I've played both games, R2 and L4D, and I just cannot endorse R2 (which I played first). Sure, there are some nice big enemies in L4D, but outside of those scripted battles, I found the game derivative of every other FPS. Almost any weapon has some type of explosive? Black. Main character with a disease that gives him cool powers but threatens to take him over? Far Cry. Recharging health? Sure, they give a reason for it, and a lot of games have it, but that doesn't mean it didn't steal the idea from Halo.
I also, for some reason, couldn't get into the coop very much. Just found it dull--run over here, bunch of random bad guys pop out, shoot them, run over there, kill zombies, repeat. No sense of purpose whatsoever.
Left 4 Dead is a completely unique experience--leave your partners and you're dead, your enemies are much different than typical FPS fare, and its' infinitely replayable due to the innovative AI Director.
Long story short, Left 4 Dead 4 me.
