VG247: "Emmanuel Roth, a senior staff animator at Bend Studios, is responsible for a lot of the work that has gone into the cinematics of Days Gone. There are plenty of them, too – during my four-hour demo of the game it often stopped to flash back to the past, or to play a cinematic of characters talking to one another, or to establish major developments and characters. He comes from a background in games that stretches back to the PS2 (he was an animator on curio Jet Li vehicle Rise to Honor); stretching back even further, he worked in television and film, including a stint at PDI/Dreamworks where he worked on Antz and Shrek. Roth has been with Bend Studio for 14 years now, having joined during the development of the critically acclaimed Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror for the PSP. Development on Days Gone began six years ago, when the team was much smaller."

Developer Survios stopped by IGN Live to share how the iconic Xenomorphs will hunt players down in VR, thanks to unique pathing that makes their movements entirely unpredictable. Plus, Survios shares its ultimate goal with Rogue Incursion: To make players rip their VR headset off out of sheer terror.
Sitting down with Miyazaki to talk about capping off Elden Ring, his "ideal fantasy game," and more.
TheGamer Interviewed Naoki Yoshida: "A lot of people have been playing together with me and they don't even realize it."
They’ve been saying that since the reveal and it’s clear they aren’t, but one could argue that it falls within the zombie survival genre itself
Maybe it has something to do with the story and that is why they want to make the distinction.
I found this funny: "Oh no no no, these are not zombies, these are Freakers, they make nests and sht. They are smart and drink water. They are not Zombies. Stop calling them that. Zombies are ugly, smelly and slow and make Grrrrrrrrrr"
They are making this distinction probably because they know the worst backlash this game will probably face is how tiring the whole Zombie apocalypse thing has become; so I guess this is not a Zombie apocalypse now is more like a Freakers Apocalypse :)
"We insist that they are not zombies" - we talk to Bend Studios about PS4 zombie game
Quite enjoyed that headline, bit naughty but it's true, they are zombies. Doesn't matter to me though, supposedly we're drowning in zombie games but I can't remember the last one I played.
You can insist all you want. Those are zombies my guy. They look like zombies and act like zombies.
