Why would i preorder when i have the original? Might aswell keep playing Left4Dead 1 as it looks exactly the same. Valve can do whatever they want, but this does not look like a sequel, it looks like an expansion.

I thought this came off as fishy.

Left 4 Dead 2 isn't even available for pre-order on steam yet. What pc gamer buys a Valve game from anywhere else? Think about it

This is xbox gamers shelling out their cash for mediocrity. Simple as that.

so true.

if i were a developer i would wish for a group of stupid fanboys to start petitions to boycott my game.

that will guarantee a million sells at least .. lol

People who loved the first game naturally look out for the second one.

This has nothing to do with the boycotts. Its as simple as Left4Dead having a fanbase that naturally werent there before the game released. Ofcourse it will have more preorders, but will it actually sell better? To early to tell, but i have my doubts.

Probably every boycotter has preordered, since they must have been very into the first one.

lol, no... I could try to be funny and say probably all of them, but in all honesty none of these have signed the boycott petition. Im sure many people from the boycott might actually buy the game, but they wouldnt pre order it, and definately not this early. Its not like there is any real advantage with pre orders other then supporting Valve, which im pretty sure they arent willing to do quite yet.

This is a rip-off if I ever saw one. I geuss if the PS3 lineup was that devoid of any good games L4D2 would be looking good to us too.

But really, this is nothing more than a glorified expansion pack. Just like L4D1, the value of this game will drop to under 20$ like 4-5 months after release. It's no wonder, everything about this game screams last gen, from the cookie cutter graphics to the clunky controls.

Like I said 360 owners are sheep, and the love getting ripped off. Valve doesn't have any other major titles releasing this year, so they are trying to pawn this off as a 60$ game. If I gave a damn, I would get the pirated PC version, which will probably leak like 2 weeks before the game even releases.
