Herd of Cats

It is possible that the Super Secret Zombie LAN might be today

Might be.

Shhhh!

Yes, Call of Duty: World at War

With Nazi Zombie Army about to release Graybush and I went back to the beginning of zombie mode. Nacht Der Untoten. And it was good. We weren't but it was.

Apparently with all our time on the Xbox One playing Ghosts we forgot how to zombie mode.

Der Riese was just as disappointing as we only reached round nine.

Darn that Coxxorz for getting there first. Darn him to heck!

Officially tweetd by Rebellion and everything.

So stop waiting and buy it now! Some of you more than others...

So we have pretty much killed this topic after dragging it out well past its lifespan but, hey, that is what we do. Welcome to Herd of Cats. I thought I was done with mocking Q-Bert (over this) but then Rebellion released this awesome concept art and the comic popped right into my mind. Where, face it, there isn't a lot of space so I had to get it out.

It was improved drastically through my usual revision process which you may know as Coxxorz.

And for information purposes only, Zombie Army Trilogy released today

Rebellion has tweeted out a reminder for tomorrow

Zombie Army Trilogy? Never heard of it.

None the less, both Rebellion and our countdown clock say it will be available in 24 hours. Technically less now as I am slow to get started this morning. Stupid Sega Nite.

Additional Reminder: Make sure you have the necessary MS dollars in your Xbox account as it is only available digitally in Canada. Expected price is $49.99.

I'm pretty humbled to be included in this group as I am a fan of some of them myself.
I made the top 10 finalists

I would appreciate a vote and share

You had to ask...

It's not that we don't want Q-Bert for our Super Secret Zombie LAN Club, it's that we don't need Q-Bert for our Super Secret Zombie LAN Club. Really. Want vs. need. That's all it is.

Based on all our abuse following Q-Bert's dismay at being left off the guest list for the Super Secret Zombie LAN. A lot of people were left of that list but Q-Bert is the only one we chose to pick on.

I thought I was being smart using my PC Points until...

Me: "Wait? Why are you charging me more than $40 for the MS Cards?"

Them: "Taxes."

Me: "Umm, they are gift cards. You shouldn't be charging taxes on gift cards. I will being paying taxes when I use them on my Xbox."

Them: (after checking with a manager) "No that's the price."

So, I did get them to understand that they shouldn't be charging taxes, however I could not get them to not charge taxes.

And while I will still buy groceries at Loblaws I think I have given up on their electronics department.

They are training me to shop elsewhere.

Tomb Raider for the Xbox 360 is now free for Gold Members

All I can say is go get it now. I was amazed by how good this game was when I first played it. I have nothing but good memories about Tomb Raider and I have been watching the price of the Definitive Edition for Xbox One. When it drops low enough I was planning on picking it up. Yes, again.

The Xbox 360 version is scoring 87.41% at Game Rankings, 86% at MetaCritic.

"It's Lara Croft!"

Australian pig steals 18 beers, gets drunk, fights cow

Seriously, you can not make this stuff up.

From The Guardian: "In the middle of the night these people camping opposite us heard a noise, so they got their torch out and shone it on the pig and there he was, scrunching away at their cans," said the visitor, who estimated that the pig had consumed 18 beers.

"Then he went and raided all the rubbish bags. There were some other people camped right on the river and they saw him being chased around their vehicle by a cow."

After the cow fight this pig became my new hero.

Cause we can all afford to be ripped off a little more

I have already cut back on the games I buy. This just makes it worse.

From VG24/7: As spotted by HardcoreGamer, the local Canadian branches of Amazon and EB Games have raised the prices of upcoming games to CAD$75.

The CAD$5 increasing comes within a year of prices hitting the CAD$70 point.

CAD$75 (£38/€53) currently exchanges for $60, the standard US pricing. The change is likely due to to fluctuation in currency value, but since that doesn’t mean local wages go up, from a consumer perspective it’s just less cash in their pockets.

If they video game publishers actually made consistently good and bug free games on release I wouldn't mind so much but they don't! I am getting sick of paying to Beta Test games. I think I am back to waiting for price drops before buying. Except for Zombie Army Trilogy which I am totally buying on release day!

Enough! Can we just get the game already!

Note: once again I didn't watch the entire video as I don't want too many spoilers.

Just a reminder posted by Rebellion

Or you could just look at our COUNT DOWN CLOCK!!!!

Leonard Nimoy passed away today. It almost seems unreal. Star Trek has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Spock was always my favourite character. I remember getting 'Spock ears' for Christmas as a kid and learning to perform the Vulcan greeting with both hands.
