Forums - Gaming - I'm upset with the Left4Dead box art...

There ya go hehe.

Also the players are right-handed...



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
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 )

Meh its alright. Guess it could be worse.

Hope people don't think its a game about trying to find your missing thumb haha.



So is this game coming out on ps3 or not because if I remember correctly EA listed it as multi-plat for their E3 showing.



Feel free to add me as your friend-PSN ID: Bobo012893

The box uses the right hand.

Lame.

So, this missing thumb hand is a player's hand, and not a zombie's hand?

Thank you for showing me the light! I swore that was a zombie!

Edit: A disfigured right hand suits this well, no?

 

No, but since they were going for the pun with the 4, why not put a left hand on the cover?

Left4Dead -> 4 player characters
Left4Dead -> Release date November 4th
Left4Dead -> All player character left handed
Left4Dead -> Left hand on the box

Really?  I could have swore I read somewhere they were left.  Oh well, it still would have been clever to make the hand a left hand.

Yeah, I don't really care hehe.

But in every video so far, the gun is on the right, and they throw with their right hands.

It's a right hand because the majority of people are right hand dominate and so most zombies would be right hand dominate and be reaching with that hand.

But I agree it would be another thing they could use for their play on words but not as noticeable as the 4 thing.

The PC version is going to be better for sure though.

Me... I hate when everybody is a lefty.

It happens in Front Mission 1-4 and it pisses me off. All playable Wanzers equip their weapons on their left hands via default.

That just doesn't make any sense statistically.



I think that may be the first game I end up buying off of Steam because that box art is so fugly I don't want to look at it.

 

edit: maybe that is what they want, an ugly box art so more people are inclined to buy it off of Steam where they get more money.



So... A box art now decides which version of the game will be most successful (looking at some people's comments)?

All I can say about it is this: It feels zombi-ish with the green color, which is good. They also got four fingers up, which represents the 4-player coop feature, cool. It has the Valve logo on the bottom right corner, nice. So, they pretty much got the concept!

I mean, can it be worse than this (it doesn't even make any sense, by the way):

?

(sorry for raping this thread with this horrible box art)



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...
