Good Zombies, Bad Zombies and Capcom Is Just Genuinely Awesome.

THE GOOD ZOMBIES

Dead Rising 2 is to feature co-op play. This is win for so many reasons. Mainly because having you and a mate running round like nutters killing thousands of Zombies using anything sounds to me, like my perfect game. Not just my perfect Zombie game, but my favourite game, period. Release date’s in September. I can’t wait!

THE BAD ZOMBIES

Left 4 Dead 2 is finally getting it’s first piece of DLC, The passing, this Thursday on Xbox. It has loads of awesome features, and of course includes the original survivors. Read that again. Yes, I only said Xbox and that’s not a typo I’m afraid. It just hasn’t been confirmed for PC yet. Oh Valve. Why. What’s happened to you?

CAPCOM IS JUST GENUINELY AWESOME

I don’t even have to explain why this the best thing I’ve seen all day. Chris Redfield fighting the Hulk? Oh God yes.

Casual Games Sometimes = Win

PopCap have an extraordinary gift. They are perhaps one of the only gaming companies in the world that can make casual games incredibly hardcore. Easily accessible for a new player, incredibly addictive to anyone who plays it and features enough depth to keep the hardcore market completely hooked.

Yes, Peggle Nights has been glued to my screen since yesterday and when I’m not staring blankly at a screen full of balls (Careful) I’m staring at a screen full of Foliage and the undead.

I also go Plants Vs. Zombies, which so far is another reason why PopCap should probably be controlling the Earth as the official representatives  of galatic fun and addictiveness.

Also I’m back now. It’s been a busy weekend!
