  • Rerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrr l

  • lol beta bommer where they cause explosion in stead of throw up at 1:58

  • Chet is a cool guy

  • aw look at little chet before he grew his beard out

  • Let me get this straight. Left 4 Dead was created by Turtle Rock studios, then half way through development they joined Valve and continued development on the game with Valve. Am I right? If not please correct me.

  • @rspivotmaster

    Correct. We may have had this beta version as the final release if Valve didn't take over.

  • @ShadowZezima not necessarily... valve was working with turtle rock from the beginning, they just completely bought them out midway through. I'm pretty sure it was the same people working on it. store[dot]steampowered[dot]com­/news/523/ was the announcement that they started working on it - back in 2006,

  • @mrmittens12

    Idk man I still feel that Turtle Rock would've kept the concept if they went solo on the project.

    Either way, we won't be seeing the old builds any time soon :l.

  • I notice that the Boomer doesn't throw up on you at this point. This must have been when the Screamer was in.

  • wow, this footage it old... really old... look at louis, hes a stereotypical black guy

  • this looks better than the wat it is now

  • Man, I'm going to need to gain enough money to build a new PC...

  • lols how come this looks alot different then today??cus it has more graphics but less other things liek the light and the arrows from where u r being attacked from is this the beta thing is like?

  • because this video show very early game demos

  • @l4d3k this is the beta,many people say the beta looks better than the original.

  • You sir, Fail

  • I just had a great idea. Valve should have included the older character models as skins for the first game.

  • I like louis in the new one better

  • L4D and L4D2 are 2 of the most original and innovative games of this past decade.. you mad nigguh

  • I trolled your mom

  • Good job, first you've proven yourself to be the average idiot by acting like a retarded mirror. Basically anything I say to you, you try to use it against me, but you dont even know what trolling is, so you've just made yourself look like even more of an idiot. And then you topped it all off with the immature "your mom" joke. Good job, you're a faggot.

    Oh also, tell me how l4d is the most original and innovative game. seriously its not original or innovative at all. try playing other games.

  • baited 2 ez

  • The african was in the bin this entire time, good job. You have been africanized a second time. PS i love how my comments keep getting voted down

  • @Littleluckylink

    The AI director is pretty groundbreaking shit. This is not really subjective either, no one's done anything like it.

    Plus the heavy emphasis on coop is pretty different, not new, but not common either.

  • @ffhk1

    What about Fahrenheit?

  • The finished product of Left 4 Dead was fantastic. I'm glad they made the changes they did.

  • especially louis, he looked like a gangster in the concept art.

  • beta characters for the lose

  • I remember when they first announced they were changing the models everyone started bitching about it now everyone says the old ones are rubbish, people are so indicisive.

  • wow this game looked bad thank god they made changes

  • wow never expected louis to look like that...wow

  • haha

    yea

    you expect some asian

  • lol yea

  • The best online co-op game ever created.

    I won't hear different.

  • you suck.

  • i was jk i was only seeing if some1 would say something i <3 L4D

  • :p lawlz.

  • not untill left 4 dead 2 is released :D

  • different >:|

  • I remember seeing this for the first time and back early in 08' and i was amazed by this game.

  • lol if the game would be released like this i would NEVER get used to it.

  • I wish G4 would put the old shows back on for 1 week and compare the ratings from that week of those shows to the shows they nomaly play, I'm sure more people would watch these shows then what they are showing now.

  • What channel is G4 on?

  • if you have verizon its 191 and time warner look in the 120s

  • Thank you!

  • if u have direct tv 310

  • so in this video it said that the boomer will hurt you if your too close to him when he explodes

  • that beta!

  • It's an old version of the game. The beta that wasn't released to public.

  • Ummm... those aren`t skins, that was from the beta of the game, which we didnt get to play

  • i dont like this old version i like the old version better with zoey louis bill and francis in it not that random guy

  • they all are Louis zoey bill and francis they are just different skins

  • downloading

  • lol that's been around since l4d came out it's a common glitch and I'm sorry but you didn't discover it.

  • It's not even a glitch. Valve made it that way.

  • or, for uninterrupted reloading, hit reload and then start melee'ing. and don't let the shotgun get to 0, because there's a secondary animation if the clip size hits 0. Way to go for taking 9 months to figure out what everyone else figured out in their first playthrough.

  • um thats part of the game u can reload while u melee noob

  • Comment removed

  • the best game shoter!!!

  • That had absolutely nothing to do with what I said..

  • That is so much different than what I have!

  • is that the demo???

  • Looks like the boomer did damage there

  • I hope the person doing the gameplay doesn't work for valve... Because they really suck at this game.

