    @Serious Gamer

    Definitely get another 360! All of Valve's console games are either exclusively on it or only good on it! In case you don't know Valve is the developer who created Half life and Left 4 Dead and portal.

  • LURCH87

    although i might as well get part 2 instead

    Pure fun. In this day and age when games are either trash, mediocre, or grand epics, it's nice having a game I can just pick up and play for fun and the end of a long-a** day. The first "pure fun" game I've played since Star Fox 64. Total buzzkill right at the end there btw. Haha.

    good reviewer, L4D sucks if you play it alone, but go online or splitscreen for co-op, versus, survival, whatever, and its a B@D@$$ game that anybody should play.

  • matt_teh_gamuh

    Posted Aug 5, 2009 7:27 am PT

    and i dont think you can compare it to resident evil there really different besides zombies lol

  • matt_teh_gamuh

    Posted Aug 5, 2009 7:26 am PT

    not much strategy just mobs of zombies, but the boss zombies make up the whole team work thing, good game

    Kool game. I like it

    This game is a [zombie] riot! No wonder it was always rented out at the video store. I'm glad I bought it! Blasting away at a rushing horde of fast feral zombies is scary, exhilarating and hilarious. You'll say "holy crap" so many times! So many ways to die. So much need for teamwork and organization. This game is truly spot on. I'm glad someone finally made a survival zombie game right. I was never a fan of the awkward "I can't move while I shoot" retardness in the Resident Evil franchise (although they were very cool stories).

    Drop dead..... GOREgeous!

    Resident Evil, Step Back! there's a new survial horror on the streets and survival it is. Immersing yourself in a survivor of a zombie apocolipse has never been so intense. In Left 4 dead you are faced with an endless amount of undead waiting to tear you apart at every single corner you turn and this truely adds to the "survival horror" experience. There's always an eery feeling in this game due to the lack of lighting, making your torch light all the more precious when roaming the barron wastelands of abandoned cities. However, the most heart thumping sound of this game is a little girls cry.... where from?....and the torch gets turned off. People who have played this game know the score, but the ones who haven't are in for some Sleepless nights. The overall objective is to survive each scenario and escape the nightmare in which you have found yourself, this game truely takes on a whole new feel when you go online. Having actual people playing the survivors along side you feels reasuring, however you always wonder if a "bad player" would be willing to sacrifice you to escape....it happens, so know who your friends are . Never has a game needed so much teamwork, with the thousands of undead pouring through widows, breaking down door's making you feel cornered no matter where you run to. the DLC and muliplayer modes this game has will stand up to the best of em and will continue to be an epic game for years to come.

    not to be mean to all those left 4 dead jukies but this game is over rated.there r only 5-6 guns 4 campaigns and the graphics arent that great.but i have to say that l4d2 looks to be so much better.
