6.5Zombie Tycoon 2 – You’ll Wish Someone Ate Your Brains

Zombie Tycoon 2 seemed to be a promising idea when I saw the first press releases coming from Frima Studios. Having never played the original I decided to go in with an open mind and not take the original into account and just take this title for what it is. Who wouldn’t want to play a real-time strategy game featuring zombie classes and absurd monstrosities? Well, it didn’t take long for me to realize that person was undoubtedly me. The zombies are...

7.5Dead Island Riptide Review: A Zom-B-Game At Its Finest

It is impossible to explain what Dead Island: Riptide is, without first explaining what the original Dead Island was, and how Riptide has improved upon it. Dead Island was a game with quite a reputation. The original trailer released had gamers pumped for something the Dead Island simply was not. The game was filled with glitches, fetch quests, and a story that made Land of the Dead feel like the next great American novel What Dead Island did have going for it was combat and...

Dead Island Riptide They Thought Wrong Trailer

The original Dead Island may me best known for its tear-jerking trailer, and subsequent disappointment upon not living up to that trailer. Well hopefully, Deep Silver did not make the same mistake twice, because the most recent trailer is kick ass. I got a look at Dead Island Riptide last PAX Prime but did not see much beyond gameplay. It looked fine, with a couple cool additions, but nothing that would really change my opinion of the series. But judging from this new...

Hands on Preview : Contagion

I think we can all get in agreement that we love zombies, right? Zombies are rad, but that doesn’t mean everything with zombies in it is great. There’s been bad games and some pretty terrible movies. Story lines are regurgitated and gameplay mechanics reused over and over. Contagion is a FPS set in a zombie apocalypse, but don’t blow it off yet. Contagion is being developed by Monochrome Games who’s founder created Half-Life 2’s Zombie Panic:...

F’in Saved 15- Zalloween

So after a month hiatus F’in saved is “back.” By that I mean it will be coming as much as I can make it. As you all probably know most of the team is obsessed with zombies. We often discuss how we would survive, even when we are not recording podcasts. So this scene is… not beyond the realm of possibilities. The hardest thing about this one paneled comic was not making the new scene or adapting the character sprites but rather Taryn’s one liner...

Walking Dead Episode 4 Teaser Trailer

If you told me last year that a zombie adventure game would be in top ranking for my Game of the Year I would have laughed in your face. And now here we are, with only two episodes left and I could not be more excited. Last episode broke me; here’s hoping that this episode can live up to that high.