  • @poornation well your an idiot cause they said that he's from valve

  • @charjackable That comment was 2 years ago, also you shouldn't insult people when you can't use the word "you're".

  • @poornation um that does not matter cause in real life I use that for the spelling of you're I just do it like your because I'm lazy when I get on the internet

  • @poornation and I meant I use the spelling you're in real life but I'm lazy when I get on the internet so then I spell it as your

  • melagshag slash pag in my ass

    copy and paste if u don't ur gay

  • I played this, the game is great

  • 0:30-0:32

    wtf they dont look like that at all.francis is CLOSE bill is "ok" but lewis and zoey look horribly they dont look like that in the game

  • thats preview charackter

  • those were the origanal character desiens

  • my first time playing i played with a nine year old online and with my twov friends and the kid was like "im an expert listen to me" then we were on death toll first lvl and he has us stop really close to the safe house and he wwas saying that a tank would come if we went any further and we sat there for ten minutes till i just ran to the safe room.... at the time the game ws nw and i didnt know about the randomness of the zombie spawning

  • francis has hair and louis is macho

  • Why is this L4D so different?

  • well you gotta look at this video came out like 10 months before the game did so they had alot of fixing up to do

  • i know aye

  • Wow!! This is the FIRST video I ever saw on L4D. I was at home watching X-Play and I remember watching this episode and Chet talking about L4D. Oh my god I was blown away!! And kept up with the game ever since I watched it that day!! I was amazed that a game like L4D was finally coming out!! =D And i still love it today

  • I cant wait until l4d2's new director can change the map

  • 1:36

    Notice how the Boomer explodes like a Propane Tank... The Screamer was still in this Hands-On, and that would mean that the Boomer didn't have it's Horde-Attracting ability.

    Chet says in this video that the Boomer vomits on you, but he doesn't at all. All he does is scratch you in this Hands-On -_-

  • what charpter is that one?

  • I'm pretty sure that was Blood Harvest.

  • Pc will always look better than any console (if you are willing to buy a 600 dollar graphic card or get a 700 dollar PC. But I prefer my 360

  • Wrong, a graphics card costs only $100-$200. A fine gaming computer only costs $500 bucks.

  • look it up graphic cards of to $600 and I have a good $500 gaming computer and its still not good enough for a lot of new games

  • gosugniguy much better to just buy a xbox 360 for 200 bucks lol

  • Yeah, that's an arcade one. People still buy the arcades?

  • "Only"

  • Exactly. Your point is....?

  • $500 is not that cheap you know...

  • Aren't the PS3 and 360 the same thing????

  • A console includes everything, not just a graphic card

  • Doesn't a $500 PC do that too? And it does ITunes, internet capabilities and better than console graphics.

  • But you said a good graphic card coast $500

    and now your saying a whole computer is worth $500!

  • I didn't say a good graphics card is $500, you must have read the others, because I haven't say anything about a $500 graphics card. I said you can have a better than console computer for $500, that is final, don't take this further.

  • I can, and if I do that I will win this little debate but you sould be happy I don't.

  • Then I won if winning is the point.

  • You said before you were done with this debate before

    *Facepalm*

  • thank god you think so i hate everyone arrguen bout which is better the only thing different is the exclusives and dats it.

  • why they

    look so different

  • 2:15 repitition win

  • im glad they changed the way frances and louis looked.. cause louis looked like a hobo and frances looked like a dirty drunk

  • if u have 360 they look mch more better if u have pc they look ugly they are playing pc

  • I kind of agree, the characters look much uglier but the graphics are much better

  • pc graphics > 360 graphics

  • well i just found this out go to the pause and go to the option video and its says tv screen and computer moniter i chose computer moniter and it looks like hd

  • depending on the computer

  • yep

  • @AzureFayt Depending on your computer

  • Thats the way 2 do it

  • i don't remember these charaacters in the left 4 dead

  • this a beta version its not very cool

    weapons are different chars too...

    maps too

    maybe u can download the beta version for the full game dunno...

  • when valve was making the game they decided to change the the look and this was their first look before they changed the survivers to look like they do now

  • yea

  • No turtlerock studios were making the game and they designed the characters.

    Valve bought turtlerock and wanted another more "professional" design for the characters.

    So that's why they got re-designed

  • This game is soo fun, but only if you have friends to play it with you, if you don't, it will get old, fast. I have played this game at least an hour or 2 almost every day since it came out, mainly because of the great people I met on it. Oh and Valve already stated their views on the ps3 and said it was a waste of time. But not to worry, EA might come out with some crappy port like they did with the Orange Box to make some extra cash off of this game.

