Activision's The Walking Dead Comic-Con swag is so gross
No, seriously. Look! The first 100 fans that pre-order The Walking Dead at Activision's booth during San Diego Comic-Con this week will get a necklace of zombie ears. So gross! Oh, and in case you missed it last week, Activision is making a first-person shooter based on AMC's The Walking Dead in development by Terminal Reality. The game sounds like it will stay true to The Walking Dead formula, as players will have the option of taking zombies head-on or using stealth to get around the zombie menace.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Alright, to explain the Ear Necklace, it was created by Daryl Dixon (Character of the game) during the second season of the show. Activision hasn't shown anything yet, and I'm already bored of it. That said, I could do with an ear necklace. I'd fit right in on my next trip to Glasgow. Does the creation of whatever "amc Studios" is mean that I can have a Mad Men game now? Make it an FPS where you play as *spoiler* don draper before he is don draper and he was at war for a little bit. I don't think that's a good idea but i would pay any amount of money for any form of interactive don draper. 8:30 PM on 05.23.2013 Black Ops 2's Revolution DLC has a free trial weekendCall of Duty: Black Ops 2's Revolution map pack will be free to play on Xbox 360 this weekend, Activision's Dan Amrich announced, who only confirmed the promotion for Microsoft's console.
