Forums - Microsoft - Dead Space vs. Left 4 Dead...

Which is a better game, iyo?  I am not really into zombie games that much but TOB has taught me a different way to go about it instead of just endless waves of the undead.  Thanks for any opinions and comments.

Left 4 Dead. Its not exactly a scary game, but it sure as heck is one of the best Zombie games ever made.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Dead Space is undeniably better SP. L4D is better MP. In a sense, they are practically two different kinds of games. DS is a survival/horror game. L4D is a zombie party game. =)

Drinking beer is, perhaps, not a good idea while playing DS.  Drinking beer while playing L4D with your friends can be fun. ;)



 

Dead Space is a better game in every way (production values, graphics, story, etc.). Though, it doesn't mean that Left 4 Dead is a bad game (probably overpraised because it's a Valve game though). Left 4 Dead is a good "arcade style" game that has more replay value.

Both games have that scary atmosphere, but I think EA did a better job with Dead Space (don't worry, both games are not that scary! ;) ).

With all that said, it depends if you prefer a good single player or a good multiplayer game.



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...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Yeah.  I figured I would have a buy both response.   Too many great games not enough money.  Well, enough $ but I'm just a cheap bastard, lol.

Preferably both a la, COD4.  But those are the diamonds in the rough.

 



I tried the Dead Space demo and didn't like it at all. Saved myself $60.



Currently playing on PS3: God of War III

Currently playing on Xbox360: Final Fantasy XIII

Currently playing on NDS: Chrono Trigger

The demo doesn't give the game justice. It isn't even a real part in the game.

God, I hope EA didn't lose any more sales because of that!

I disagree, I wasn't a huge Valve fan until L4D. :P

 



Left 4 Dead is awesome! I downloaded the DS demo but didn't go much on it.
