Our Weekend In Gaming: Killing Zombies for the Emperor

Here it is folks.  The tsunami of video game goodness that is the fall release schedule is crashing down upon us.  Either we will drown in all the co-op goodness, or we will manage to hang ten, ride the big kahuna, or otherwise stretch a metaphor.  The big releases all make appearances on the staff list this week, but the twin titans, Dead Island and Space Marine are everywhere you look.  So grab a boltgun and watch out for that zombie!

Nick "bapenguin" Puleo - "Resistance 3 for me as well as trying to wrap up Dead Island...both in Co-Op of course."

Marc "DjinniMan" Allie"I will be bathing in the blood of Orks in Space Marine.  I was actually giggling while playing it last night."

Mike "Pheriannath" Katsufrakis - "Still waiting for all my stuff to arrive, but I have my DS and PSP to keep me company until then!"

Jim "txshurricane" McLaughlin - ""I'll most likely stick with Driver: San Francisco all weekend. Seriously. That game is rocking my socks.""

Andrew "Cubninja" Gaskill - "I'll be playing Dead Island and Space Marine.  I just got a second copy of Dead Island for my wife, so it is ON!  I beat the Space Marine single player campaign too quickly, so I may have to double dip.  The multiplayer versus mode is just as addictive and fun as I remember.  I wish I could squish these two games together for a 50 hour power-armored zombie kill-a-rama.  Someone make that game!"

Tally "xelissa" Callahan - "I'll be delving further into Dead Island this weekend."

Paul "EastX" Acevedo - "Finishing off Ugly Americans and starting on Leedmees this weekend. Also, ice cream!"

Jason "OrigamiPanther" Love - "I'm hoping to be playing Dead Island and Space Marine, provided they arrive at my doorstep today. Otherwise, I'll be replaying Deus Ex: Human Revolution and doing my best to keep my head above water."

Sam "Samoza" Tyler - "I'm away for a party, party, party for the weekend, so not much gaming for me.  When I get back I hope to start Gatling Gears and Hunted: The Demon Forge; two games I have just bought."

What are your gaming plans?
