@YourSoulEmbarks I'm British, I just have a weird accent, lol. : P

[hunterIV1]

whos dat on 7:45 so strange

[MrEarcheese]

@hunterIV1 That's Francis. Every survivor looked way different when they started developing L4D.

[zombiemanic1]

sick review

i getting xbox360 +left 4 dead :D

[DannyBoy800]

i hate the fat demo versions of bill zoeylouis and francis

[blitzkriegdragon013]

it's best on pc

[ps3gamesforlife]

yea u can download maps and shit

[kangal8]

4:45 dats dead island coming out soon

[Moneymark14]

It looks kewl i just might play it

[orc9925]

dont run from the tank blast his face off

[bigboys1199]

this game kiks ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[GorbiJones]

Why the heck did they pull the demo off of Live? I didn't get a chance to try it out. I think they're just losing potential buyers.

[117yoyo123]

made by valve! half life 2, portal, rocks

[cjay974]

just keep shooting at the tank while avoiding it to kill it. its kinda hard but if all 4survivors shoot it it'll die in like 20 secs i think.

[MoNeYMiKe111]

i love this game so much its probably my favorite FPS on the 360

great review you hit all the finest points of the game

[ferelinstincts]

Why thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the review.

[RDMNC]

its going to come out on june for ps3 yay

[ferelinstincts]

No it's not, Valve confirmed it.

[RDMNC]

yeah ok i know you already said that on other video lol

[Killer12345240]

@ferelinstincts cause valve is a peice of shit...

[85turtle]

5 out of 5, multiplayer game of the year, XBOX magazine says ' fuck off George Romero these are the zombies of the future!

[golem3345]

one thing i liked about the game is the pistols are not a piece of shit

[Makoman2008]

valve got the running idea from i am legend where the infected are annoyed by loud noises and flashing lights

[ferelinstincts]

Well actually they got it from 28 Days/Weeks Later because the same concept is used for the infected in those movies too.

[votestuff]

no they got it from css. i think. when like 3 ppl kill 30 bots that only use knife. but yeah i also think they got allot of the ideas from 28 days later

[Makoman2008]

on 7:25 bill is standing on a pile of bodys lol

[dnaslinky369]

ok ppl relax. its a good game but theres better ones out there. this get repetitive

[Nights1re]

Yeah but it get old slower than most games. Every game gets damn repetitive, but the main appeal of this game is the fact its awesome, and changes each time, so the factor of being repetitive is not so blatant, hell me and my friends played it for thirteen hours of straight, then went back later on, and found it fun still.

[tiggyhatty]

ITS GREAT!

[mrhyde2121]

replay value is kinda important but so is story and multi player modes it depends what you want out of a paticular game. fps are good for replay value and you want a good multi player mode, but an rpg you want a long complex story that will take you ages to complete so you feel like you got your moneys worth i mean i replay left 4 dead all the time but im not going threw gta 4 again it took too fucking long but it was worth it to complete it all.

[Tankmaster46]

Man Francis and Louis look a crap load different than in this early model

[ShizzHappens]

nice review

i really want this game now

[GunStreets]

WTf is their fantastic about this lame game

its just a noob shooter

mirros edge

tombraider underworld

Halo odst

those games are fantastic

[ferelinstincts]

Ok don't talk down on a game until you try it.

& the games you mentioned?

Mirror's Edge "Great"

Tombraider Underworld "Exacly the same as all the others"

& Halo 3 ODST isn't even out yet & wont be until Q4 09 so you can't use that in your debate (Despite how great Halo is)

If you've played the game & don't like it then that's fair enough but judging by your comment you clearly havn't. So how about actually playing the game before you make a judgment call on it ok?

[GunStreets]

''Tombraider Underworld "Exacly the same as all the others"''

''If you've played the game & don't like it then that's fair enough but judging by your comment you clearly havn't.''

i would say take up your own advice idiot.

Its clear you haven't played underworld.

if so than ur a moron coz it isn't exactly the the same game as all the others

so why the fuck are you telling me not to judge a game than i haven't played..while you do the same

-exposed

[ferelinstincts]

I can understand the fact that the game isnt as innovative as Mirror's Edge but it ultimately come's down to fun factor.

With Mirror's Edge you beat it once or twice then stop playing but with Left 4 Dead you can beat it more than 10 times & STILL keep playing because you never get the same experience twice it's always differant.

