Like the endless horde that countless movies portray them as, zombies have seen a resurgence in gaming, the most recent one being XomB (pronounced "zombie") from 3G Studios.

Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology 2 and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time (Wii, DS) came out in Japan two weeks ago, so it'd be interesting to know how those games fared on their first week.

Greece-based Track7 Games, developer of the upcoming conspiracy-fantasy adventure set in Athens called Theseis, has just unveiled a new teaser trailer to show us one of Theseis' mystery-filled levels known as the Ruined House. By the looks of it, this promising video game for the Microsoft Xbox 360 and PC from Track7 Games doesn't need zombies or chainsaw-wielding maniacs to send some scares.

As an authentic Greek game in every sense, the Ruined House is just one of the locations that will give everyone a glimpse of what modern day Greece looks like. Track7 Games promised realistic environments, and from what we saw from Theseis' video, that's not far from the truth. Almost every nook and cranny seems full of detail, from dimly lit staircases to fully textured walls that show wear and tear.

Theseis puts players in the shoes of paranormal experts in their quest to reveal the mysteries of an ancient artifact that can potentially wipe out humans from the face of the planet. While the focus of the game is on solving puzzles and immersing the player in Greek mythology, we'll probably spend plenty of time just enjoying the view.

Of course, that won't happen 'til Theseis' release scheduled sometime in 2008. There should be more teaser trailers in the near future according to Track7 Games Product Manager Demetris Papadopoulos, so watch this space for any updates!
