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.

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!

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