[GunStreets]

and there's the difference.

not everygame is supposed to be played over and over and over and over again.

and thats the thing people like you don't understand...

A game doesn't have to have multiplayer/coop blablabla etc to be a great game

Left 4 dead was meant to be played over and over..but that doesn't mean is better than a game like mirros edge

mirrors is a ACTION/ADVENTURE

and that doesn't make it less than a game focused on multiplayer

so your whole argument doesn't make sense

[GunStreets]

fun doesn't mean shit...fun doesn't make A game Memorizable and doesn't place a game in the list of: Best games ever made

(Make a not of this kids)

A Game Being Fun Isn't a Unique Thing-A Game Being Innovative And Doing/Showing Something That Has Never Been Done Before Is Unique!

[ferelinstincts]

A game can be as innovative & unique as it wants but if its not fun then people wont play it. As for replay value whats the point in even buying a game if your just gonna play it once & not touch it again? That's all developers want & what gamers want is to play play play. If you were just gonna beat it once & not touch it again there'd be no point to begin with. Why do you think developers add dlc's to games including single players? So they can KEEP playing.

[GunStreets]

whats the point of buying without replay value With one example ill blow your theory out the window: you must own one of these games Pokemon red/green/blue/sapphire/ruby/ Tombraider franchise Prince of persia trilogy Halo trilogy Fable Mario bros games Sonic games are you telling me..that you have played one of these games more than 10 times over? (nope) And then also telling me these games Sucked because they didn't have replay value????

[ferelinstincts]

& i know that a game doesn't need multiplayer etc to be great E.G Ninja Gaiden 2,Devil May Cry 4,Bioshock & Mirrors Edge. All of those don't have multiplayer but they're great games. Also your acting as if i just said that Mirrors Edge is the worst game ever made. I have the game it's great do u want me to make a video proving that i have it or something?

[GunStreets]

dude.. Replay value isn't all of that I played Call of duty 2 ONE TIME Do i regret buying it? HELL NO so it doesn't make any sense what you say about fun or replay value Each game hss replay value..there is no such thing as a game without replay value So why even bring that up fun is important replay value speaks for itself But reading your comments..it sounds like you think it only revolves around Fun and thats not true

[GunStreets]

im just mad people refuse to see the beauty in games like underworld/mirrors edge/dead space/assasins creed coz they first of all listen to review sites that fell off a long time ago like ign..and second have forgotten how important Story/Plot/Character/Design/Gr­aphics are

maybe im taking it out on you..for that im sorry

But gamers especially the young pricks need to learn how to appreciate games again that focus on other things besides sniping heads of zombie's

[ferelinstincts]

& dude i agree with you i mean i love Dead Space,Mirrors Edge & Assasins Creed & i do appreciate games etc & the things you said are very important but the most important things are fun factor & replay value. determaining what game is good tho is all down to prefference.

[GunStreets]

yea

my bad for going crazy on you ;)

[ferelinstincts]

Lol no worries dude i can understand where your coming from.

[daninetails867]

india?

[caviano]

assassins creed had potential but failed horribly.

and to gun street... replay value is very important thing to consider when buying a game.. spending 50 bucks ona game to play once.. waste of money.

[GunStreets]

exactly the same as all the others???

Don't give advice..when you're aren't following it yourself

make a note of it

left 4 dead being an awesome game?

aight i can understand that maybe

all im saying is that a game like that isn't innovative..expect for one thing..and thats the directors AI..besides that its just a shoot and survive coop game

how the fuck does this get a 9.5

and mirros edge a 7.4

mirros edge is the most innovative game of 2008

[ferelinstincts]

Dude i know exacly how Underworld plays because i rented it. I enjoyed the demo so i rented & after playing for a while it turned out to be the same as all the others. You dont know what your talking about & about Mirrors Edge. Did you see a bad word against it from my reply? I said it was great i have it. Also who gives a shit about ratings? The fact that your basing your argument on the ratings that the game got tells me that you like to be told what to play.

[GunStreets]

if you exatly know how underworld plays. than:

1.you rushed through the game(and the facts that you rented the game already proves you didn't have high hopes ofthe game)

2.the comment you made about underworld being exactly the same as the others is totally false

3. or you really have no idea what a game is meant to be about..other than SHOOTING and playing the game over and over and over again

[Mrharryfunnyman]

Could I Ask You a Question(s)

1. Is the Gamer worth its buy?

2. What type of game is it?

3. What should I Get it on

4. Whats bad about the Game

Thank you

[ferelinstincts]

1. YES!

2. FPS Survival

3. Depends. The PC version allows you to mod maps etc but the 360 version is better for voice communication & in this games it's needed.

