"...There's something about zombies and video games that bind geeks together in harmony, which is why we've been anxious to see what Jeff Strain's Undead Labs has in store for our favorite end-of-the-world scenario. Well drop your linen and start your grinnin', because Game By Night reports that EGM's latest physical issue (241.0) is chock-full of zombie goodness on the project.

The unnamed MMO is going to be console-only and will take place in today's world following a zombie apocalypse. Strain promises that the world will be dynamic and malleable -- think "sandbox" -- as players will build up defenses to protect settlements, lay down traps for the zombie horde and eventually take the fight to the undead. There may also be gardening (yup, you read that right)..."

Bugger.

I've fixed the link in the post above so that you can now click through to the article.

Jeff Strain was a big cheese in the development of StarCraft, Warcraft 3, Diablo and Guild Wars. He left ArenaNet to pursue his dream of setting up an indy studio to make the zombie MMO, and has over the last few months picked up a lot of well-known figures from ArenaNet. The studio's website is at http://undeadlabs.com/ (http://undeadlabs.com/)

zombie games dont bring geeks together, just look at L4D and this flowchart...
