WATCH ZOMBIES DEVOUR WASHINGTON WITH GOOGLE MAPS

Written by Jon Gutierrez / 11.24.09

Class 3 OutbreakThere’s something truly breathtaking about a giant horde of zombies. There’s beauty to be found in a whole gaggle (What’s the term for multiple zombies? a bunch?, a swarm? a romero?) of zombies coming over a hill to devour brains. It can really take your breath away. That is, if it’s not your brains.

And that’s what the free Zombie Outbreak Simulator game gives you: the chance to watch other people get mobbed by a bunch of zombies…in a google maps version of Washington DC.

Developed by Binary Space, an Australian Flash game developer, the game lets you choose such variables as the number of zombies, civilians and policemen, whether civilians are armed and even how long infection takes. Then you start up the invasion and watch up to 2,000 zombies swarm all over our nation’s capital. Binary Space’s website says that the game’s a teaser for Class 3 Outbreak, a real-time-strategy game where you control police trying to fight zombie outbreaks on google maps. Hey, if we can fight brain-munchin’ zombies in Times Square or Disney World, count us in.

    I suggest the official name for a group of zombies be called a “televised awards show”. Braindead assholes without the faintest ability to make a rational decision? C’mon, it’s perfect!

    Agreed, Donkey. And if there are a group of survivors being engulfed by a “televised awards show” we can call them the orchestra pit.

    Set this game to a soundtrack by the Fat Boys and I’m in.

    Anybody else seeing this and wishing (like I am) that the game in question will allow you to target specific politicos with the TAS of zombies?

    A horde of zombies? I thought it was a Rob Pattinson sighting at the Hot Topic!

    Erswi, I’ll let the TAS take out every remaining Republican if I can turn them on Pelosi. Deal?

    *as Palin and Pelosi get ready to square off in the octagon, Big John McCarthy only notices at the last moment the pinless Klingon grenade that has been tossed inside the ring…*
