When i was a kid, i loved zombies and everything with zombies on.
Someday i was searching for zombies games to play on my old PC and find Land of the Dead: Road to Fiddler's Green to download it. I was so happy playing the game at the game but never got to finish the game.
I really wanna the chance to oficially play the game again.
i played a demo of this on xbox when i was a kid . i found a copy years later for xbox but it did not work . but i still remember how fun the demo is so if it can be saved and made to run on current systems maybe even get hd textures it wound be a fun quick time
I played this a LOT when I was younger on my Xbox. I loved it and would love to be able to relive my childhood. I remember getting home from school and just playing this from start to finish.
This game had some genuinely creepy moments like the living dead squirming around in their body bags. Since it's a licensed game I doubt there is much chance of a resurrection but while there is life, there is hope :)
The game never was jaw dropping, it was notoriously and righteously panned by critics on release.
Dumb AI being one of them, even for being zombies.
Dated visuals i believe was another.
However at the time there weren't many, if any pure zombie FPS games to be had so this fit a nice niche at the time before Left 4 Dead, Dead Island and Dying Light.
Campaign is average at best but still serviceable, the real fun was multiplayer.
I dont mean the default MP the game shipped with, it was just a barebones deathmatch or a wave survival mode (on tiny maps), but the modding community improved on that, there were alot of cool maps made for the game, large too.
A few things i always remember about LOTD is the punchy head popping revolver and the worst shotgun in videogames ever, it could miss at point blank!
Anyway, the usermade maps, with added content thanks to the Unreal Editor, they made the mall from Dawn of the dead -78, the bunker from Day of the Dead (with alot of zombies in the elevator!)
An infection mode was added so you could get infected and eventually die only to rise again (not unlike No More Room In Hell, the Source game).
They created some new weapons to be used, some maps were just a playground, others were focused on pure survival horror.
Like a NOTLD map with doorways and windows that could be barricaded. Lots of fun.
The effort put into the multiplayer maps really made the game shine, been years since i played it but i spent quite a good chunk of time with LOTD back in ca 2005-2007!
Its a chunky game, i mean that in both good and bad ways, it does stand out to me for being the first proper "Romero zombie" game and it left a small legacy due to that.
To see it added to GOG is not an absolute must, but more of a "nice to have", worse games do exist.
Is this game a masterpiece, no, it has flaws, but I have a lot of nostalgia for it because I used to play it all the time when I was a kid and I would really like to play it again. I really hope this gets added to GOG.
I played it on Xbox as a kid and absolutely loved this game. I would buy it today so I could relive it now as an adult. Please bring this to GOG, we need more game preservation like this. These kind of games are hidden gems in their own right.
