Rumor: Spider-Man vs. Marvel Zombies creeping to Wii, 360, PS3
Guaranteeing us an ample amount of heebie jeebies in the near future, the supposed megaton marketing leak has revealed Spider-Man vs. Marvel Zombies for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii, where our second favorite webbed superhero takes on foes and former friends now zombified, from Marvel Zombies series.
According to a reported screengrab, the T-rated game takes place in an open city, a "free swinging environment in war torn Earth, 2149." Just a reminder: all of this is still a rumor, so don't get your hopes up until there's an official announcement.

That is just about the most ridiculous god damned premise I've ever heard of.
Tom @ Jun 15th 2008 11:47PM
I want to eat a piece of the Silver Surfer too!
Lewis (GT: StoneRevolver) @ Jun 16th 2008 12:07AM
And I'llllll buy it :)
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jun 16th 2008 12:30AM
And that's why the comics were awesome!!

Zombie Hulk want piece of flying man!
*MMMFGGGBBLLMRRRGGHHH*
Mmmmmmm, hulk devour brain of flying man!
Yeah, actually, that is pretty stupid. Since the whole Zombies universe is on a different earth, why not make the next Ultimate Alliance out of this premise...why would they just pick Spider-Man?
Anticrawl @ Jun 16th 2008 10:05AM
Is that a zombie Cyclops holding his own head? I don't know if I should be appaled or think this is freaking awesome. Atleast it's a better idea than a "Non-mortal Kombat" with DC characters.
Mrblonde @ Jun 16th 2008 12:05PM
You guys never heard of Marvel Zombies? I have known about it for a long time. Its major epic win in my book. I loves it.
j.howlett @ Jun 15th 2008 11:45PM
that picture brings up an old question for me, can wolverine come back from a zombie bite?
Luke @ Jun 16th 2008 12:34AM
That's an old question for you?
fred @ Jun 16th 2008 6:49AM
hey with a name like that it's an important one
emirabal @ Jun 16th 2008 8:58AM
Nice name you got james or should i say logan, are you worried, i personally feel he would come back. So no need to worry, im more intrigued by the fact that cyclops can still shoot his optic beam when he has his head severed, and from what i understand of zombie lore, he should be dead at this point. I read World War Z man
j.howlett @ Jun 16th 2008 9:06AM
yeah, i used to think about comic book rules alot. like how some have gotten stronger over the years. i've seen wolvie blown up, shot up with an AK at close range, set on fire, but i missed him being torn in half.
DemonGSides @ Jun 16th 2008 10:02AM
If you actually read WWZ or the Zombie Survival guide, you'd know that decapitation does not destroy the brain, and as such, is not an effective way to kill a Zombie.
And Wolverine's body does not combat poison, so no, no he wouldn't come back from a zombie bite.
Tim The Enchanter @ Jun 16th 2008 11:42AM
Yes, Logan's body does combat poison over time. But not all Zombie mythos are based on the same principle. Most are changed by a virus, others are mutations from radiation, some by magics, etc. Havent read MZ though, so I'm not sure which one that is.
And yes, you have to actually damage/destroy the brain(WWZ). The question I have by looking at this image is how he can control his body. The brain needs to be attached otherwise, all he could do is stare and bite.
Zsavior @ Jun 16th 2008 12:05PM
The only thing wolverines immune system is susceptible to are viruses and poisons of an alien nature. I had this conversation before, it is the reason wolverine could be infected by the brood, and become a Zombie. Also I am pretty sure spiderman gets bit also, so how is he standing against them?
Tim The Enchanter @ Jun 16th 2008 12:18PM
I've seen him recover from viruses. I think it's more the fact that it's alien in origin that caused him to change.
j.howlett @ Jun 16th 2008 1:24PM
i thought wolverine could fight viruses, like he'd get sick for a short while but then get better. didn't they find a cure for the legacy virus like that or was that the cartoon/comic version. its like sometimes he'll bleed alot and other times he'll heal really fast. ever see how mangled he was in that punisher vs wolverine. his face was down to the metal and his balls got blown off. then it was insinuated that the punisher was trapped in the closet.
Dio @ Jun 16th 2008 5:04PM
@Zsavior: I think this might be based on Marvel Zombies vs The Army of Darkness when Peter is able to resist the infection for a while. So maybe we'll see Ash too :D
sicsided @ Jun 15th 2008 11:47PM
after the spider man 3 movie, all I'm going to do in this game is let him get eaten alive.
Gbogdan @ Jun 15th 2008 11:53PM
Haha good idea. That would be way more entertaining to watch than that abomination of a movie.
Oregon Jon @ Jun 15th 2008 11:48PM
T-Rated? Boooo!
Something wonderful and violent and adult could be done with Marvel Zombies, and it could be wonderful, instead there'll probably be another crap spiderman game.
A Pissed-off English Gamer @ Jun 16th 2008 9:12AM
Is Manhunt 2 your favorite game?
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jun 16th 2008 10:33AM
BECAUSE ONLY M-RATED GAMES ARE GOOD!!
Dude, grow up.
chip5541 @ Jun 15th 2008 11:57PM
Oh please bring Ash into the game. Ash rocks. http://www.dynamicforces.com/htmlfiles/p-C107232.html
Marvel Zombies vs AOD
Trickob @ Jun 16th 2008 12:53AM
agreed! I didn't think the "Marvel Zombies" thing could be any cooler and then they brought Ash into it...
Noshino @ Jun 16th 2008 1:30AM
Ash, haha, Hey Fenix, that guy is the real chainsaw user....
Tim The Enchanter @ Jun 16th 2008 11:44AM
Shop smart, shop S-Mart.
Ash is money. You should play Ash in this game!
Ryuukuro @ Jun 16th 2008 12:14AM
No more zombies! Please! I feel like we're all living in a zombie movies except, instead of our ressurrected loved ones, it's this damned concept that keeps eating our brains.
tc @ Jun 16th 2008 8:06AM
haha right on! they should just set this game in WWII and be done with any shred of originality it may have possessed.
George McBain @ Jun 16th 2008 12:17AM
"free swinging environment in war torn Earth, 2149"
I think this all smells a bit fishy because (being a comic nerd here) the part of the Marvel Universe this takes place in is called "Earth-2149" (the main reality for the current comics is "Earth-610") and not the year 2149. It could just be marketing messing up the information, but until I see an official announcement, this makes me think it may be made up.

