L4D was the MOGOTY Most Overated Game of the Year

I bought it and it fell off my bud list faster than any game I could recall.
Game was fun, but got boring fast

most def will not buy L4D2, way to many other AAA games out now

dachiefsman5721d ago

well you might want to try playing with somebody else....that is were the fun is to be had.

thematrix12985721d ago

I don't think he is homosexual.

divideby05721d ago

the only way to play L4D is online...thats exactly what I did

monkey6025721d ago

I absolutely loved L4D but I have a few friends who got tired of it within hours like yourself

Drealmcc0y5721d ago

Well L4D is the greatest co op game ever made and one of the best games ive ever played and ive put 100s of hours into it, and i personally cant wait for L4D2

trancefreak5721d ago

i just got the 360 version and I have a blast playing split screen with my kids. I will def picking this title up.

skeletonss5720d ago

a ps3 fanboy didnt like a xbox game...

PS3 slim5720d ago

So you won't be playing the demo? lol

Calm down dude you sound angry which hurts your credibility when it comes to your honesty.

OpenGL5720d ago (Edited 5720d ago )

I got the original L4D on Steam at launch but only played it for a few weeks. The first week or so was a blast doing 4 v 4 versus with friends, but we all got tired of the game pretty quickly. I love Valve, but I will not be purchasing L4D2. I really wish they would just hurry up with Episode 3.

The fact that you couldn't download custom maps in game (and still can't) seemed like a step backwards compared to other source games like CS:S, Day of Defeat, Garry's Mod, etc.

y0haN5720d ago

Not to mention it got less content than CoD: WaW on the PC!

kwicksandz5720d ago

Actually on Pc you have been able to download custom maps for months now. Do some research before you trash a game.

Limited_Vertigo5720d ago

He was pointing out that you can't download custom maps in game like other Steam games like DayofDefeat, and CS:S. Do a little more reading before disagreeing with someone's post.

i owned left 4 dead and played it with my friends, i thought it was lame and not worth what I payed for it it so I will not be buying the second one

the game isn't for everyone

tehReaper5720d ago

Details about the L4D2 Demo aren't for everyone, including you. Why are you here, if you care not?

omfgtehbrawlpwner5720d ago

your right it isnt for everyone.... its for people who have friends to play with

outlawlife5720d ago

well i'm glad both of you read through the posts thorough;y

good work guys

Serial_EDX5721d ago

I bought the game on release, It was fun for a few months. It really sucked when my friends stopped playing it because, Well playing with random people online just is not as enjoyable.

Serial_EDX5721d ago

Now that I think about it I might just pick it up on pc. I'm really starting to play it more then my consoles.

XD kinda sad I'm playing fiesta more then I am my 60$ games.

The Emperor5720d ago

why would I? i'm not the one being a PS3 suck up...

artsaber5721d ago

Will be left for dead on the store shelves waiting on me to buy it. No thanks, the first was fun for a minute, but fell off quick. *Moves to the AAA list to see what to buy next... "ahhh, Demon's Souls, there you are."*

The Emperor5720d ago

gotta be a fanboy for a demo release? Comon man, maturity?
Anyways I will be buying this game, with friends is the way to go.

skeletonss5720d ago

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

GamerRN454d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit454d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead454d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica454d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL454d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit454d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash454d ago (Edited 454d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper454d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica452d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer454d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit454d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer454d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit454d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff2183454d ago (Edited 454d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer454d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff2183454d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper453d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal454d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood454d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff2183454d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde454d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.

Valve Made Left 4 Dead 2 Because The First Game Was A Broken Mess

Left 4 Dead lead Chet Faliszek describes the original Left 4 Dead game as "such a broken thing that nobody wanted to touch it."

ZycoFox566d ago

And then couldn't be arsed to make a third game.

If they can add a lot more stuff to a 2nd game in just 1 year why didn't they make a third game a few years later with tons of stuff extra? Because that shows they could've.

I know Source 2 was kind of broken and was a reason they cancelled L4D3 but it seems wasteful to just toss it away.

Don't know what Valve were thinking.. it's like nobody wanted to fix the issues to get going. They certainly aren't the Valve of 2004 that released fun games with pretty cutting edge graphics.

cthulhucultist564d ago

Valve is allergic to number 3 it seems. It would be easier for them to release a Left 4 Dead 2.5 enhanced version instead of releasing a game with "3" slapped on its title.

rakentaja564d ago

They stopped making games a long time ago. Steam brings in so much money that it's really not worth the effort. Nowadays, people only look for faults in games, and spend more time whining on Twitter/X than playing the game anyway. Valve says a big fat no-no.

anast564d ago

Value is the Blockbuster of video games. They have no need to invest in deving a game, when they can make handfuls of cash renting them.

-Foxtrot566d ago

What are they talking about? Seemed pretty alright to me at launch it just wasn't supported the way Valve promised us

They should have just worked on a revamp / massive update to the game but they didn't they jumped straight to a sequel with brand new characters despite having some sort, if small, story about where the original survivors were heading.

I didn't care for the direction they took the sequel, the original games tone and atmosphere was missing in the second game and is still unmatched. Daytime levels, more whackiness, melee weapons where you could attack a Tank with a frying pan...just wasn't the same to be honest and the new survivors just didn't hold up the originals.

Here's my speculation. I think they did a sequel because they didn't want to update a game co-developed by Turtle Rock, they wanted the franchise to be known as a Valve game only and knew if they updated the first one Turtle Rocks name would still linger on it.

shaenoide564d ago

I want broken games like L4D all day long...

GhostScholar564d ago

Well the first game was by far the best
