I'm not overly fond of zombies either way, but fast ones are less uninteresting. At least they're actually threatening, rather than just vaguely amusing.

it goes without saying, if it aint a max brooks zombie, that sir aint no zombie, zombies are by definition dead, the fact they are moving is caused by an outside force that is instinctive and controling something it really shouldn't, its like putting a 2 year old on a flight sim, they might be able to do something but it aint gonna be pretty and it aint gonna fast.
yeah old school zombies

Have you tried Dead Frontier? If not, I believe it contains most of the elements you mentioned.Chezza said:One of the medias I find lacking in zombie content that I want (Almost all games have zombies somehow! But all fast or super infected as you say) is PC games.
I want a slow paced, high tension survival zombie game where I count every bullet desperately, only feeling pimp when I have a 2 full clips or magazines which should be rare. The zombies should be slow and not always swarming. A few unique quicktime events when some get close would be nice and the incentive to take risks to go into abandoned buildings is to find food, shelter, items, ammo, weapons etc which is difficult to come by.
In addition I want it to be free roaming without many linear paths. Similar concept to the STALKER series I would like to occasionally meet other survivors quietly scavenging for their own means however it is difficult to identify if they will be friendly or hostile to strangers. Furthermore various rare events that take place like military patrols on a single mission or a group of guys in a Ute with a mounted-machine gun could come by in which could be either beneficial slaughtering a swarm of zombies or waking up the entire neighborhood which will expose you and any partners.
I believe this would be the ideal zombie game for many players. It Also has quality multiplayer potential in terms of co-op. As long as its mainly survival and you can starve or thirst, you need sleep, ammo is rare, inventory management, stamina and finally the game companies are prepared to try such a unique game-type.
HaHa thinking about it, someone with good modding experience can do a total conversion mod for Stalker and make this wish come true
OT: Honestly, I don't care which are used as long as they match what the game/movie is going for. I love them both equally.
Slow = Undead Zombies
Fast = Infected
There is a difference, Zombies are dead/undead and to me I prefer them to be slow shambling creatures who occasionally fall over. (they are rotting corpses!)
Infected on the other hand are technically Zombies in the "Brain-dead" way but aren't "Living dead" so they are permitted to be as fast as they like.
That's just my opinion anyway.
TL;DR: Dead - Slow, Infected - Fast
Fast = Infected
