Wow, I've been checking L4D info nonstop, and somehow I missed these videos, thanks Sqrl.

I can't watch them right now but I'll get to them tonight. Here's one with kinda crappy quality, but an absolutely intense fight:

Left 4 Dead - Don't Shoot the Car Alarm from Nicholas Puleo on Vimeo.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Awesome video Ben! I love how they use the car alarm not only as a reason for the swarming but as a way to make the mood feel tense. Something about a car alarm just makes everyone feel tense and internally just plead for the thing to be shut off...and thats when its not attracting zombies!

The guy who was doing the talking in the GT videos made me want to kick him off the PC and take his place....he was so horrible ><



To Each Man, Responsibility

Are there any videos showing people playing as the infected yet?

I'm loving this game. It looks like they were heavily influenced by 28 Days Later.



Looking pretty sweet. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

One thing I don't like is the limited vision you have with the flashlight. For whatever reason, it hurts my eyes when games have pitch black all around you except for the circle that your flashlight illuminates.

*edit* are there any videos where a Witch gets activated and decimates the players? I've heard that you don't want to get too close to her, but I still haven't seen any footage of what happens should you approach her.

Wish they released it already, I wouldn't mind installing patches until the end of this year.



That car alarm video is insane! I can't wait for this. I even forgive them for changing the character models.



Awesome vids! Thanks.



Tease.

I know there is somewhere but I don't remember where...sorry =/

Basically she has the health of a tank, the melee damage of a tank, and the speed of a hunter including very fast attacks and some devestating "special" moves.  In short you don't want to mess with her if you can avoid it.



To Each Man, Responsibility

She basically sprints at the player and knocks them out in one hit. You can take her down fairly quickly, but she's guaranteed to knock someone down to no health if you anger her.

There's a couple videos with the witch...she has a placeholder skin currently, so it's just an all-white model...clearly not the final design.

I'll post some more cool videos I can find later tonight.
