Since Fort Zombie, one of the games in our “what upcoming zombie game are you looking forward to?” poll is out, it’s time for a new poll. The clear winner of the last poll is Left 4 Dead 2, with sixty of 135 votes, or a solid 44 percent of the total votes — not that it’s any surprise, since L4D2 is one of the most anticipated games of the year. What was surprising was a late, strong showing from Fort Zombie, due in part, no doubt, to the interest generated by our exclusive Q&A with the Fort Zombie dev team and people finding the site (and thus the poll) while searching for info on the game. In any case, FZ grabbed 25 votes, good for 19 percent of the total, pushing it ahead of Dead Rising 2, which ended up at 20 votes (15 percent). Dead Island grabbed 10 percent (13 votes) and the as-yet untitled zombie survival RPG from DoubleBear nabbed the last significant block with its seven votes for 5 percent. The rest? Well, I guess no one (or almost no one) cares about Zombie Tycoon or Undead Knights — “something else” beat them both. And no one left comments even saying what that “else” might be…
As a followup, tell us what your favorite medium for zombies is. Do you like zombie movies? Zombie videogames? Books? Comics? Scratch-and-sniff stickers? You can find the poll after the break. I can’t wait to see where you most love to find zombies. The poll will remain open for at least two weeks, so send your friends to stuff the ballot box for your favorite. And if you vote “Something else,” please leave a comment saying what that something might be. It’s more fun for everyone if you do.

I love GOOD zombie movies. Even mediocre ones can be fun. I love to see a well choreographed fighing-through-zombies scene.
I believe I put ‘other’ on that video game quiz, because I was looking ahead to Dead Space 2. Not having a 360 made a lot of the titles on the list moot.