4. The only weakness i can think of is the graphics but that's not a big deal at all.

Hope this helped :D

[Mrharryfunnyman]

Thanks :)

Just couple more Questions/Things.

Well my Friends Said theres like 4 Levels.

And that would be Like Really Short.

Oh and Whats FPS?

[ferelinstincts]

It is a fairly short game but if you play Co-op on Expert it will take you several hours to finish 1 Campaign (There's 4 Campaign's)

FPS stand's for First Person Shooter.

[gamehacker07]

I don't have the game yet so I can't tell you about the 4 level question but I can tell you that FPS means first person shooter.

[Gears0798]

I wonder how many times this guy has said "THIS GAME IS REALLY FUN!"

[humblenerd147]

i cant find it at the market place either

[bobanators]

its because its been took off now. so u will need to buy or rent it...

[BubblefluProductions]

how do you download the Demo?

[ferelinstincts]

Xbox Live Marketplace.

[BubblefluProductions]

ive trried is there like a code or something

[ferelinstincts]

Then erm.... Try renting it from Blockbuster or something lol.

[thatguy5991]

theres a glitch when ur in the elevator on no mercy on the hospital level if u throw a explosive at someone they fall through the elevator

[B8KU]

does anyone know what to do after u installed the left 4 dead pc demo onto your computer using bit coment. where do u play it.plz respond.need help.

[caseymachete]

nice review

[B8KU]

does anyone know how to download left 4 dead demo for xbox 360 now,beacuse they changed the dashboared.i want this so badly,can someone please help.:)

[Kavasiki]

there was only a little period of time that you were able to download it for the markedplace. now you need to buy it...

[pathawkins12]

can you play mutiplayer without actually going on xbox live??? like with 2 people on the same xbox?

[Kavasiki]

yes, 2+ friends can play local (on the same Xbox 360) or System Link

[qipez111]

damn xbox, u win again. first GOW2 now this, i wonder why they just couldn't make them for ps3 as well.

[TyphorT38]

why not just make one ultimate console and the consentrating on making kick-Ass games :) wouldn´t that be nice?

[robross1992]

i agree with everything u said, apart from there arnt hundreds of zombies theres thousands !!!

[lolznewbrofl]

they are not zombies damit, their infected humans

[QueenJavas]

shut the fuck up

[rockinarmy]

lol

[zeromuza]

This game kicks ass only in expert mode. Otherwise the game is too easy...

Nice review man. Keep up the good work.

[dodgykid88]

i always grab the fast shooting shotgun, and keep my flashlight on. luckily i almost always avoid startling the witch, i just sneak up behind her, go up behind her and blow 4 or 5 rounds into her back. always gets it done

same witht he tank, except i run close, and let him follow me while i unload say 15 rounds into the beast

but im a n00b player atm so im playing on easy right now

[killboydxb]

is it multi on the ame x box?or only online ONLY? plase reply!!!

[ferelinstincts]

It's availbe on Xbox 360 & PC.

[Jacob0004]

just like all the other good games

[LordSharpShot]

you can play with bots. but its better online

[chargerdjm]

that was an excellant review! now im guna get the game. thanx man

[LILME805]

i played the demo every day its really fucking awsome

[dafedil]

with a witch if you startle one run backwards dont run so you cant see her anymore cause thats bad lol but like dont run forward runbackwards so you can see her and SHOOT THE LIVING HELL OUT OF HER MAN adn with a tank do the same thing lol

[bongmygong1991]

he sounds english/american

[thatguy5991]

i was playing left 4 dead and i was the last survivor and a smoker grabbed me and while he was grabbing me a boomer vomited on me and i was killed by the horde while still in the air

[confernal]

Yeah, like when a hunter is beating your face in... with the entire horde... while on fire... and covered with boomer shit... with a tank comming... along with a witch... and the safe room is 3 feet away... it really sucked.

[CournalMustard29]

ino what to do wiv a tank SHOOT THE @#$% OUTA IT!!!!!!

