If there is a quote referring to your game as “The crack cocaine of zombie-killing survival/action horror,” then you seriously need to live up to ultra high expectations. Valve, the makers of Half-Life (which I never actually played but was witness to many people’s wanton reactions to me when interrupting their Half-Life fests), have created a new epic action game based around zombies and the killing of said zombies.

The game won’t be released until November 17th, but that’s perfect considering it’s around the 2 week mourning period post Halloween, so I will be in dire need of zombie cocaine to get my spirits up.

Read that title again.

Very cool. Terrordrome is a classic (to most of us, anyway) 2D fighting game featuring the horror icons we grew up with. I can’t believe how fucking infinitely cool this sounds. It’s described as a “self producted [sic] game” and it is currently being developed by a team of clearly amazing, dedicated horror fans. You can head to the site now and download a demo for pc, and they promise the final version will be released “sometime in 2008.”  Sounds great to me.  Hail to the king, baby.
