+1 For 28 Days/Weeks Later. The entire time I was playing TLOU I couldn't help but but feel like there was an extremely strong 28DL influence. Like you said, the music, sights, the dreariness and barrenness of the wasteland, and of course the fact that the "zombies" were actually living infected humans. 28DL also very strongly played off of the idea that humans are the real monsters. The survivors became very adept at dealing with the infected, but it was a VERY different situation when they met the soldiers...
I was continuously reminded of something else while playing as well. Did anyone else notice that, with the obvious exception of zombification, the cordyceps infection/growth bares an almost uncanny similarity to a certain episode of Fringe? I swear that was where they got the idea from.
