Zombies!!! confirmed for Xbox Live Arcade
After a rumor began circulating over the summer, Twilight Creations officially announced last week that its Zombies!!! board game is headed to Xbox Live Arcade. For those unfamiliar with the game (like us), it's a tile-based game that has players attempting to flee from the "ever-growing zombie horde." So, in other words, it sounds pretty much like the best board game of all time. Zombies!!! is being developed by Big Rooster, which is also working on bringing the board game Wings of War to XBLA. It's also worth noting that Big Rooster was the studio behind the recently canceled XBLA version of Talisman (hopefully not the beginning of a trend). Zombies!!! is expected to release some time in 2009.

Hell yeah. I, for one, think this is truly awesome. It's an awesome board game that, I hope, will translate into an equally awesome video game.
Looking forward to it.

I just hope they allow for custom rules. If you play by the rules in the manual, the game can take fooooorever.
Also, I hope they animate they zombies and characters.

I am so pumped for this... and I know that Zombies is a special game.. I just hope it does not lose anything in the translation to video game.

Great game, hopefully there is room for variants and home rules as someone else said.

I can't wait. Just think of all the nice things people will scream over live when you start trapping them in. And all you can reply is BRAAINNS

Zombies!!! is awesome. I'm curious as to how they'll translate it to a video game, but hey, I'm down.
