Eww. Generic Zombie Film: The Sequel doesn't sound that great.
You obviously never played The Last of Us
Obviously I have. It's gameplay is nothing special and it's story is just a generic mish mash of every zombie film you've ever seen before.
A story doesn't have to be new and unique to be good. The whole "zombie" story is a backdrop anyway. The characters are the focus of the game.
The gameplay isn't anything special, but it still plays well and it's still fun. It's even better on higher difficulties.
