San Francisco, CA - December 15th, 2004 - Hip Interactive Corp. today announced that its fast-growing publishing division, Hip Games(TM), signed an agreement with Living Dead Productions Limited to produce a George A. Romero series of video games on all current and upcoming platforms.

Romero's movies, including "Dawn of the Dead" and "Night of the Living Dead," benefit from a strong, worldwide cult-following, which translates into continuous success for the movies and their merchandising. Now, finally, his fans will have the long-awaited series of video games that capture the entire universe of zombies, action and gore of George A. Romero. Hip Games(TM) will soon be announcing the first game of the series in a separate release.

"Horror fans have been searching for the ultimate experience in gaming, and we intend to deliver it to them with the tremendous creative input of legendary director, George A. Romero, and Living Dead Productions," said Arindra Singh, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hip Interactive Corp. "We believe this series will make an important contribution to the growth and results of our Hip Games(TM) division."

"This is a fantastic opportunity to share George's work and ideas with the game buying public," said Simon Bailey, Managing Director of Living Dead Productions. "We are very impressed with the quality of work that Hip will bring to the games. George's fans and gamers alike will not be disappointed!"

"I am very excited to start working in this medium and look forward to the association with Hip. I thank Living Dead Productions for making it all happen," commented George A. Romero.

Sweet! I really, for the love of god hope these don't suck! A decent 3d engine and it could be really cool.

Living Dead on the Zelda engine would be so sweet. Infact that give me an idea.

/me gets LttP cartridge and a hammer and chissel

yup, but have you a) heard of the company with the license b) expect a non-crap tie in game?

I mean until Rare came along with Goldeneye, tie-in-games were always just plain unoriginal shit, utilising a poor game engine to just milk a franchise.

edit: excluding odd titles of course, I was always partial to a bit of Die Hard Trilogy :)

i too liked die hard trilogy, so much i even bought it on original, and die hard trilogy 2 (yes odd)

i havent heard of the company no, but as its not davilex dealing with it im hoping it might be something at least playable to the end, i guess even sierra were new at one point and look at them now

for anyone who doesnt know, davilex acquire popular licenses then destroy them from within
