    I don't know if I'll be buying this. The graphics look the same, the improvements sound like they should have been in the first game, and the zombies sound exactly the same, too. The new campaigns are all that could salvage this for me.

    Famguy, you can't say that its too easy because there are literally hundreds of zombies that attack you if you went down in two hits, what would be the point? then again during the hardest difficult, its really really hard so, whatever

    Isnt it illegal for gamespot AU to show these videos since the game has been refused classification?

    Also, there is a distinction between standard zombies, of which you see just a few here (They come in huge swarms later), and zombies with special attributes that allow them to kill a survivor single handedly (with little the survivor can do about it) if the survivor becomes split from the others (or they are also overwhelmed). These special zombies could drag you toward them (and once caught, there was no way to free yourself without help), knock you to the ground (again, once knocked down, you needed someone to rescue you), 'infect' you so hordes of standard zombies could see and attack you, or even come in as a sort of 'hulk' zombie that took all the combined firepower of the team (and lots of runnning) to take down.

    It is also primarily a multiplayer game.

    You need to know a bit about how the gameplay works. The survivors are given a lot of health to begin with, making it appear easy when they can take huge punishment before dying (while on full health)

    However, the gameplay pits them against hordes of zombies while only allowing them to replenish their health partially. Thus, unlike in traditional first person shooters like Half Life 2 where the player has difficulty with individual engagements but is generally allowed to heal fully after each, in Left 4 Dead the player must economise their health all the way to the end of the level.

    This is what makes it difficult. If your team is down to half health (like this guy seems to be) just a little into the map, then you probably wont have what it takes to make it to the end

    @famguyfan2685

    In the original easy was pretty easy, but hard could be hard as hell a lot of the times. Play the demo of the first game and experience it a little before judging videos of the next one.

  • famguyfan2685

    I dunno about this one. The gameplay looks too easy for me. Maybe these clowns were just playing on the Easy setting or something. That guy just stood there and took punishment for like 5 seconds and barely got hurt. It really just doesn't look that fun to me. I never played the original, so I hope there will be a demo I'll be able to check out..

    Is L4D 2 zombies vs. zombies? 'Caus those with guns sure shoot like zombies...

    Those tips pop up in the screen. Presumably, the player just started playing, and plays on a x-box. It says a lot... Still, the game would look even better if it was a really good player demonstrating it. I will definitively got it on the PC. Looks great!

    Video games have thrill and a challenging game.Sometimes, celebrity rag tabloids and pathetic excuses for journalists like to print rumors that aren't true, like the Eddie Murphy dead rumor. The Eddie Murphy dead thing was a rumor that there was a special effects accident on set of a movie version of the video game Left 4 Dead. The rumor is over a year old, but as with so many stupid rumors, it keeps getting spread. For the record, Paul McCartney was never dead either, and reports of Mark Twain's death (at one point, anyway) were greatly exaggerated. (He did, however, die later.) When rumors like Eddie Murphy dead start making their rounds, that's when it's time to get a cash advance and find something to do. read more click http://personalmoneystore.com/Cash-Advance/

    Happy they got new weapons I think its the same game though with some new baddie bosses also perhaps - more maps online will help also. Wanted to be able to make my own character shouldn't need to use the same ol same ol like the last since they are perform the same. Makes the game have more grab if you are able to unlock and make your own character other then that the online mode had no rewards. No rewards - no fun.

    Must be single-player. The other characters don't seem to be able to keep up with the player.

    @xanisk89

    kinda is iron sights make the game much more realistic not much of a fan of valves engine zombies look a little cartoony

  • SOUTHxSYDExKING

    Posted Jul 26, 2009 5:58 am PT

    I know that the game companies are suppose to communicate with the fans...like in CoD4, Halo, Fable, Lost Planet, etc. They shouldnt get taken over by fans and let them decide on what the game should be.

  • SOUTHxSYDExKING

    Posted Jul 26, 2009 5:56 am PT

    Looks like the same old L4D but with more weapons and zombies and all. Thing is you people who complain about them doing this in the game doing that in the game, dont take out this from the game just take out all that from the game....etc.................it rushes the game production thus the game is rushed and it is nowhere near good. i mean it looks like L4D with new content maps, like as if i payed 16 microsoft points for this.......... honestly. In halo as well, people wanted another halo game, people wanted it to come out sooner, WTF! Now look at the game (im not sayin the game is bad or anything, i love it) they are using the same graphics engine from Halo 3, if they had time and fan that could wait they would have made a better engine and just think how amazing the graphics would have been. i mean look at the difference from halo 1 to halo 2, from halo 2 to halo 3.................people just hold your money, mark the date on the calander and wait for the game to come out............dont go on the internet and start all this crap about what they should do to the game......

    Posted Jul 25, 2009 4:04 pm PT

    Ok seriously do anyone of you "boycotters" read what they're putting into this game? "oh looks like the same shi* as L4D". umm really? New weapons? New Infected? Way bigger campaigns? New AI generator? New multiplayer mode? Do you have shi* for brains? Seriously quit your whining, some of you I bet buy new sports games every year they come out, and those have less improvements than this. Seriously reevaluate your argument...and go buy your shi**y Madden 10, ooo the changed some colors!

    @ king_chapeton15 No, it does not. It plays a lot like counter-strike, which isn't a bad thing.
