Based on this year�s George A. Romero film and developed by Brainbox Games, this first-person shooter will feature over 20 levels of splattery play, revolving around the following story: �A gruesome plague breaks out and mobs of bloody corpses invade the tri-state area, killing people at random. You play Jack, a trouble-free farmer who must rise beyond fear, and battle your way through hordes of terrifying undead who are bent on spreading the zombie plague. �You hear reports over the shortwave radio that a Mr. Kaufman has established a safe zone within a walled city and is inviting survivors to join him in his new �City of the Living,� � the synopsis continues. �Along with Otis, another survivor, you fight off the mindless corpses, desperately hoping to escape their disgusting clutches and make it to Mr. Kaufman�s protective cocoon. Upon arriving, Mr. Kaufman offers you a special job, with an equally special reward�in exchange for clearing out the remaining undead from �Fiddler�s Green,� Mr. Kaufman will provide you with a penthouse suite in a luxury condominium and a lot of money. An offer too good to turn down for our simple Jack, but will he live long enough to reap the rewards?� �George A. Romero�s LAND OF THE DEAD is a new classic in the zombie film genre, and Groove Games is excited to bring games based on the film to the PC and Xbox,� says Groove CEO Jon Walsh. �The game features intense action that horror fans will love, and the ability to play head to head against other players in zombie-infested levels is an absolute blast.� Weapons you can use will include sniper rifle, revolver, Glock, .22 rifle, shotgun, M-16, hammer, golf club, baseball bat, shovel, lead pipe, fire ax, grenade, molotov cocktail and good old-fashioned fists; a multiplayer option will be available via Xbox Live or the Internet for the PC edition. Retail price will be $29.99 for the Xbox version, $19.99 for the PC, and the game rating, not surprisingly, will be Mature. Look for exclusive images from the game to be added to this item later today! �Michael Gingold |
