Board 8 > Can anyone recommend good post-apocalyptic / dystopian media?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Movies, TV shows, books, video games (limited to 360 or PS2) etc.

I might be open to a graphic novel or comic if it gets enough praise.

Post-apocalyptic is self-explanatory.

For dystopian, I'm looking for a 1984-style police state thing, like City 17 at the beginning of Half-Life 2.

Stuff I'm already aware of or have read/watched/played:

A Clockwork Orange
Farenheit 451
Brave New World
1984
Atlas Shrugged
The Road
The Hunger Games
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (and the film Blade Runner)
Fallout 3 / New Vegas
Bioshock
Escape from New York / LA
Equilibrium
The Book of Eli
The Running Man
Logan's Run

And probably more. Thanks in advance.

Judge Dredd, the comic that's been running weekly in 2000AD since 1977 and monthly in the Judge Dredd Megazine since 1990. By far the best anything ever in that genre.

Also, the manga Fist of the North Star, movie Mad Max, etc.

Does this include zombie stuff like Walking Dead?

Or games like Deus Ex?

I'd say so. Especially since Blade Runner counts, we know Deus Ex counts.

Which reminds me, Akira.

Thought I listed Walking Dead, but yes it does. I'd prefer it if it was more about survivors living like a year after the initial outbreak than the outbreak itself.

I'm not a comic person, but I loved Y. Thirding that.

Jericho's pretty damn good, too. Unfortunately short, but very much worth watching.

SMT Nocturne fits this.
as does Digital Devil Saga 1 & 2.
hell, as does SMT: Strange Journey, as well as Devil Survivor.

they like end of the world deals. either it happened, is happening, or both.<_<;
