GameShark writes: "You can consider me firmly in the camp of those who are eagerly awaiting the release of Left 4 Dead 2 next month as the original provided one of 2008's best gaming experiences. Unfortunately not everyone is so happy and take the release of a sequel to mean that Valve is no longer interested in supporting the original game. Here then, to allay your fears is Crash Course, an all new albeit shortened episode for both co-op and Versus. It offers a few entertaining moments and its shorter size makes a full Versus match more of a practical reality, but if this is what continued support for Left 4 Dead means, well, I say bring on the sequel."
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."
