A ton of fun to play! It is pretty hard, but by far the best map to date. The guns are great, perks, characters, and map as well. It is a very hard map due to the fact that it is hard to run trains. The Easter egg is pretty sweet though! It also is pretty scary and has different music for the beginning of a new round. The map is also the biggest but is not much larger than die rise. There are also a ton of Easter eggs and the zombies have a lot of spawn points making it even harder. The best gun by far is the blunder gat. It also can be pack a punched and turned to a wonder weapon. This gun is a one shot kill until round 30. Also hello retriever is pretty cool! So is this as good as I thought it would be? Yes and then some. Everything about this map is awesome. Can't wait to play again!

Mobsters and Zombies! What Else Do You Need...
mrxelement7 June 2013
Finally, we have a bad-ass crew instead of the crew from Tranzit since they are uninteresting characters not knowing why they were created in the first place. Anyways, this zombie map is one of the best I've ever played! With the hellish demolished look to it sure packs it into one hell of a nightmare. Since its one big hell of a map their so many places where you can train zombies to get those big points!!
Also the riot shield makes a comeback introducing a new perk called "Electric Cherry" causing the zombies to get shock every-time you reload. Very very useful!! Even the new wonder-weapon packs one hell of a punch. The tomahawk is another weapon where you can throw like a boomerang sending every zombie to explode. This map is well worth the buy if you're a zombie fan and want to experience the Alcatraz nightmare.

Escaping Alcatraz is more fun than it sounds

Warning: Spoilers
Treyarch's second Black Ops II Zombies map, Mob of the Dead, includes a new set of playable characters, a new special zombie, and a new setting (obviously), among other things. Our "heroes" are four Alcatraz Prisoners trying to escape their very Alcatraz-y purgatory whilst hordes of undead, including the warden (Brutus), assault them.
Mob of the Dead, compared to the other Zombies maps, is pretty hard. There are only around three good training spots, and even that's giving them some credit. These are the roof, the bridge, and the cafeteria. There are lots of tight corners and tight areas, in general, for zombies to surprise you from and trap you up, downing you.
Story Quest ending time! After doing all this meningeal bullshit*t, our mobsters end up flying to the bridge in Afterlife, then revive their body from off the electric chairs. Afterward, Sal, Finn, and Billy turn on Weasel and attempt to kill him again. How this ends is determined by the players. If the group of 3 are killed, then "the cycle is broken", and Weasel leaves his purgatory as the last man standing. If Weasel dies, the "the cycle continues" and the 4 will continue to repeat the events of Mob of the Dead either for all eternity or until the cycle is broken by Weasel killing Sal, Billy, and Finn on the bridge, as discussed earlier.
