We’re Coming to Get You, Clementine!
I know it’s late in the day, but I just got home and found this lovely trailer for the second season of The Walking Dead video game by Telltale Games. You’re all playing, right?
I can’t wait to play a zombie game as a nearly defenseless little girl! The game comes out on Tuesday, though I probably won’t be playing it right away.
State of Decay: Everything you know is wrong
Microsoft Studios released State of Decay last week on Xbox Live Arcade, and I have to say that this may be one of the most impressive, if slightly flawed zombie-based games ever presented. With a sandbox-style atmosphere, accessible vehicles and a massive open world, State of Decay has high replay-value and smart, immersive gameplay. The title is almost hilariously misleading, really. As an apocalyptic zombie-thriller, State of Decay has the shelf-life of a Twinkie.
Some experiences may vary.
To start, the game doesn’t fall into the same category of zombie-shooter as Left 4 Dead, or even Dead Rising. You’re not the greatest zombie-killer in the world, and the undead in State of Decay aren’t simply a line of moving targets that you can mow down with reckless abandon. Throughout State of Decay, the game reinforces again and again that you and your band of fellow survivors are in fact, mortal. Resources are scarce, ammunition is limited, and weapons can break in mid-fight. This isn’t a game about killing zombies: It’s a game about surviving zombies. Read the rest of this entry
The Brad Pitt School of Zombie Survival
Welcome to my World War Z review! I saw the movie on a whim Saturday night and enjoyed it. But I wasn’t planning to see it, so I also wasn’t planning to write a full review like I normally do. That being the case, I’ve decided to do something a little different. Instead of a typically thorough review of the film, I’m instead going to present ‘The Do’s and Don’t’s of World War Z’.
Otherwise known as ‘How to Survive at the Brad Pitt School of Zombie Survival’.
Don’t get bit!
Are zombies creeping all up in your neighborhood? Does a horde of violent, fast-moving undead threaten to bite you out of house and home? Is the entire world completely overrun by nasty ghouls with sharp, pointy teeth? Then you’ve come to the right place! Welcome to the Brad Pitt School of Zombie Survival! Here you will learn all of the necessary Do’s and Don’t’s of how to survive in a worldwide zombie apocalypse.
There will be SPOILERS! And zombies.
The Tap-Dancing Dead
I’m surprised there aren’t more zombie musical parodies, considering how many zombie properties are out there these days.
Though considering how many amateur and bargain basement zombie movies are out there, maybe there is one already. But this one, at least, is kind of catchy by AVbyte! I do hope you enjoy.
And nobody spoil season three of The Walking Dead! I haven’t seen any of the episodes yet! Though I have been playing The Walking Dead video game, which is a lot of fun.
Dogs vs. Zombies!
What better way to start your morning than with a healthy dose of zombie movie parody? This is actually a very well done mini-movie (about 17 minutes) featuring a pack of canines braving the zombie apocalypse. It’s actually kind of adorable…and then sad. If you’re looking for something to watch over breakfast or during your lunch break, this is definitely worth a viewing…if you can stand more zombie stuff.
