Zombie Command

So after all the screaming, running and hiding, you will have to get down to the bare bones of surviving in the post zombie apocalyptic world. And to do that you will need certain items to make it.

We have teamed up with Virgin Trains’ ‘Don’t Go Zombie’ Google Street View game to offer readers the chance to win £100 Amazon voucher. Our very own ZC Barry is featured in the game which you can play by visiting Don’t Go Zombie where you will be able to Zombify yourself and share with friends on Facebook.

To be in with a chance of winning £100 Amazon voucher all you need to do to enter this competition is do at least one of the following (and you can enter once for each method)…

1. Leave a comment below saying what your high score was and whether or not you saved ZC Barry. (1 entry)

2. Like Zombie Command on Facebook and then leave a comment on the Zombie Command Facebook page entry for the Amazon Vouchers saying something along the lines of “I’d go zombie for Zombie Command”. (1 entry)

3. Follow Zombie Command on Twitter and tweet about this competition with the phrase “I’d go zombie for Zombie Command #dontgozombie”. Make sure and use the hashtag. (1 entry)

So you know what you’re looking for here’s a couple of pics of ZC Barry (click to embiggen):

Competition closes 27th of November and the winner will be chosen from all entries. Usual terms and conditions apply.

What happens when you squeeze an innovative (if flawed) Xbox game onto a mobile device, remove everything that made it innovative and have to put up with terrible controls? Dead Rising Mobile of course!

Dead Rising mobile will have no psycho fights, no escort missions, none of the improvements from Dead Rising 2 like combining weapons and from the looks of things no picture taking or story. So, eh, what’s the point?

Well, Capcom have added Twitter and Facebook :|

If you die, you can send a code out to Twitter and Facebook and if your friends find you they can bring you back to life with no penalty. Nothing more fun than waiting half an hour to play a game again.

As you can tell, I think this looks terrible and will be absolutely no fun, however there’s still time for things to change before it’s Q4 release, so I’ll not completely condemn it.

Now if you’ll excuse me I’m going back to play Dead Rising 2.

We’re a bit behind with covering this Star Trek meets zombies book from Quirk Books but needless to say we’ll have a full review of it coming soon.

For those of you who don’t know already

This sci-fi/zombie/comedy/adventure follows a group of rag-tag Trekkies getting together for the fifth annual GulfCon (billed as the “largest Starfleet Convention in the western Gulf Coast region”).

Our heroes are dressed in homemade uniforms and armed with prop phasers-but soon find themselves defending their hotel and convention center against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Suddenly, all of their useless knowledge about particle physics and old Star Trek episodes has genuine real-world applications! And while hotel employees and regular civilians are dying left and right, our Trekkies summon strength and courage by emulating their favorite starship-voyaging characters.

Packed with hundreds of gags referencing Star Trek, Star Wars, comic books, and fan conventions, Night of the Living Trekkies reads like the strange lovechild of Galaxy Quest and Dawn of the Dead. Journey to the final frontier of zombie science-fiction satire!

and you can also check out the trailer here.

For a chance to win Night of the Living Trekkies just tell us:
Who would win in a fight, zombie Kirk or zombie Picard and why?

Winner will be chosen Monday 11th, standard terms and conditions we made up and amend as we want apply.

Don’t forget to check out the official page or to like the book on Facebook.

In anticipation of the October 5th release for both Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 DLC, The Sacrifice, Valve have released this short trailer.

The new campaign will be released for free on PC but Xbox owners will have to fork out 500MSP for it.

Oh Bill, we will miss you. Don’t forget to check out the comic leading up to the DLC here.
