads. However, what truly sucks is when your traveling and you noticed the zombies don’t have their heads. You can’t tame a mythical creature. So say you’re traveling and you see one of the 4 horses of the apocalypse. You jump on it, and it will immediately buck you off and take off. You can chase it down, jump on it numerous times and it will immediately buck you off. Also, if you do have one of the 4 horses of the apocalypse and everyone loses their heads. The horse will no longer have infinite stamina, you’ll now have to ride it like a regular horse. I currently have the fire horse, which I know when everyone lost their heads because his flames will disappear, feet are see through and of course the blue speed meter will kick in. It’s unfortunate that such a great game, is so broken. I don’t understand why it would get a rerelease without any patches.

I love the deals you can find at Best Buy! This game looks and plays like it was just released in the past year. Had it on the 360, bought this for xbox one and to gear up for Red Dead 2 this fall. Must have game if you love a great story, vast & detailed open world, excellent shooter & rpg elements. Also, great game mechanics & a TON of content. Definitely a 10/10. Another smash hit from Rockstar
