Stubbs the Zombie is a third person action game that uses an updated Halo engine to deliver a stirring take of one man's hunger for love, justice…and brains. In the game, players take on the role of the rebel himself - Stubbs, a wisecracking zombie who takes on an ultra-modern city using nothing but his own carcass and the weapons of his possessed enemies. The game's tongue-in-cheek humor, innovative combat and strong storyline keep Stubbs the Zombie's gameplay as bizarre and unpredictable as its namesake.
The Stubbs the Zombie game is set in a fictional "City of the Future" in 1959. To complement this theme, the tracks are new versions of songs made famous in this era, with the exception of the zombie inspired original track "The Living Dead" by California's Phantom Planet.
