I have always been a fan of zombie films and I am glad that the genre is seeing a resurgence. I think that this Stubbs the Zombie game is going to rock in both original content and graphics presentation. The soundtrack listing is top-notch too! I will buy this for my Mac as soon as it drops.

It is my most optimistic wish that Wideload does not see simultaneous release as the same as Microsoft with Halo and iD with Doom 3, because they suck for releasing months and months later.

Seems like somebody's finally decided to fill the whole left when Bungie sold out. And look! It's Bungie. :P

Looks like my Mac will start to see some gaming again soon. =)

(1) This game sounds like lots of fun.

(2) I hope their meaning of "simultaneous" isn't like ID's about Doom3. (oopsie)

Sounds like fun Wideload!!! I can't wait. Original thinking [for the Mac] and dedication to our platform from the onset means a "win = win" situation for everyone!

I've always been bummed that Resident Evil never made it to the Mac, so this will fill my need to deal with the undead. Even better, I'll get to be a zombie so that I can better understand their motivations and empathize with their plight by getting inside their heads...

Oops! There's nothing in there! Why? They're frickin' zombies that's why!!!

Way to use your... ahem... brains... Wideload!

hello Duane Johnson.
as you and i know Apple updates OpenGL in OS X.

i know the 10.4 OpenGL is allot better optimized but still for Nvidia cards their rubish mainly because Nvidia don't do anything on the drivers, Ati drivers do get some work from Ati but this is also mainly done by Apple.

OpenGL+Ati= Slow Performance Doom3.
the Ati X800 is a fast card but their software sucks, Nvidia have shown ati on the PC that Software is as important as the Video card itself.

The zombies in Quake 1 throw chunks of rotting flesh torn out of their sides or off their heads. So it's not an original concept.

However I liked the screen shot of the "weapon view" camera following the thrown severed arm!

Can't wait for this game, it seams to be so freaking awesome!
Although I hope that they have improved the Halo engine performance wise otherwise this game will run like crap on many computers (like Halo does (did?))

It's the Jerks that made people slow to adopt Everquest on Macintosh, and it'll be the jerks yet again who ruin Mac first development.

Yah!!! You have done it again...

I have a feeling that this is one of those "sounds stupid, plays great" sort of games. Sounds wacky, can't wait!

Heh... Punchbowl, PA? Is there actually such a place in this state? ;-)

Congratulations to Wideload on the announcement of their first game, "Stubbs the Zombie, Rebel Without a Pulse". This games sounds like a hoot. I knew those guys would deliver with innovation and humor!

I smell an Halloween rat! :-)

I want to point out one huge difference between Stubbs development process & MacHalo. The lack of GearBox & it's PC Halo port. We are working on both the PC & Mac versions of Stubbs, side by side with Wideload.

Not to mention Apple, ATI & nVidia are continuing to improve the OpenGL drivers.

Halo runs like crap no matter what comp you put it on.

Some of the reactions here are disgusting. Mac gamers are in no position to be jaded like this. Here's an innovative x-plat game by dudes who have worked miracles for the Mac community, and there are still douches who trash it? Sad.

The game sounds good, but the Halo engine runs like crap on Macs with nVidia hardware. I hope they are going to release this disk as a hybread.

An Ed Wood style 1950's B-movie? Sounds like fun. I'm glad somebody is taking the FPS genre in new directions. The typical "one man with a gun against the world" storyline is getting old.

I can see why a game like this wouldn't be for everyone, but to me, the concenpt seems original and hysterical. I'm excited about the idea, but will have to wait and see how well it's implemented.

wow, have a little faith. These guys have certainly delivered in the past. I have high expectations for the game.

I'm surprised how jaded Mac gamers are! Finally an original game is coming out for the Mac at the same time as xbox & pc and people think its lame? You'd think we're getting Mac-first/original games every day!

It sounds funny to me!

Wow. A humorous zombie game. Gee. Looks like fun. Can't wait.

Yawn. ZZZZzzzzz........

At least it's not another stupid war game. If I hear the terms "tactical combat" again I'll puke. Enough with the bowing down to the flag already. At least this game looks like it may actually have a sense of humor.

Halo didn't run like crap on my QS.

Created using the Halo engine, so it'll run like total crap.

Zombies? How incredibly lame.

Sounds so retarded "new Mac-friendly developer" I knew this sounded too good to be true!

:D
Looks like a fun game, can't wait.
Interesting to see it come out on mac, pc and xbox.

Oh, I cant wait for this game to come out.
braaaiinn....

Mmmm.. Zombies..

Ah, summer 2005, when Tiger comes out!
