I cannot wait until I get paid. As my life is Hellish at the moment I'm looking forward to getting lost in some videogames. This isn't so much a blog post as a rambling of my hungover thoughts. But anyway, the games I intend to buy (hopefully!) are thus;
House of the Dead 2 and 3 (Wii) - I actually already have House of the Dead 2 on the Dreamcast and on the X-box, and have House of the Dead 3 on the X-box, so I'm kinda a sucker for wanting to buy them yet again.
Zombie Revenge (Dreamcast) - I'm hoping to track this down in E-Bay, I used to own it, and thought it was quite average with awful controls, but it has a level set in the mansion from House of the Dead, so that's really cool!
Silent Hill 5 (360) - I meant to buy this this month, but due to personal issues I wasn't in the mood to buy things. I love this series, obviously Silent Hill 2 is the best, but I have a real soft spot for Silent Hill 3, I feel it was under-rated. Silent Hill is still fantastic, and Silent Hill 4 I did enjoy, eventually on my third play though.
Resident Evil 5 (360) - I was totally put off this game by the dreadful demo, and having no friends makes me dread having to play though the game with a hidious A.I controlled character, but I do love the series, and the story, so must get it really.
Onechanbara (360, and Wii) - I'm going to buy both the 360, and Wii versions of this game, as one is the sequal to the other (I think the Wii one is the sequal). There quite cheap (well they were, I hope they still are) and should be some good zombie mashing fun.
Left 4 Dead (360) - I have been putting off buying this game for so long, again as again I have no friends to play it with. I know it is multi-player only, but I guess I will just have to play it with strangers.
Call of Duty: World at War (360) - I thought the demo was ok, I'm more interested in the zombie modes though, plus one of my 360 friends plays the game constantly, as in all the frickin time. On a side note I have about 7 or 8 360 friends, yet I have never actually played anything with any of them (well apart from the D-Toid friends on Friday Game night).
Resident Evil: Gun Survivor (Playstation) - Lastely this one, I used to own this, despite looking like crap, it was actually quite fun, or so my memory tells me. The lack of a save point was annoying, but I remember cool monkey like SWAT team monsters, and the story is canon which is really cool for a Resident Evil nerd like me.
So there you have it, the list of games I intend to buy depending on cost (I have bills to pay). Hollow times indeed. I know this post is a mess, but I'm surprised by stoopid hungover brain was able to manage this much!

I was going to say that Call of duty was the odd one out but uh, no, they have Nazi Zombies.
I think you should try, "Hello Kitty Island Adventure" ,just to mix things up a bit.
.....I also don't own any of these games. ;(
Buy a cow.
I want My Little Pony: Adventure Island!
I take it you have a Zombie fetish? If you owned a PS3, you missed adding Burn Zombie Burn. lol.
@Y0J1MB0 - Nah, I don't have a PS3, holding out for a price cut however unlikely that is. As well as Burn Zombie Burn I also really wanna play that other zombie one, the one with the overhead view of a city, can't recall what it's called. I kinda love Zombies!
"buy a cow"
yes. do this.
@ Happy Head I think your referring to the last guy. I might be mistaken. Anyways enjoy the zombie genocide you have planned.
Great list!
I would take out the Onechanbara(s) and add MadWorld and Dead Rising Wii (both have zombies), but that's just me.
In conclusion, Braiiiiiiins!
A psychologist [read: me completely projecting like an asshole onto your gaming wishes] would say you're urge to kill the undead reflects that you have a suppressed urge to destroy the "undead", drone-ish aspects of your own life.
@PASCUZ46 - yeah, thats the one I was totally thinking of!
@Jonathan Holmes - I totally forgot about Dead Rising on the Wii, heh, and MadWorld has zombies? cool! Hmm may need to rethink my list, or make a lucky dip to see which ones I shall get. I wish I were rich...
But zombies are so damn cool, there can never be too many zombie games.
I agree, Zombie games are made of pure win.
