Also, 360? It hopefully will be a quality title on the 360, and if that's your option, definitely get this game.

But I will continue to highly recommend the PC version of Valve games over console options...they're very scalable (work well on older PCs), and they're simply designed best for a keyboard and mouse, as well as Steam's features...including a Matchmaking service they plan on rolling out with Left 4 Dead. It'll be a feature that matches you with people of similar skill and experience, and they'll roll back this feature into many other games, like TF2 and CS...it'll be very helpful.


But other than that, the main reason to go PC is that they'll support PC the most with patches and updates. If you want the exclusive "shopping mall" level that you just KNOW is going to be released a couple months after the game comes out, you'll be SOL on the consoles, unless things change.

As for the cinematic qualities, I have no problem with them; it's their artistic choice. Film grain in Mass Effect kinda bothered me, but if it works in Left 4 Dead I'll keep it. I liked what I saw in these videos, other than maybe a little too much black and white...the colors should come back a little I would think.

 

Congratulations for Valve, they are implementing something that Live has had since the original XBox, and sadly, voice communication is not quite as ubiquitous on pc(edit: hardly at all) as it is on Live, which seems like something that will be very useful for the co-op play.  Keyboard and mouse is better though, and I have never cared for mods because the vast, vast majority are shoddy shit.
