Disgraced 1123 Posted July 2, 2012 Zed is just the way that the letter Z is said in French. I THINK that the term (in reference to zombies), came from the book "World War Z" although it may predate. My fiancée is half French-Canadian and she says zed instead of Z all the time, even when zombies are not involved. In fact, she dislikes the term in relation to zombies, despite loving zombie games.

You'd see them inching across a field you'd just crossed, unable to stop wanting to kill that one guy that shot a gun when you were both ten villages over. If only he'd slow down and give a guy a chance... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
