Is the preorder period over yet?
I think you can pre order right up until release date 21st november. I did the conversion today and its about £33 at the moment
Ive been very tempted to buy this but the realease of cod5 soon is making me think twice. Might have to fork out for it though looks like a very good game
Have been playing the demo most the evening (in between gears2 lol).. it is rather good fun
From the short demo the game is awesome, expert mode is a little easy though.
Played the demo a bit last night - it's awesome.
Love just walking along... quiet, quiet, quiet, then BAM there's 30 snarling zombies hurtling towards you, and another 30 behind you

Graphics wise... it's pretty good
I haven't played it enough to give a decent comparison - I'll get back to you later.

The graphics are good.. nothing groundbreaking. its done with a slightly grainy "film" effect but the shadows and lighting really help set the mood..
However the character animations are fantastic and very lifelike... having a hoarde run towards you really is scary.. and if you for example shoot the leg of a zombie running towards you, he will stumble before falling flat on his face
The thing to remember is that this is powered by the source engine, which is possibly the most scaleable graphics engine available so it will run very well on very modest hardware.
It looks and feels great in my opinion, but I do have a soft spot for the source engine.
Also, I wasn't convinced about the gameplay until I played it on expert. So much more fun.
Anyone know when the demo will be available for those who haven't pre-ordered from steam? Want to try it out before ordering
11th i think, and i'm waiting for the demo too. £20 on amazon is tempting though.

Most fun I've had in quite a while - spend a few hours playing it yesterday, but for some reason generally end up playing with french dudes.
I'm impressed with the demo, and the auto shotty gives me a nice warm feeling inside
If you preorder from Amazon with supersaver, will you get it on launch day or be likely to wait?
