I know! It's like there's some big holiday that's celebrated by mass consumerism right around the corner or something.

We got the game in our office, we don't have enough people to play TF2 or ET anymore, so I figured a 4 player coop would work well. Pretty fun with the demo playing in the office with 4 guys.

Yup, pretty awesome. Or at least it was until we got bought by a US company. Now everything sucks, I'm seriously contemplating jumping ship.

Man, no kidding. Mind you, what would I do when I got home at night?
Played the game for a while last night, pretty good actually. I can see it getting a tad linear though. And by linear, I don't mean the way the game plays as they have obviously made great strides in preventing the same map being played the same way twice but more like kill zombie, reload, run, repeat.
Hope I'm wrong, pretty sure I'm going to buy it anyways. I think playing as one of the boss zombies will be fun. Possibly more fun that playing the humans.
Really good write up on both sides of the game here:

I played the demo for the first time tonight and ... holy %#$^, is this game crazy! I'll definitely be picking it up this week.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to play the multiplayer demo again.

If you want a damn awesome treat, get the codes to play as the boss zombies.
Hucking massive wads of concrete at characters (or other zombies) as a Tank is wild!

Unfortunately Valve released a patch that disabled being able to play as the Infected bosses in the demo. Luckily the entire game is being released on Tuesday, and then you'll be able to play as the infected as much as you want in the VS mode.

I loved the demo. Apparently there was a bug that cause crashes if you have a dual core processor and that was frustrating but I am pretty excited for the release.

Sounds like there is very little content in the game... only two maps for multiplayer. Doesn't sound like a $60 title to me.

Reviews say the AI is impressive and no 2 games are the same. Plenty of replayability. http://arstechnica.com/reviews/games...d-review.ars/1

Left 4 Dead is a monstrously fun co-op title that has you helping your friends survive a zombie invasion while a sadistic AI god called the Director throws death at you from all angles. Welcome to the game that will make PC gaming cool again.
