ZombiU Continues to Promote Wanton Zombie Murder

Can't wait for the release of this!

Being new console starved, this game and Lego City: Undercover will make me pick up a Wii:U despite hating the new "controller"

Funny, nobody seems to complain about the multitude of trailers for other games...Assassin's Creed III, for instance...

This game seems to have more of a story that I thought. It needs a better title.

@Mars: think of the CoD sheep.....playing cod online using the tablet controller while someone else watches netflix on the big screen. HEAVEN!

I really wish I could get excited for the WiiU, but it just feels like another Nintendo gimmick that I don't need.

There really should be a limit on how many trailers you can release for a game.

What completely farcical fiction!

...firearms in England!

I would like to play this, looks cool, but not getting a console for it, so.. :'(

Has Alex ever written a non-snarky post title and one sentence summary?

This continues to be the only interesting thing about the Wii U.

If I was getting a WiiU at launch I would definitely pick up this game. I have yet to be let down by a zombie game I've bought, which is the reason why I'm steering clear of RE6.

This actually looks a bit interesting...

That is one dirty camera lens. :p I don't like that effect at all.

That's no effect, it's just last-gen graphics.

ZING

I hate to say this, but this looks like a Sourcemod. If it wasn't a WiiU launch title, I really doubt it'd get anywhere near this much press.

I dont hate the WiiU. The launch games just arent all that great. ZombiU and Nintendo Land? C'mon. I'll admit i'm starved for a new console. As much as I like PC gaming I get sidetracked too easily, and i'm too lazy to switch between monitors. ;p

But i'd like there to be at least one game that proves the technology isnt just a gimmick before I get it. I have faith there will be one but from what they've shown of ZombiU it looks like all the touch screen is used for is mini-games and inventory management, which is sad.

What would you expect it to be used for in a game like this? the touch screen is no different than the DS touch screen. Different games will find different uses for it based on their needs.

Res-bite?

I'm totally glad the US gets the WiiU before PAL regions do, I'll be able to hear whether this game is awesome or if it totally sucks, it feels like it's got a good chance of going either way.

Some neat gameplay ideas with the second screen, but the art direction in this seems a bit...flat? Don't get me wrong it's competently designed and you can see some texture detail and lighting that does seem slightly beyond the 360 and PS3, but what they do with it seems kinda generic.

I became very tired of Zombies long ago, and I hardly do any Zombie games and such. Having said that, they do seem to be trying....

As other ppl. mentioned, luv the hats staying/kept on, very british (I would assume)

Epic Zombie Bacon Pirates!

Was really hoping someone else would make a Battlefield Z joke.

That is one dirty camera lens. :p I don't like that effect at all.

Zombie beefeaters!

You're definitely not the only one. With Dishonored and XCOM out the door, ZombiU and Hitman are my most anticipated non-handheld games this year!

They must be averaging... what, two unique instances of "go into a low wall-hole a get pulled back out by a zombie" per trailer?

@jonnyboy: way to generalize the game's representation of the city based upon a single environment. ZombiU dont care

The tower guards were able to keep their hats on after being turned. Duty first.

It would be really nice to see London accurately portrayed in a game, and not rely on landmarks and architecture that turns me into a tourist in the country I've lived in all my life. London is a huge modern metropolis, with loads of fascinating places that a game could be set, so obviously what better place to represent that than a nearly 900 year old castle.The Getaway managed it, MW3 was pretty close, and that's about it. As much as I love Zombies, and are interested in playing Zombie U this might as well be set in the 'Friends goes to London' episode.

I read this as Wonton Zombie Murder. I must be hungry.

Cool trailer, I just don't think that this is I game that I'd play

sure why not

Epic Zombie Bacon Pirates!
