			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fear not, BZB fans, Zombie Sushi IS coming. </p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.doublesixgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/zombie_sushi1.jpg"><img src="http://www.doublesixgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/zombie_sushi1-480x270.jpg" alt="" title="zombie_sushi1" width="480" height="270" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1068" /></a></p>
<p>Admittedly it&#8217;s taken much longer than it should have &#8211; for which we apologise &#8211; but the Burn Zombie Burn! DLC &#8216;Zombie Sushi&#8217; <em>will</em> see the light of day. Ollie offered an <a href="http://www.doublesixgames.com/what-happened-to-zombie-sushi/">update</a> on the situation back in September, and this explanation still holds true. That said, the DLC won&#8217;t launch this side of Christmas, and we&#8217;re instead aiming for release around March. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m aware how frustrating this is for you trophy hunters, but hang in there! When there&#8217;s more news to share, it&#8217;ll find it&#8217;s way onto the blog here. </p>

<p>Novemeber 23rd. Whack it in your diary. That&#8217;s when Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Special Editions hits Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network. In addition to the main Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? question pack, and a movie pack (Who Wants To Be A Movie Millionaire?), Special Editions will get its first branded pack in the form of South Park. </p>
<p>The Millionaire set, audience, lifelines and contestants are all themed around the popular series. The pack includes five player avatars &#8211; designed by South Park Studios themselves &#8211; in addition to over 600 questions taken from across all 15 seasons of the show.</p>
<p>Keep your eyes out for more themed Special Editions in the future, and be sure to &#8216;like&#8217; the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/WhoWantsToBeAMillionaireSpecialEditions" title="WWTBAM Facebook">Facebook page</a> for regular updates. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.doublesixgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/bzb_kavcom.jpg" alt="" title="bzb_kavcom" width="480" height="392" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1031" /></p>
<p>We&#8217;re happy to announce that there will be a Mac version of <a href="http://www.burnzombieburn.com/">Burn Zombie Burn</a> in May, followed by an iOS app version (for iPad, iPhone and iPodTouch) later in the year. For those curious, these ports are being handled by <a href="http://www.kavcom.co.uk/">Kavcom</a> on our behalf. In any case, we&#8217;re suitably happy that the game will finally find an audience on the Mac and other Apple hardware. </p>
<p>As for Zombie Sushi and the forthcoming patch for the original PS3 version of the game, this is still underway. However, due to the Japanese release, the subsequent regions are being delayed as the patch is the same across all regions, on account of the game&#8217;s global leaderboards. Once we have an update on its progress, you&#8217;ll be the first to know.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It turns out that the &#8220;Friend of d6&#8243; trophy in <a href="http://www.burnzombieburn.com/">Burn Zombie Burn</a>, where you have to beat all our Dev Scores (the ones set by Chewie, Jon and I), is one of the toughest trophies for a PSN game. It has also engendered a certain level of hardcore credibility since the game&#8217;s release last year. </p>
<p>The game&#8217;s fan-made <a href="http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps3/954810-burn-zombie-burn/faqs">FAQ</a>, by Vyrastas, even has a special section dedicated to the exclusive club of gamers that have managed to 100% complete the trophies for the game (even linking a video to the moment one player managed to land the final &#8220;Friend of d6&#8243; trophy, shown below).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/2e54wJEqrV4" width="425" height="355" class="embedflash"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2e54wJEqrV4" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><small>(Please open the article to see the flash file or player.)</small></object></p>
<p>Considering this is more than a little awesome, we&#8217;re going to start rewarding these skilled gamers with trinkets and virtual high-fives (more on this in the coming weeks). In short, keep an eye out for our future games as they may also contain a fiendishly difficult &#8220;Friend of d6&#8243; trophy or achievement. </p>
