About Mike Wall

Mike grew up and lives near Philadelphia and has been intrigued with games ever since his parents preached that they rotted his brain. He studied journalism at Penn State and got his master's degree in secondary education before realizing that not even summers off would make that job palatable. He now works in marketing and is trying to find time to continue writing a book about zombies, aliens, vampires, the end of the world, and a talking cat.

    Weedwhacker. Namely, the one in Zombies Ate My Neighbors. How come no one’s ever stolen that idea? It’s hilariously fun!

    If videogames have taught me anything it’s that a shotgun is generally the most satisfying way to deal with the undead.

    Cat. Whack them with a cat and they go down fast. Not only does it serve as a blunt weapon, but the cat is so frightened that the claws come out, thereby converting it into a serrated edge as well.

    The Lobo from World war Z is the tool I’d love to use

    Best zombie dismembering weapon: nothing other than a beautiful 12 gauge shotgun. Effective at close to mid-range, capable of blasting away several of those buggers and always has a satisfying oomph every time you see more zombieparts splattered against the wall.

    A cricket bat. It always seems to work the best-ow. (tribute to Shaun of the Dead)

    Dead Rising got me hooked on small chainsaws.

    Seeing as Plants vs. Zombies is my favorite zombie game, I have to pick the trusty lawnmower with its ability to kill all zombies attacking my house once I fail to protect myself.

    Not exactly sure when this ends because it is friday, but not february 11th. 

    Practically my weapon would be a nice heavy steal greatsword.  Durable, and with enough mass to do damage even when dull.
