In Crash Course's case, it's more of a matter of whether or not you are interested in more Left 4 Dead so close to its sequel's release. As one of the few pieces (maybe the last) of new content for the original Left 4 Dead, Crash Course offers a recently deceased but still crawling warm farewell.
+ More L4D action
+ Great new meta-story to discover
+ New achievements
+/- Somewhat shorter than the original levels
- Paying for otherwise free content
Microsoft has announced that this week's Xbox LIVE Marketplace 'Deal of the Week' will not only feature a single downloadable item at a reduced price, but two. Beginning Monday, 12th April 2010, Left 4 Dead's warmly received Crash Course DLC will be available at a discounted price, alongside the Xbox LIVE Arcade hit, The Maw.
Well, if I didn;t already have Crash Course, I'd definitaly pick it up for 320 MS Points. Not too bothered about The Maw though, to be honest.
When you're interviewing Valve's self-proclaimed 'Mr Awesome', you expect some pretty forthright opinions - and not a small bit of excitement. So CVG is pleased to report that the studio's amiable Chet Faliszek offered both in abundance when we caught up with him last month.
So Left 4 Dead 2 will be on PS3 from the sounds of it.
Great news, Maybe they can do a proper game pack like Orange Box, with new titles on it properly ported. I would love to get both L4D 1 and 2 on 1 disc.
Not interested in L4D 1 or 2 - The next Half Life episode, on the other hand.... Make it happen please!
A piece showcasing the best custom Left 4 Dead campaigns interspersed with humorous sections in the character of the Vietnam War veteran Bill: "When they broke the news that we were deploying to Vienna, I didn't expect the damn 3 hour tour. I mean, it's the apocalypse – not some damn skirmish on hamburger hill, and all Zoey could think about was shopping at some fancy foreign department store."
