Zombie MMO coming for XBOX 360 from Undead Labs. WTF?

      "Undead Labs’ sole focus will be to create the definitive massively multiplayer online zombie game (MMOZ) for console gamers. Nothing screams funny quite like wading into a group of rotting zombies with a lawn chair and a box of sharpened HB pencils, and nothing says fun quite like doing it with your friends, whether online or on your sofa. Undead Labs is committed to bringing to life an MMO loaded with action, humour and, of course, a lot of zombies, because the world doesn’t any need more dragons."

       The above from a press release sent out today.  The game is obviously at a VERY pre-Alpha stage as there aren't even screen shots of it as yet.  The game's creators are pulled from everywhere; including Guild Wars and World of Warcraft.  But a console MMO?  It is hard to believe such a thing possible except from a big studio like NCSOFT, Blizzard, or Bioware.  Here's hoping we are all laughing like this is a Plants versus Zombie style rather than sighing and shaking our heads because it's a Dead Rising clone instead.
