Today one of my co-workers came over to my desk all very excited about an upcoming zombie game called “H vs Z”. I asked him if he was confused with the live action zombie game that has been taking over campuses, but he was certain that there was a new game called H vs Z coming out for the XBox this year. I was kind of shocked that I hadn’t heard of it so I asked him to send me a link. Well, it turned out to be a Cracked article. Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed telling him Cracked was a gag rag which made his face change into several shades of red.

The game itself sounds great. Sure, it may be fake, but it’s all about the hardcore players.

And, you stay a zombie. You’re now preying on your squad mates, eating their flesh to upgrade your own strength. As a zombie you can “smell” their internal organs so you can pick out the choicest meat needed to upgrade your zombie skills.

The whole time your former mates are begging and screaming your name, saying “FRANK! It’s me! Don’t you recognize me! FRAAAAANK UGGGGHHhhh …”

Your game is stored on a locked file on the hard drive. Reset the game, you’re still a zombie. You can’t change it. Not until you finish the game. Hey, that’s life.

Sound pretty good, eh? All I can say is bring it on ;)
