So what are the pros of being a game Zombie?

Euphoric | April 23, 2008 | News | PC Playstation 3 
Game Daily has published an article outlining the best things about being a Zombie in video games. Including the amount of spare time to not feeling pain, this interesting take on horror games should be an amusing and lighthearted eye opener into the life of a game zombie.
Tons of free time
Zombies don't roll out of bed at 6:30am, catch the train and take orders from an idiot. Nope, they just stand around, chillin'. Say what you will about their physical appearances, but not having to work is enough for us to roll up our sleeves, run up to the nearest undead creature and say, "bite me."


Diseases don't matter
Being infected with the zombie germ lets you laugh in the face of Ebola, flesh-eating bacteria and whatever nastiness one may contract. If anything, it just lets you combine diseases and become even more terrifying. Think about it, an Ebola-carrying zombie is lethal even if it doesn't bite you. That's messed up.


No showers
Most times, nothing feels better than stepping under some hot water and lathering ourselves with sweet-smelling soap. On the flip side, showering can be a chore, especially on those lazy days. Forget shaving, cleaning your pores or taking a bath. Zombies smell, look disgusting and are just fine with it.

    I don't know about anyone else, but I enjoy taking a shower, changing my clothes, and brushing my teeth, thank you.

    And what exactly would you be doing with your "tons of free time"? I don't think zombies watch TV...

    Other than that, I'd say its a rather mediocre attempt at a pointless topic. But interesting though. Better than all these "which version of GTAIV is better" articles.

    I took the article as a sarcastic swipe at the 'pros'. As in it is highlighing all these benefits but really showing how shit it would be.

    They don't actually advocate the whole 'become a zombie' (AKA: Zombification) thing (even if it was a real condition)....After all, being what is essentially an automaton, flesh eating, 'once a human', pretty much any trace of intelligence rotten away with th brain, creature isn't really appealing >_>

    Lol at the going around naked ;; Notice how zombies that happen to be naked in-game (like with Oblivion) are mysteriously missing genitalia? Can't be showin' the rotting ding-dongs and stuff I guess >_>

    Well that article reminded me of why i like to do my daily things just so i can keep clean. Zombies always look outright disgusting, heck it's a part of them.
