Burn Zombie Burn. Sounds awesome. It'll be a Playstation Network exclusive release, early 2009. Pinnacle Software and developer Doublesix are are bringing back a classic arcade like shooter feel where you play as Bruce, who while visiting his girlfriend Daisy, are attacked by hordes of zombies. Though called "Burn Zombie Burn" there are still many other ways to kill them.
The game is very reminiscent of Monster Madness. A 3rd person quick moving shooter that seems to be packed full of action. The 6 levels, are each separately themed after classic horror films. Hopefully they fair better than Monster Madness did though.
KEY FEATURES
• Six American horror movie inspired playable levels – The Woods, Graveyard, Suburbia, Drive-In, Military Base and Secret Lab
• Three single-player modes – Freeplay, Timed and Defence
• Two player Co-op and Versus modes (Freeplay and Timed only)
• Ten bloody and gag-filled custom Challenges across all levels including ‘My Exploding Zombie Head!’ (kick it around the map and shoot to detonate), ‘Zombies Ate My Teddy!’ (zombies are after your teddy. Stop them!) and ‘Lawn of the Dead!’ (a lawnmower and a lot of zombies. You work it out!)
• Eight zombie types to slaughter, each with their own behaviourial patterns, strengths and weaknesses – Normal, Exploder, Crazy, Dancers, Rushers, Riot, Noxious and Super Zombie!
• Fantastic range of primary weapons to dish out some zombie hurt with including baseball bat, chainsaw, lawnmower and the Brain Gun!
• Dish out additional zombie pain with pickup enhanced Timed, Proximity and Remote Explosives for that nice, at a safe distance zombie evisceration!
• Set fire to zombies to net a big score multiplier. The more zombies on fire, the bigger your multiplier and the quicker your score rises
• Level Event on every level activated by keeping on killing with the same weapon to build up a combo ticker. Max out three and the Event is activated, a different one for each level, including a UFO, a God Ray and Laser Beams, all of which will help you out
• Three in-game characters; Bruce - across between Bruce Campbell and Elvis, Bruno – Bruce’s quieter brother, and Daisy – Bruce’s girl
Holy crap, this sounds EXACTLY like Zombies Ate My Neighbors. I'm probably going to buy a PS3 just for this if it's anywhere near as good as it seems it could be.
Looks like I finally have a good reason to buy the PS3 !!!!!
