But that's the thing - viewed from the perspective of the game and the plot, zombies in westerns are much more believable than zombies in sci-fi. Why? Because back then, people genuinely believed that this sort of stuff was possible! Now, with sci-fi, we have people using technical mumbo-jumbo that sounds like it belongs in Star Trek to explain how something we know today to be impossible... is happening. The explanation isn't plausible, it's just dressed up in techno-babble. And techno-babble is like cool special effects. Sure, it's nice sometimes, but it can't make up for a lack of plot or story. Space zombies from the 22nd century strikes me as far less believable than zombies from the early 20th.

Also, I really hope you didn't just spoil Undead Nightmare (which I have downloaded but haven't played yet) for me. Just saying... I'll be pretty mad.
