The Zombie vs. Ambulance (PS2 import) FAQ

Recommended Posts

Zombies roam the streets, and it's up to you, a young doctor, to kill them with your tricked out ambulance of death! Rescue survivors! Kill zombies! Upgrade your ambulance with bigger blades! Kill more zombies!

I don't know if anyone has this game (you can get it for $13 including shipping from Play-Asia), but I wrote a big FAQ on it (with screenshots) if you're interested:

Damn that's awesome. How do I go about modding a PS2 now? This may make it worth it.

  • Plays like Carmageddon :tup:
  • ...but without any other cars :tdown:
  • Boss fights! :tup:
  • ...they look cumbersome and dull (going by this clip alone) :tdown:
  • Neat graphical touches (i.e. the automatic signals on the ambulance at junctions) :tup:
  • Alarmingly short draw distance :tdown:
  • Seems to have distinct characters throughout :tup:
  • Their seemingly-random exclaimations ("Good work!") freezing gameplay will get annoying within seconds :tdown:

Still a bargain at that price though.

That is all.

Haha, the game isn't THAT good. It's fun for a couple hours, but then it's just work. Anyway, you can play imports on a PS2 really easily with a fliptop or slidecard. I use a slidecard, no modding at all, you just have to take the little cover off the tray (and you need swapmagic, etc.).

I should also mention that a PAL version is coming, apparently:

I just added that link to the FAQ.

Wrestlevania: You're pretty much right on. Upgrading is fun though!

Well....Mojib Ribbon is fun! Very, very, basic. But fun!

And pretty, also.

Vib Ripple is okay, but it's no Mojib Ribbon.

Fair do's - that does look pretty cool.

I know this game is part of the Simple 2000 Series, but I still think The Zombie vs. Ambulance is perhaps a missed opportunity. That's all. The developers evidently have vivid imaginations, but all their undead ideas don't seem to have come together very well--despite the huge amounts of polish evident in that video.

Do you know if it has multiplayer? Racing against other ambulances would be a riot I think, especially if you could ram your opponent(s) for extra points.

Yeah, it's very obvious it's a budget title. It could have been great if they'd put more into it.

I don't think so.
