PC - Left 4 Dead - Shocking: Left 4 Dead Rated M by ESRB Well, shockingly, Left 4 Dead was rated "M" by the ESRB for PC and Xbox 360. Apparently, the projectile vomiting, exploding corpses, undead prehensile tongues, disembowelings, decapitations, blood, gore, and general mayhem warranted the harsh rating.

Honestly, "Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Language"? The ESRB can be so moralistic and exclusive - this is a perfect game for kids. It teaches them how to survive a zombie apocalypse. Letting them play is actually a civic duty.

Are you looking forward to this sweet, casual education game?

PC - Left 4 Dead - Edge: Left 4 Dead's $10M Ad Campaign Half-Life house Valve Software is counting on a horde of living dead and tight co-op play to rake in the cash this holiday season with the horror shooter Left 4 Dead.

But the studio is trying to leave as little to chance as possible, as the firm told Edge exclusively on Thursday it will be spending $10 million (£5.9m) on a consumer campaign that will incorporate television, online, print and outdoor advertising across the country. The game is slated to ship on November 17 on Xbox 360 and PC.

"People had really strong reactions to Left 4 Dead when we started showing it," said Valve managing director Gabe Newell in an interview. "Our pre-orders are running 60 percent ahead of Orange Box. This in combination with the fact that it is a new IP made us think that an extensive marketing program made a lot of sense."

PC - Left 4 Dead - Left 4 Dead to be Cut Scene Free Kotaku writes:
"Left 4 Dead is very much a zombie apocalypse game, you'll find no deeper meaning here, no Romero-esque political message.

The game opens on the game's four characters at ground zero two weeks after the rise of the zombies. Left 4 Dead will have a short introduction, created by the team behind the Team Fortress 2 cut-scenes, but that will be the only cut scene gamers will see in Left 4 Dead."
