Left4Dead 2 Review @ GH

Read The Review Here
________________
Left4Dead was one of the most successful multiplayer games in recent years so it made sense for Valve to follow this up with a sequel .... however a portion of the core audience felt it was a rash move to make one so quite so soon. Left4Dead2 we are happy to report however is a fantastic game and improves on the original in many ways.

Re: Left4Dead 2 Review @ GH

Good review. It's good to hear the single player portion of the game is better.

How long is a playthrough a campaign in single player mode?

Did you invent the teamwork award for this review, or did it exist before?

Thanks, but I think I'll wait for L4D3, which should be announced at E3 2010.

It has been in operation for quite some time. The last Operation Flashpoint earned it as well. If you click the last banner in the review there is a detailed description of all the awards and their meanings.

Re: Left4Dead 2 Review @ GH

i got the game yesterday and passed it..

While the aspect of killing zombies and whatnot isn't bad...

i really thought it was a bit of a poor game.

Loved serious sam, specially co-op, this game.... i'm rather disappointed with it. (the AI in it is retarded to)

just my opinion.

Re: Left4Dead 2 Review @ GH

Serious sam was great, I actually think Left4Dead2 plays a lot like it with the hordes of units. Not sure the point about AI, they are zombies, not rocket scientists.

When the game was released the market was flooded with FPS games that were all too serious and moving to the tactical aspect. When Serious Sam appeared it was a breath of fresh air from the earlier days of first person gaming (not the very first mind you, the 80s first person games were more slow and almost adventury). You could just focus on the shooting part and not care about anything else or much thinking. Plus it looked awesome on its day and played even on not top of the line PC. All that from an unknown small team from Croatia which just a few years ago was at full war. Pretty impressive if you ask me.

Re: Left4Dead 2 Review @ GH

I live in Aussieland and instead of worrying about my decapitations being left out I decide to play the first one for this instead I can still see the last arms and legs flying off onto the ground from my potshot machine gun.

Re: Left4Dead 2 Review @ GH

I got this yesterday for $25, close to my ideal price of $20. If anyone wants to play just contact me on Steam (check the DH Steam thread for my name) or send a PM.
