Left 4 Dead really is an incredible package. It's claustrophobic and sinister, yet utterly action packed and arcadey at the same time. It's completely gorgeous, yet the visuals serve the gameplay at all times, whether that's through subtle changes to the presentation to alter the mood, or the fact that you're playing so much of the game at the end of a flashlight. The zombies may be cannon fodder, but they're action movie cannon fodder - the horde are superbly animated, whether they're sprinting at you, climbing fences and leaping between rooftops, or stumbling as their bodies are riddled with bullets before slumping (even more) lifeless to the ground. Valve really does have a hit on its hands with Left 4 Dead. See you online.

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.

its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
He wants to launch all his projects initially through close beta.
Awesome review as always nothing less was expected .Best co-op ever loads of fun.
best game ever
they give graphics a 9 and lasting appeal an 8, it should at least be the other way around.
The multiplayer is easily one of the best gaming experiences I have ever had. Of course I'm a horror guy as you can see from my avatar so this is easily up my alley. I suggest any fan of the horror genre to do everything possible to play this game.
I've been loving every minute of it in my limited time of play. I've definitely found that teamwork is a must in this game. Try to play rambo, and you're as good as done, no matter how good you are.
I'll just be happy when I actually am able to play through a chapter all the way without people leaving. Playing all the way to the end just to end up by yourself with bots, or people that don't have a mic and just run around while a smoker is dragging you to the other side of the map is frustrating. Seriously, some people really need to learn how to stick together as a team.
