It just gets better and better.

the zombie map was released a few hours ago. I started playing it and was immediately hooked. From the very moment it starts, it puts you on edge. Not knowing what's going to happen. Even after playing it for a while, you get a sense of feeling lost and feeling scared about what's going to happen. It is a great zombie game and unlike the other zombie maps you may have played, this one doesn't really allow you to stand around for very long.

This zombie map will keep you on your toes. It has the feel of a real horror movie, whilst still keeping the call of duty zombie feel and game play. No wonder they used George A. Romero in this instalment.

This is definitely a must get. 10/10.
