User Rating: 10 | Left 4 Dead X360
Ive been following this game since it's inception at E3 last year and it did not disappoint. Mad props and much respect paid to valve. Left 4 Dead takes place shortly after an infection spreads throughout the city. Now were faced with a zombie apocalypse. The game is pretty simple, get from point a to point b, but that's also where it gets complicated. On your way from point a to point b your going to have to fight through 100's and 100's of zombies. The AI of the zombies is awesome, it seems they never attack the same way twice. Around every bend is another hoarde waiting not to mention the special infected. You will have to contend with hunters who wait to pounce on you and rip you to shreds, boomers who get close to you and puke on you attracting the hoarde, a smoker who will shoot his tongue out and strangle you with it and last but not least a very very mean witch....
Amazing graphics and a killer soundtrack to boot. There were really only 2 things i would have wanted to see done differently. 1. A longer campaign 2. A bigger variety of weapons. Now i must say the on-line multi-player is something of another breed. After your finished playing solo or co-op ing through the campaign hop on live, where you take turns playing as humans and infected. Things heat up pretty quick as you try to make it to the safe room. Most of the time i forgot about the objective and just concentrated on killing everything in site (great fun). All in all left 4 dead is a great game, it's everything i expected it would be knowing that valve was behind the game. Great gameplay and extremely high re-play value make this a must have. Zombies, zombies and more zombies, how could you go wrong ?
