Beautiful Simplicity

November 21st, 2008 · Luke · 1 Comment

There are a ton of video games that have come out this pre-holiday season, including a number that are considered must-haves by gamers across the globe.

Moving through mid November, I thought few things could top my experience with Fallout 3, which had solidly taken hold of my ‘game of the year’ spot.   I couldn’t have been more wrong, though.

Left4Dead isn’t a complicated game.  It pits 4 people against a horde of undead, populated by both normal zombies and special ‘boss’ zombies.  Besides the co-op, it has a Vs. mode in which actual people fill the rolls of the boss zombies.

Playing this tonight, in both Vs. mode and regular co-op, has been the most fun I’ve had playing video games in months, easily.

Whether you get it on Steam or on the 360, I consider this game the most fun since Portal.

Act accordingly.

    First!

    …and I heartily agree. Left 4 Dead has been some of the most fun multiplayer PC gaming action I’ve had in quite some time. It’s a shame you got it on the 360, Luke… now I can’t barf on you.

    Nor can I barf on you in the game.
