GR caught up with Michel Ancel and other key developers at E3 and found out more about what they hope to achieve with BG&E2.

Game Tangents | It's a light news week this week, but we did get more controversy stirred up by the feminist activists over Ubisoft's E3 demo of Rainbow Six: Siege. The G-Tan team discusses the political implications. Also, it's Wii U month, so listen to get our early impressions about Nintendo's 8th generation video game hardware which we recently acquired.
The game definitely needed more melee weapons... I'm a Brit and that game still increased my lifetime Cricket exposure by 150%
I'd be stunned if there wasn't a sequel in the pipeline, probably with all the stuff they had to ditch to get the first game ready in time for launch. Fingers crossed we get a n undead Bono in "ZombiU2" ;)
I used the cricket bat a lot lol, I do wished they had a sword or a crowbar something different. The crossbow rules the game though
I would've liked a bit more combat variety. Not only in the form of more hitting stuff besides the cricket bat, but also the way melee was handled. Zombi U had only this ONE animation for the cricket bat, making it incredibly repetitive.
If they make a sequel, I hope they improve this by letting us control our swings in more ways than just up to down - left to right, right to left, and diagonal angles, etc, on top of more melee weapons.
And I HOPE they make a sequel. Despite its faults, Zombi U was still an incredibly fresh game, and very fun in a very tense way. Loved it.
