Why wouldn't people buy it?
I loved the first one, played the demo for the second. It played great and I love the new features, but ultimately it comes down to this:

Same Engine
Same Graphics
New Weapons
New Levels
New Characters

Sounds like an expansion, not worth a $50 investment when I am still tackling Dragon Age and AC2 comes out today too. Not worth the $$$.
Also new gameplay elements, new gametypes and new enemys. Sounds like most other sequals to me, and nothing wrong with the Source engine.

Expansions tend to have a hell of a lot less than this. You're basically saying because they haven't upgraded the graphics it should be an expansion.
Okay, so I'll admit; it was my bday yesterday and a good buddy gifted l4d2 to me over steam and we played through a couple chapters of the first campaign on realism mode and its pretty friggin cool....

It looks fun and all, but I got bored of L4D so gonna assume I will get bored of this too. Will not be picking it up.

Aww, that sucks pretty bad. I hope you get it fixed soon. Have you tried to clear it completely? Bring a priest and some holy water then reinstall Windows then try to do some searches to find out where the problem lies. I feel sorry for your loss :(. Good luck getting it fixed and I hope you'll be able to enjoy your games!
Yeah, I've tried that. Actually, in the past week or two, I've reformatted it three times. If I have time tomorrow, I'm taking it apart and cleaning everything, then going to try to find the model number on the motherboard since it doesn't seem to exist...

I think I came in my pants at some point during the rock concert, probably after I killed that tank with a guitar.

I'm only buying because i don't have the first.
Though, by the looks of things i'd be better off getting the first one instead.
We'll see.
Yeah, you'll probably be better off buying the first.

You get 1 less campaign, 14 less weapons, 3 less SI, 5 less UCI, 2 less game modes and easier crescendo events.

Sounds like a smart idea to me.

I'm saying, it looks like a better game, & why start playing on the 2nd game?
There was no need for the sarcasm was there?
No.

I'm not getting it because of the lack of Xbox but a question to those who are getting it (2 really)

1: are baseball bats standard, in-game weapons?
2: Who, while using the bat, will shout "Bonk!" with each hit?
Baseball bats are pre-order ONLY weapons, but if you play a round with someone who pre-ordered, you get to use the bat that round.

No I will not shout bonk.... >.<

Because they are whining jerks who still believe in the spirit of the L4D2 boycott? Or maybe they're just poor...

BRING ON THE ZOMBIES I SAY!
Not to nitpick, but technically they're "infected".

But yeah, definitely buying it for Christmas this year.

I payed 24 euro's with all the preorder discounts; and tbh. this isnt what I expected, it is much much better.
Play Dark Carnival, or Hard Rain and tell me this game is a glorified expansion again; for this price you can't get much better imo.

They are Zombies, and I won't accept anything else! Fanboy arrogance: ACTIVATE! *shielded from the truth*

According to the Australian OFLC they're 'living infected people who the characters must kill to score points' or some stupid shit liek that

Took about 45 minutes for Steam to sort itself out last night (I kept having to close it and reopen it, cause it would keep making it to various points of working but usually fail.)

Once i got in, i had a couple of issues getting into a game (first one got into the lobby, got 4 people, started loading the game and then got kicked back to the main menu JUST as the game said it was loaded)..

FINALLY got going and played through the shopping mall campaign (think it's called "Dead Center"?)

To say that this game is an improvement in everyway possible over it's predecessor (which i loved) is an understatement. The melee weapons are just incredible.

I picked up a ninja sword and just waded into the horde and OMIGAWD was it awesome. I was the frickin' Master Ninja, taking out any special infected that came along with gusto and style.

Absolutely love this game, so far. Love it.
