This years Games Day was quite a spectacle. We brought the Land of the Dead for the public and some select press to check out for the first time ever. Check out the ridiculous amounts of coverage. Not only were they totally in awe of the Land of the Dead, but they've put out enough content to keep you busy until the Land of the Dead launches.

"It's rare, but every so often, an established developer walks into what should otherwise be just another press demo and surprises everyone in the room. Mythic Entertainment did just that this weekend when they unveiled Land of the Dead to a group of journalists at Baltimore Games Day."

"It's very different, and it's a lot of fun. Land of the Dead is totally something you need to experience."
