Forums - Microsoft - New E3 Rumor : Left 4 Dead 2

http://www.destructoid.com/rumortoid-valve-ea-to-reveal-left-4-dead-2-at-e3-next-week-133720.phtml

E3 is right around the corner, and Destructoid has been hearing all sorts of juicy rumors. A lot of things are being said, and among them a very reliable source has informed us that Valve and Electronic Arts are looking to reveal Left 4 Dead 2 at E3 next week.

L4D 2 will see four different survivors battling the infected horde as they try to survive the game's four scenarios. The game is said to be set during the same time frame and locations as the first title, but the four new survivors will be fighting off the infected in other parts of the same locations. To us, it sounds a bit like Ada sidequests from Resident Evil 4 -- while Leon was going through his mission, Ada was running around the same areas, doing her own thing.

We're also told to expect new guns, as well as a variety of melee weapons like a baseball bat, axe, and chainsaw. Players should also brace themselves to come face to face with at least one new special infected "boss" character... something big. And fast.

If what we're hearing is solid, Left 4 Dead 2 is planned for the PC and Xbox 360. While the information we received was vague, the source had been reliable in the past, and the idea of a sequel to Destructoid's 2008 "Game of the Year" was too exciting not to share. If this pans out, we hope to see more -- at least in the form of an announcement trailer -- at E3 next week.

 

Hoax or reality ?



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

wow all these rumors popping up suddenly...not long now!




A sequel with four people running around almost the same areas doing the same things? I highly doubt it.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I HOPE REALITY!!! L4D (2) BABY!!

I dont doubt that there will be Left 4 Dead stuff. I dont think it'll be L4D 2 (Could be wrong though). All I can say is that Valve WILL be making an announcement at the show.

I JUST had to share that LOL!!!!!!!1



Too soon and remember this is Valve, they like to take thier sweet time to make games.



If anything, it'll be an expansion to the original, NOT a whole new game. Left 4 Dead, Episode 1, if you will.

it sounds more like DLC than sequel.



More Left 4 Dead? That would be sweet.

Left 4 Dead was online game of the year 2008.

The more Left 4 Dead the merrier.
