Everyone is going zombie mad. A friend just told me that GTA4 is going to have zombies as it's 360 exclusive content, sound like BS to me, but he's been right before.
That would be so awesome. I'd lock myself in a room for three days and improvise all kind of wicked scenarios.
"Get to da choppa": While on foot, make it from the western island to Brucie's chopper.
"Survival mode": Come get some you zombie mu'a'fu'as.
And so on. It would probably need modes made specifically for it to not lose its novelty right fast, and the game might sputter and die with all the zombies on screen (or - even worse - they'll just have a very underwhelming zombie horde) but all in all, a zombie invasion and a whole city to run around? Where's the catch? That I might die of sleep deprivation? Pushaw.

I'll show those Violet Eye bastards what they get for not giving me a new signet!

So will this be a permanent thing? or just a little stunt? Because its quite fun, although I feel if it goes on too long, it will just get annoying.

Its to promote the upcoming Wrath expansion, like how prior to TBC demons attacked. I don't think its permanent, and the storyline will probably follow to the source of the infliction, which is - of course - Northrend.

Sounds like fun. Though I wont go as far as reactivating my account for this, that game has already taken 3 years of my life, with constant quitting, followed by withdrawal, followed by joining again :(

I've been clean for a month and a half now :)

Yeah I knew it was a promotion thing, but I didn't play prior to TBC, would be kinda funny though if it was a permanent thing.

Ok i mnot sure if anybody has posted anything yet but as me being a massive wow geek i thought id enlighten some of yous, This so called zombie invision has ended last night so no more zombie fun (though new kara boss will still be arround for a while) The whole story about these zombies is infact the scourge army controlled by Aratha the new lich king. The scourge army was orginaly controlled by the first lich king who was empowered by the Burning legion to help take over the world and kind of killing everything before they got here but the then lich king was angry of how they had condemed him and tried to break free of thier control and was imprisoned in a throne of ice. Then came along arathas who in his first for power wanted to deafeat the scourge army and get rid of his father who at the time was king and become the ruler of azaroth. Arathas killed his father and came across the ice throne and the corrupted blade ice mounre wich turned him evil and he took control of the scourge army that is now attacking all major cities. well i think that covered most important things if i missed anything or anybody wants to know more deatials feel free to message me.

For a self-confessed WoW geek that writing was horrible. "Ice mourne"? Really?

So if you get turned into a zombie, the only way out is to die or be healed. Aren't zombies already dead? How can you kill that which has no life? (10 points for those who get the reference)

It was such a fun event. the streets of all the major citys were littered with zombie corpses... So many whiners though which was a shame.

Indeed. And a few bits muddled up too. *has been a fan of warcraft since orcs and humans*

I personally don't play WoW, but my brother does.

And he doesn't mind this whole Zombie Invasion thing going on, but according to him, the forums do. And how they absolutely hate it with a passion. That you're flagged for everyone to come and kill you.

It's not that big of a deal, just die and become unflagged.

Agreed. I cringed at that as well.

Easily one of the best world events ever. I was kiting vast swathes of them around IF. So much fun. Anyone remember the first Scourge invasions? When Faxmonkey single handedly got a cap on AoE damage installed after soloing a whole invasion?
