Critics vs. Customers! ZombiU reviews, or zombie reviewers?

"Do you like zombies? Do you not like zombies? Do you feel like a zombie when you wake up, and generally throughout the day?

ZombiU released for (and with) the Wii U on November 18, 2012, basically as a brand new IP. The game was developed and published by Ubisoft, and received an ESRB rating of "MATURE" with "Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Strong Language" listed as content for gamers and parents to be aware of. It released with a MSRP of $59.99 in the United States, and can be purchased either via a physical retail copy from stores, or a digital "copy" through the Wii U's eShop.

With a full month of "professional" critic reviews and customer reviews for ZombiU to look at now, and having completed the game myself, is ZombiU a Wii U title you should play (if, you are of age)? Have Wii U owners agreed with the "professional" reviewers on ZombiU? Brew yourself some coffee, and let's take a look!", writes CoffeeWithGames.

I have the game and it is awesome!

I would like to play it, but I need to get a Wii U first. My plan is to get a Wii U after the price drops. I rarely get a new console until it's been out for a few years.

Right the logic with using amazon (with its 36 reviews and of those 36) and the eshop (like come on really that is like going on PSN or live and looking up the big exclusive for a score. It is going to be very biased) is flawed. But nevermind.

This big thing is to ignore the professional scores and READ the review. A lot of reviews say the exact reason they didn't love the game (note i didn't say dislike). Take that when you decide to purchase it. Scores are hard to do and really shouldn't be done because people often do not read the reviews anymore. I have seen a lot of reveiws for this game and their is a general consensus that the game was rushed and is rough around the edges with it texture issue, load times and reuse of animations (which is something we do not see anymore). You need to READ several reviews to get the jist of what a game might be like. It is hard for several sites to be wrong about the same issues

Game is awesome! True survival horror is back. There is no middle ground with this game. You are either going to love it or hate it. That's why you see 3/10 and 9/10 from different reviewers. I'm loving it!

The title says the criteria was explicitly written to mention Eternal Darkness. I am happy to see House of the Dead: OVERKILL on here. With the rise of Grindhouse themes in the 2010s, (ie WET), this was one that was both entertaining and camp funny.

Would be nice to see a new Zombie game set in the UK again, some of the landmarks, old architecture and the like really fits in well with the genre.
