Call of Duty: Black Ops, already having made countless millions (ok, I’m sure they actually counted them) off of slaughtering virtual Zombies, is about to release its first expansion pack, and yes, there will be more Anti-Zom carnage to foist off upon the general public: Treyarch and Activision have today revealed details around the first [...]

The superlative Michelle Hartz has suggested that the ZRC might want to set up a chapter within popular gaming platform World of Warcraft, given that one of the main player factions is already Undead. Intriguing idea, though my worry is that it would be so time-consuming that our real-world advocacy would necessarily suffer, unless I [...]

As a handy short example of how lately the mainstream media is desperate to shoehorn Anti-Zombiism into every story they possibly can, look no further than this: It’s a dilemma of the computer age: you’re on a zombie killing spree in the virtual world while in the real one your beer mug has run dry? [...]

This just seems superfluously insulting to me: Zombie Duck Hunt, developed by 2010 W3 Innovations, LLC, is now available from the App Store and has made Apple’s Top 300 iPad/iPod applications list. The app was last released on May 05, 2010 and sells for Free. The application developer’s description of the application is, “Zombie Duck [...]

Having assaulted your eyes, ears, and sanity in 3D with the odious and incomprehensibly stupid Resident Evil: Afterlife, Capcom is forging ahead with pushing their flagship Anti-Zombie game franchise into 3D on the new handheld, the 3DS: The horror is back in Resident Evil! That’s our impression after a going few sessions with 3DS’s Resident [...]

Just a quick post to outline a couple of new entries in the flood of Zombie themed games coming out for the iPhone. First, a game that tries to tie the two greatest and most exaggerated fears of modern America together: Zombies and terrorism. Creatively enough, it’s called Terrorist Zombies: Legions of zombies are taking [...]

The ZRC learned about ‘Zombie Bites’ via Google and went to see if it was as unfortunately negative for the Zombie Rights movement as the title hinted it probably was. First, the basic description: You’ve been turned into a zombie! In order to survive you need to feed on human beings. Press the spacebar to [...]

The ZRC attended a New Year’s Eve party last week and surprisingly enough, even on our night off, The Cause found us and demanded attention, as the party-goers had Call of Duty: Black Ops playing on a tv downstairs. Eventually the siren song of Zombie Rights demanded that I try it out. The results were [...]

Apparently Microsoft doesn’t feel they’ve done their part to foment prejudice against the Differently Animated yet, so they’re putting Anti-Zombie titles on sale: If that doesn’t quite sate your gaming appetite, Live is also throwing a random “Back from the Dead” promotion by cutting the price of Zombie Apocalypse and The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai to [...]

I don’t know why the gore-mongers at Valve can’t just leave bad-enough alone with their fantastically successful and top-selling Anti-Zombie game series Left 4 Dead. Cleverly and deviously, they keep interest in their flagship hyper-violent co-operative experiment in Living Supremacy alive by providing updates and new gameplay modes to add to the circus of online [...]
