Dead Nation

So for Sony's free game giveaway after their PSN down-age I chose "Dead Nation" as one of my games. The game is developed by Sony Europe, by Finnish studio "Housemarque" which has done a really excellent job of bringing the zombie genre to life. In some ways it reminds me of "Super Smash TV" and one of the more recent games on Steam "Alien Swarm" since it is a top down shooter. You get to kill mass loads of zombies and buy bigger and more deadlier weapons as the game progresses. The story line doesn't tend to drag on and has little comic book cut scenes similar to Infamous between each level you pass that tell the story. I would give the game a 4.5/5 mainly cause it does an excellent job of keeping the gamer satisfied for the first 3/4's of the game, then it becomes a tad repetitive when you stop earning new guns to test on the zombie populations. Overall an excellent game and I am glad I chose it as one of my 2 free games from Sony.
