This is one of the best games that I have played in a while. It has plenty of action and gore that I love. I would defintely recommend it to everyone I know.

Played this game for many hours, so glad that they connected it to the workshop so you could add and modify stuff for it. Great game, definitely would recommend.

The original maps can be found in the second game, but it's still good to come back to this game sometimes
One thing that annoys me is that you can't buy the bundle if you own the game, therefore you have to pay full price if you want to buy both games for friends.

Me like it

Long review short: Left 4 Dead is good. Go play it, if you haven't already (which I highly doubt).

Long review long: Left 4 Dead is one of Valve's many titles that is made with the same care and quality they are known to put into a game. Although, to be completely fair, Left 4 Dead is probably my least favorite game by Valve so far.

Left 4 Dead follows a group of 4 humans who have managed to survive the zombie apocalyse and must fight their way through hordes of undead mobs in order to find safety. There's a hardened Vietnam vet, a young girl, a businessman, and a biker who's very obviously faking his masculinity throughout the game. The story and characters are, obviously, not that well fleshed-out (hence why I don't like L4D as much as say... Half-Life or Portal).

What Left 4 Dead is exceptionally good at is co-op zombie killing. The fast-paced action combined with tight FPS controls and multitude of weapons allow for some engrossing, addicting fun. It is designed around you getting online with a group of friends to play together, but since only one of my friends plays this game I decided to make the worst decision possible with Left 4 Dead: I played singeplayer with AI companions.

Now, the AI for the zombies is all well-done and polished. They run wildly at you and go for the first possible route that can lead to them ripping your throats out. But zombie AI is easy. And Valve seriously f***ed up with the ally AI. They're absolutely awful. They stay in the same group and are more of a hindrance than a help to you. I once was on the ground and needed assistance, while all three of my companions stood blindly 5 feet in front of me, staring at each other's feet, until I died right in front of them.

On top of that, the last level "The Sacrifice" is bulsh**. I don't care what anyone else says. I hated the finale. It goes against all intuition that the player has received in the game thus far. When I saw 4 motherf***ing Tanks come out with the hundreds of other zombies, I thought that I'd have to kill them all. It wasn't until I died 5 times that the game explicitly told me to restart the generator, which was an even bigger pain, because the zombies in the area will magnetize themselves to your fleshy body faster than you can say "Oops!". It's just a frustrating last few minutes to an otherwise enjoyable game.

Left 4 Dead is an enjoyable arcade-y zombie game that gives you the tingles whenever you hear the growls of a zombie in the distance, and is both enjoyable and intense to play, which many other zombie games have a tendency to struggle with. I know it's just a simple shooter game, but I still prefer Valve when they actually have stories to tell, but this is stull a fun game. It's worth your money. I'm giving Left 4 Dead a 7/10.

This game is too good much better then Left 4 Dead 2 i recommend this it is so good i love it i give it about 50/10 for such a great game Left 4 Dead is better then Left 4 Dead 2 and its style is better :D

Better then L4D2. Buy and play this game if you don't does that yet.
