Revisiting Zombie Chronicles: Zombie Verrückt

Game: Call of Duty World at War. Map: Zombie Verrückt

In an article yesterday I read about a Playstation player who missed playing the original Zombie Chronicles maps once he retired his PS3. This lead me to realize how lucky we were to have backwards compatibility on the Xbox One. Compatibility that included the three Call of Duty games that included the Original zombie maps. While waiting for the Xbox release of Zombie Chronicles I decided this would be the ideal chance to revisit the original maps in their original forms. One player, one attempt... How bad could it be?

Number two: Zombie Verrückt

Okay. Technically 6 is better than 5. Just not much better. I think I should have rethought this one attempt deal and gone with a best of three. Too late now...

Strangely I discovered that according to the game this map is called Zombie Verrückt. For some reason I had always assumed it was just Verrückt but there it is in the screenshot: Zombie Verrückt. Huh, who knew?

So I found a perk machine but it wasn't on. Something about power. Too my surprise I did manage to turn on the power eventually. I also had my favourite weapon, the Trench Gun and an MP40 from the Tickle Trunk. I never manage to purchase quick revive which turned out to be my undoing when I got trapped by too many zombies while reloading. Trapped in the hallway outside the kitchen.

Round 6. Still embarrassing.

Hopefully at some point I will make it to double digits. Solo play has never been my thing with zombie mode and it (and rust) are definitely showing.

Again, I had hoped for better. Let's hope that change comes with Shi No Numa...
