GameSpy writes: "Over the years, I've constantly been attracted to team-based shooters. There was Capture the Flag for Quake II and III and Team Fortress Classic, among others. I've always had a soft spot for those with a less sport-focused approach in favor of something a little more cinematic, like Assault for Unreal Tournament and UT 2004, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, or even SWAT 4.
So I'm looking forward to Left 4 Dead, which takes four survivors of a zombie apocalypse and has them attempt to navigate their way through the videogame equivalent of a horror movie, either against computer AI or with humans assuming the roles of a few zombies with special abilities. But these types of games have always had trouble finding a wide audience, and after some playtime at this year's E3 in Los Angeles, we're starting to wonder if the world is ready for a game this smart."
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao

its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
He wants to launch all his projects initially through close beta.
TheGamer Writes "No game will ever surpass Left 4 Dead in the co-op horde shooter genre, so maybe it's time to move on."
It’s the simplistic design coupled with mod support that makes it unbeatable. I feel like it can only be succeeded by a remake or the same gameplay design with updated graphics, animations, weapons and new setting. Thing is, Valve doesn’t create or release games unless they feel it pushes the medium forward. They’re not interested in reselling the same content refreshed or not.
