On a related note i actually went to GDC recently and Valve was by far the most accommodating booth to their fans. Really down to earth people, if not a little jaded by the conference but that's understandable. They let pretty much everyone at the conference come to their company party and get absolutely shit faced on…
The L4D thing didn't bother me because none of the consoles got any extra DLC. The thing with Prince of Persia did piss me off though. (Xbox and PS3 got the DLC while the PC didn't. I happen to only own a PC)
To be honest, I was kind of surprised when they announced L4D2. When I bought L4D it didn't feel like a whole game. One pistol? Come on give me an old school revolver at least! I figured they will release more content like they did for TF2. A few more weapons, maybe a couple of maps. But when none of that arrived and then…
I still play L4D, versus mode is really so unique, I haven't got bored of it yet. No multiplayer game does anything like it really as far as I know. They fixed most of the bugs over time (only remaining problems are lobby/server shenanigans, as MoP and others said). I was surprised about L4D2 coming so quickly, but I don't…
Didn't see too much of an improvement when they first showed it, but after watching some videos this past week or so, I'm hooked. Picking it up with the 4-pack deal, only $34 that way. Achievements have been posted, showing some of the new content. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/left-4-dead-2/achievements/ New…
bounchfx: Well, from what I saw, L4D2 is re-using a ton of assets from L4D1 (same as GoW2 did after GoW, if anything it's smart development and production costs), but MW2 seems to be either making completely new assets (characters, weapons etc) or at least severely overhauling the previous ones. I'd say that makes MW2 more…
I just kinda wish they'd put more effort into fixing the known and persistent bugs in L4D alongside developing L4D2. There are numerous 100% reproducible lobby, friends list and server bugs which really kill the ability to get a game going easily. A bit ridiculous that they're still in given that Valve patch the game…
