The Characters of Zombie Army Trilogy #1: Karl Fairburne
- Karl Fairburne
OSS Operative
Focused and fearless. Unmatched with a sniper rifle.
Spent most of the war operating behind enemy lines. Not used to working in a team but willing to adapt if circumstances require it. For example, if confronted by millions of bloodthirsty Nazi Zombies.
Via the Zombie Army Trilogy manual which leaked online (I am posting in dribs and drabs to milk it for content).
The only thing scarier than Nazi or Exo zombies...
Parkour Zombies!
Dying Light
Pretty cool looking zombie game.

Stupid exo-zombies. Now I have to dig through the couch for enough change to pick up the season pass...
HoC Xbox One Game Recommendation #7: Sniper Elite 3
All the coverage of Zombie Army Trilogy made me remember something
Sniper Elite 3 was released for the Xbox One. I had forgotten. Both Coxxorz and I grabbed our copies for the Xbox 360 and proceeded to enjoy them. We played a significant portion of the campaign cooperatively. I also managed to play the entire campaign single player and gathered most of the collectibles.
Note that Sniper Elite 3 did not reach AAA status despite it's best efforts but if you are interested in WWII Africa or sniper games in general then you should pick this up.
More info on the upcoming Zombie Army Trilogy
I don't care about you guys, I wanted to know more
Let's start off with the priority. When I first read available 2015 I automatically assumed the worst with a November or December release date. Turns out I was wrong. The Official release date as posted on Steam is March 6, 2015. I also noticed one site stating first quarter 2015 which matches the March release date. One problem, of course, March 6th appears to be a Friday. Console releases tend to be on Tuesdays. Which means March 10th is more likely.
Everything I have read states that Rebellion will be self-publishing Zombie Army Trilogy which makes sense. That is how they published Nazi Zombie Army 1 and 2 through Steam. I suspect this means we won't be seeing boxed copies and will be downloading it through the Xbox Store. I did read a reference to Zombie Army Trilogy being available through the PSN Store which seems to back this up.
Nazi Zombie Army Trilogy coming to consoles!!!!
I may be so happy about this that I did a little dance. May have. And it may have been ugly.
The Trilogy will include the previously released on PC only Nazi Zombie Army 1 and Nazi Zombie Army 2 as well as an all new Nazi Zombie Army 3.
From Rebellion:
Zombie Army Trilogy is a terrifyingly intense third person shooter set in a gruesome alternate vision of World War II.
Berlin 1945. Facing defeat at the hands of the Allies, Hitler has unleashed one last unholy gamble - a legion of undead super soldiers that threatens to overwhelm the whole of Europe. Fight alone or team up to save humanity from the zombie menace in this apocalyptic shooter for 1-4 players!
Releasing for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

I think Captain America took a wrong turn at Albuquerque
I like the way Moricerevek's mom calls him mid-game.
NOTE: Call of Duty Online is exclusive to China. How come they get to keep all the new zombies to themselves!
HoC Random Zombie Hands of the Day - 01052015
Something about this Xbox One Gamerpic seemed familiar
So the image on the left is from a Xbox One Friend's user profile. When I first spotted it two days ago I thought something seemed familiar.
The image on the right is from a Herd of Cats' post. The Dig and Play LAN invite from April 2009.
I am not trying to claim copyright or necessarily any ownership. Just pointing out that Herd of Cats got there first. Five years ago. So there, Microsoft, so there.
I am also not suggesting that a zombie hand holding a controller is extremely original or anything and I am aware that our version is mostly copy and pasted from clip art. Deal with it.
