Zombie Apocalypse features MC Hammer Achievement photo

I'm well aware that this is actually not news, in fact you might even go as far as to say it is anti-news. If this post and a real news post touched the world might end. However, every Sunday at the Razak domicile is Hammer Time and when it's Hammer Time all information about MC Hammer, baggy pants or Hammer's Saturday morning cartoon, Hammerman, shall be posted. What info do we have for you today on MC Hammer?

Looks like he will be making an Achievement appearance in Zombie Apocalypse, the upcoming downloadable Smash TV/Left 4 Dead hybrid for the 360. The Achievement, entitled "Can't Touch This," features a silhouette of Hammer in his trademark baggy pants and can be obtained by racking up a 100x multiplier in any game mode. Does this instantly make the game a must have? Yes, yes it does. Now, just for a minute, let's all do the bump.

Although a big fan of Hammer, and I totally approve of the games reference to him, this isn't really news.

Razak you should post some monday reviews in the clogs when it's a slow news day. Always like your reviews and am to damn lazy to visit the site you usually post them at.

I loved that cartoon when I was kid and thought that rap was awesome, but i hadn't listened to it since then. Now that I have heard it again I realize I was very, very wrong about it.

If you ever get to the 90x multiplier and find yourself unable to get all the way to 100, just keep telling yourself that you're 2 Legit 2 Quit and you'll be ok.

"Can't Touch This"? How original! Maybe they'll have DLC with an achievement for "Stop! Hammertime"! I can't wait.

Hi guys, this is Mark Cooke from Nihilistic Software.

Just wanted to let you know that Zombie Apocalypse will be releasing soon (hence the achievement list leaking) but I can't give a specific release date just yet. If you want to be automatically notified when it is coming out and keep up on the latest info on the game you can join our Facebook group here:

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Zombie-Apocalypse/120503905941

It also comes with bonus zombie news!!!1

We just need to try to stay alive long enough to put the finishing touches on the game. Our CEO has turned into a zombie and has started killing some of the employees. Help us out by voting on what the survivors should do next here:

Hope you'll all enjoy the game.

Hammerman is awful. He raps worse than white people.
