Valve’s Gabe Newell may have his head up the rear-end of an Xbox 360 (and pumping out good titles for it too) but that doesn’t mean the PS3 won’t be getting similar games to Valve's renown 360 exclusives. In this particular case, all rumors of Left 4 Dead on the PS3 can be put to rest because a budget-priced PSN title by the name of Dead Nation is pretty much an isometric replica of Valve’s famed zombie-shooter.

Unless you’re literally a first-person junkie, the need to play Valve’s zombie-shooter on the PS3 is no longer needed. Gamers can get their fill of shotgun pumping, machine gun blasting, pistol whipping action from the overhead, 3D shooter. Dead Nation. The game is a lot like High Voltage’s cult-classic, Hunter: The Reckoning, insofar that hordes of zombies flood the screen all at once.

There is a little bit of physics play involved and more blood, gore and body dismemberment than Valve can shake a headless zombie at. Some decent multiplayer will round out the experience and pretty much make Left 4 Dead on the PS3 an obsolete afterthought.

Now the good part about this news is that this PlayStation Network exclusive is coming soon to a PlayStation Store near you (which means you have to own a PlayStation 3 to get this game, duh). And you can check out a debut trailer for the game below if you need a little bit of encouragement for getting excited.

IDK about all that i still would want a L4D ps3 port

When i first saw the video it looked like an arcade version of L4D. Though i hope its nothing like it, since L4D isnt a good game imo. I liked SuperStardust HD and i hope they deliver once more.

While Dead Nation looks amazing, Left 4 Dead is also an epic game.

Left 4 Dead on any console is a good thing.

It looks good, but comparing this to a full priced retail title is ridiculous.

Hell no, Left 4 Dead is a first person shooter, this is like the other version of Burn Zombie Burn with online.

looks good alot like burn zombie burn

wen i 1st saw it i thought i was watching the psn xbl game zombie apocalypse that also coming out soon

i havent played L4d cause i dont own a 360 but it looks like it appeals to my tastes but ive been hearing alot of mixed things about l4d

would like for a big scale zombie game to come to ps3 360 has 2 l4d and dead island ps3 just has dead rising 2 thats multi and a bunch of psn ones

hope dead nations turns out to be something to brag about and hope the trophies arent ridiculously hard like trash panic

This looks horrible. I hate the view maybe if it was a FPS you might have something but not this

Looks interesting

These two games are nothing alike! What are people talking about?! Are people that keen to see ps3 go head to head with the 360 that they will compare 2 games that are completely different to reach other?! Blerh.
