L4dcover Left 4 Dead 2008 Built on the Source engine it comes with a singleplayer mode (which is basically the co-op mode with AI, but creates situations dynamically based on your actions) and an online co-op mode, versus mode and survival mode. Fight your way through several campaigns in a group of four. Easy to get into, can be tremendously fun with friends. Windows, OSX, Xbox 360
Left4dead2cover Left 4 Dead 2 2009 Followup to the first one, feels more like an expansion. A new story arc with several campaigns, the same multiplayer modes as before, new weapons and zombies. Also a lot harder than the first one. However the AI is a bit buggy this time, sometime killing more fun than zombies. Windows, OSX, Xbox 360
Resident evil frontcover large 4KSy5h7NQHreSCU Resident Evil 1996 One of the best zombie related games of all time, (and the one that got survival horror off of the map) Not exactly as extremely zombie madness as the other games listed, but god damn if this doesnt have some jumps and whatnot.

CodeVeronicaXfront Resident Evil: Code Veronica X 2001 The last traditional Resi game goes out with a bang. You play as Claire on one disc, and then Chris on the next.

Stubbs-the-zombie Stubbs The Zombie 2005 Stubbs The Zombie In: Rebel Without A Pulse is one of the very few zombie games in which you control a zombie and not a survivor.

House-of-the-dead-saturn-front-cover The House Of The Dead 1998 Zombies work. Light Gun Games work. SEGA looked at the genre's and said "why not?" Pretty good game that has an ok story with hilariously bad voice acting (series staple). Arcade, Sega Saturn.
600full-the-house-of-the-dead-2-cover The House Of The Dead 2 1999 Another Great Zombie game that has more of that awesomely stupid voice acting, but fun as fuck nonetheless. Wheres the house in all this?! Arcade, Sega Dreamcast.
