"Leaked" Left 4 Dead 2 Trailer Turns Up On YouTube

A "leaked" Left 4 Dead 2 [http://www.l4d.com/] trailer is making the rounds on YouTube and I have to warn you that if you're trying to maintain a healthy non-interest in the game, then you really shouldn't watch it.

I'm not ashamed to admit it: My plans for the future don't include Left 4 Dead 2. I'm not boycotting it, I'm just a cranky, miserable sort who doesn't have enough friends to fill out a Left 4 Dead roster. Hell, I still haven't bought the original game. And I was happy and secure in that decision, knowing that while the rest of the world was distracted by Valve's [http://www.valvesoftware.com/] latest chart-topper, I could get caught up on stuff like Crysis Warhead and Modern Warfare.

And then I saw this damn video [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_8hJsgZSNA&feature=player_embedded].

There aren't too many studios who can do trailers like Valve and even so, the studio has upped its game considerably with this three-minute masterpiece that's more interesting than a lot of zombie movies. So consider yourself warned: If you don't want to buy this game, you really shouldn't watch this video. And if you do happen to watch this video, well, maybe we can play online sometime.

oh Valve and their "leaked" videos

Regardless, this trailer is frickin' sweet.

And the zombie in the haz-mat suit? Interesting.

That trailer dripped with Valve's signature quality. Gotta love the subtle facial expressions, like the tiny smirk on the gambler guy when he opened the cash register. Also, I saw footage from multiple areas, including the Carnival and the bridge finale. Does this mean we get cutscenes for every campaign?

My feelings exactly... I was soooooo set to preoder borderlands and let this one slide for a few months... But fuck...


That's a low blow there Valve... That's a low blow.

Anyone else really wishing Valve would make a L4D movie like this? With these graphics and such...

You're right. That would make me want to buy the game, if I already hadn't.

And "leaked" my ass. Nothing is leaked these days.

Who's telling you to be tied down to one game? I pre-ordered Borderlands, I'll play L4D2 demo at November 3rd and maybe in December I'll buy it, if I like. And if I like those two games more than Aion currently, I might buy L4D2 in November.


Also, yes, I do want a L4D movie. Especially since all the voice-overs are so good, trailers and in-game movies also are awesome.

The kid with the cap seems to be the one the special infected target most in that trailer.
I have to agree with the zombies, he is a bit cocky.

AUGH. I didn't want to buy this game before. NOW LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE!

On a side note, if I get this, I will be playing as the bloke in the suit every time.

My wallet.

Feel free to gift me either of these on steam and I'll gladly buy the other. Otherwise, I'm making a choice here.
