Look at the developer history I tread with much caution.

I've been so interested in this ever since the first tease we saw back in 2007.

It didn't show much at all, but I've been anxious to see more since. Goddamn it took them 3-4 years for something new.

Even though the new trailer is entirely in CGI, it definitely blew everyone away because of how things were portrayed; family getting pwned by zombies. I hope to hear more of this soon

Oh wow, I totally missed it. Deep Silver made Cursed Mountain?

Excitement in pants +1.+1.+1.

Character Names:
Xian Mei (a staff member at the hotel)
Logan (a surfer)
Sam B (a former rapper)
Purna. (eh IDK)

All four are in the ‘Hero’ category and they’re immune to the infection. The classes of the heroes include Tank, Leader, Assassin, and Jack of all trades; Each having different skills and advantages.

There will be types of ‘special infected’ that are different/stronger than the rest. And weapons will be seen decaying with more use, which is awesome. You can also make electric weapons, with wires, batteries, and tape. So the concept of ‘Creativity Kills’ from Dead Rising carries on? I guess.

It will be playable with up to 4 players, like Borderlands, characters can be duped when playing. Not really liking that idea, but this game is sounding promising.

I hear you, this was the game that almost convinced me to buy an Xbox, until it was cancelled of course.

[Vito]

it was never cancelled.

Ah Im so happy to see that this game is still being made! I remember me and my mate getting insanely hyped up over this and that was after watching the teaser back in 2007.
This has to be one of the best adverts I have ever seen! you reall actually feel for the family that have just been so brutally torn apart.
I am aware that the game will not look like this but im hoping that this trailer is giving us a look into the heart of the games narrative because that trailer was quite moving.
Also I loved! the Shaun of the Dead spoof and found it funny that a scene from what is a comedy (black humour though it may be) can actually be made to look quite deep.

Since I heard from it n 2007 I haven't let go of the game, I liked the idea from the beginning, I don't even know why looking forward to it
And... THE TRAILER IS THE BEST VIDEOGAME TRAILER EVER MADE

[Rancid Cheese]

Heard a bit about this SO long ago and just dismissed it as Far Cry:Outbreak or more suitably: Left 4 Far Cry I guess, trailers quite powerful having it in chronological order but wth the family footage after the title would've worked too but as powerful as it is with the Savalas music the game needs to be too . . . guess we'll see later this year . . .
