Left 4 Dead is an upcoming multiplayer co-operative survival horror first-person shooter game by Turtle Rock Studios which is, as of January 10, 2008, part of Valve Corporation. The game has been built using Valve's Source engine and will be available on the PC and Xbox 360. Certain Affinity is responsible for the Xbox 360 version of the game. Left 4 Dead puts four human playable or AI controlled survivors of an apocalyptic pandemic against hordes of the Infected. Regular Infected are controlled by the game AI, while human players can control up to four mutated Boss Infected with special abilities. The Survivors' goal of Left 4 Dead is to help each other make it through a level to safety. Infected players must cooperate to stop them.

The expected release date for Left 4 Dead is November 4 2008 everywhere but the United Kingdom, where it is November 7. The game was first revealed in the Christmas 2006 publication of PC Gamer UK with a six-page article describing a playthrough at Valve's headquarters. A teaser was released with The Orange Box. The game was first playable at the Showdown 2007 LAN in San Jose and at QuakeCon 2007.

A Playstation 3 version of Left 4 Dead has been confirmed in development, however it will not be directly made by Valve, but by developer EA. Left 4 Dead is timed exclusive so the exact date of a Playstation 3 release has yet to be confirmed.

Left 4 Dead E3 Showcase
Kotaku! Hands-on Impressions

Another.... FPS survival horror... ....

Not any of those ordinary FPS survival horror shit.
This game should have been the RE: Outbreak wannabe.

And by the way, please kindly check out the E3 2008 Showcase of the game.
That video puts a lot more justice on the game than any other trailers.

The exploding gas station was hell sweet!

Hope not same as FEAR, condemned, coz i muntah when play that kind of game..cant tahan wei....pening...

You should go back to your RPG-realm!
And so do I

aiks...i think there's a game with same title not long ago.. Let 4 Dead..

/me play back LO, BD and Eternal Sonata...

It looks interesting....4 players coop survival horror zombie killing game.
Should be fun...but are they nuts for going head to head with Gears of War 2 release? (Both are shooter.)

hopefully there is lot of blood all over when we shot or slice all those zombies.

PrivateJohn: Hot competition..aint that the same time Fallout 3 comes out as well ?? November right ??

Left 4 Dead Gameplay Montage

I thought the release date for GoW2 is nov 15-16?

Left4dead got 2 weeks to make an impression. Either way they just want the games off the shelves when they still got the chance

the box art: http://kotaku.com/5027391/thumbs-up-for-le...awesome-box-art

they should have used the left hand though thus completing the pun

when is the ps3 version coming out?

Put up the image just for the lazy ones.



Why in the world did they use a green color background.
I thought the game was full of reds and more reds.
The broken hand depicts the game well enough.
Overall still not to my liking. Looks cheap.

-= Virgil =-: Dude the cover art looks like a frog hand LOL

well it wont be mistaken for the hulk game thats for sure...

p/s: if u listen to the game and dont watch the clip...it SOUNDS so much like CS

4-player coop. That should make it interesting at least. As long as it features decent story, decent gameplay, then the coop will be fun with friends.

Where are my kakis.. LORDIEE!! MK!!! HITMAN!!!

looked at some of the videos for this game, and it looks... awful. too chaotic. 'vampire rain' chaotic

yes, i know, theyre zombies, and zombies dont come at you in orderly fashion

the game is giving me the impression that i'll end up killing my teammates (im sure theres a friendly fire setting!) more often than those zombies

That is the fun of it bro

well you can always trust Valve to come with something good in terms of storyline.

chaotic zombies? to me that's cool as i always loved how those "zombies" in 28 Days Later acts compared to RE (first 3 installment)... and yes, welcome back TK!! surely adds more fun to the game...

maybe the left4dead vids that ive seen were showing scenes in the hospital (small corridors, cramped environments), thus it looks very 'unmanageable'

imagine if this game has no friendly fire setting hehehe

and yeah, im also a huge fan of the fast zombies on screen

Ahh the joy of killing your own teammate. Make sure you play the game with people who don't take it too seriously.

Else, you will end up with very angry teammates and a lousy experience

Well, I don't take it too seriously. Am kind anticipating the game Coop is always fun.

Yay! Get it! Then I can kill you..ermm i mean the zombies.

LOL. I'll be waiting for it.

hmm..seen the trailer..dun think the game is that nice..for me la

Left 4 Dead Games Convention Trailer



After watching the trailer, i can somehow feel the intensity and the fun of just pouring out chains of bullets at that big fatty meat ball. Have to look out for floating concretes though

They just bump the gfx up ain't it?

*giggle*
i seriously can't wait for this game.
this holiday season my wallet is gonna have a huge hole in it...
haih..

but it's all good!

Funny the game cover art is completely different from what was speculated.
The green background with the 4 fingers are gone and replaced with just a simple Left4Dead title on it.

Left 4 Dead TV Spot #1


This I think I am going to get the steam version since valve game can run on any cheap laptop and still looks good. Best of all, 360 controller works flawlessly on my laptop

Oh, it's cheaper too

Demo is out!!! The demo comes with coop multiplayer.

The graphic is nothing to shout about but its gameplay is really fun!!! Don't take my word for it, try it with 3 of your buddies at higher difficulty....the suspense

Ahhh! sad im leaving today for holiday

Ahh im coming back in a week.. then maybe can try....

XD

please do rate the demo guys!

Wow, pretty hectic gameplay! Graphics look average but man oh man, I think co-op would be great! Running zombies are a cool idea haha.

Who is actually getting this game? I'm an avid fan of Valve. Prob gonna get it for the 4 player co-op. Any body else?

just finished downloading the demo this morning, so I'll be zombie killing tonight

terrer la tu bem

Avoiding the tahyul ke takut? hahahahaha

Zombie pun tahyul weh. Bila nak world at war?

I think my download completed as well, so count me in too~!

Download la, tau la dah beli WaW

i just tried the demo.. oh my god!!! graphic.. so so.. bodies don't stay.. but ohh my god.. ZOMBIE rush!!! and the lighting effects of shooting the gun in a dark apartment.. that is SOOOOOO cool!!

I LIKE!!!!

my download stuck at 18%
2 days edi...

Tried the demo earlier, pretty fun and now downloading demo for PC version pulak

Marau, tonite we zap some zombies, last nite couldn't join.

what time man? or I just get on and pull you away from the horde and fight the zombie horde!

1030 -11-ish

Ok... we are going to do some John Woo style zombie busting tonight!

hehehe... dont forget me too... if i dont play gow 2 at that time...

I did it on mid-night, got it in morning, should be no problem.

Just finished the demo.. alone though

But.. wow... who ever thought that tying a flash light on your gun would give such a suspenseful effect when you reload.

Getting thrown around by the brute zombie was an experience.
Figuring out how NOT to use the gas tank was also a fun experience as I cooked my fellow survivors.

I like how the player automatically calls out important stuff like there's pills here.... guns here.. ammo here.. would think that's really helpful in coop mode.

Has anyone read the game text on the market place? "this game rocks.. buy it!'

So appropriate!

Here's my tip of the day though...

"Whoever on the front please freakin' DuuuckkK!!"

It's bad enough having zombies stalking you, now that we have 4 person with gun stuck in a small corridor...
