I think it's going to be funny to see members of the L4D2 boycott group suddenly realize that the game is awesome when it'll come out...VALVe keep giving us awesome games and free things and these guys keep crying!
Oh well. Can't wait to play some of these games~
The reason why we hate left 4 dead 2 is beacuse it's new crispy overpriced DLC.
They are just like microsoft, they care nothing about the people and expect greatness from those same people. Plus they wring every cent from us, shown by the sequel, which could be new DLC.
And why not on the PS3. It's a zombie state-of-emergency, why fight one tank per level when you and can have 3, 6 hunters, 2 boomers and a smoker dying from lung cancer. Plus non stop zombie carnage. Seems like they are jealous that they were bought in from Microsoft.
That's how L4D2 is bad. (not a flame war on consoles, but the greedy owners)
i honestly dont see how valve is doing anything wrong. when the survival pack came out (which was fun as hell) everyone was acting like they were gods. now they release a sequel that is sure to be amazing and there money hungry?
@GoGoGadgetFlow:
They meant least surprisingly awesome game. What that means that they expected it would be awesome. Which it is.
Anyways, I read the Valve interview thing. And if the group is going to meet up with the originals, then that'd be just plain epic. And weren't they thinking about having 16 characters meeting up? If they do that, they should have a 10 year old. I mean just imagine it. It would be hilarious. The little kid getting his ass handed to him by a Tank? Epic. Plain Epic. But most of these awards I agree with.
Hmm...so if Alan Wake is like the early Silent Hill games I'm guessing it should be something like, "Okay, okay, there's nothing there, its just an empty corner, keep it togeth-AGH! WTF was that?! Okay I'm just gonna start on a jog now, its ok, its not real nothing can actually-OMFG THERE'S THAT NOISE AGAIN! Shit how'd I end up in the woods? Okay I'm gonna be fine, I don't hear anything its quiet...Its too quiet...Hello? Omg something is out there! RUN AWAY!"
game radar i totally agree with you on the Left 4 Dead 2 award, as a Left 4 Dead fan it makes me confused and sad that people are so spoiled in this world to demand something out of a video game company... as if what they think matters.
about the halo storyline, yes, I am pretty invested in the halo story, its a very good one. I own all 6 novels and they are great (and are not needed to get the storyline what so ever, but expands on the story).
I personally don't get why people are confused by halo's story, but then again, don't know why people think the last 2 matrix movies have no plot.
Wow, I knew you guys weren't big Halo fans but I never expected you guys to be so outright hostile towards the series (you guys gave Halo 3 a 10). ODST's demo wasn't any more unentertaining than Modern Warfare 2's. In fact, they follow the same basic formula. First you go through an un-lethal lead-in to the main level, then you do some light fighting (fighting Brutes in ODST and killing people during the blizzard in MW 2), and ending with an action-packed finale (snowmobiles in MW2 and the fight on the bridge for ODST). And for Reach, you said you need to read the novels to understand the game. That's simply not true. Reach was mentioned a lot in Halo 1 and 2, mainly during the opening cutscenes. And the Spartans that talked during the trailer weren't even characters from the novel. And Bungie wouldn't blatantly release the game requiring you to have read The Fall of Reach just to understand it. It'd probably be a parallel story that explains the same basic thing, but from a different viewpoint and with different experiences. As for Halo's plot being confusing, I don't see it. If you take in everything from the novels and games (which I can tell from the article you don't take the novels into account), then I can see it being a little confusing, but not the core trilogy. I'm aware this site isn't exactly a haven for Halo fans, and I'm sure that if anyone takes notice of this comment, they'll want to flame me for it. So I'll make it easier for you. I will never check up on the comments for this article again. If you want to make sure I see you insulting me, please PM me instead. I'm not trying to be a fanboy that says everything other than Halo sucks (I love Modern Warfare) and 360 rules over PS3. I only have a 360 so I can't comment on the PS3 from firsthand experience. Sorry for taking up so much space. And also, Mass Effect has novels too.
