As if the punishing desert climate, abundance of venomous reptiles, and worsening air pollution weren't enough to declare Phoenix, Arizona an apocalyptic hellscape, my home city is now being invaded by flesh-eating zombies in a new World War Z update some five years after launch.
The harsh city's deserved ribbing aside, it's not often I get to see the place I live get video game-ified. Although you can't see much outside of the new map - an abandoned military museum - you also can't mistake the non-native palm trees we plant to trick ourselves into thinking we live in San Diego or the jagged, cacti-dotted mountains surrounding the valley.
