Lookin' good!

I tried the Left4Dead2 Demo and it's AWESOME!!! The graphics are way better then the the first one and it runs smoother. I only played it once so far but I like the characters and the new zombies they added. Also the melee attack items are way cool! Just one funny glitch I noticed - while playing I kept seeing a random gun on the ground (I was playing single player mode offline) and kept trying to pick up the weapon and couldn't. Then when we were running to the safe room I noticed that the gun I hadn't been able to pick up was actually attached to the foot of one of the AI players and he was dragging it along with him to the safe room. Then I noticed another player - same thing - different gun attached to his foot. It was kind of funny actually. ROFL After the save the guns disappeared. I'm sure they'll get all the bugs worked out before release date but now I can't wait to get this game! Hey - what comes with the pre-order of the game? LadyOfDarkness

LadyOfDarkness Well, one thing was the early demo access that I gave you. I take it you liked it. You also get an "exclusive" baseball bat plus 5 bucks off of the price of the game. So it makes good finacial sense to pre order it. About the gun you couldn't pick up I'll just say this: Left 4 dead i the best shooter I've ever played, (imo guys) , but at the same time it's the glitchiest game I've ever played. If you play it enough you're going to see alot wierder things than that.

Lol But as cap pointed out the other day isn't the baseball bat kind of a shitty "exclusive". I'm not complaining but they could have given us something better than that.

If the bat had land mines taped to it it would be a good exclusive. Imagine blowing up waves of zombies by smacking one with a land mine baseball bat?

Yes, the bat is a shitty exclusive, especially since it is just a skin, not an actual exclusive item. But Gamestops exclusive gimmicks get people in the door so they keep doing it.

Played demo myself, felt just like versus when i played that at Eurogamer...seems like an awesome game, even if an add on...can't wait for this and MW2!

That's business, you cant give certain players a god hand weapon and all the "common folk" have to use frying pans, that just aint kosher, it HAS to be just a basic cosmetic change. -Else you will get crap like "pre-order players can use non preorder players, or as they will now be known as, felwhelps, as mounts during play"

Just downloaded the demo from steam & had a bash, its pretty good! The dead are a bit too frantic for my liking, but its fun! Ive played some gory games in my time but never been able to shred things quite as much as in this!

Ive played some gory games in my time but never been able to shred things quite as much as in this! The gore is definitely top notch and puts the first game to shame. Makes me wonder what the first game could have been had it had the finacial backing of this one. Oh well, I guess they can make it up in the form of DLC.

I found a machete in the demo & you can do some serious damage with that! I can't get enough of lopping heads off myself. lol But if you think that gave you a woody wait until you can rev up the chainsaw!! As a matter of fact, speaking of the demo, as the saying goes, " we ain't seen nothing yet." No Flame rounds, explosive rounds (grenade launcher) and that realism mode looks crazy as hell. Don't know if i posted it before but here's a link. Check it out, if you're anticipating this game you won't be sorry. http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/70...uture-DLC.html
