Xboxygen: The long-awaited by fans, Valve just released the first DLC for Left 4 Dead 2 and bearing the sweet name of The Passing. The main pitch is the DLC meeting with survivors of the first game minus one, which was finally killed after hours of fierce voodoo, threatening letters to developers and start cursing.
Over the last few weeks Gamejudgment's Emily Clarke started playing through Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2's downloadable content. Here are her thoughts.
I never bought any of the DLC, not sure why. The only reason I stopped playing was due to repeating each of the maps countless times; the DLC definately would've helped out.
Every week, there is a new mutation released on both PC and Xbox 360 for Left 4 Dead 2, but today's one (december the 3rd) is the most important to notice since it announces that community created mods is striving to make its way for the Xbox gaming with the next week's upcoming mutation:
Mutation Madness!
"As we continue to update bi-weekly, we will be incorporating some of these community Mutations. To make a Mutation, you will need to build and test your mutation on the PC but we will release them on both PC and Xbox 360. So user created content is beginning to see itself on the Xbox 360!"
Update: The Left 4 dead 2 user created mods for mutations can be enjoyed by Xbox 360 owners ONLY after buying "The passing" DLC (and Left 4 Dead 2 of course).
This sounds better : Valve:"FREE user created content is beginning to see itself on the Xbox 360!"
A step in the right direction, the mutations in L4D2 are such a good mode to play.
GO VALVE GO!!!
MS should allow Valve to give the 360 version of the game the support they want too...
hopefully when L4D is released on PS3 we will see player maps being ported into the ps3 version.
As you probably know, today is Veteran’s Day. On this special holiday, we honor the brave men and women who proudly defended their country and the rest of the free world from evil. If you have family and friends that served or currently serve in the armed forces, be sure to thank them for risking their lives.
That said, we would also like to salute the virtual heroes, the video game characters that continue to fight the good fight, so without further ago, we’re proud to present just a handful of the greatest video game war veterans of all time.

A solid list, with some great video Game war heroes. Glad to see Solid Snake and Bill in there.
