Dead Rising is looking good.

dunno how mmo's work, but if you die, it'd be nice if you could loosely direct a little horde of zombies - rather than controlling one directly.
that'd keep the numbers up and avoid what might look like super-skilled zombies standing out in a crowd.

oh and you cant go without the bigtitted victim class

Here's a compromise: an all round class, made up of what once used to be ordinary civillians. They can work on any set of abilities, but never become quite as good as a specialised class.

Ha, good idea

How do you see players coming back to life? After a set period of time you respawn or something?

don't know - maybe you'd have to kill someone to earn a respawn, or achieve some other useful thing for the zombie cause
- like attracting a large horde, destroying the barricades around a hospital, blocking a road or getting them the right to vote.

Pff in a Zombie game everyone should start out like humans and if you die you turn into a zombie.

And then have these special Skeleton Squad units that strip down dead zombies to their bones and bring the bones back to life after strapping on chest armor and a missile-launcher on their shoulders and it will give them +5 vitality and +10 speed plus they have a 25% chance of placing fear amongst enemies making them dismantle from deadly group formations and the skeleton dude will basically be a rip-off of the Revenant in Doom 3 but this is how gay companies work so the name of it will be Leverant and it will be a special unlockable character once the Skeleton Squad is built and trained.

No dude skeletons suck and are only considered cool among World of Warcraft nerds.

Zombies is where it's at.

They're skeleton zombies and sometimes they fight with other zombies. Flesh and bones fly.
