If you can't spot that zombies are a massive 'thing' at the moment in video games, you're not noticing many video games. Even Call of Duty has zombies these days. And perhaps you're confusing my definition of zombies with the "particular" definition of zombies. I don't mean "Undead, those who raise from the dead, those who eat brains." I mean "those who have no mind for themselves and are basically strong humans with the brain of a predatory animal." They are a cheap way to get out of having to come up with an enemy which is intelligent and a cheap way to get out of a good plot. I know that there can be good games with them, but there comes a point where it feels like every other game is just another zombie game and that's when it becomes kind of annoying, especially when it comes from studios like Naughty Dog who quite frankly are good enough to do games that aren't already overdone. I do hope that they come up with something really interesting though, something unique and inventive. Either that or have an epic plot, or awesome characters. But if I want to play a game with zombies, I tend to just wait for the next L4D game in order to get my fix.

Anyway. Since 2008.

Dead Nation, Dead Block, Dead Space, Dead Space 2, Dead Rising 2, Left4Dead, Left4Dead 2, Call of Duty: World at War: Zombies, Yakuza: Dead Souls, Rock of the Dead, Zombie Panic in Wonderland, Zombie Wranglers, Undead Knights, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, Zombie Tycoon, Burn Zombie Burn!, Plants vs. Zombies, Zombie Apocalypse, I Made a Game with Zombies in It!, Shellshock 2: Blood Trails, The Last Guy, Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ, Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys!, Killing Floor, OneeChanbara Revolution, Resident Evil 5, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, Resident Evil: Revelations, Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, Resident Evil 4 HD, Resident Evil Code: Veronica X, The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return, The House of the Dead: Overkill, Silent Hill Homecoming, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, Silent Hill: Downpour.

From one list I found online, anyway. I recognise well over half of those titles.

EDIT: Perhaps the weird thing is that I'd enjoy it if they returned to a 'slow moving' zombie game purely because I'm so sick of the current 'generation' of zombies. xD