[AKON33344]

was on the last level on the No Mercy campaign went to the plane (last survivor) went to jump thena hunter got me...unpredictible

[thatguy5991]

that must have sucked to be u dude

[AKON33344]

hell yeh man had every lmao'ing rofl'ing lol'ing

[TTT808killa]

for the tanks i think u jus try shoot em in the back as much as possible, and if u got a frend, they can maybe distract them by shootin em in da head and u shoot the back, idk, not to sure but its working pretty well so far

[Maddhater1]

Left 4 Dead sucked. Every mission was point A to point B, no story AT ALL, only 3 good weapons, tons of glitches, no boss battles, no strategy, every mission is nearly exactly identical to the last, and the game takes 2 hours to beat.

[oblivion500]

did you take the time to enjoy it you prick

play it on expert be a infected???

[Maddhater1]

Duh, after i beat it i still wanted to be entertained! I tried to like it as much as i could!

[AKON33344]

no story at all? wow in a zombie infested plant you rly need a story

[thatguy5991]

yes all that may be true but if u play it again it wont be exactly the same as the first time u played it so it wouldnt be predictable so u dont kno when the zombies r goin to attack u

[mjrog77]

haha nice review

btw- your accent's awesome

[dajoff]

lmfao i am setting off an alarm

[jamesito20]

its more like thousands of zombies

[jamster48]

i love this game! oh and 1 more thing you forgot that u can play as boss zombies.

[freedomeagle50]

430-440 lmao!!!

[harrypsycho]

Whats your accent mate, its a total mind fuck too me kinda sounds northen and american wtf?

[JamesTorquay]

i agree =P nice review tho mate!

[smaptey1]

When the zombies reach through the bars they don't hurt you at all.

[superdude166]

how to take down a tank. shoot it....and then shoot it some more.....and if that dont work...shoot it some more!

[kenplays]

Hey reply my comment dudu

[ferelinstincts]

I did haha.

[littleweapon12]

just added it to my christmas list

[acmhc8]

FYI, the best way to take down a tank or witch on the higher difficulties is to throw a Molotov. With the witch you pretty much have to stand and fight because she's faster than you anyways, but you can run from the tank if your health is green and he'll just burn to death. This tactic is absolutely necessary on expert.

[UndeadGoober]

is there a certain order that i have to play the campaign levels in to get the story because i just got this game and i didnt have to play the level when u start out on the roof top so if someone could give me the proper order of the levels in campaign so i could psooible get the story...:)

[ferelinstincts]

No there is no order to the game there are 4 campaign's to play through & each campaign has 5 chapters.

[dcboys777]

baja edge of control has that feture

[crazedchrizz]

Killzone 2 isnt out yet

[ferelinstincts]

What the hell doe's Killzone 2 have to do with Left 4 Dead?

[kenplays]

Hey man what up,dude I really wan't to try this game im a first person shooter fan and im sure I got what it takes to survive the zombie madness in any diffuculty so i really 1 to try this game but you gotto tell me where to download this demo and 1 mroe question in this game does the zombie attack the same way???

[ferelinstincts]

If your a PC gamer then the demo is no longer available but if your a console gamer then you can download it of Xbox Live marketplace. Also, due to the AI director the game changes everytime you play such as enemies,weapon locations, item locations etc so you'll be getting a differant experiance everytime you play.

[toasterinthetub]

I didn't like Left 4 Dead all that much. I haven't played it online yet.

[ferelinstincts]

Understandable. But the online mode is where the real enjoyment factor of this game is because it's a co-op based game. Single player is good but the way to get the most out of the game is to play online or split screen.

[toasterinthetub]

Yeah I'm sure I'll love it when I get online. It's not that bad offline.

[knuckles1994]

ya everyone has to shoot it at the same time for it to die i watched the interview :)

[randomdude0000]

If you see a Tank you shoot the fuck out of it.. not run

[daveman393]

is there split screen???

[jakeman52]

4 player :)

[ferelinstincts]

Yes.

[whyt546]

they changed the black guy, now hes wearin a white T-shirt and a red tie and he has no hair, francis the biker guy hes bald 2 and has no beard, zoey looks less like a hippy, bill looks exactly the same

[jlinky1234]

FUCKING EPIC

[Hitari0]

Lol.  It's just I've never heard anyone call people playing together through the internet anything but multiplayer.