George McBain @ Jun 16th 2008 12:18AM
"the main reality for the current comics is "Earth-610" "
I mean Earth-616.
Roto13 @ Jun 16th 2008 1:13AM
Yes. That what I was thinking. I saw this story posted on another site earlier today and they said it took place in the year 2149 and I was like "NO YOU IDIOTS! THAT'S THE NUMBER OF THE UNIVERSE! BE COMIC BOOK NERDS!" but the comments system on that site never lets me actually post anything. >_>
BPM [MKWii: 2578 3585 8392] @ Jun 16th 2008 12:19AM
Oh, please let this be true!
There was something oddly damned cool about the Marvel Zombies storyline. A game, if executed right, would be killer.
TomPiltoff @ Jun 16th 2008 12:20AM
BEST PREMISE FOR A GAME EVER.
KeenCommander @ Jun 16th 2008 12:29AM
It's not April 1st, right? Checks, nope. Wow, someone must be really out of ideas. Here's one for you Marvel vs. Everyone else. Wolverine vs. Master Chief FTW!
Carrie @ Jun 16th 2008 12:38AM
Marvel vs. DC vs. Mortal Kombat vs. Smash Bros vs. Pokemon vs. Zombies vs. Robots vs. Pirates vs. Unicorns vs. Dust Bunnies is obviously a better premise.
BPM [MKWii: 2578 3585 8392] @ Jun 16th 2008 2:15AM
You forgot Tatsunoko Productions.
Go, Speed Racer, Go!!!
Bad Mojo @ Jun 16th 2008 10:58AM
With ninjas maybe :P
And for secret weapons.. you could have an epic kitchen sink drop from the sky.
michas_pi @ Jun 17th 2008 12:11AM
My money is on the dust bunnies.
They'll give everyone else asthma.
Joshua @ Jun 16th 2008 12:44AM
I enjoy marvel zombies and I better be able to play as someone other than Spider-Man.
besides hes a member of the damn zombie team anyway, this will be dumb if he is normal.
Roto13 @ Jun 16th 2008 1:13AM
He stays normal longer than most people. xP
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jun 16th 2008 10:39AM
No he doesn't. He's one of the first one's who turn into a Zombie.
kataztrophy @ Jun 16th 2008 12:54AM
If this is true, it's sad that The developer feels the need to lean on Spider Man to help sell the game. The title "Marvel Zombies" should be able to create a buzz alone.
Carlitos Colon @ Jun 16th 2008 1:14AM
I'm calling bullshit on this one. I don't think Marvel would allow it. I could be wrong though.
therpham @ Jun 16th 2008 1:15AM
Aw except it was cool in the comics when Spider-Man knew he was turning into a zombie and he told Mary Jane and Aunt May to hide from him and then he was like "BITCHES IMMA EATCHOO!"
Unless I totally misremembered that.
Roto13 @ Jun 16th 2008 2:45AM
Naw, that's pretty much exactly the way it happened.
T Munster @ Jun 16th 2008 1:34AM
they will screw this series up. Besided spiderman was apart of the marvel zombies. If they wanna do this right make marvel zombies vs. the army of darkness. That would be a sweet game.
BPM [MKWii: 2578 3585 8392] @ Jun 16th 2008 2:16AM
It'll probably be loosely based on the comics, with an alternate story.
LuckyEMS @ Jun 16th 2008 5:46AM
wheres mah World War Hulk game
Wubbytoes @ Jun 16th 2008 6:28AM
Man, I really hope its not really rated T.
