If you're a horror fan and a gamer then you already know about the zombie goodness launching this Tuesday on Xbox 360 for Call of Duty: Black Ops titled "Call of the Dead" starring Danny Trejo, Robert Englund, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Michael Rooker, and George A. Romero. In the mail today we got an incredible promotional one-sheet that we needed to share.

Two words here people ... Holy and Shit! Remember that last story when I wrote it's getting harder and harder to surprise us? Well I am eating those very words yet again! Word has come down regarding the new Zombie DLC for Call of Duty: Black Ops and when you read it you may just die yourself! From the Press Release

A new trailer and poster has hit our offices for the latest sequel looking to climb its way to the top of the horror gaming mountain, Prototype 2 is here and we've got the goods for ya as per usual. From the Press Release:

Even though the Call of Duty franchise is mainly a combat-based first-person shooter, the robust zombie mode that can be found on Call of Duty: Black Ops is pretty damned impressive for genre fans. To say it's robust is a bit of an understatement, but it sounds as if Activision has something really special planned for zombie fans in the next bit of DLC.

Know what we love here at Dread Central? Getting the mail! You just never know what you're going to find. Case in point ... recently we got an unmarked prep package for the upcoming Activision video game Prototype 2. Dig on what we found inside below. From the Press Release:

The original Prototype features just about everything we could want in a video game. Zombies. Super powers. The ability to drop an elbow on a tank after leaping off of a skyscraper. Yep. That's the good stuff. With Prototype 2 on tap for next year, Activision has blessed us with a truly graceful new trailer. Dig it! From the Press Release:

Zombies, super powers, and the ability to karate kick a moving helicopter out of the sky. Yep, there's not much more we want out of a video game, and in this quick teaser for Prototype 2 that's exactly what we get. From the Press Release

Activision Publishing, Inc., and developer Treyarch announced today the release of the Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies soundtrack. Available through all the major digital media retailers, the Zombies soundtrack features for the first time, in their entirety, 17 original tracks composed by Treyarch for the wildly popular Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies game mode.

One of our favorite games from last year was the zombie infested open world game, Prototype. As always, you just can't keep a good ghoul down as Activision has officially announced a sequel and even provided a trailer to whet your monstrous appetite. From the Press Release

Updated: Added some Images from Zombie Mode.

Updated: Added Instructions To Access Zombie Mode. SPOILER ALERT. For Realsies. Don't come here yelling "AW, YOU RUINED IT!!!" because you've been warned. Okay, ready?

Welly well well, darlings. It seems there's a new racing game with a twist coming to the Xbox 360 and PS3 this fall titled Blood Drive, and it is being touted as "Shaun of The Dead meets Mad Max meets Death Race" (the ORIGINAL, I'm hoping).

The time for gamers to blow the piss out of the Nazi undead is right around the corner, and to celebrate this gore-soaked occasion, Activision has dropped the official Wolfenstein launch trailer on us!!

With the release of Wolfenstein just around the corner, Activision has seen fit to drop a pretty nifty behind-the-scenes video on us for you guys to dig on!

Hmmm ... let's see. Left 4 Dead four levels of Zombie mayhem. Call of Duty: World at War four levels of Zombie mayhem. Sadly, no matter how much we love L4D, we have to concede that with the addition of the new Zombie map “Der Riese”, COD:WaW levels the playing field a bit in terms of pure co-op against the living dead fun.
