I think you're being pretty hasty Miyazaki, we know very little about this game at the moment. If it manages to pull off what looks to be a pretty unique concept (and maybe gets some better box art :D) the name Bethesda alone will probably sell this game. Especially if it comes out after Fallout 3, when the name is fresh in people's minds. I don't understand how you can say that their connection is "irrelevant" just because they're not the developer. I'd hazard to say that 80% of game buyers don't know the difference between a developer and a publisher anyways.
As far as Zombie goes, yeah, they're a bit of a no name but as spraydad pointed out, they do have a bit of history. I'm not sure how much they had to do with America's Army but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say they probably know a thing or two about making a tactical shooter.
