Gameplay aside, I just can't stop thinking about the audio of this game. The sharp drums mixed with the low guttural bass that permeates all of the horde themes. The jingles that play when the special infected spawn. The voice interactions of the 4 distinct but very entertaining protagonists.

Did you know in the first level before they learn each other's names, they call each other silly nicknames. For example: if you ping Coach as Nick, he calls him "Big Man", like that attention to detail is nuts!

This game is a treat to listen to and I'm convinced that I could play this game blindfolded and probably have a good time.

As for the gameplay, definitely the best out of any zombie game I've played which is surprisingly, a very low bar. It's grounded, punchy but fun. And then couple that with some of the nicest looking Source engine environments I've ever seen.

Yeah it's good.
