...Not. "Meh *shrug*." is suitably apt for this one too. Special Ops?.. my butt. Same old blast the face off each other in multiplayer...not bad but nothing special. Can't even bind keys to a joypad on the PC version, by the time I'd got used to the keys again...the game was over. Deffinately play it on hardened, lasts a tad longer, mainly because you get killed more. Nice game but well over hyped. Roll on L4d 2 next week.

Oh, yeah? Lol...have to admit it's a bit refreshing to hear someone else give it a "Meh"

I'll just borrow someone's copy first and see how it goes...
Ooo! Now Left for Dead 2....yeah...*nodding*

I recommend you stay clear of driving games if you don't really dig....erm...driving?.

Granted, everybody is entitled to their opinion and who can argue with one as well thought out and explained as yours.

whats driving have to do with left 4 dead? i dunno if this is your fave game or something you sound insulted. although seeing as this is just a message board i dont really feel i owed anyone a thought out explination because i wasn't trying to get into a debate. its just personal preference. my friend i was playing with didn't like it either. graphics were not that great. to hard to kill the enemy when your playing as a zombie on online play and to easy to get killed when your a zombie as well. also in the game i played once you got killed you were out for the round, i thought this was pretty lame. once again this is personal preference. to be fair i dont play video games very much in comparison to some of you guys.

Good game, slightly over-rated imo. The mutli-player however is awesome, and may even worth the buy alone. Trying to mount up more and more kills is stupidly addictive.

Driving has nothing to do with L4D, sorry if that was too cryptic and and went over your head...erm...If you don't like apples, don't eat an apple?. Apples also have nothing to do with L4D.

As for insulted, dude....it's a game, nothing more. A 'co-op' team game by the way, the versus is just a bit of extra fun. The graphics (to you) might not be that great, but then, they're not that bad either and create an accurately good atmosphere for the type of game it is. Which, considering nobody is actually shooting at you, is a welcome break from the unending punk pogo infront of another player, trying to get the lucky shot off...that most first person multiplayers ultimately boil down to. Unless you can throw knives over buildings, but try that shit in a deathmatch and see how many times you pull it off. Anyway, before I waste anymore time, if all your honest opinion can muster is 'It's shit' then yeah, ok, thanks for the input....deffinately worth the paper it's written on.

Have you seen the previews trailer for L4D2, it looks fucking awesome man. Graphic violence, humour, zombies. Kinda like Belfast on a saturday night eh?
Check out this gameplay...AWESOME to say the least.
