Storyline

Trivia
In the original storyline there was a side element in which Francis and Zoey develop a relationship with one another. However, test audiences found their romance to be "distracting" from the main storyline and so it was ultimately cut from the final version.

Goofs
Although throughout the 'No Mercy' campaign you are heading for 'Mercy hospital' and can see it in many areas of the game due to the huge logo at the top of the building, when you finally reach the roof top, the 'Mercy Hospital' logo is missing during the final battle and helicopter escape.

Quotes
Francis: Hey, watch out for that steam pipe.
Zoey: Man, I love Steam.
Francis: Yeah, Steam's alright, I guess. I just hate the pipes.

Crazy credits
At the end of each campaign you get movie style credits which begin with "(number) infected were harmed in the making of this game". Unless one of the characters dies during the finale in which case "In memory of (name(s))" appears instead.

Alternate versions
Original German version was heavily censored for violence to secure a "Not under 18" rating from the USK.

10/10

Thats a lot of zombieZ

The story follows four pill addicts hallucinating the zombie apocalypse as they stumble around shooting people.

I joined a match. I got pounced by a hunter. My team ran away. Never has a game been more appropriately named. 10/10 would die alone again.

Pros: Single & Online Co-op, Funny, Excellent graphics, Nice darky atmosphere, Challenging, Achievements, Masterpiece

Cons: Lots of vomits in yo face.

Addictive single player, co-op, and multiplayer action gameplay from the makers of Counter-Strike and Half-Life

Versus Mode lets you compete four-on-four with friends, playing as a human trying to get rescued, or as a zombie boss monster that will stop at nothing to destroy them.

See how long you and your friends can hold out against the infected horde in the new Survival Mode

An advanced AI director dynamically creates intense and unique experiences every time the game is played 20 maps, 10 weapons and unlimited possibilities in four sprawling "movies"

Matchmaking, stats, rankings, and awards system drive collaborative play

Designer's Commentary allows gamers to go "behind the scenes" of the game.
