There is a lot more control with the new one. So instead of just pressing the aim button and firing the gun, hoping for that head shot, you can aim the gun at the enemy manually shoot them wherever you want. It's more....interactive I suppose. Maybe less boring is the right phrase, especially with the AI of the enemies in big areas. I suppose however that it was far more scary when you were on a narrow walkway and could see the zombies coming at you from both sides and had to choose which way to go, knowing that there isn't enough room to run around them, knowing that if you didn't act quickly enough you were going to get bitten.
