You know which classic game deserves a modern sequel? Zombies Ate My Neighbors, a beloved horror-themed top-down shooter that is currently owned by Disney. A new sequel is super unlikely, but a spiritual successor is on the horizon. indie developer Curse Free Studios announced Demons Ate My Neighbors! years ago, and now it seems like they're making some progress.

Digital games are more convenient than physical games, and usually cheaper too. Still, there's something about collecting physical games that appeals to many gamers.

We've all heard of movies based on video games; Resident Evil and Prince of Persia are two recent examples, and of course there are the Halo rumors, too.  But the next big video game movie might not be inspired by relatively new games.  Apparently, a script based on SNES/Genesis era classic Zombies Ate My Neighbors is being shopped around.  It's described as "Superbad plus Zombieland plus Home Alone" which actually sounds like a pretty good movie, once you think about it. 

Could there be a better combination than chicks in chainmail bikinis and zombies?  We think not, especially when we've featured both games in Co-Op Classics!  Brain eating undead and magic wielding warrior women are both headed to the Wii this week, via the Virtual Console service.
