Zombies!!! for XBLA shambling in Spring 2011

kinda looking forward to this, even though I've never seen it lol, anything with zombies is fun

SCORE! I played this game (the board game, not the XBLA version) at PAX East for the first time and my friends and I loved it. This will be an extremely tempting day one purchase for me.

Wow, never thought I'd hear of this game again. Awesome.

I bought this for a mate a few years back, and played it twice. We had fun, but it turns out the rest of my friends hate tabletop games, so never played it again.

Sweet! Though a September / October release date seems it would make more sense. I'm a fan of seasonal releases, ala Costume Quest.

Definitely looking forward to this...never had a chance to play the game but definitely want to. Hopefully it has online multi (come to think of it local multi makes no sense) instead of just versus AI

When I first got into board games 2-3 years ago, I was all over this game. Then I realised how completely devoid of strategy it was.

All "special action" cards can be used at any time, and the goal of the game is to reach the helicopter square before the other players. So it all boils down to waiting for the other players to get close to it, and throw some crappy card their way to move them in the wrong direction, or respawn at the starting square, or spawn a million zombies around them.

It's fun for a couple of games, but there's no depth, no strategy, too much luck involved when fighting zombies (think Risk)...

With the amount of good board games on XBLA, I wouldn't bother with this one.

My two cents!

man i absolutely love the board game, i don't have any of the expansions (there are a ton) but i have had so much fun with just the basic starter version, looking forward to how this one will turn out!

Ha ha, Microsoft, is there a bandwagon you will not ride?

I bought the game and a starter pack or two didn't actually get a chance to play it. My friends who played board games with me went out of town for school. Then, by the time I found new people to try it with I had lost the starter game (but have some cards and a giant bag of zombies...)

I will give this one a try!

I wonder if this version takes just as long to play.

Now all we need are XBLA versions of FFG's big box games like Twilight Imperium and Descent.

I LOVE ZOMBIES!! xD
