    All I know is that I got the zombie unlock.

    How I got it or why I got it is beyond me.

    You get the zombie unlock when you get the "Let sleeping Rockstars Lie" achievement on the 360. On the PS3, it's available from the start.

    Yeah, it's a viral achievement. If you kill anybody who has the achievement unlocked, you get it. The 'virus' was started by Rockstar employees playing online during the first week or two after the launch. Or that is my understanding, at least.

    Kinda.

    Yes, it's a viral achievement. The game launched and during the first week or two some Rockstar employees played the online multiplayer until a handful of players managed to kill them. This unlocked the achievement "Let Sleeping Rockstars Lie" (10G) and unlocked the zombie character.

    The viral part of the equation is that anyone who killed the Rockstar employee's killer would unlock the achievement and the zombie as well. And so the "virus" spreads. To get the achievement you have to have killed a player who has already gotten the achievement from killing someone who has the achievement.

    Savvy?
