Inspired by UC4 talk, it got me thinking that I actually really like them.

For me, Shenmue 1 and 2 are awesome. I also loved Silent Hill Shattered Memories.

Cursed Mountain was pretty cool as an experience even if the combat was iffy.

LA Noire felt like a walking sim and I hated it.

How about you guys?

Was going to say Uncharted 4 when I read the title but GG covered that.

Gears of War drove me nuts whenever it would limit your movement for a chat.

I'd argue they're not really walking simulators.  More like 'hoverboard simulators', as it's less of a stroll and more of a gliding.

That's assuming the only aspect of walking is movement of the legs, and not things like freedom of movement. You should actually be arguing with the thread's title as well, as most walking simulators are much more like gliding simulators than wheelchairs are, given you're controlling a perspective that floats through the air with no tactile connection to the ground.
