Looks like L4D is an early contender for most overrated game of the year.

If by "overrated" you meant "underrated," I'd agree.

Also, keep in mind just how different these 2 games are. Left 4 Dead is a multiplayer only game that will probably retail for $40. It's not supposed to have "kick-ass graphics" though it will definitely impress in various ways when the final version is released. It's the perfect co-op online shooter...it's the next Counter-Strike...it's the first cooperative zombie shooter...whatever you want to label it as...it's far from overrated. Hell, Will Wright mentioned AI Directors as one of the more important moves in recent gaming history. And if I trusted anyone to come out with a more sophisticated online FPS AI system, the makers of the CS: Source bot are already on their way.

Resistance 2 also has a lot going for it, it's made by one of the best console developers...I don't keep up the news for the game though so I won't try to talk about it.

Will Wright said that eh?  Neat.  Glad i'm not alone in thinking that.  I mean if it works... the applications for other games could be amazing.
