Combining two recent American pop culture fascinations, Tea Party Zombies Must Die. That is all.
This post was deleted for the following reason: This is kind of no-context GRARbait, and the game itself is pretty much a piece of shit besides. Let's pass. -- cortex
Meh. I preferred Tea Party Zombies May Live, Tea Party Voodoo Priests Who Animate These Unfortunates Should Be Taxed At A Fair Level

A crappy, clunky, and generic FPS in a thoughtless and meaningless political wrapper. Hipster Zombies must die would have done just as well and benefited by the fact that everyone hates and can thus revel in dismantling undead hipsters, whereas Gramma, while she doesn't agree with everything Tea Partiers say, thinks they have some valid issues and consequently won't be able to enjoy this crappy, crappy game.

In an ideal world, Tea Party Zombies Must Die would be a Troma film, produced somewhere between Surf Nazis Must Die and Chopper Chicks in Zombietown (itself notable for starring Billy Bob Thornton on his way up and Martha Quinn on her way down.)

A video game where you are encouraged to shoot down Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich (zombified or not) is no more acceptable than on in which you would be encouraged to shoot Obama. It's beyond the pale and what the creators and promoters were thinking by releasing this is beyond me. For my part, starvingeyes, the promoter of this travesty is now forever on my "do not visit or do business with" list.

Hey, this reminds me of that other game with the guy who shot a lady politician in the face over differences in political ideology!

The lag when there are more than a couple of sprites is just awful. I got slagged by the Koch Bros.

I'm all for Tea Party bashing. But this really doesn't work as a FPP. Sorry.

My Gran tends to focus on play over story issues, but YGMV.

I saw this yesterday and was going to post it, but then decided to pass. It just seemed too ... too ... too... something.
