NAZI ZOMBIES …I’m Addicted!

FPS “Call Of Duty: World at War” is graphically impressive, but I didn’t care much for the old war style gameplay. Although once the main campaign is clocked, a new mission is unlocked:

NAZI ZOMBIES

You’re trapped and cornered in a small room as zombies slowly advance. You’re armed and meant to kill them before they tear down the barricaded windows and enter. Survive the first wave of zombies and you move on to the next wave, hopefully with more money to buy more ammunition or a new gun, and enough time to barricade the windows back up again.

You can unlock three other sections of the house once you have killed enough zombies and earned enough money, but beware; more space to ‘run and gun’ means more windows and ledges for zombies to enter and surround you.

I think it’s a bloody great WWII zombie occult angle…

And I’m TOTALLY FUCKING ADDICTED!!!

You may be wondering what zombies are doing in a World War II game, well Executive producer Daniel Suarez has your answer:

“It was one of the pet projects of one of the designers. The seed of the idea came out of casual [tower] defence games online. It was something that they [developer Treyarch] had been working on for a while and went back to when they had time.”

“Nazi Zombies was sort of this rumour, and everybody would be like, ‘Nazi zombies? What Nazi zombies?’ The designers would sort of chuckle in the back corner and be like, ‘I don’t know what that is.’ And then one day it all of a sudden appeared in a build and it got so much traction internally.”

“All of the QA guys, the marketing guys, even the PR guys became big fans. So we decided to save it and announce it [the week of Halloween on GameTrailers]. It was a project of love that a lot of guys had a hand in.”
