Theres acouple of upcoming PC Games that revolve around zombies. They maybe coming out sometime soon. Some don't have dates but seem to be progressing.

Dead Island (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/deadisland/index.html)
Dead Island is an upcoming videogame being developed and published by Techland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techland) for the Xbox 360 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360) and Microsoft Windows (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows) and possibly the PS3. It is an open-ended game centered on survival and trying to find the protagonist's wife on a zombie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie)-infested island. The game uses a first-person perspective; however, the developers are claiming that the game should not be labeled a first-person shooter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-person_shooter) due to a bigger emphasis on melee combat and ammunition conservation, rather than a shoot 'em up.
The website is currently under reconstruction. Techland are also currently working on a Playstation 3 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playstation_3) compatible version of the game, news of which was announced during an interview with the games developers. I think this will be another Fallout which i think it will be great.

George Romero's City of the Dead
Seem really no info on describing it but there are acouple of trailers for the game and I'm hoping it wont be an epic fail like Land Of The Dead. Probably goning to be like LOTD but we all hope better.

Okay it is goofy, but that doesn't stop it from being fun. Steam has an demo that lets you play for an hour.
