A very interesting take on moving zombie killing games to the next level.  I'll look at the site in more detail when I have some time this weekend.  A quick skim didn't reveal anything obvious about release dates or trial versions.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

DO
WANT
ZOMG!
And, available for Xbox!

One of the types of games I've been wanting for awhile is a freeplay zombie killer.  I'd also like a freeplay end of the world game.  Something unstructured and open ended.  Fallout was fun but I'd like something more open ended and larger scale.

Then you should check out the ARMA 2 zombie mods. Day Z seems to be the more popular one, although there are quite a few.

Pretty sure it's PC only.

I think you should move over to the dark side.  Ditch the pansybox.

With much reluctance (because to do so makes me a hypocrite) I'm going to have to hit "agree".
I haven't touched my Xbox since I got my new laptop, other than to play video on Hulu.

13 years of titles since I had my last gaming rig. That's a lot of content to explore.

I'd rather not need to buy or build an expensive computer every few years just to keep up.  That's why I ditched PC gaming to begin with.

I understand, and if my track record is any use/remotely accurate, I'll most likely game on the next couple gens xbox and buy my next laptop/pc in 2025. =D
