Also, I could see how a game player could have a disconnect with the show. A game is going to have a lot more 1st person shooter action -sort of the point of a game - work your way through the zombies. A movie that devoted the same percentage of time to zombie killing would be pretty two dimensional and boring. I think they are doing a good job of telling a story where the zombies are a danger to be accounted for, but not the main focus.
I liked how they shot the episode with a lot of shots where you can see down the long corridors of the mall because, as good of a time as they are having, everyone in the audience knows what's going to happen so you're almost looking over their shoulder waiting for the inevitable. The guy waking up was the start of the ticking time bomb that we all knew was there.
