Left 4 Dead 2, and Nerd Rage
Wow, this is amazing. I am trying to wrap my head around what’s going on here. One thing is obvious: Valve has us spoiled. Left 4 Dead 2 First things first, Valve announced Left 4 Dead 2 at the E3. The game will have plenty of new things over the first: A new and improved [...]
Shooter News (TF2, L4D, QL)
I said that I’d post about TF2, L4D and QL, so here goes. They all have share-worthy news. Left 4 Dead Survival Pack Left 4 Dead did get a new update a couple of weeks back, which improved the balance a bit. I liked the Smoker changes, but other than that, it was a bit [...]
Francis Hates Everything
You know I love Left 4 Dead – I actually got to play it quite a lot, too. One thing that’s great about the game is how the characters interact (automatically), letting small conversations form in some spots that are different every playthrough of a map. Now if you’ve heard a few of those conversations, [...]

Does that make sense? I actually painted 5 at once after the prototype, makes for fewer breaks [...]

Long story short for all you guys coming from Google: Left 4 Dead demo out 6th for preorders, 8th 11th now for everybody, get it from Steam. It’s rare that I’m as hyped up for a game as I was for this one. I think the last time this happened was for Age of Conan, [...]
Totally Zombies!!!
Quite some time ago, I bought this game, Zombies!!! – yep, that’s three exclamation marks. To say it with Terry Pratchett, “Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign for a diseased mind!” Considering we’re talking about zombies, that makes sense, too. Particularly if the game has the slogan, “This one’s a no-brainer!” If you wonder [...]
Left 4 Dead Pre-Order Open
I just got mine today. Left 4 Dead is coming in roughly four weeks, I’m sure you heard about it. It’s the upcoming post-apocalyptic zombie shooter by Valve, the makers of the awesome Team Fortress 2 and the Half Life series, with raving previews (an extensive preview is here) – everyobdy who played it loves [...]
