(Part 1 of 2)
Just a recording of the developer commentary from Left 4 Dead. It's an amazing game, and Valve is probably one of the best game development companies to date. They at least seem to genuinely care about their fanbase, and they develop great games. Part of what makes their games so awesome is that they AREN'T just random blastfests. At heart, yes, they are still videogames, but Valve doesn't begin crafting a game with that in mind. Valve begins development on a game with an experience in mind, and with the player in mind. These commentaries are really informative and entertaining. They're great if you're a fan of Left 4 Dead, but I also think they're really interesting if you have even the slightest liking for video/computer games, and I think they're a must-watch if you're even CONSIDERING going into the game development field.
