Absolutely amazing multiplayer experience.
User Rating: 8.5 | Left 4 Dead PC
First off, it must be said that this game should only really be played with at least 3 other people. After playing with others, the computer simply does not cut it. They will refuse to help you when you get into the roughest of situations, causing much frustration. However, with 4 human players, the game becomes an experience like no other. It encourages like no other game before it to make sure each and every member is accounted for and to help anyone in need of assistance. Success in the campaigns requires the cooperation of every player. The levels are exquisitely designed and the action is among the most intense of any game in existence. Zombies will run after you with inhuman speed and will no doubt illicit hilarious panic responses in some gamers. The game really shines in vs. mode, where two teams take turns on a series of stages, one side taking control of the game's protagonists and the other playing any of 4 "special" zombies. Strategy becomes a focal point on the zombie side as you must utilize the particular strengths of your randomly appointed zombie to stop the human players from reaching their safe zone. The biggest downfall of the game lies in its poor single player experience (although it may not be a problem initially if you haven't played with anyone else yet) and a very small number of campaigns to choose from. This will probably be fixed in the future if the developers release new material. This game gives you an unforgettable experience and revolutionizes team gameplay.
