Here’s a PC game that we’ve been looking forward to for ages. Left 4 Dead is a multi player co-op first person shooter that sets you and three friends in a fight for survival against the zombie hordes!

The Setting

There are four (hence the 4 in the name - get it?) human survivors in a nasty zombie infested town that have to band together and fight for survival with precious little ammo and a lot of terrifying moments. There are several zombie types from basic cannon fodder to terrifyingly agile hunters and the players must work together to survive.

Fun Factor

It’s made by Valve. It’s going to be great.

The idea of making a game out of those fun zombie attack movies from the 80’s is brilliant and being able to play with your mates at your side is even better. If you don’t happen to have 3 friends, then the computer AI will pretend to be a friend and play along with you.

Graphics are looking good and up to Valve’s usual standard and the world allows players to use almost anything as a weapon. This is likely to create some moments of desperate hilarity as you try to beat the monster to death with some mundane item from your inventory instead of your “Turbo Nutter Bastard Shooter ™”.

Verdict

Buy it as soon as you can!
