    The world doesn't take these zombie threats anywhere near seriously enough, if you ask me.

    I don't think Re5 even needs any marketing. It can be release tommorow and still sell.

    I saw someone on one of the chans talking about this about a week ago and how you can do it. It involved a universal username and password for getting in if I do recall.

    That said, I'm sure Capcom is appreciative of the residual publicity.

    Your sister site, Gizmodo, had an article up last week on how to actually hack these signs, and was using the "zombies ahead" banner as an example.

    @Patrick Henry: Nah, you're not the only one. I think that now that we have Left 4 Dead, we've got the most we can get out of the zombie fad. Resident Evil 5 might even be pushing it, in my opinion, with Dead Rising: Chop 'Till You Drop definitely doing so.


    Vampires on the other hand, I have a larger issue with. I just don't think that any media is properly representing them, and their inclusion in anything recent has NEVER been significant.

    @riffleraffle: That's hilarious!


    The best bit:

    "In all likelihood, the crew will not have changed [the password]. However if they did, never fear. Hold "Control" and "Shift" and while holding, enter "DIPY". This will reset the sign and reset the password to "DOTS" in the process. You're in!"

    It also warned of nazi zombies, so it's possible whoever did it was drawing inspiration for CoD: World at War.
