I'd recommend this as the one game that anyone that likes games should play. The visuals and atomosphere will blow your mind. I've gotten pretty far into it now, and some of the rooms I've seen just bewilder me that they are actually in a game. Plus on top of that the game is scarier than the other resident evils and I hear its around 30 hours long! (I did'nt belive it at first, but I'm already 10 hrs. in and I'm still on disc one.)
About the zombies, yes they are still there, BUT they are many times smarter. The zombies now talk, evade gunshots, run and try to rush you, hide to suprise you, use weapons and even cooperate to trap or flank you. The A.I. is simply astounding. And since you can aim now you can shoot a zombie wherever you like. They have somewhere around 50 reaction animations depending on where you shoot them. You can try for those lethal headshots or you can simply shoot out their knees and cap their head while they sqwirm on the ground. On top of that you can also shot off body parts. So if a zombie is holding an bothersome pitchfork then you can shoot off their right hand so that they can't use it anymore; the same also applies for legs. But it's not as simple as it sounds, if a zombie catches on that you're trying to disarm them then they'll either rush you or better yet, THROW THEIR WEAPON AT YOU! It sucks when some of the later zombies chuck a scythe at you!
But all in all, if I were you I'd get this game and get ready to bask in it's outright perfection.
