Just saw some rare PC footage yesterday (it's new), via Colony of Gamers:

They instantly lost me at "third-person shooter". Them are yucky.

Man, I say we boycott this scheduled downtime! Come on, who's with me?!!! *rabble rabble rabble*

"VideoSift 4.0 Launch."

This is major enough news to warrant reporting?

BN is about the only place I really ever see that site mentioned/linked to SO much. If it wasn't for BN I'd prolly never bump into it again. So OK, out of the millions of video portal sites, why all the daily linking (for years now) to that particular site anyway? Never have got that. Is BN somehow connected with it? Curious now.

Just a note: It's Nexon, not Nexus.

Noooooo thank you. I'll stick with Left 4 Dead from now on.

I'm sorry, but now that I've played that, I just can't stand (or see the point of) Zombie Panic! Source anymore.

Over the years, I've often thought that id's true calling (but I'm sure they'll ultimately die someday with this, their real music, still inside them) is finally to do an EPIC, full-on, zombie survival horror game based on George Romero's DAWN OF THE DEAD (1979).

Just always felt they were The company, if anyone could, to do the idea justice (and trust me, someday someone's gonna do it).

Really, they're the ones who should have thought of LEFT 4 DEAD!

Just my 2 cents.

Don't be crybabies, remember, its ALL FREE!

What's ALL FREE? I haven't seen anything "free" from them yet with BFH. Or did I miss something?

When's the update list ever going to say Counter-Strike: Source was updated AT ALL?! We were promised new maps and updated effects and stuff a year ago (Valve said CS:S updates and new content would follow Orange Box).

Whatever.

Well, poop, so when can we at least try this thing then?! Let's see it already. I think it could turn out to be pretty cool (but after months and months of waiting, I'm starting to lose a lot of interest--same with the free BFHeroes deal).

Rise of the Triad is still one of my all-time favorite games. My brothers and I played the stuffing out of the direct-connect multiplayer DM modes (long live "Falling For It" & "The Corpseyard")!!!

I've still never had as much fun.

In-game or it doesn't exist.

The mod will be 50GB download from a very slow site. It will be in .exe format so it will take at least an hour for your virus scanner to scan it.

Way to sell it!

Wonder when the heck we'll be able to actually start playing QUAKE LIVE at its website?

Uh, first I'd like to be getting Battlefield Heroes (the game) for FREE...

Come on, why SHOULD Romero care about (or even have to know anything about) Dead Rising. He doesn't retain the rights to DAWN OF THE DEAD anymore so it's really none of his financial concern today. MKR Group Inc. (who owns the original DAWN now) is the only one who needs to be worried about that game (if anyone does), not George Romero.

Right on, man!

Valve is SO cooler than Crytek.

As a die hard Romero traditionalist, I prefer dumb, slow moving zombies too (in my movies anyway), and find them a lot creepier, however, in the context of this game, I think they're making the right decision to use mostly fast ones (and remember there are still some slower zombies, too, in L4D, just mostly fast).

Turtle Rock's Michael Booth (the main guy behind this title, aka "God" for me right now) has explained before that they actually did try slow zombies in the game at first, but all the testing was showing it was pretty boring, so they tried the 28 DAYS LATER kind and it totally worked 100% better! That's why they're mostly fast in L4D.

But rest assured, I'm positive people will quickly make "slow zombie mods", that will transform everything over to the, uh, more realistic(?) "Romero" world of zombies. Malls and all.

I think mods will take this game to some very cool levels for zombie movie fans.
