Left 4 Dead LogoIt’s no big secret. Zombies have been the new hotness in the media for a while now. One can hardly swing a dead cat, zombified or not, without hitting something that has been touched by the taint of the hungry dead.

However, we here at CFD! know something that most of the casual masses don’t: the recent rash of zombie related books, movies and video games aren’t just fun, escapist entertainment – they’re actually preparing us for the impending zombie apocalypse! All of these bits of survival information that we’ve been consuming over the years via mass media are actually what’s going to make the difference when Z-Day finally comes.

So, to help prepare you all (and to celebrate the release of the “Crash Course” DLC pack, I suppose… you know, in theory) CFD! is giving away a copy of Left 4 Dead for PC, via Steam. All we want to know, to help us separate those who stand a good chance to benefit from this training from the ones who’ll end up as Chex Mix for the shambling undead hordes, is the following: “What is your zombie apocalypse survival plan?”

To enter, make sure you have an account with our site (sign-up is at the top of the rightmost sidebar), and join CFD!’s Steam group (the link is a little further down, under Follow Us). Once you’ve done that, hit the comments below and outline your survival plan. You can make it super serious and realistic or as ridiculously weird as you like. The winner will be picked from the entries that we find the most helpful and/or entertaining. Entries will be cut off at midnight Eastern/9pm Pacific on Friday, October 9th and a winner will be picked and posted Saturday, October 10th.

Good luck! And remember to aim for the head!

    I would move to a remote tropical island where the chance of Zombie-ism would be remote. On the slim chance the residents did become Zombies, I wouldn’t need a whole armory to take them out, and could be back to sipping Margaritas and hanging by the beach before dinner. :D

    I would callously use other humans (especially the non-females) as cannon fodder for the zombie feeding frenzy. Then when I have eliminate all other males and generally annoying people, I would rise to power as overlord of earth and I would use remaining zombies that I hadn’t eliminated with my various “boom-sticks” as amusement for the end of my days…zombie jousting anyone? zombies in Mexican-luchadore masks do anything for you? “Name that zombie (a la Dawn of the Dead remake)” – That do anything for ya???
