Its a FPS, launching around Halo and Call of Duty.

That is why.

Because it is, uh, four maps of co-op mindless zombie killing?

No offense, but I'm afraid L4D will follow the example of GH and many other milked-to-death franchises.

I don't know what an extra year would have done, the new campaignes already sound so much more awesome than the original's, melee weapons, new characters, new infected, 5 campaigns insted of 4, all playable online from the start, along with horde mode (or w/e its called, havn't played it yet) and a new game mode yet to be unveiled and a more fleshed out story.

Much more than 1.5

"mindless" zombie killing ... wth is the point of that comment. Its a fun game ..

and its 5 maps. and how does a 2nd game count as milked? have you done any research on this game or did you just come hear to hear your own voice -_-

You realize who is developing this right? As much whining as has occurred about how long it takes Valve to develop something, the first time they come up with a quick sequel people are already screaming about it being milked...

yet the reason i said 1.5, the first wasnt a full game but it got full credit because of who made it.

Probably because theres so many games coming out this holiday season. Im gonna have trouble picking them all up and probably most people are the same. Its sad to see L4D2 falling by the wayside but ill definatly be picking it up.

The answer is simple seece. They're a lot of good games coming out that are at a higher priority level then L4D2 this holiday.

Cause it is also on PC.

its because its a Valve game and the main platform is PC. And it will sell the best on PC.
