The Fort Zombie trailer that should have stayed buried
Excited about Fort Zombie, the lite action/RPG zombie survival game from the folks who made sci-fi strategy game Sword of the Stars? You won't be after you watch the trailer. Ouch.
You'll be able to not buy Fort Zombie when it's released on Halloween.

I've seen better clips from random people on YouTube.
This is one of those cases they should have let a beta tester with a copy of FRAPs handle it instead of their marketing department.
I love how it starts with an jump ("Wow, you can jump in this game?!") followed by fumbling with a doorknob. Yeah, that says *play value*.

Looks like an updated Bad Day LA.

Looks like fun to me, if it isn't actually as choppy as shown. It's an open world zombie game, it's all I've ever asked for and I don't care if it looks like it's from the 1940's, it's a good idea, fun implementation it appears and I'mma give them money.

The graphics & animation are obviously poor, but there are a lot of great old games that look worse. Deus Ex, for instance may have better design, but in terms of fidelity, I'd have to say this beats it. What really awful, though, is how choppy it looks. I mean if you can't even get it running smoothly in your demo vid, what hope do end users have?

Looks a Game of the Year to me. Yeah, " In the YEAR TWO-THOUSAND" said La Bamba.

Wow, just wow. The graphics alone are forgiveable. Lots of great games have fairly bad graphics by todays standards. But with graphics that poor the frame rate is criminal.

At least show Kerberos' actual trailer.

The animations could still use some polish but it doesn't look anywhere near as bad as that other trailer makes it look.

It looks like one of those fake video game mock ups made by an art department for a movie or tv show.

I didn't really like the "real" trailer much better. One thing in it did interest me though. It looked like the player had two small kids helping him, almost like pets. What was up with that? Are they really kids? The player stays back and shoots while the kids run up and kick at the zombies. Really kind of odd.
