Is it just that fighting zombies is fun and people can never get enough of shooting them? Is it that they're humanoid but not really human so we don't feel as bad about blowing them away? Don't get me wrong, a lot of the games I love have zombies in them (because most games have zombies in them), but to be honest, the whole walking dead thing is starting to feel a little old hat. Why is zombie-killing a part of every game (and if it isn't there will be a DLC released with zombies in it), and is anyone else a little tired of it? When will developers move on to something new?
@Stan Jovanovic: Sure, I'll go for bats and walking trees. Why not? LOL. Look, I'm a hardcore gamer and I'm not really complaining here, just asking for opinions. I love a diversity of subjects in all media; books, movies, etc., and video games are no exception.
