Well it was in the works years ago, but it was canned. (http://gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/01/12/trailer-for-irrational-s-scrapped-zombie-game.aspx)
Division 9, it's a zombie game with a real survival RPG elements in it. Establish a base, go out for supplies, look for survivors, lay barricades, etc. And Kevin Levine was working on it. There's a video demo at the end, looks a bit rough and apparently your character doesn't know how to move faster than a crawl. Still though, how great could this have been?

Damn it... that was so epic. Why the hell didn't this ever happen? The art style was great... I can so see that as a full-fledged game with all the trimmings.
I'm gonna' go with Ken's lovely little placeholder voice work at the end there. "You bastards! Nooo!"

Damn, that would have been quite awesome.
-
That sounds so awesome....ugh, I so would have loved that!

So, what the hell is stopping Irrational from taking these ideas and actually starting over from scratch and delivering this game? :o

This is on how SWAT: Special Division evolved into Division 9.
From Irrational's site. (http://irrationalgames.com/insider/division-9-unreleaesd-zombie-shooter/)
Take-Two bought out Irrational - which is pretty much why D9 never fully happened. And from then, they worked on Bioshock.
