    PC gamers dont buy this shit. Since since the beginning of time they have always been free.


    They will come out on the PC when they are finally free. Since they cant get away with them being free on PC and still selling the console ones.

    They should play a real zombie game like L4D :O


    I bought the first COD4 map pack, but after the fact that I think I couldn't really search for the specific map (I'd only randomly be connected to it) and that they weren't that impressive...I've yet to touch a map pack for COD4 again.

    1) This is CoD: WaW. Not 4. There only WAS one map pack for 4.


    2) No, a *real* zombie game would be Dead Rising. *Real* (and I use that term loosely) don't run, they shuffle around and munch on dead bodies.


    I do love Left 4 Dead though. Just taking the 'play a real zombie game!' to another level. :)

    Well, if someone did sell zombies as toys/pets (kinda like a Tomagotchi, but more like 'Zombigotchi'. :D), I expect massive product recalls. Yes.

    @Kelinor: Best part:

    The magic system is based on the use of Skittles candy. M&M Mars licensed use of their candy but maintained some editorial control upon the game. One requirement was to "remove all the snakes from the game." When asked for clarification, they said that there could be snake-like creatures, but no actual snakes.

    A long time ago, in a gameing universe far far away.


    Devs used to give these away for free, as a token of appreciation for buying their games.


    Oh wait, Epic still does, and gave practically an expansion (UT3 Titan Pack). I wish all did this.


    What ever happened to advertisers will bring you these packs for free, with their fees paid? Instead, they take advertisers money, and still sell the packs.

    @nworobes:


    I think a lot has to do with the fact that PC gaming has tons of user made maps, some of which that are better than most "official" ones. Thus they need not purchase things like that.

    @EnigmaNemesis: Umm. It's Microsoft that makes the rules. They MUST charge for map packs/DLC. PC gets DLC for free because it comes from the developers themselves. When you get DLC on Xbox, it filters through Microsoft. And it's very rare that they allow free DLC. So quit bitching about the devs ripping you off and turn your annoying rant toward those who deserve it - Microsoft.

    Zombie saturation can only be achieved by a full on zombie apocalypse, and only then when entire human race has been turned.

    @DocSeuss: In several parts of L4D, they are referred to as zombies. And if your argument is that they "aren't dead". Well who says they didn't die and come back to life? When do you ever see a normal person become an "infected" in that game?


    So anyway. They are zombies.

    @dowingba: the literature states that they are living humans, not dead ones come back to life. They are referred to as zombies by characters who have no clue what's actually happening, and don't really understand.


    Of course, people will continue to call them zombies because hey, we're humanity and we love to stick to conventions whenever possible to remain as comfortable in our ignorance as we can :)
