I liked L4D for about three weeks but I'm not gonna buy L4D2 unless they have atleast 4 different types of games.
Yea, there was about 4 different game types in the first wasn't there? Online co-op, single player, online Vs, offline vs, survival mode...yea, about five I can come up with, and now survival comes with L4D2 off the bat, so that'll be awesome.
to me offline and online are the same thing and even four modes isnt that buy-worthy
Feh, either way, I'm buying it. Feel free to buy it if you like, I'm not going to try and force facts down upon you.

My only complaints are the black-guys only group
What game are you talking about?

In Left 4 Dead 2, the characters are as follows:

Coach: A black man who coaches American football
Nick: A white conman/gambler
Ellis: A young, white mechanic
Rochelle: A black lady who works as a television reporter
If that's true then it's my mistake, sorry.

I could have sworn I saw 4 black guys who busted out chainsaws...

Can't say I care much for the incinerator rounds, but if they play well I can dig it :p
And that mechanic guy annoys me. Other than that its all good.

Of course it will be good. It's a Valve game, and one based on a superb original game.

Whether it is £40 better than the original remains to be seen.

Having only seen 1 trailer and a few minutes of gameplay footage, I'm not going to make any further comments until I see and hear some more.

I'm still slightly pissed off that they didn't take my idea and call it "Left 2 Die" as a more "creative" way. Also I have a feeling that characters with Southern accents are going to piss me off after a while.

So, Valve announced the sequel to arguably one of the best games ever, Left 4 Dead. I mean, sure, some people, 2114 to be precise, are pissed off on Steam and formed a group about it. I mean, c'mon! It's not that bad. I for one am looking forward to it. New melee weapons, characters, stages, incinerator rounds, and a new special infected. Can't wait to use the new upgraded weapons also, new pistols, shotguns, assault rifle, and that wicked awesome axe. What do you people think about the newest zombie extravaganza?

Arguably one of the best games ever? The hell are you smoking? Yes it was fun, but no where near the greatness of some epic titles
I meant all time for this console generation. My apologies for the non-specification.
What the hell, I can name ten games this generation that are miles better than Left 4 Dead. And in random order too!

1. Metal Gear Solid 4
2. Uncharted
3. Halo 3
4. The Darkness
5. Half Life 2 Episode 2
6. CoR: Assault on Dark Athena
7. Call of Duty 2
8. Punch Out
9. Rock Band
10. GTA IV
Uncharted? CoD2? The Darkness? No offense, but are you on something? CoD4 was miles better than CoD2, the Darkness was riddled with horrible design, and Uncharted was a Tomb Raider clone with a different character.
And what was L4D? A zombie game with coop, no story, and about six different weapons. You're the one who is one something Sir DeTwat
Oh wow, nice insult, your mother pick it out for you. L4D is awesome in every sense of the word, I'm still playing it and I got it when if first came out. It' addicting, a true blue zombie survivor, and I pity you for not enjoying it.
Actually, your mother picked out the insult, and I'm assuming she eve picked out yours. L4D does not have an awesome story, graphics, weapon variety, or hell, even zombie variety. The game is decent, and I play at least once a week, but now you're just being led like a blind fanboy.
Fanboy huh? Give yourself a round of applause for making that claim. And another one while we're at it for attempting to turn my insult against me. I'll admit the story is lacking, but that doesn't matter, all the other things make up for it. The level design, the unpredictability of where zombies will come from next, it feels so immersive.
No, the AI director was overrated. Woo hoo, a tank appears at usually the worst time possible. Such variety. Considering on the first Dead Air level a smoker appears nine times out of ten in a window during the first crescendo. The game is about immersive for five minutes, then you hear someone spam BOOMER BOOMER BOOMER on their mics for about 10 minutes. And yes, you are a fanboy, because you seem unable to understand obvious flaws in the game. Let's also take into the fact that the game is incredibly short in solo player, not to mention solo player is not fun at all.

The game lacks a story, so it is hard to care about the characters you are playing as in the game. The characters, except for Louis, were bland and cliche. The music was alright, however, this is not the case in the new one.

The game is littered with numerous glitches, like getting switched to different teams on versus when someone quits, and not to mention the bypass of half of the entire first chapter by taking a leap of faith.

The game has 6 different guns, and two different grenades. The guns are practically better versions of earlier weapons. The achievements are random and stupid, such as kill 53,594 zombies (it got old in Dead Rising)

I can excuse flaws in a game, but a game with no story (at all), little variety in levels or gun play, no real character developments, annoying glitches, and considering the game has no SDK to offer so far, I'd call it a waste of money for the full 50 dollars.
No Story? the story is written on the walls of the saferooms. if people took their time and read them you would find out that there 53,594 total population in the area and that they are all infected.
