[TheGreatDirectorWatanbe]

Left 4 Dead just because it makes more sense for a zombie to be fast and running at you since they are TRYING TO EAT YOU. Also the Left 4 Dead games felt more like a Zombie Apocalypse to me.

 

[dusk22]

Husks from Mass Effect.

 

[Lucane]

Other: ... I was about to say Breath of Fire III mainly becuase of its Zombie Dragon,but then I saw...

my favorite zombie game is:

and realized there's only one true ansewer.
Man how unfair is it that the chainsaw guy can't be killed only stunned.

 

[Gladion]

Dead Rising zombies are pretty much the most boring of them all because you can kill them by farting in their direction.
Left 4 Dead zombies are a little more robust, but it's the RE zombies for me. DIE ALREADY, GODDAMNIT DIE!

 

[Colonel Alzheimer's]

If Left 4 Dead zombies happened in real life, no one would survive. Just imagine trying to kill a tank.

 

[JEBWrench]

Silent Hill; they're sorta zombies.

 

[Spiner909]

The Left 4 Dead zombies spin around you while punching you. And they're very fast. That's pretty scary on expert.
I guess they technically are mutants, though.

 

[Hybrid Sight]

Dead Rising. I've always preferred the shambling, kill-by-sheer-number kinda zombies.

 

[L34dP1LL]

Half-Life zombies

 

[Frank_Sinatra_]

RE zombies since I haven't really played any other zombie games...
Feel free to scorn me.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

I prefer the Left 4 Dead ones myself. They are a lot more interesting then the ones who just stumble about. Plus the Special Infected really makes things interesting.

 

[mrF00bar]

I voted L4D but the zombies in Killing Floor were also awesome. ^^

I'd have to go with Left 4 Dead. Sure, the 'Dawn Of The Dead' style slow and dumb zombies are the classics, but the 28 days later fast and furious zombie is a hell of a lot scarier for me.

exactly, in 28 weeks later when hes running from the house to the boat on the river, holy shitttt i woulda been shitting my pants and pissin myself while running full speed to that boat

slow and stupid zombies aren't scary at all, i can A)run from you, B)kick your ass, C)outsmart you

the new age zombies are what scares the living piss out of me

 

[Ruagh]

I like the Left4Dead zombies. Fast, but squishy.

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

I am a Left 4 Dead fanboy all the way.
Such an ingenious concept.
Dead Rising comes next, though.

 

[Jared]

Resident Evil series for me. Sheerly for the solid (if not somewhat confusing and convaluted) Storyline

 

[Rednog]

I have to go with the L4D zombies, they are just overly brutal and just insanely frightening. Crank it up to "Realism" Mode and you pretty much have the ultimate zombie, they move fast, hit hard, and you can pretty much pump them with a full clip of ammo and they still come at you.

 

[Valkyira]

Dead Rising without a doubt...

 

[BiscuitTrouser]

Agreed, how can slow be scary. True the slow relentless never stop ever until the end of the universe thing of terminator was scary shit, walking at a leasurely pace for your life struck me as rather comical. Lightning fast hurricanes of fury with a signle purpose to feed and feed until there is nothing left. The endless hunger, the great devourer. Thats scary. The thought that their is an endless horde of lethal fast single minded beings with no purpose but to kill and infect until there is nothing to kill.

 

[Ghonzor]

Left 4 Dead (the first one, not the second by any stretch of the imagination) does the "zombie" apocalypse very well. Despite the fact that they're not really undead...Max Brooks has a much better explanation for zombies anyway, but good game nonetheless.
