Have zombie games gone down the tubes?

There are zombies....in the tubes?

Oh God, It's started. Get the shotgun.

The zombie mods for Half Life 2 are pretty good too.

I think maybe its us that's changed. zombies can only really do one thing: eat. Maybe we've just gotten used to the idea of a zombie apocalypse.

Which means the only way to keep zombie games interesting would be to come up with new ways to fight the damn things...

Problem is, we do that, and all the old-time zombie fans come in and say "Oh, those aren't real zombies! Real zombies are slow moving and, frankly, boring to fight at this point." Look at the outcry over Left 4 Dead.

EDIT:Sorry, read the first page and thought that I'd seen enough to give my argument. Now the discussion's closed, apparently. My bad.
