Remember a certain game several years ago that possibly bring zombies to the hand of casual gamers?
Yeah, it's 'Plant vs Zombie'!
Now in E3, they showcased a brand new Plant vs Zombie game subtitled "Garden Warfare" as a parody to "Modern Warfare" series. The title is true, however, since this game doesn't play like the original 'Plant vs Zombie.' No sir, it will not be a Tower Defense. Ah, sure, it still have a 'little' trace of tower defense, but that's it. The main game play will be like "Modern Warfare" though looks to me more like "Team Fortress 2" though (I haven't played TF2 btw).

Is this... Is this 3D??!! |
Yeah, it's nothing like the original. But I have to tell you, it's damn interesting! We play as the plants, now have the ability to walk around, to protect the house from zombies. But now, we control individual plant and play with friends to work together against the horde of undead army. We can use special weapons, which seems like other plants that not suited as player avatar, selected from the bottom right of the screen. If player press LB at the situation like above, the plant will throw a 'Chilli Bomb' which will roll for a while, and.......

KABOOM! |
There will be several class of plants that can be played by player. How the system to choose which plant to play or whether there are other plants aside from the demo is still unknown. What we know currently is that we have 4 type of plants; Peashooter is the long range shooter, Chomper is melee attacker and can 'eat' zombie (literally), Sunflower is the healer of the team, and Cactus will be the sniper.

The zombie will still come in waves like the original. But here the catch. When the final wave is over, there will be boss zombie! Now, now, don't be afraid. This will be nothing like Titan or Nemesis. No, not kind of zombie, sir! These will be some cute zombie. But be aware, however cute these zombie are, they still able to stomp your plants back into the ground.

That looks like a big zombie... |
All in all, this will be a different game altogether from the original, but however I see it, it is still an interesting game. I like how the developer able to bring what makes this game cute into 3D graphic. Let's hope this will not a Next Gen Console exclusive. This kind of game will be received wildly by PC gamers, am I right? At least we at my office really want this game at our PC to play after work hour.
And here's the gameplay demo!
Don't forget to check my other post about E3 here!

AAAAAANNNNNNNNNDDDDDD CUT!!!!!!
I hope they released this for mobile too, at least on tablet devices.. (can't imagine if one must play this in a 4" smartphone). Otherwise we would feel discriminated cuz of only given the casual PVZ2~
ReplyDeleteI don't know dude.
DeleteThe graphic looks like too much. Maybe they will have like lower graphic or something.
But really? You want to play this kind of game with touch screen??
