A defend the fort style game could be good, I can't think I've actually played anything like that before against NPC's online with other players, let alone co-op.

A poor yet promising attempt to dethrone Left 4 Dead?

L4D is slightly different in concept afaict, more running to somewhere and less defending something.

Marketing: Right guys, feedback isn't good from the general public, we need a way to increase peoples interest in the game due to COD3. Any ideas?
Developer #1: We could put more footage of the flamethrower out?
Marketing: Done that to death.
Dev #2: *wakes up from nightmare* ZOMBIESSSSSSSSSS!
Marketing: Hmmm, kind of left 4 dead style?
Dev #2: Erm, yes...

Zombies are always a crowd pleaser, even Saints row 2 has a cheeky zombie side game in there. Sure as hell beats the Vietnam craze game developers seemed to go through a few years back.

And yet the over-an-hour maps are not given by more running, just more defending. You cannot run if you're surrounded.

It is a defend against attack thing. Dunno if there's more than one map narf, maybe have to beat it to get another map.

You get points, points let you buy guns and expand the ruined building so you can get more guns. You can repair barricades for points too. Zeds drop powerups like instakill, ammo refills or points multipliers.

These zombies will please doggers, they are slow and hard to kill without a headshot, blowing their legs of with a 'nade merely makes them crawl toward you. It's easy to get overwhelmed and scared shitless of where to run whilst reloading. Stabbing them just makes them groan at you or smash your face in.

This is my best score so far, my heart was going a bit as I succumbed to the horde after this.
