Romeros City of the Dead Game?
Taken from www.creature-corner.com
Hip Games has posted the official website for George A. Romero’s City of the Dead. This game has garnered a bit of controversy due to the fact that Romero claims to not be involved in the game in any way. I find it a bit hard to believe that he has nothing to do with it, his name is all over this sucker as well as prominent links to his website from the games site. I’m sure GAR’s legal folks would be all over them for using his name in this fashion if he didn’t have some say into what was going on.
Regardless, the game appears to be moving right along. The official site has some cool pics and a nice trailer for all to check out. You can do that right now by clicking here.
One thing I really like about this game is that you get to play it as Tom Savini. Yep, kick zombie ass as the Master of Splatter, the Wizard of Gore, the Barron of Blood. From what I am told Tom’s role in this game was originally meant to be a cameo in the course of the game but someone made the wise choice to make playing the game as Tom an option and a great idea was born. Tom has already made an appearance on the G4 channel on their Attack of the Show program talking about his pre production work and what the games producers have in store for us.
We’ll keep an eye on this one for you as it makes it way to store shelves.
