9.0 for a game with virtually no story, it PROVES just how damn good the gameplay is on this game and its fun fun fun all the way.

Imagine if Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 actually had a full story to go alongside the already awesome gameplay, their scores would be immensly high.

Why does L4D need a story?  Some things are better without them.

Was Tetris Worlds better because they tried to put a story on that?

What about Bomberman Zero?  Was that better because they tried to add a story to it?

Would Super Mario Galaxy be better if they gave it Paper Mario's story or would that story destroy the pacing of the game?

fair point, but its not like you could muster up a story for the likes of bomberman and tetris.

i cant see any problem with Left 4 Dead having a meaningful and long story to it whilst playing offline, and just keep the story away when playing the excellent multiplayer online.

Left 4 Dead could potentially have a huge story, what caused the humans to become infected, the origins of the substance that caused it ect ect.
