The Zombie Apocalypse hits XLBA, PSN next week photo

If there's one thing I like more than playing videogames, it's killing zombies. Too bad I'll be in Japan next week covering the Tokyo Game Show, because Konami has announced that Zombie Apocalypse is finally making its way to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

The game hits Xbox LIVE Arcade on September 23, with PlayStation Network seeing the zombie invasion the very next day. It'll cost you 800 MS Points, or $9.99 in American money to fend off the zombie hordes with three of your friends.

Zombie Apocalypse
is an overhead twin-stick shooter by Nihilistic, the folks that last developed the third-person action boobs- and gore-a-thon, Conan for THQ. For more details, check out Hamza's preview from last April. Also, this game has an MC Hammer achievement. Sold yet?

I could buy 10 "I made a video game with zombies in it" for that kind of play-dog.

Well, if it's for 800 points I suppose that's not too bad. Anything more than that and I really wouldn't be interested.

@Snaileb: But then most countries can't buy community games so we get no "I made a video game with zombies in it"'s for that price!

I wonder if it will stack up to the greatness of Burn Zombie Burn

I'll wait for reviews, but it looks nice. I may have to save my money for Dead Nation.

I wish the superstardust guys weren't losing time with another zombie shooter.. Burn zombie burn, this one, and their zombie shooter.. Too many.
