If you like The Simpsons and love skateboarding, you'll still hate this awful game... One of the worst games of 2002.

Shockingly inept... It is, quite literally, the poorest excuse for a video game I've ever had the "honor" of completing.

A horrendous combination of bad gameplay, graphics, character design, and a complete lack of charm. This is an affront to gaming.

So atrocious that it's an insult to the art of game design, not to mention the people who mistakenly purchase it.

There's no reason for you to ever play this waste of plastic. Avoid it at all costs.

How a respected strategy developer like Paradox could've produced a game so broken, cryptic, and unfaithful to the franchise is a mystery. And why Hasbro, who owns the Avalon Hill properties, approved it is beyond explanation.

All I can say is that The War Z is a bad game that deserves all the controversy it's drawn, and that you should avoid it like the undead.

In condemning this game, I can't help but feel like an opportunistic hunter pouncing on the most pathetic zebra in the herd. But Rogue Warrior is a hobbled, wheezing creature stumbling around so far away from its peers that not going for the jugular could be seen as an act of cruelty.
