Left 4 Dead 2

November 21st, 2009

I was a big fan of the first Left 4 Dead. It was sort of the perfect storm consisting of four player co-op, zombies, and addictive gameplay. Although there was a lot of controversy surrounding the announcement of the second game so soon after the first was released, I don’t subscribe to such silly notions. It’s quite ironic that the same gamers who complain that a game is taking forever to get released are upset when a perfectly good follow up is released sooner than expected, but I digress. The heart of the matter is this: Left 4 Dead 2 stands on its own two feet by surpassing the first in every meaningful way. More weapons, more zombies, more campaigns, more game modes, and more fun. Add to this the fact that you and three of your friends can get it as part of a valve 4-pack ($150 / 4 copies); there really isn’t any reason you shouldn’t pick up a copy.

Now, if you will kindly excuse me, I need to move. Everyone knows that if you stay in one spot too long, the zombies will find you.
