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.

so is this what those pictures of the wartorn landscape with the webbed together buildings was about? That would be pretty cool.
Additionally, I prefer the single character games because they usually have a better chance of getting him right, as opposed to having to strip him down to allow for development of more characters. I've always enjoyed the web-swinging spiderman games, though the combat could be more refined.

Series is stupid, how did Iron Man become a zombie? I mean all he had to do was stay in the damn suit and he woulda been fine.

Well, if you actually read the comic, you'd know that the disease affected everything, Machine or flesh.

Even being a zombie and headless, Cyclops still sucks.

Do want.
Magneto chase scene + Red Skull owning Captain America = win

The only thing I don't understand is, Why Spiderman? It would make more sense if the Zombies(like they did in the comics) attack other universes and Spider-man and other Heroes take on the zombies. I mean I understand Spidey's name helps sell units, but it's kinda ridiculous that he should be the only one fighting them.

What's next? A game based around the exploits of Raptor Jesus?
...actually that would be kind of awesome.

Spiderman was a zombie in the comics too. Every superhero except Magnito was.

Spider-Man is a Zombie in the book before too long...
He is one of the last heroes to turn though, but I mean COME ON!
Oh, and ASH (army of darkness) cameo please?
*for those that don't know, the 2nd book is "Marvel Zombies VS Army of Darkness"*

I guess they're not following the comic. MZ series 1 had Spidey as a zombie with one leg hanging by some skin. I never read MZ 2. Didn't Black Panther survive for a while?

Agreed this would've worked great with MUA2 instead of just another Spidey Friend or Foe clone.

Marvel Zombies was LAME, but I would still play the game.
