Summary: Zombies + Comedy + Death Metal = Infected!

Yep, it's the first installment of "blowed up zombies" for the PSP. And this one is straight up in your face in many ways. The opening video sequence will probably let you in on the remaining content for this game. Once you see it, you will know if you bought the right game or not.

Graphics - 85

Pretty good. Nothing to cry about really. For some reason I always imagined a bit more animation and detail in the zombie chunks as they compared to what's actually there. It does look good, though, and the levels look nice. They load quickly too. Even when playing online.

Audio - 85

First off, if you can't stand death metal, go buy another title people. There is some screaming loud and in your face music embedded in this title. There is the ability to choose whether its played and even where (menus or in-game or both). So, you have that going for you, which is nice.

Sound effects are great. I love the splatter sounds especially. I do feel like there's too much going on sound wise sometimes though.

Controls - 90

Pretty easy to pick up. Awkward at times when picking it up to play for the first time. Sufficient and I'll leave it at that.

Online Multiplayer - 75

Hey Majesco! How on earth do you plan to have good multiplayer with online one-on-one deathmatches while in infrastructure mode. I sincerely hope that this will change with an add on or patch. While its fun and runs smoothly, its silly not to have more players than two while playing online.

Also, ditch the auto connect to another player thing. Yep, as soon as you connect, the system finds another player and connects you automatically to duel it out. Again, its fun, but today's online consumers want more options. Majesco, just take a look at SOCOM if you want to see how its done. I haven't had the chance to play Ad-Hoc (and probably never will), but it looks better in that there can be up to 8 players simultaneously.

I had a feeling that 1 on 1 infrastructure might not be as fun as 8 or more players, but it's nice that the game has an online mode at all. Too many good titles for PSP could be greatly enhanced with somekind of Infrastructire mode play.

Aside from that, the game looks like a ton of fun.

You want a large multiplayer game, go with SOCOM.

CBR, captain has a ton of crap to do other than sit around and wait for people to post reviews of games. Just be patient.. it tooks a week and a half for one of my reviews to get posted.

just checked, and it IS posted.. it seems tha you have a knack for writing in depth reviews..considering
I don't know what is all the fuss about this game, for me it's just a shooter whit a lot of blood. What's interesting in that? Nothing. Low, just low...

is all you wrote.

My name is CBR and I'm crying because no'one posted my review of SOCOM. Here is is below...

"I liked it."

Get real man. Don't even submit a review unless you really play the game first and then critique it second. Knuckle.

Incredible game. Funny too!!!!! Bought it on wednesday and cannot stop playing it. Waiting for my friend to buy it too so I can play against him and kick his ass. If you like shooters, it is the game for you.

Infected is an awesome, fast paced game. THe music in it is also what makes it. If you are a Roadrunner Records fan, this game is what youve been waiting for. I have Socom, and I have Infected. I still would rather play Infected, even though Socom is an amazing game. PEace

For a shallow game. this rules. My first night I was infected by some dude named Mike in Jersey. He iced my milky can. And I have to say ... this game is so much fun. It kind of reminds me of what a handheld Serious Sam should be.
