So,L4D2.

I didn't really like L4D, and L4D2 doesn't look like I will have fun for long either. With L4D I just played it through and moved on to something good, same thing whenever an expansion came out. With L4D2 I expect the same so I will most likely not be buying this until a 50% off sale.
Yes, soon they shall join the dark side. Well, actually I think the light side because we all know Infinity Ward is the true evil one.Evilbunny said:
New characters, new maps, new game modes, new weapons, new game dynamics, new tools, and new infected. It's the biggest, most comprehensive DLC you'll ever see, which completely overhauls and improves the original, brilliant experience. For £25. Or $60. Or whatever, it's worth it.Radelaide said:
I'd be better to buy it on the PC but I assume that your PC would run and hide at the thought of the game. If you like the original and though it was worth the money then this is defiantly worth it. Otherwise it's hard to say.
lets put it this way. It took valve a long ass time to make it, how could it not be more worth than dlc 
There was nothing wrong with the old dynamics. In fact, after playing the game, I think that the AI has gotten worse, there are TOO many zombies, the campaigns are boring. The rest of the stuff (weapons, maps, modes) can all be done through DLC. Valve sold out.haruvister said:
Ok, here goes...
Left 4 Dead 2 is another Molyneux game.
Taken at face value, for anyone who didn't know/read/hear about what it was going to contain...it is an unbelievably awesome game. I had a lot of fun playing it, and there were some seriously intense moments, particularly in Hard Rain, during the storms in the second half of the map. The guns are fun to use, very nicely detailed, and function fairly close to how they would in real life (minus the lack of recoil).
Taken from the perspective of a gamer who read the previews, promises, and even paid money for the pre-order...it's a complete let-down. Valve promised that there would be an updated AI Director 2.0 who would 'punish' the players for doing well by summoning more special infected, more hordes, less items and ammo, change the level to make the Survivors have a LOT more trouble...and so on. There would be places in the game that would change every playthrough, so you never had one set path to plan for. Also, there would be 'dynamic weather', where the weather would change, day would turn to night (based on real, EST time), and there were (admittedly rumored) partially destructible environments. None of these things are in the actual, finished game.
Take it for what you will, but in my opinion, Left 4 Dead 2 really did come out to be Left 4 Dead 1.2. It's a great game and all, I had a blast playing it. But it's not what it could have been...what it SHOULD have been.

Demo was okay. Did not convince me to buy nor pre-order. Will wait until price drops or one of those half-price off weekends.
If you hate fun this is not the game for you.
Seriously, you can kill a zombie by shoving him off a building while holding a garden gnome, take the gnome to a rock concert and kill zombies with a guitar on stage while fireworks go off. how can you dislike it.
I also like how people are sheep for stuff like halo odst, mw2 etc but this can not be a sequel...

YEAH! You tell em! Left 4 Dead 2 is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME from Left 4 Dead 2! It's about time SOMEBODY spoke the truth!CanOfPop said:
I think that it's worth the money. It's a good game, and I have to admit I giggled like a little kid when I got my hands on the grenade launcher or the chainsaw. There's definately a lot more to do. The only thing that I would change is the fact that the AI controlled players are useless. I was being attacked by a hunter and Ellis was just standing there watching me die.
