Gotta love the Onion.

That and the unlockable extra levels, the 'Create A Cryptic Note' feature, and the 'Play As The Cops' mode. And, of course, we'll be expanding the Create-A-Sniper feature, in which you can put yourself or your friends in a tree outside a strip-mall parking lot and take aim at the customers exiting such stores as Ponderosa, T.J. Maxx, and Jo-Ann Fabrics."

It's funny because it's pretty much true.

Too true. I personally have a real hard time playing much of anything with realistic graphics wherein I'm expected to shoot another human being. After looking up the barrel of another man's gun a couple of times, being shot at and witnessing people nearby being shot to death, I don't think I've got what it takes to even play around with killing a lifelike human being. I haven't touched a gun game since HotD2 was first released for DC. I just don't think it's an intelligent message here in the USofA(world capital of gun violence with over 29 times as many gun deaths as the next country in line), playing games with gun lookalikes.

However when the graphics are cartoony or the undead need to be sent back to the graves they sprang from I come with the bumrush, guns ablazin'!

Don't forget, by March of next year, people will come to accept this game for the great gameplay and not the controversial overtones.
