The biggest gaming fan expo in the Northeast just concluded and this year was as big, if not bigger, than year’s past. There were lots of different games to play on the show floor.

With that pedigree, you wouldn’t fault many if you thought this team might be working on the next MMO or music game but instead they’ve decided to tackle a faction-based strategy game.
World Zombination takes place on a global scale in a shared persistent world where cities are constantly under siege. On the world map, players can choose such locations as London, Hong Kong, Boston, New York, etc. As far as cities and missions you could choose from, the options seemed to be vast.
