Yesterday, I posted an entry talking about an upcoming game called Zombie Driver so you can imagine my surprise when I bumped into an announcement noting that the game was released today on Steam.

My jaw dropped even lower when I read that it will cost a cool ten nine bucks to snag the title (for a limited time) and then it shoots to the moon to ten bucks. Wow … we are in definite impulse purchase territory here. The only thing stopping me from buying this right now is my current game of Plants Versus Zombies, but I have a feeling that my will just might snap sooner than later.

About the game itself, Kotaku did a fine write up of it:

Zombie Driver’s name caught my eye, and then the gameplay trailer we posted in October took said eye out and played with it for awhile. Looking very much like an old-school Grand Theft Auto title, Zombie Driver sees players driving through an undead-infected city, plowing through hordes of zombies as they race to rescue survivors of the apocalypse. As you play you buy and unlock new cars, upgrading them with various implements of destruction, such as flamethrowers, rocket launchers, or dual railguns.

Must not purchase … must not purchase …
