do NOT want.
The uncanny valley has been crossed and I really don't feel comfortable playing a game that close to reality.
Well, like books and movies, games are around to cross the boundary. Remember the scandal with Resident Evil and the blood it showed? Remember Manhunt and it's... it's everything? Remember GTA's Hot Coffee? Mass Effect's romance scenario?
Games are meant to push a boundary, make you think, and let you experience something not completely real. IF someone does take this game to heart and started massicaring a hotel, then God help the bystandards, but for entertainment games are still good.
Look for the Games Raw Danger and Disaster Report, they have cheesy graphics now, but they make a real scenario with disasters and put you in a disaster situation. Technically it helps the player realize things about thier own surroundings and makes them think, prepares them for the situation.
Not that zombies are going to happen, but a game can ask, "What if?" What if Zombies attack? Do you want someone who hasn't associated with the games and thought about it, or do you want someone who has played the games and thought things through? Replace the word Zombie and you can see what I mean more clearly.
