Left 4 Dead isn't made by Valve - Valve just bought the formerly independent dev that's making the game.

Oh, and you're an idiot and these comparison threads suck. Since that's what you seem to want me to say.

Check the facts, please, and quit the name-calling.

Valve was helping development back in Jan '06 on Left 4 Dead...while helping Turtle Rock, they bought them...now Valve helps them even more.  Turtle Rock operates from their original location most of the time, but they communicate and work with Valve every day over their own network, and Valve sends people to work with them...it has always been a joint project, only now Turtle Rock is simply part of Valve.

And I'm much more excited about Left 4 Dead than Resistance 2, but I don't own a PS3 anyway.  Left 4 Dead is really one of the first online 4 player co-op shooters, built extensively and exclusively for co-op play, compared to a few others that just have it as a throwaway option.  Plus it has zombies.  Plus it has a revolutionary AI director that controls the flow of the game on any map, custom or normal, it works all the time.  Plus you can be the zombies.  It's all sweet.

I'm definitely getting both games myself and I believe if you love Left 4 dead, then you'll enjoy the Resistance 2 co-op as-well. It has an 8 player online co-op with its own campaign. I don't know if it will be worth burning 450$ over, but you may want to consider it.
