Best Zombie Video Games

Published by admin under Uncategorized

With the success of zombie movies this decade it makes sense that developers would turn to video games as well to bank on the resurgence of zombie love. There have been a lot of great zombie games for various gaming systems throughout the years, so here is a list of the top ones that you should play first.

Zombies At My Neighbors

Released for the SNES in 1993, this run and gun video game made by the always great LucasArts developers was a fun and hilarious oddity of a game. The premise is pretty simple, you play as Zeke or Julie, teenage kids who wake up to find the zombies have taken over their neighborhood. You run around different levels finding keys and warp points all while water gunning, weed wacking, throwing exploding soda cans and bazooking zombies in your path. The game was such a cult hit that it was re-released for the Nintendo Wii Virtual Console so younger fans could play the classic game.

Resident Evil

The original resident evil game used zombies as a springboard to tell a winding, sometimes convoluted story about an evil genetics corporation and the SWAT team trying to stop them. The game has of course been made into several movies staring Milla Jovovich and the franchise has continued to this day with the most recent being Resident Evil 5 for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. It was one of the highest selling games of 2009 which just goes to show, people still love their zombies.

House of the Dead (series)

The House of the Dead arcade game series is one of the most popular light gun arcade games. The story isn’t really the high point of the House of the Dead series. Basically you walk around houses and different settings killing zombies and other weird creatures. The graphics were great and the light gun action was pretty fun, but it was pretty difficult and was a total money drain if you actually wanted to play through the game to the end. The series has been ported to the Xbox, PC and the Wii with separately sold light guns that resemble smaller spyder paint ball guns.
