I can understand how the general public might assume that the ZRC would be in favor of censorship of the violent and depraved Anti-Zombie media, but I can assure you that is not the case. We believe, here at the ZRC, in the marketplace of ideas, and that the best way to counter Anti-Zombie, even [...]

Really? The Differently Animated community doesn’t have enough trouble without two jokers from Bloody-Disgusting.com hosting a little online cage match to determine the best stereotype of Zombies? Welcome one and all to a brand new series here on Dead Pixels, home of all things geeky and videogame-y. TJ and I have been slaving over our [...]

I actually signed up for this game and started playing it some time ago, but in a creepy way befitting its role as a ‘social game’/timesuck, kept delaying the actual review until I had seen just a bit more of the content, then a bit more, etc… So what is ‘Zombie Lane’? Well, it’s like [...]

Anti-Zombie… Bigots.. in.. Spaaaaaaaaaaaace! More or less: Manned space exploration might be more dead then you thought. “Call of Duty: Black Ops” is getting a zombie-only update named “Rezurrection.” The undead expansion will include a new moon level, enhanced soundtrack, new zombie moon theme and four re-mastered zombie levels from the Call of Duty franchise.

A 360 exclusive where you can use the Kinect as your [...]

I guess, no joke, that the gaming industry won’t be content until every genre of game has had Anti-Zombiism splashed in to increase sales: Zombie Bowl-o-Rama is a casual, arcade game on the WildTangent games service. In Zombie Bowl-o-Rama, you’ll strike away the attacking zombies on the bowling lanes. Play Zombie Bowl-o-Rama on the WildTangent [...]

I mean, geez: For many, playing Doublesix’s arena shooter Burn Zombie Burn was as satisfying as watching your old high school go up in flames (screw that place). And if you loved the game like so many others, then hot dog do we have good news for you: Game Set Watch has announced that Doublesix [...]

We’ve joked about how Capcom is determined to squeeze every last possible dollar out of their many Anti-Zombie games and franchises before here at the ZRC, but there’s more than a bit of seriousness behind the jest. The fact is, some Resident Evil games have seen a half-dozen releases to date – and the trend [...]

I’ve thought that Anti-Zombie media was getting more militaristic for some time, whether it’s the transition from early Survival Horror games like Resident Evil to more martial and ammunition-laden titles like Left 4 Dead and the Call of Duty Zombie levels. Likewise, Army Times recently disgraced itself peddling violent Anti-Zombie imagery to the American military [...]

The ZRC has good friends in Australia, and we want them to know we’re not trying to pick on their government specifically. However, the fact remains that the politics surrounding the Differently Animated in Australia are, remarkably, in many ways even *less* congenial than in the United States or Europe. We’ve previously reported on the [...]
