As I wait for the dropship to pick me up, I reflect on just how badly this run had gone.
It started — as all deployments do — with my character, a freshly-ressurrected cyberzombie clad in an armored exoskeleton, jumping out of a helicopter into a warzone..
HIGH The adrenaline during big campaign setpieces.
LOW A lackluster PVP mode.
WTF Just killed me?
HIGH A final boss worth waiting the whole game for.
LOW Three of the Dragon levels are ridiculously difficult.
WTF “Earth Defense Force 7 Begins”
HIGH It’s a haunting, lonely place.
LOW We’re still revisiting old locales?
WTF I turned to stone.

There’s a new Sniper Elite game coming soon.
On one level this is super-exciting because as a longtime fan of the series I’ve reviewed all of them for Gamecritics, and have watched as the franchise has gradually improved and been perfected over the years by developers with a passion for delivering the most intense stealth and sniping experience possible.

World War Z, the dynamic and extremely replayable co-op zombie shooter, is getting a huge content upgrade this month in the form of the Aftermath update. I was lucky enough to get a chance to play it, and I’ve come away impressed with the changes the developers have made to their already-compelling third person shooter.

HIGH Zipping through a high-tech base as everything explodes around me.
LOW A boss that’s out of bounds and impossible to shoot.
WTF Your enemy in this mission: Meteorites!
