Slate has an interesting piece on the increasing speed of zombies in recent movies such as 28 Days Later and the recent remake Dawn of the Dead (Dead Run - How Did Movie Zombies Get So Fast?). The author traces at least some of the inspiration to fast-paced first-person zombie shooter (aka "Survival/Horror") videogames such as Resident Evil, and not just the fact that some bad movies were adaptations of the games. Games having a cultural effect on movies. Cool.
There may be some recent games with fast zombies, but others still have the traditional slow kind. Half-Life's zombies are shufflers -- which is what made Neil Manke's "They Hunger" mods such effective nostalgia trips.
