You know I think this may be a new game but only because it's like the GOTY thing where Valve is trying to find a way around the DLC for consolefags. But why a whole new game?

LOL ^^ Ghey...
Imo :
I think the game will be forfilling. It would be the same game in a different country, (south) aparently. <_<. All the daylight reminds me of is RE5. I think all the games are following a similar pattern.
They probably released this becuase they were short on money..
The new boss looks like a mutated overly tall Zombie. Which is just about what all the bosses are. So that's in place.
The shown maps remind me of cs_italy on CSS, if any one knows where i'm coming from with that point.
I'm thinking, there will be some unseen twists, or perhaps someadded story line, and maybe even a bigger game. But they've ruined the box art uniqueness due to the fact that there is still 4 characters, and only 2 fingers on the hand now.

The whole games & trailers look just desperate, except for the frying pan, axe, chainsaw & what looks like a gold club or a baseball bat or something on this trailer : http://uk.pc.ign.com/dor/objects/14352245/left-4-dead-2/videos/l4d2_trl_keepfighting_60109.html .
I'm sure there will be new achievements.

The infected look a lot nicer, big improovements, but they look ugly and really not scary in the sun. Blergh. I dont know, I'm likely to buy it to see what it's like.

Hmpf, lol they should step it up a bit & actually make a story line or something, with perhaps 4 games? & have a finalle, that way they could recover from this nasty snatch, & keep in the context of the number 4...

I dont really know what to say about the game till I have played it though...


Btw, it's not just for xbox, valve announced it on steam with trailers yesterday :)... so it's for PC too :3 - If no one else got that far >.<


agreed except ill get it on xbox, btw add meh

Because the chainsaw says "Hale Pro" on it.

Saxton Hale.

Duh.


Anyway, why does it seem like I'm the only person that thinks this looks ****ing great? The trailer reminds me of the beginning of Day of the Dead.


And seriously, what the **** is wrong with them putting the game in daylight? That's a GOOD thing. When I was playing Left 4 Dead, I got to the final campaign and thought "What? Zombies don't have to be in the dark all the time."

Showing a brightly lit city filled with zombies is needed to provide the whole zombie movie feel. I agre that it's not as scary, but it's still just as stressing, expecially since there's a heavy haze, aparently.

The inclusion of melee weapons is another good thing, especially the chainsaw. They need to do more than just guns here. I'm glad they're being brave and actually progressing the gameplay rather than just putting new campaigns and calling it finished like many of you seem to think is such a great idea.

Oh, i didn't really pay attention to what was written on the side of the chain saw <_<

& i guess i agree with you on the last sentence with the development, and yeah zombies live in the daylight, but since playing the first left 4 dead, you'd all know what to expect, if they did daylight first then night time, there would be added suspense.
Ahwell. I'm sure there will be a reaon for everything.

I just think that maybe the characters could have been worked on with a story line :s

Worked on with a storyline? What do you mean by that? The game DOES have a storyline, if that's what you mean.

Left 4 dead doesn't have a storyline, but the new one might have one they said.

Erm... Yeah, Left 4 dead has a storyline. It's simplistic, but still existant.

Yeah, there is no story line.. at all.
Perhaps they could build up with several sequals t finish of a huge successful game.
For example, the first one, purely surviving the attack, the second one, surviving the attack & finding out more about it, for example, why, or when it happened.
That's what i mean by build on a story line.

The first one, no, nothing, zilcho, it's just, get from one end of a map to another. Ruthelessly killing hundreds of zombies, which btw i'm on 20,000 now :D

Nearly half way to the 53,535, or whatever it is :D

Silenced Uzi = Dumb.
