FYI, I am waiting for other peeps to pick up Left4Dead. I will only be buying it via Steam.

It is getting rave reviews.

Best part is that we could keep it to dtman folks only without a problem.

So why is L4D $40 on Amazon, but $50 on Steam?

Tried that on my buddy's 360. Fairly amusing.

Bought. You'll all be kicking my ass soon enough.

And I have a 3-day guest pass for anyone that doesn't own it and wants to try.

It's kinda entertaining.

And, to be honest, I don't know anything more about the game than what that says, so it's not like I have anything to add.

Zombie apocalypse you play as one of four survivors and must make you way through four different settings/campaigns.

From what I understand the campaigns aren't really long but there is an A.I. director that monitors that game and moves the zombies to different locations and in different numbers depending on how well the group is playing. So there isn't the sort of invisible line that you cross in games like doom that triggers a monsters. They come during different time and different places.

If you get tired of you vs the A.I. you can play versus mode which left four people play the humans and then four others control the different boss zombie characters and the A.I. director still controls the generic zombies.

All the campaigns are have really bad horror flick titles...

Blood Harvest
Death Toll, etc...

Four survivors try to escape & kill zombies. Each campaign has a theme, but they all end w\ the survivors escaping after they find the campaign's radio & make a last stand.

There's your normal zombies & your special zombies. During single or limited co-op play, you get to be a survivor. Online/multi means that others can be special zombies as well (from how shyte was explained to me).

Even if you die, there's places where you can respawn. Weapon selection was a bit limited (the SMG seemed useless).

I was having my best round like evar, and the server crashed.
