Plants vs zombies (or, “Mommy, a zombie ate my begonia”)
I read about this today on Edge and Wired. I also read the interview of the designer George Fan – he’s at Popcap but he’s also doing stuff for Diablo 3 . How cool is that?
Being curious, I downloaded the trial and I really loved it. If there are games that are slowly breaking this stupid superfluous casual vs hardcore divide, Plants vs Zombies is surely one of them.
A ‘guard your territory’ approach, which is not limited there. Great visuals, funny characters and voice overs and lots of mini games that unlock as you progress.
Have a look at the game trailer and give it a go!
I am starting to think that casual vs hardcore games will soon be distinguished by:
1. the pints of blood shed vs hour ratio
2. the mega vs giga bytes of download
but more on this another time 
Now go, go and get this nice game from steam, it’s only 10 bucks!
