Now this may be a cool tie in for fans of the Capcom game when they see it but if you spin around in the same room, you'll see something even cooler. On the opposite wall there's a posting about the possibility of an M60.
In the new Left 4 Dead 2 levels, the M60 was added to the survivors' arsenal with great results. What does this have to do with a posting on a wall? Well the posting on the wall is by none other than Crazy Dave of Plants vs. Zombies fame.
Over the last few weeks Gamejudgment's Emily Clarke started playing through Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2's downloadable content. Here are her thoughts.
I never bought any of the DLC, not sure why. The only reason I stopped playing was due to repeating each of the maps countless times; the DLC definately would've helped out.
Every week, there is a new mutation released on both PC and Xbox 360 for Left 4 Dead 2, but today's one (december the 3rd) is the most important to notice since it announces that community created mods is striving to make its way for the Xbox gaming with the next week's upcoming mutation:
Mutation Madness!
"As we continue to update bi-weekly, we will be incorporating some of these community Mutations. To make a Mutation, you will need to build and test your mutation on the PC but we will release them on both PC and Xbox 360. So user created content is beginning to see itself on the Xbox 360!"
Update: The Left 4 dead 2 user created mods for mutations can be enjoyed by Xbox 360 owners ONLY after buying "The passing" DLC (and Left 4 Dead 2 of course).
This is VERY good news ... it means that Valve may be cracking pieces of MS' shield. A bit of hope for the future, me thinks.
Open it up MS, you know it'll only add more value to your service; you dont give enough to justify 60 bucks a year as is... keep provide'n for us son.
-Kenny Gizzle, OUT.
PACE KALOWEST.
Eh, it's lackluster, IMHO. You have to make it on the PC and then it _could_ make its way to the 360. And, it requires additional DLC.
Microsoft needs to just open their infrastructure and allow independent platforms to work alongside the XBL infrastructure, much like cloud elements.
This sounds better : Valve:"FREE user created content is beginning to see itself on the Xbox 360!"
No it is not free since you NEED TO BUY the DLC to play it!
Well for "FREE" user created content on consoles, you need to go on PS3, it was the case a long time ago with Unreal Tournament 3 (maps, mods, skins, mutators, etc..) and it will be the same case for the upcoming valve games on PS3 beginning with Portal 2.
Um...I think you missed his point, dude. He's saying he'd be more excited, if that was the case...he's not saying the headline is worded incorrectly or anything. :o
A step in the right direction, the mutations in L4D2 are such a good mode to play.
GO VALVE GO!!!
finally, but there was no requirements to purchase DLC for the PS3.. Also the built in browser made downloading free content a snap
MS should allow Valve to give the 360 version of the game the support they want too...
hopefully when L4D is released on PS3 we will see player maps being ported into the ps3 version.
...and character updates. I wanna go medival on someone with an axe wrapped in barbed wire dammit.
As you probably know, today is Veteran’s Day. On this special holiday, we honor the brave men and women who proudly defended their country and the rest of the free world from evil. If you have family and friends that served or currently serve in the armed forces, be sure to thank them for risking their lives.
That said, we would also like to salute the virtual heroes, the video game characters that continue to fight the good fight, so without further ago, we’re proud to present just a handful of the greatest video game war veterans of all time.

A solid list, with some great video Game war heroes. Glad to see Solid Snake and Bill in there.
