New XBLA Zombie Survial Game. Zombies Zombies Zombies!

We love us some Zombie games. Always have, and I'm pretty sure we always will. Microsoft Game Studios and Undead Labs are joining forces to create an online Zombie survival game. The game, currently labeled Class3 is going to be quite a challenge for the developers. They have huge visions, and they want this game too be more than a simple online run and gun.

This XBLA project is going to push the limits and change the way we think about an online game. The producers don't want this to be your typical kill this, get this go here, do this; they have ideas much bigger than that. In the developers blog, he goes on to say that this is going to be an online world unlike one we have seen before. It will be an evolving, changing world triggered by events players initiate. Your goal isn't to be the one who kills the most, but the one who survives. Whether you decide to survive on your own, have a small band of friends, or create an army to fight off the living dead, the goal is to live. Class3, apparently is going to be something the devs use really gauge our feedback as gamers, perfect whats wrong, and then create what the developer calls Class4. They really have huge ideas for this game, and if they can pull it off, it should be epic, go check out the dev site, and read it for your self.

Personally, this game could suck hard: because they didn't quite meet the goals they wanted, it could be awesome: because they do achieve their grand ideas, or its too grandiose, and it dies before we see it. I'm hopeful, this should be fun to keep an eye on. What do you think?
