Left4Dead Demo Up on 360

[FlippyD]

If you don't know what Left4Dead is (God help your soul), it's a FPS action team based zombie horror game by Valve. It uses similar team-based mechanics as TF2 (i.e. if you wander away from the group and do stupid things by yourself you-will-die.) However, the game also features an A.I. director that changes the difficulty and nature of the game depending on if your team is doing well or not so well. Also, should you die you'll come back as a zombie mid-boss and can wreak havok on your friends.

The demo is up on 360, but it's a heavy 1.21 gigs in size. If you've got the HD space I'm up for co-op if I happen to be around, handle: Ixis Rex

A game like that I'd rather play on the computer, so I'll probably just get it through steam when it comes out. Besides, my XBL account isn't activated, and I really don't want to spend the money on it right now. Maybe after Christmas.

This game looks cool. I DL it in a bit. Valve never fails to impress, so it should be good.

i played this in my friend's room last week (pc version) mostly because it was just there and i was waiting for him to finish his homework. i dont really FOLLOW GAMES and had no idea what this was when i started playing.

that said i instantly started enjoying it a lot. the most amazing thing about this game for me was the serious constant tension just everywhere. you are NEVER safe and you NEVER know when or where they will come for you. had a hard time getting online because the university connection blows, but i was really having fun with computers, so i can imagine how awesome the game would be with other human players.

first time through i got killed by a witch and i don't even KNOW what happened. i was in the subways and was running ahead of my team exploring, and i heard some creepy sound and turned to face a zombie. it LOOKED AT ME and ther was a caption that said i statled the witch and i SCARED THE FUCK OUT OF ME and next thing I know i was dead.

so yeah this game is really awesome. i want it now.

this game is the fucking shit. i got the demo on PC. the people at valve ... i would do anything for them. if there ever were a company that I would freely give all my earthly holes to, it would be valve. but this game is giving me even more hunger pangs for HL Ep3, because I'm suddenly realizing how long it's been since Ep2 ;~;

Is it just me or are there a fuckload of amazing games coming out lately?

There was a huge torrent of good games in '07, and now we've got another surge of good games in '08. Just like '97 and '98.

This is one of the most intense games I've played in a long time. I got Boomer bile on me and 50 zombies just jump on me. I just switched to my pistol and managed to blow all away with little help from the shitty teammates I had. The game online will be better when I it comes out and you can play with people you know, and peeps who have mics.

I'm addicted to this game.  I've played the demo about 50 times already, and it never gets old.  I keep getting an asshole who shoots the car all the time (NOT GOOD ON EXPERT), though.

I finally downloaded the demo off Steam.

Omfg. Valve is fucking amazing. End of story.

And yes, I'm glad I did this for PC, I can't imagine playing this game on a console with the 2 joystick thing. So many zombies.. Has anyone seen the Witch yet? Creepy as fuck..

The Witch is trippy as nads... I wish I would have put money on this instead of buying Gears, but whatever, I wanted Gears. My favorite aspect of the game is how easy it is to kill the zombies but that there is hundreds of them. That to me seems more like the apocalypse than anything.
