What gamers have got for at least the next weeks is one of the finest zombie games ever made, and one of the finest co-op games ever made. The potential for everything to go so, so wrong without warning, or conversely to pull off the most spectacular escapes against all odds, means this is an online shooter you can tell your finest anecdotes about without boring everyone else to tears. Everyone loves a zombie movie, after all. Hooray, then, for Left 8 Dead.

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
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
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
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.
might buy it :)

I am not knocking the score, it's excellent but even I don't understand some sites rankings / ratings system. Why use a number system if it doesn't make sense? Personally I would prefer if reviewers did away with a scoring system and just relied on journalism. Can you imagine how much places like this would level off / calm down if they did?
Hit me up with a friends request if anyone wants to co op.
Another awesome xbox360 EXCLUSIVE game AAA. Best ever CO-OP game ever made.
No, sorry... I have this game. Had it for 2 days now and it's not a 9... it's a 6 at best on a scale of 1 to 10. I gave it a 5 out of 9. The story mode, if you can call it that, is only 2 hours and 20 min long. There are 4 scenarios and each can be beat in 20 to 25 min. This game has no lasting appeal at all in that context. The online adds "some" value to it but once another big game comes out this one is off the radar.
I am so sick of these bias reviews. Just because it has zombies in it it gets a pass.

That's an honest review.
