- Spam - Portable TVs?? Add also laptops, washing machines, vacuum cleaners, dishwashers, microwaves... -- 10:29, 1 June 2008 (BST)
- Re: You can get handheld TVs, y'know. Look 'em up on eBay, or the equivalent. --Blake Firedancer 11:33, 1 June 2008 (BST)
- Re: All stuff mentioned above doesn't fit in a zombie apocalypse game... people watching TVs when there is an undead horde outside? -- 12:21, 1 June 2008 (BST)
- Re: Ever hear of 'emergency broadcasts'? I think dead people coming back and eating the flesh of the living counts as an emergency. --Blake Firedancer 12:34, 1 June 2008 (BST)
- Re: We are in a partially zombiefied city... all high-tech stuff won't work after 3 years of quarantine. There are no emergency broadcasts - everyone here is expected to die. Also - I can't imagine people gathering around a TV to get info about hordes. radios are different - you don't need to sit and watch to get info. It's out of genre. -- 17:39, 1 June 2008 (BST)
- Actually several Romero movies did have TV and TV broadcasts in them. Pretty much shows that it's not out of genre if the master of the zombie mythos included it in his movies. I do think that it needs something extra to differentiate it from standard radio broadcasts though. --Tselita 22:13, 1 June 2008 (BST)
- It's not the beginning of the Malton Outbrake.... It's over 2 years now. Imagine a city after 2 years of conflict - definitely there is no place for TVs. -- 06:58, 2 June 2008 (BST)
