It's really not that close to being like The Last Stand. It's harder for one, and much more realistic. (Dealing with accuracy & reloading.) Also, it has stats. You can upgrade your skills, along with the rest of the team. Similar concept, maybe, but it's not the same game by all means.
You know, this game is nearly perfect. The plot doesn't ever continue. Sonny never hears the tape, it becomes all about the battling. Not that I care, but I wanted more story!
It's a fine plot, interesting ideas, but all I'm doing is just swinging randomly at everyone. I can swing ten times at a guy, and all he'll do is block, and then he swings once and I die. What's with this? 3/5. Hit ratio is terrible.
