I'm sad that I won't be able to play Left 4 Dead. I've pretty much sworn off PC gaming after a nice 15 year or so run with it and I refuse to pay Microsoft for matchmaking services (host some goddamn servers for games and I'll think about paying for it). Here's hoping that Valve gets cracking on the PS3 ASAP because I love their games. Well, game because all they've really done is the Halflife series.

Why swear off PC gaming...?  Valve is introducing matchmaking with Left 4 Dead, and it's all free...perfect time to get back into it.



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 )

Why, because they don't develop on the PS3?

Lazy? Bias? Unfair? , uhm I think more like wise enough to not meddle with ps3. Anyway just like others have said TF2 for ps3 is more like EAs job than valves.

Why? Because they created the best FPS ever made, and the richest game pacjkage ever released? Well, that's a reason of course!



Left 4 Dead is going to be incredible, will probably take up all my time this holiday season!

 half-life best FPS ever made? hardly...i honestly do not see why people consider half-life the best. ive played it and it was OK at best. same with counter-strike. the only game that i might consider good, although its not even out yet, is left4dead. other than that game, again its not out yet but i like it so far, i have not enjoyed any game they have made. oh and they are a bunch of nerdy douchebags....just read any interview and you will see the douche within them.

And when and on what you played it?
Half Life 2 is a 2004 game. There was notting better out there in 2004.
I suppose you played the console port in 2007. 3 years later from when the original game come out!

First Half Life come out in 1998. The game had won over 50 Game of the Year awards. Metacritic score 96/100. Guinness World Records awarded Half-Life with the world record for "Best-Selling First-Person Shooter of All Time" in the Guinness World Records: Gamer's Edition 2008.

Half Life 2 come out in 2004 and earned over 35 Game of the Year awards. Metacritic score 96/100. Guinness World Records awarded Half-Life 2 the world record for "Highest Rated Shooter by PC Gamer Magazine" in the Guinness World Records: Gamer's Edition 2008.

Show me something better in FPS area?

 

 



first off i played hl2 in 2005 on the computer. i only played it because of all the hype/awards for the game that i had heard/read. and so it greatly disappointed me.

unreal tournament >> hl2
quake 4 >> hl2
doom 3 >> hl2
far cry (although barely) > hl2



I agree that Unreal Torunament is better than Half Life 2, but I didn't really enjoy Doom 3. Episode 1 and Episode 2 are by far the best. They're probably my favourite FPS's of all time. I found Half Life 2 boring in parts, too many vehicle parts rather than the non-stop action Episode 1 and 2 offer.



Left 4 Dead is going to be Huge
