Zero Punctuation: Left 4 Dead

"If you don't ban 'um, they won't learn nothin'"

Aaaand I'm getting that as a tattoo.

On topic, who didn't think he'd like this game? It's sweet!
I am honestly shocked, however, that he said very little in the way of negativity.

...I guess I'm just expecting him to vomit over everything in rage.
Oh well! Hooray for tearing the nipples off survivors!

Nice ZP

I want to play that game!

 

[mGoLos]

Wow, he REALLY liked this one!

Awesome game.

lol i liked the smoker joke and the gerbil in the speed bag.

 

[ralphdeeps1108]

Why did the image of the game always have a right hand instead of a left hand? Is this some kind of crazy Australian version?

 

[El Danny]

One of the best episodes for a while, the punch bag bit almost had me in tears.

I always love it when a nerd calls other people "nerds". It just..has this incredibly ironic vibe to it.

 

[FarleShadow]

I maintain that L4D is great fun...if your allies aren't stoic morons, using ingame chat is great fun with guys you know, but when they're acouple randomers, the fun numbers take a significiant dive.

Great stuff, I liked Left 4 Dead when I played the demo. Despite loads amount of zombies around you, which seemed pretty generic to me for a zombie game - well perhaps I haven't played many zombie games, the co-op element was great fun. So I guess I might as well buy get it.

Awsome review as always, Yahtzee.

The only way this review could have been better is if it was for Gears of War 2. OK, I'll shut up about Gears 2 for a minute so that I can say I didn't like the Left 4 Dead demo much and I agree that anyone who replaces the word 'for' with '4' should be shot. (Yes I know it's because it's a 4-player game but that doesn't make it clever.)

.....

Reloading!

 

[HadesWTF]

OH man. I was rolling laughing. Honestly, your more funny when you kinda like games. The Mirror's Edge comment had my rolling. Still trying to get around to Left4Dead. Oh yeah, that number thing, angers me to no end.


Here's to hoping you can get to Far Cry 2 sometime within the next year, eh Yahtzee?

 

[Ryuzaki]

A great review Yahtzee, left me wanting to play the game.

Liked the bit on the end. I guess Mirrors Edge was just that bad.

 

[Bagaloo]

Hooray, I'm currently enthralled with Left 4 Dead, and he didn't bash it too hard :3

 

[Ann-Marie]

I love this game, but I see his point.

I lost interest in the campaign levels pretty quickly, but the online is hilarious. Although, its unfortunate that I can hardly play L4D because its difficult to get three buddies you actually want to play with online at once for any lengthy period of time.

 

[runtheplacered]

Favorite part... talking about co-op and showing your teammate "schlurping" up all the ammo and health. I laughed my ass off. Good review, all around

 

[PirateKing]

That stuff about what nerds like hit a little too close to home for my liking.
I have the same complaints about Left 4 Dead and it was a huge disappointment to me, as well as the only Valve game that I don't like.
It was pretty funny as usual.

 

[Chrisos]

yahtzee is a fucking retard

Hurrah for the trolls. Yawn. Learn some erudition young chap!

I loved the comment about playing as a minor zombie while you wait, with the survival expectations of a gerbil (or was it hamster) in a speed ball full of broken glass. It certainly made me giggle anyway.

 

[darkless]

Fantastic Review haven't played L4D yet but i plan to regardless of this review But still Funny stuff as usual keep it up yatzee.

 

[Erana]

Even Yahzee agrees:
Nerdy, hot college chicks are hot.
