Right now, it wouldn't be a bad idea to make a game based on some zombie fiction. There's plenty of money to be made in such a game. A good story would be a fantastic launching point for a zombie game if put in the hands of a competent developer (like Rocksteady, creators of Batman: Arkham Asylum/City, for example). Sure, they'd be paying royalties/licensing fees for the book, but if the game is good, people will buy it, and they'll make money.
