That happened to me a few times. If you don't have "News Room Contributor" under your title nobody cares.DJ_DEnM said:
George Romero To Appear In New Black Ops Zombie Level

Look! The only good part of the modern Call of Duty games just got much more awesome. Everything is better with Danny Trejo. I don't have Black Ops, but I'd get it for this. If I had a good computer.
Ok, taking a moment to be controversial. I know we are all supposed worship Romero for "Night of the Living Dead" and the creation of the modern zombie film, but outside of that, his career seems kinda mediocre to me. Am I just too hard on him? Nearly all his films are zombie films, even some that aren't, and mostly they are exactly the same: people cut-off from safety by zombie horde. Maybe insert some commentary on society, maybe not. In the last 10-15 years, the new movies are worse and worse, and the rest are just remakes of the old movies. This is not a person that feels the need to stretch his talent.
Even schlockmeisters like Roger Corman seem bold and daring compared to him. Corman's movies may be generally so-so, every so often their are really good, his schooled alot of our great directors, etc, and no one can accuse him of repeating himself for 40 years straight.
If Romero hadn't done that first movie, would we even bother with him?
Just stirring the pot. Thanks for your time.

So... you're willing to pay 1/2 price (at max) for 1/5/th of the content being offered? If you break it down evenly, it'd be $3 for each thing separately. I definitely wouldn't pay more than that for one map in this case.0p3rati0n said:
This, a thousand times this. I'm a huge zombie fanatic, and I could never get into Romero's films, still can't.tcurt said:
But anyways, as much as I dislike Treyarch's zombie mode (run around figuring things out/find a good corner to camp in, done) this really makes me wanna buy this map pack, simply because I have the biggest Man-crush on Danny Trejo.
I suggest you take a look at Moviebob's recommendation list for non-zombie Romero movies.tcurt said:

And yes I think you are being too hard on him, without the Dead films, this world would be a far bleaker place than this. If you want something deep and thought provoking, I would suggest staying away from Romero.
Honestly, if I still played Black Ops, I possibly would buy the map pack just for the zombie map... possibly, not probably...0p3rati0n said:
No, wasn't Rob Zombie. Sounds like some 80's hair metal band that I don't recognize.HankMan said:
At first I said "Oh geez, Left 4 Dead rip off" because it was 4 dudes and one chick, who strangely resembled the original L4D crew. Then I heard that Danny Trejo was in it and I went "O.O"......if I didn't hate Activision I might consider getting this...
