We’ve covered the promotion of the odious and seemingly-Living Supremacist game ‘Dead Island’ extensively here on the ZRC blog, but perhaps I should mention something about its recent high profile release, and why I have no intention of buying it for review anytime soon: They released an incomplete and unfinished game, one that is ludicrously [...]

Exercise is important, and I know I personally am trying to get more. This, however, is no way to induce people to get fit: Indie developer Six to Start and Naomi Alderman are attempting to kick start their new app, aptly titled ZOMBIES, RUN! On the surface, the fitness app can be used to record [...]

Well, I guess Sony knows which side their Zombie-hating bread is buttered on, and hopes to buy off their still-seething customer base with some very cheap Anti-Zombie gameplay: In addition, today’s update grants free access to five games: Plants vs. Zombies, Astro Tripper, Altered Beast, Bashi Blocks (Minis), and Jet Moto (PS1). Plus subscribers will [...]

Seriously? Who out there hates the human race this much? Uwe Boll continues to bring little known video games to the screen. This time he’s producing a movie version of Zombie Massacre video game. The film will be directed by Marco Ristori and Luca Boni who made the recent low-budget zombie flick, Eaters, for Boll. [...]

(our booth over the weekend, exhibiting a slideshow of past activism) Sorry about getting this post up so late; we were beat and unpacking and all that today. Somehow despite being in town the convention was pretty exhausting! We had three long but festive days of outreach. The ZRC spent Saturday and Sunday all day [...]

This particular charitable Zombie Walk I’m not sure the ZRC could have gotten *entirely* behind since it doubled as a game launch event for notable Evil Anti-Zombie game ‘Dead Island’: Zombies aren’t usually known for being the most charitable or fun loving monsters, but come this Labor Day, a group of zombies will be just [...]

We’ve talked about ‘Project Zomboid’ before here on the ZRC blog, but now a review of the tech demo was brought to our attention and it highlights precisely the sort of Anti-Zombie gameplay we feared: The world as we know it has come to an end. Zombies roam the land as humans struggle to survive, [...]

More details are emerging on the bizarre and obviously unhinged new Suda 51 game ‘Lollipop Chainsaw’, with details hearkening back to some unusual ideas of Zombiism, a recent Zombie Friendly anime series, ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ and chainsaw obsessions: Scott Warr, producer on Lollipop Chainsaw at Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, provided a behind-closed-doors sneak peak [...]

One of the big gripes of the Anti-Zombie fanboys who love their ‘Dead Rising 2′ is that, inexplicably for a sandbox game, Capcom never provided them with a true sandbox mode, where they could soak their murderous hands in virtual Zombie blood without a pesky story, or objectives, or any sort of structure forcing them [...]

We told you about this game before on the ZRC blog, but ‘All Zombies Must Die’ is currently being exhibited at PAX and there are new details available: All Zombies Must Die is a twin-stick shooter where you and three friends sit around your living room (no online co-op yet, but it may be added [...]
