"In a new video documentary for House of the Dead: Overkill, there was a brief mention about how Headstrong Games was given full control over what they could do with the Nintendo Wii and what kind of content they could push into the game. They also mention that Nintendo never turned down any of the mature themes that appear in the game, meaning that they do get a say-so on the crap that gets put into third-party games."

Jerry from BagoGames says, "Let's honor the passing of the horror-film inspiration George Romero with these five horror video games that remind me of his genius."
Adam from GamersFTW writes "Are zombie games meant to be fun, frightening or something else entirely? Zombie media these days is like rubbish after a particularly rough party; it’s everywhere and somebody really should clean it up. So in that spirit let’s better define the different types of games we have in this pile and what mood they’re best played in."
Never really thought about discretising zombie games in this way, but have played and enjoyed most of these for various reasons.
House of the Dead Overkill is a laugh. "Critics say it's mother-f***ing good!" Classic.
I definitely reccomend looking at Killing Floor 2. To me, it is the next big thing in survival horror. While it's not exactly "zombies" the horror factor mixed with co-op and customization makes it feel like a standalone CoD zombies title. I just feel as it is only on PC at the moment it doesn't get enough publicity.
I was gonna say "where's DayZ" but then I remembered I haven't really noticed the zombies' presence in DayZ for the last 3 years
Of course they let it through. Why would they want to stop something that helped the PS1 and PS2 to be so successful? One persons crap game is another persons favorite title. Several Rugrats titles and many other casual kids games outsold many hardcore PS2 games. Did anyone not have fun playing God of War 2 because tons of crap games outsold it? I doubt it.
Enough, I remember hearing these same things spoken of the DS as well. once the 3rd year hit it was like the floodgates were let open. I'm still baffled how this whole shovelware argument being bad for gaming still has legs. Every market leading console has had crap on the system, it comes with the territory.
