Have you played this game? The fact it has little story is a + in my book.

  • 20 new weapons/items including the Frying pan, the Axe, the Chainsaw
  • 5 campaigns
  • All 5 campaigns available on VS at launch
  • 4 NEW survivors
  • 3 NEW special Infected including "The Charger"
  • New multiplayer game mode
  • Go deeper into the story


Thanks for posting this seece.


For more info. on the background of the new survivors, new gameplay dynamics and the story check out this interview podcast with one of the devs - http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2009/06/01/left-4-dead-2-exclusive-podcast-with-chet-faliszek/


- on the new weapons - my concern here is balance, last thing I want is a team on expert or versus where one person decides they want to experiment with the most useless weapon, so hopefully all weapons have a role to play.
- 5 new campaigns - simply not enough, the original is seriously lacking in content despite replayability and the (imo) superior versus mode, I was hoping for something in the region of double the content.
- new survivors - I don't really mind, because there is so little story or dialogue in the original I don't really care if they change them.
- new infected - great news, although again hopefully well-balanced, because the more infected you have available the more difficult it will be to balance.
- new mode - the best news to come out of this, wonder what it is :o
- story - also great news, this is one of my main criticisms of the original.

Awesome thanks, I'm gonna check that out now.

Yes, I played Left4Dead on my 360. Played co-op with a friend and was very dissapointed the game. The no story part was the biggest turn off for me. He didn't like the fact that basically every campaign was the same but with diff backgrounds.
