but it is suicide if your any other black guy, as zombie movies have taught us.

[Cheddarius]

Gordon Freeman isn't black.

EDIT: I think perhaps you are thinking of Morgan Freeman?

Yep, Gordon Freeman most certainly is not black. And when it comes to zombies, he prefers a gravity gun and loose table saw blades to using a crowbar.

[kilakan]

Yes i was thinking of morgan freeman... epic fail my my part especially since I love the half life games... then again I love anything by Valve...

[sonerohi]

Morgan Freeman would survive the Apoc. His voice would soothe the zombies so thoroughly they would lose all desire to eat humans forever.

Yeah, but crowbar's still his trademark, right (or at least the thing he's always drawn with).

course 4 is better then 1 in some cases.  These guys never use melee weapons... except the propane tank.

That's because the crowbar is relatively lightweight. Standing absolutely still with a +20kg gravity gun for an hour while you are being drawn is extremely tiresome!

[Cheddarius]

So is standing on one foot while keeping your center of gravity way, way off that foot.

Man, this thread is far too big for it's own good. Does anyone know of a "Zombie Survival" roguelike? I don't know why, but I got a hankering for one.

Things like Resident Evil and L4D are nice, yes, but much too linear. Open-ended, unpredictable, desperate, difficult, that seems like a zombie game to me.

there is Dead frontier, though that's a zombie mmo with graphics barely a step up from ASCII

I checked Rogue Basin, and there's one called The Dawn of the Dead.

The text is in Spanish, apparently.

Yay supposedly World War Z is being turned into a movie.

Because there is no way to cure a virus. IIRC, there are anti-fungal drugs capable of eliminating fungus infections, anti bacterial drugs, and anti parasite drugs. The best one can do with a virus is slow it down.
