This game is so much better than the first one that came out two years ago. The storyline is better in every way possible. It has emotion, action, violence, chainsaws, and funny dialogue from the Cole Train. I'd have to say the Horde mode is my favorite feature in the game. It's loads of fun with you and your friends are taking out numerous amounts of Locust. I definitely think this game is worth spending $60-$70 and I highly recommend getting the Limited Edition!
