Quake 4 (when I have a good enough pc)
Fable 2
Anything further from the Max Payne series

A really GOOD zombie game...the xbox one is just too hectic to be really fun and have good atmosphere, felt way too arcadey, LOTD:Fiddlers Green had the right feel, but a lot of room for improvement, Postal 2: Apocalypse weekend was close...progress IS happening, the definitive zombie game will yet come out...

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (on the wii)
Far Cry 2 (or any sequels)
Haven't played the halflife episodes yet, they look good.
New Sam 'n' Max
Call of Duty 3 (wii)

Anything cool like Runaways, Broken Sword, Quest for Glory...questy/adventure type games.

I was looking forward to City of the Dead, the Romero based game released as more of a companion to Land of the Dead than Fiddler's Green and starring Tom Savini.

The apocalypse weekend expansion, the zombie parts there were (pretty much the whole latter half of the game) were more fun, and the zombies looked really good....Then, I haven't got into dead rising all that much...one thing I did pick up is that it was way too arcadey, and when there's that many zombies, it felt as though any kind of scary atmosphere was shot to hell...I disliked it for the same reason I disliked "state of emergency" I think a zombie horde here and there in a game is fine, but the whole game? Any kind've novelty wore off in about 5 minutes. There's also something about a FPS that makes this kind've game work so much better.

Have done, wasn't bad.

Newb...crackdown looks kinda interesting. Very "sega". What comp. is it being released under? Any more details?
And, yeah stranglehold is on my list too.

Clive Barkers Jericho will definately get some play time.
Haven't played "hellgate: London" yet either.
Might pick this up too http://www.gopostal.com/store/fudgepack.php
The new ZELDA looks pretty good.
Games in general...just looking out for some good ones on the wii...I don't think any of their release titles have been all that strong, so it should be cool to see what's out over the next year, other than that, I'm looking foward to playing some of my old favourites on the wii, largescreen and running to perfection. Flashback, shining force, streets of rage...fun stuff.

Oh you want a scary zombie game, gotcha. I thought you wanted like a good dawn of the dead type game. Also why do I keep calling the game Dead Reckoning? :(

Resident Evil 4 scared the crap out of me, hearing a chainsaw in the distance and then you turn around and that crazy burlap sack woman has got a chainsaw in your neck already! :D

Yeah, scary, atmpspheric, fearing for my "life" kinda deal. The fiddlers green one was alright for that.

Never played it...might do since the wii is backwards compatible.
I liked what I played of #0 too, wouldn't mind trying that again...the ones on ps2 were largely shit though. I don't know about the RE1 remake...I feel there's no way they could improve it enough to go through it again, I've completed the original like 5 times...looked interesting though, but I'd rather #0 or 4.

I think there were times where Dead Rising really got fun and packed with tension. The cultists when you first run upon them, trying to disarm bombs while being run over/shot at/attacked by zombies, and the overall feel of the overwhelming numbers. Of course it's more "arcade" like but I think that gameplay is well suited for taking on mobs of the undead. You can have fun and goof around if you want and make it more of a horror comedy game but you can also play it through as a tense, thrilling experience (but not too "arcadey" like Zombies Ate My Neighbors!). Anyway, I loved Dead Rising.

Blue Dragon, Dark Sector, Lost Planet, Cipher Complex, Crackdown, Def jam: Icon, Alan Wake, Mass Effect, Assassins Creed, Bioshock, Fable 2, Army of Two... I think all of those look promising.
