» Left 4 Dead 2 PC Review

Valve says Left 4 Dead 2 contains so much new content, it's worthy of a sequel rather than DLC. Is this true or false? Judge for yourself in today's review!

Hey, Jacob.

How about elaborating on the fact Valve promised to remedy the split in the player base from L4D1 in addition to the other promises to deliver on additional content to part 1? How many months has it been now and still nothing? All the while TF2 gets yet another update.

The majority of "new features" in L4D2 are just fluff that add nil to gameplay or content. Zombies now have parts blown off when you shoot them? You get new skins for the same old weapons? Bland voice acting and lack of depth in new cast of characters? Whooptie-F-ing-DO!

I won't be buying what was mostly suppose to be DLC for L4D1. Have fun over-paying for the "new content", even if you did buy t he 4-pack.

Hey Valve! Where's episode 3 of HL2? You haven't finished that game yet. Do you ever intend to or are you just going to continue putting out money grabbing zombie snuff games?
Don't get me wrong; I enjoy the zombie snuff but I really would like to see HL2 completed. It's been many years now...

it's probably finished, but they're waiting on portal 2 and CS:S redux to put together a red box or something. :p

I wasn't going to pick this up until I loaded the demo and found out how fucking cool the zombie gore is now. You can seriously take individual chunks out of zombies and the graphics have been brought up a notch. Hacking off heads with the machete is way too much fun.

i know! it really blew me away when i tried the demo. you heard about new SI and new guns and stuff, but the gore was a huge suprise. so great.

How did you managed to write a whole review without even touching on playing as the infected?

i dunno, but i described what the new special infected do and it's pretty straightforward from there... i made the decision not to go into much detail about the old stuff, instead focusing on what's new. i figure if you're reading this review you already know about the first game and want to know the deal with the sequel. had i been doing this a year ago, i certainly would've gone into more detail about versus, but it hasn't changed much since then.
