Typically, Friday the 13th is a day reserved for black cats, bad luck and Jason Voorhees. But this year, in which we get three Friday the 13ths, I’m willing to make an exception for zombies.
The undead burst into flames this month, as Doublesix announces a March 26th release date for their PlayStation Network exclusive shooter, Burn Zombie Burn!
Yes, another zombie game — endless!! Though, upcoming PSN title Burn Zombie Burn! does look like it could be worth the price of admission.
Zombies are great – that’s pretty much a given – but they can be a bit of a downer too, can’t they? All that shuffling around and moaning, reminding us of our encroaching mortality and the unavoidable personal apocalypse that awaits us all. etc. etc.
There’s just something about Halloween time that brings the zombies crawling out of the woodwork. World of Warcraft’s got them, Grand Theft Auto IV is crawling with them, and now Pinnacle software and Doublesix will be infesting the PlayStation Network with them early next year with Burn Zombie Burn! BZB! is an arcade shooter starring a lantern-jawed hero named Bruce (a cross between Bruce Campbell and Elvis…so, Bruce Campbell) whose evening out with his best girl is interrupted by a zombie invasion. Burn, shoot, stab, and explode zombies across six horror movie themed levels, alone or with a friend. Build up combos to set off spectacular level events to aid you in your struggle. It sounds like my kind of mindless slaughter. Hit the jump for more details on this latest way enjoy yourself while setting fire to the undead. And hit the link for some screenies.
