I've played Resi on 3DS and the first 2 minutes of Zombi U, plus the Zombi U Demo (not a great basis for a review, but I don't want to misrepresent my qualifications)
Resi is tense but much more gung-ho. Raid mode is awesome, but barring one bit where you're disarmed it is NOT a survival horror, it's a 3rd person exploration game combined with an assault rifle jRPG (well, I felt like I was levelling my gun up, don't know about you). If the WiiU game is half the game the 3DS game was, then it's half of an excellent game. Mayday! Maaaaaydaaaaay! Raid Mode gives it massive replayability, letting you replay different missions co-operatively with a levelling structure attached, street pass integration so you can find your undead friends and send them on their way, and plenty of loot to gather.
ZombiU in so far as I played it is a different kettle of fish. The opening pre-game sequence, the playable intro, scared me more than the entire of RE:R, which only ever puts you on edge because you're thinking "Do I have the ammo to shoot my way out of this?". It felt much more survival-focussed. Observe but don't get seen. Get seen but don't engage. Engage but be ready to run at a moment's notice. It felt like being in a 70's zombie film. Alas, it doesn't support Off-TV play so I won't get much of a chance to really play it.
You can get the pair of them for the same price as Sonic, by the way

I am sorry but I cannot for the life of me understand gamespot review , I am watching the clips and all i am seeing is a guy clearly not knowing how to move right or left when needing to move a direction, jumping too early and not being able to keep his finger off the run button.
Sonic lost world might be a mediocre game still but my god get someone to know how to play a game like a five year old child
