zombies are so hot right now. If not, throw a molotov cocktail on one and they soon will be.

kesvalk4173d ago

i love zombies but dinos do win.

either way more of both, this is a trend im pleased with personally.

Pillsbury14173d ago

More zombies please :) more walking dead!

talisker4173d ago

They won't go away for several reasons:
1. It appeals to many young gamers because "zombies are cool".
2. It's very easy to make NPCs. AI is not an issue with hordes.
3. You can sell a brutal zombie game to teenagers as zombies are not real people (it doesn't count they were).
4. You don't really need to think about art style when you produce graphics with corpses.
5. Zombie games sell.

ThanatosDMC4173d ago

Imagine if they made a zombie movie but along the plot of Twilight. Some stupid chick falling in love with a zombie who want to eat her brains. Actually, no... if it becomes popular and becomes a trilogy, i would really hate people.

They are: http://www.imdb.com/title/t...
Although to call it a 'zombie' is stretching it.

Anyway on topic, DayZ and The Walking Dead were the type zombie games I was waiting for, and now we have them I'm pretty fed up with the standard zombie game. Until someone mixes the two: an open world realistic zombie survival game, but with realistic human characters and consequences to your decisions. I thought Dead Island would be that game, but we know how that turned out.

Well, he definitely got his money’s worth.

Abnor_Mal287d ago

Same as Shirley Curry playing Skyrim for years. In the next Elders Scrolls game they should have her in the game as some form of npc.

andy85287d ago

She is, I read she will be a character. Not a dig in any form but I hope she's alive when it releases

Relientk77287d ago

That's over 7,000 hours geez. What crazy stats

nitus10287d ago

Actually it is very easy to up the number of hours you have been playing a game. Basically all you need to do (assuming you have a PS4 or 5) is to place the console into stand-by without exiting the game, so if you do this a one hour gameplay actually becomes a 24 gameplay or longer.

boing1287d ago

What? So the game is still runinng when you put it to sleep? What?

EvertonFC287d ago

It's actually sad not an achievement but hey we need the full story details.

Knushwood Butt287d ago

There's someone on my friend list that has more than 6200 hours on Uncharted 4.

vTuro24286d ago

7k hours over 15 years isn't that crazy. The fact that he's been playing the same game for 15 years is more impressive.

And then you got people that want to finish a game every week.

Rhythmattic287d ago

Nailed what is the Spectrum... For good and bad, Quality or Quantity..Or the unreasonable to reason for. ;)

jznrpg287d ago

Of course you will hit a ridiculous stat after 15 of anything.
My main character for Everquest had over 500 days played in the first 6 years of the game. I was young then and had a lot of time on my hands. I don’t think I could duplicate that again until I retire and not sure I could match it if I tried.

EvertonFC287d ago

500 days in 6 years is nothing lol, you do realise how many days in a year right ?

poppatron287d ago

I might be getting the maths wrong here, I think 500 days in 6 years works out at an average of just over 6 hours every single day. For 6 years. That’s pretty serious

EvertonFC287d ago

Edit: wrote this early this morning, I understand it's lots of hours now lol at myself 😂🤣😜

RedDevils287d ago

The only way to achieve this, is by having no life outside of video game lol.

Outlawzz287d ago

Strange choice of game but hey that's some devotion. Congrats to them!