[Draco1239]

The only thing I don't like about this game is that the cover and makers said there would be 10 different weapons, when there is a total of 6 counting pistal and 8 counting pipe bomb and molotalv cocktails

[MrKohlenstoff]

That's true.. :/ maybe they counted the smoker's and boomer's attack as weapon too. :D

[Hitari0]

Did he just call multiplayer "online-mode"?

[justinmepham]

wow your serious about gaming if you care about it that much

[t2bstryker]

the game i think will be a 9.5 your review a 9.5

[sedd1234]

I cant seem to get into this :( maybe ill give it a rent and it will give me more than the demo.

[GamingQueen88]

This game is completely awesome. I have no issues with the controls at all, I've been a console gamer my whole life, I can use a controller on any type of game. I've never played a game on the PC. I'm shocked that Xplay (the show that gives 5 out of 5 mostly to every MGS and GTA game) actually gave this a 5 out of 5.

[DIVON39]

IT'S AN AWESOME GAME OBVIOUSLY......LOVE IT.....AND LOVE Valve...they make really the best games

[KingofTownz]

Demo is gone, buy the real game, it came out 2 days ago =]

[biillyBOBjingleBALLS]

best game ever! i cant stop playing it. ive been playing like 7 hours a day and the only reason i stop is cause my bro played half so he has to play 2. but ya awesome awesome awesome game!

[gutartss]

where do you downlad the demo

[schizophrenic2494]

find it in games under marketplace on the dashboard on the 360.

[sonicedhoedown1]

I would have to say between 360 and pc you should get this pc. one because valve made it so its pretty much more like a c. 2. the controls wouldnt work good with a controller. using the mouse will help you kill zombies on all sides plus the online will help.

[codeman2557]

good video nice review u shoulda described the witch worse than the hunter cuz witches never stay away from u oncer u piss them off

[svartamaneten]

Great review! But how fun is the game is you don't play it online:P Guess I'll buy it soon:D

[fungas4201]

u gotta love killin zombies:)

[ChopsticksKilla]

left 4 dead is just awesome

[metalrulezU]

Like the take a break feature! Fantastic idea!

[desert116]

If you light Tank on fire with Molotov and run, it will burn to death.

[RAMIREZ1838]

I know how to take the tank down, Shoot IT!!!!!

[ChopsticksKilla]

OH REALLY?!?

[twitch136]

You obviosly dont have the full game because you only described one of the sets of missions.

[nickfizzle]

You obviously didn't notice that this was posted on November 12'th.

[twitch136]

You obviously havn't noticed there are tonnes of early reviews for games all the time? People get games early alot dude. I'm saying if this guy has a review up it should be left 4 dead demo review, cuz thats obviously all he played before doing this review.

[TylerVLBK]

This game is fucking awesome anyone on xbox live add me my gamertag is Tyler V 44

[jawb4acowboy]

the graffics are pretty good. idk what u think

[fungas4201]

cant wait 2 train for the future zombie apocalyps:)

[Swoff92]

I fucking love setting off the car alarm. Its so mych fun.

[DJhedgehammer]

especially on expert dude!!

[alldaysmurkman]

swiftyfive that pretty rude and childish talking about someones voice pathectic,oh and good review instincts

[KRAZY7777]

they dont look like toys lol?

[ThEbIgCh33Se21]

This game is soo frickin good. The demo is sick. i didnt know much about this game until i downloaded the demo. i am definately gettin this game. WORD OF WARNING SET THE WITCHES ON FIRE OR LEAVE THOSE FUCKERS ALONE ALONE.

[swiftyfive55]

you talk like a gay faggot,...sorry just sayin nothing but the truth, review is good though

[tommyboi9]

whats up with his voice

[thatguy5991]

wouldnt a gay faggot be a straight guy because of double negatives?

[samthomps168]

hmmmmm

[bongmygong1991]

ferelinstincts, are you english but located in america, or the other way round, because your voice is like, Amglish (just made it... not very good) good review tho

[dontreadmyusername0]

I played the demo just now and it's fucking outstanding im getting this game for sure.

[DtardFilms]

Yeah man the Tank is crazy hard to beat, even on the easy difficulty. Great Review, Can't wait for the game to come out.

[Maistia]

ahuh whateva u say

[runerat94]

great review man..keep up the good work!

[bign3ck]

great review

[MrAppleby56]

[JamesTorquay]
