I don't know if they ported it or not, but if they did or if you have a PS2, Resident Evil 4 is an absolutely amazing game. They fixed a lot of the problems with the older RE games (line of sight and stupidly low amounts of ammo, namely) and it just looks beautiful.
Half Life and Half Life 2, while not strictly zombie games, have lots of zombie moments and are two of the best games ever made, without question. |

RE4 would be much better on a Gamecube! haha, just had to put that in.
I guess Half-Life 2 would have a sort of "zombies". I can't really think of anything like Residen Evil for the PC though. Doom 3 does.

Dead Rising is not for the PC Im pretty sure, although it looks promising. To be honest, as far as PC titles go, you don't have a hell of alot to choose from for true zombie action. There was the RE ports, as well as a port of the Xbox game Road To Fiddlers Green, which was horrible. As far as I can remember, the only zombie games of any worth on the PC were all mods of existing games like Half Life and Max Payne. Right now, the only Zed game I play is Urban Dead which is an internet browser game. Its fun, but not too exciting.

Well, what you're talking about is an FPS with zombies as the enemies. So your best bet is going to be a mod for an established FPS. Half/Life 1 had a mod called They Hunger, and there was a stage in H/L2 that was pretty much all zombies. Try looking along those lines and maybe you'll have luck, but there's not much margin in a pure zombie FPS.

I don't think he said anything about an FPS.

yeah dosnt have to be a fps. a good zombie adventure/rpg game would be neat. Just have the urge to play a good post apocoliptic zombie plauge survival type game.
Always liked the old resident evil games where you were always wondering if you would have enough ammo for the next few rooms or if a zombie dog was gonna come flying through the window. |

I believe RE4 for PC ships on Christmas 2006. It's well worth the wait...also there was Land of the Dead, Road to Fiddler's Green, which was a tie-in to the recent Romero movie, but it was TERRIBLE. TERRIBLE. TERRIBLE LIKE NO BRAINS FOR BREAKFAST TERRIBLE.
Otherwise, I think you are SOL. /zombie-lover

Small digression here:
I know it's not a PC game but I just got Dead Rising for the 360 ... and it ranks with the Resident Evil series as among the best zombie games I've ever played! I'll give a separate post on it ... |

^^^Zombie thread rises from its grave^^^
If you are interested in a multiplayer FPS I highly recommend Left 4 Dead 1&2. It has a lot of different multiplayer modes (pure coop, versus, short play coop). Valve really knows how to put polish and balance into a game (which explains why they take so bloody long to finish them). |