  • It does get old, there are only a finite combination of where and how the zombies attack

  • " the 360 is way better than a ps3 " a geek squad guy lolz

  • Dead Rising 2 will be for both Xbox 360 and Playstation 3

  • Yes and for pc FAP FAP FAP

  • this version ñooks bad...

    :P

  • is this coming out for ps3 ever! cause i like da ps3 and buy a ps3

  • @AMERIO123456 This series will never be on PS3, but Portal 2 will and prob Half Life 2 Ep 3

  • @BOYERxBREAKD0WN half life episode 3?What do you mean.

  • @insanedvo Half Life 2 has been broke down into episodes to get the game out to the players fast instead of making us wait like 10 years for one game, it's Half Life 2, then Epi. 1, 2, and then 3 will come eventually.

  • I played the whole game and i dont remeber those people except for bill every on else they look diff in this vid

  • That's because they're showing an older version of Left 4 Dead in this video.

  • Cool video=) In my contry we too made the cool video=) Chek my channel=)

    This is not spam=) Realy!

  • he said its 4 player coop is it true

  • yes its true, and the game is worth every cent, especially the versus mode makes a lot of fun.

  • yeah

  • Over x box live yes but on the same screen its only 2 player

  • I hate how people are passing judgment on L4D 2 and the current L4D. For L4D 1 Valve really wanted to make the game fun easy and have lots of high moments. For testing they took people who wouldn't buy this type of game and had them test it. They really listened to their input and converted it into a hardcore feel so that it appealed to all crowds.

  • i have l4d for the computer but it won't download anyone have any suggestions on how to make it work

  • buy an xbox 360 :)

  • Did anybody notice that when he shoots the boomer it dosent count as vomit? it blows up but dosent blow vomit.

  • yea that was the original left 4 dead idea but then they made it to vomit

  • Great game, best multiplayer co-op I've ever played...

  • Do you guys remember the old days when you had no choice but to buy the sequels? those of you who are complaining just get over it, this is how gaming used to be. its not that big of a deal, looking forward to sequel =)

  • i 100% agree

  • I thought in the old days they relased a freaking expansion pack!

  • lol

  • i agree, but those were also the times when you got a lot more bang for your buck...

    i remember neatly designed packages, actually including a handbook! thats right...a HANDBOOK! PRINTED! not some pdf files on a DVD in a bulk case. some games even had maps and even design sketches (not jpeg or online). at least valve included the designer commented gameplay mode, that shows that they care about their gamers...aww, i´m getting old and disgruntled ;)

  • yea thats the gameplay before the game came out and before they changed the character cloths and the bomer(casue if you noticed when he blows up no vomit)

  • well we can see that blood harvest finale didnt change a whole bunch from the beta.

  • he said grenades theres no grenades

  • Pipe bombs smart one -.-

  • @Spatren54 Pipebombs

  • "weapons you will find out in the real world" Yes, I will find guns and ammo everywhere and find pipebombs with Fire Alarms attached to it and molatovs everywhere.

  • i know seriously. ha ha. maybe MAYBE molotoves but im sure everyone knows how to succesfully wire a smoke alarm to a pipe bomb that they made and know how to succesfully use it while having enough spare time in the zombie apocolypse to do all that. lol i love ranting :)

  • @jkmjelite Yeah if people have guns and they die there guns will be laying around for us to use.

  • i think the game this guy is showing is the prototype of the left 4 dead game we know of

  • Wow, Louis and Francis are a lot different, and Zoey looks pretty...Asian...

  • how do i get this demo?!

  • you got it when you prebought l4d

  • Notice how the Boomer doesn't cover you in slime when it explodes near you

  • They originally had the Screamer, a dude in a straight jacket that, if it saw you, would run off and start screaming, attracting the Horde. But Valve considered it too difficult to find him in the crowd of cannon fodder zombies, and gave his attracting ability to the Boomer's explosion.

  • that is so old

  • mwuhahahaahah

  • its so cool to see how the game started, Luis was totally pittying the foo and zoey looked weird as hell, and the graphics sucked. There was no shading and the geometry was like ps2.

  • me and a friend of mine beat all 4 story modes in just like 5 hours (on medium).and it gets a little broing after awhile

  • are you guys idots this is not even the game jackasses

  • hahaha you idiot

  • yea it is its just the old version. idiot.

  • Its the Beta version...

  • it is but it looks like the old version, PS2 or X box version

  • what? its only on PC and xbox 360; and this is the beta version

  • Are you retarded?Have you smoked drugs lately?Don't do that...

  • i have it and itsss soooo funn

  • chet doesn't look like he wants to be ther
