A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

To people who have played the game, did you like it? Was it worth the money/time? Hows the experience if you don't play co-op online? Does the game have split-screen co-op?

If you could write your opinions/short review about it, I'd appreciate it.

If you can get it for 20 dollars or less, go for it. It's pretty damn boring single-player, though, IMO. Definitely best with a friend or two. I don't think there's split-screen, but I could be wrong.

Great fun if you have friends to play it with. There's no splitscreen.

I enjoyed playing it by myself, but it's better with friends. As for split-screen, I don't believe that it has that feature.

When the zombies arrive-i'll be there to pick up the pieces.

It was fantastic on my first play through, the environments were all different, and the types of weapons you could create were amazing.

My only, and i mean only, complaints about the game was the unforgivable AI, which were either super OP (Ryder White DCL) or the fact that a couple pof hits would kill you outright, and then my other complaint is that there is no replayability what so ever-would be perfect if they adopted a borderlands/gearbox meathod for second playthroughs

I did only play it properly sigle player though, coop may be different entirely.

These two sentences make me confused. Great co-op game, and then no split-screen. :( That's a shame. Did the devs take the RE:Raccoon City devs idea of gamers not having friends in real life anymore? Oh well.

Also, thanks for the honest opinions, I really appreciate it.

"What are we holding on to, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for."

I thought it had some good ideas buried under awful, repetitive, and boring gameplay. It's been patched a bit now, so it's not so glitchy. In fairness, I'm not a big fan of zombies and I don't actually own the game, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
