==Development== Hip Interactive announced on December 15, 2004 that they had made an agreement with [[Living Dead Productions]] to produce a series of games based on Romero's films, with ''City of the Dead'' being the first to be developed and released. The company also expected to develop games based directly on the movies ''[[Night of the Living Dead]]'' and ''Dawn of the Dead''.<ref name="Romero Gets Game">{{cite web | title=Romero Gets Game | publisher=[[IGN]] | url=http://xbox.ign.com/articles/573/573584p1.html | accessdate=2007-08-03}}</ref> Before the cancellation, it was announced that [[Tom Savini]], [[make-up artist]] and regular actor in the ''Dead Series'', would be providing the voice and likeness of a character in the game. The character would have been William "Red" McLean, a supporting character that later becomes playable himself. Actual gameplay was shown at [[Electronic Entertainment Expo|E3]] 2005 (but was not playable by those attendance.) Those that saw the presentation have commented that ''City of the Dead'' contained high levels of violence, blood and gore, to the point of excess.<ref name="City of the Dead Preview">{{cite web | title=City of the Dead Preview | publisher=[[IGN]] | url=http://xbox.ign.com/articles/618/618019p1.html | accessdate=2007-08-03}}</ref>
