This game SUCKS! The complainer complains about minor mistakes in great games.

I think the idea of zombies has been changed so many times that they can almost anything. So saying they HAVE to stumble is reduntant.

So i´m reduntant?.Zombies stumble.It's a simple fact.No it makes no sense.But it makes more sense then having them run.

How can anything that has to do with zombies be a fact? They don't exist...yet.

Seriously, dude, I have 3 children, my bladder is not what it once was, please could you stop being so f**king funny, it isn't fair, or clever ;-)

If it makes you feel better, I suffered for my genius.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to be pretty and talented?
It's a curse.

But alas, of course you do not.
For nobody can understand my delicious, sparkly suffering!

Why, yes! Yes I do.

And my day has only been slightly ruined by that pic, btw.

I just thought the game was straight up lame aside from being unrealistic and utterly unsatisfying. It's supposed to be a "community driven game" yet you only see 3 people at a time and your focus is on keeping their limbs intact not talking about furthering the games dynamics. The wash,rinse,and repeat in this game is worse than in World of Warcraft.(okay maybe that last statement was a bit harsh...)

As far as I can tell, the entire point of the whole topic is to indirectly fan flame wars. I see what you were going for, but left out the humor. You seem to forget that the AVGN, Yahtzee, etc. have comedy in their reviews.

I'm not a big fan of L4D, but I like the idea that valve was being original and making fun of the old movie cliches from the original great zombie flicks.

In short(er), you're not funny. Please try again.

Kingdom Hearts... WHY IS X ATTACK AND CIRCLE JUMP???

That's serious, that's one of the worst game-controller decisions of all time. Literally the worst !!!!

 

[Jenova65]

Why, yes! Yes I do.

I look better in person.
More sparkles.

I'll give you that then, but do you scowl better?

Please stop putting that picture up, he's really annoying (and my husband thinks I am a nutter as it, sniggering at the laptop)
I mean couldn't you find any pictures of Spike?!

So this thread is basically for you people to make your complaints known. Hyperbole is perfectly fine as you'll see with my review, but just let flow your own or perhaps even your first review. Mine is.....

"LEFT 4 DEAD"

Not very often does there come a zombie apocolypse game that truly startles and envigorates a community of gamers, Left 4 Dead is not one of those games. While Valve promised a zombie game, they developed another 'infection' storyline with super-fast running infected. Sorry Valve, but zombies stumble towards you slowly. They don't barrel at you. Not only that but Valve actually have the balls to call you stupid to your face.

You start the game as four individuals that are obviously immune from the 'infected' put in a room where you can choose one of three weapons that NEVER JAM and always have a gigantic pile of infinite ammunitation scattered around. Yeah, that makes sense in the zombie apocolypse (or 'infected apocolypse). Any group would just abandon a ton of ammo during that time. *rolls eyes*

You play as either the old war vet who is just as fast as the youngsters and keeps up with them as well, or the black guy who was included so Valve wouldn't be called racist, or the biker guy who hates almost everything in the game, or the attractive woman who is not much more. This was a brilliant chance for Valve to be daring and incorporating a challenge timed to the calendar setting on our Xbox's and computers. We all know that zombies/infected have a terrific sense of smell, so Valve could've made it that difficulty was based on what time of the month it was. But no, just like every other female character there must me no mention of 'Aunt Flo'.

Now for the special infected that ruin the game. The tank is actually a reasonable monster who is basically a overpowered smashing device. However shots to the face don't really register as well to this beast so that a full shotgun clip can fill it and it'll still be moving. Next would be the monster that has Valve laughing at how stupid you are. Yes, you. Because you thought of this and didn't say anything but I WILL. The Boomer is a retarded mass of crap. They actually warn you not to get hit with his bile because it attracts 'the horde', so you must push him away and shoot him. What happens when you shoot him? He explodes, which logically would send bile around the area no matter what as well as ooze near his dead corpse. But nope, you're perfectly safe after you blow him up. Sorry Valve, I guess you just expect us to understand that gas explosions would still allow for liquid to exist. The smoker is next, with a tongue that for some reason regenerates yet when shot to death cannot regenerate itself. Add that the tongue when wrapped around a survivor doesn't hold their arms forcably to their sides, which allows for the survivor to easily get away from the beast...yet they just squirm and die slowly. Followed lastly by the hunter, who can jump terrific distances even though it'd be impossible for our bodies in any condition to do such. Not to mention that the hunter won't even do the logical thing of ripping the eyes out of the survivor when it leaps upon them. No, it would rather just slightly claw at the shoulders instead.


So "Left 4 Dead", a game that was supposed to allow the many players around the world (except in Australia) to feel the reality of a zombie apocolypse falls flat to the rational people of the world who would actually like to know how we would stand up against the zombies. Valve, I understood you tried so I'm willing to give you a score of


3/10

This dosen't seem that small, you appear to have basically said almost everything in the game

Fallout 3: the sewers, that ruined the game for me, well that and too few quests

Hey remember when half-life first came out and there was that bug where you couldn't finish the game because of the one nutsack lookin monster that didn't know where to run to keep the game on track? that was a horrible mistake but since I've got valve's cock half-way down my throat I'm willing to grade it 2/10 jellybeans - game of the year? more like FAIL GAME OF THE MILLENIUM half-life blows

Half-Life 2 is horrible. You hear me? It sucks!

"Sandtraps" is dull and overly long. Ravenholm is frustrating (with Headcrab closets and obnoxious running zombies) and boring visuals. The fun physics objects aren't nearly as practical to use as killing instruments as they should be, leaving me FORCED to choose between a crap pistol that does no damage, an SMG with terrible accuracy, and a crowbar. Yeah, that's right, those are the only 4 weapons in the ENTIRE game. As if you needed more proof that Valve are complete tossers.

Another complaint I have is the graphics. Half-Life 2 looks decent at best. Nothing like Bioshock, which looks much better. In the audio department, the Combine are kind of interesting to listen to, but Headcrabs sound like retarded parakeets and the NPC speak is always some form of "have a med-kit" or "Excuse me, sir."

In fact, I dock HL2 1,000 points for the simple reason that NPC allies can't stop trying to hump me. Seriously, it's like they all had their brains taken out and replaced with Cocker Spaniel ones. No, Mr. Soldier, I did NOT tell you to "heel."

Half-Life 2's terrible graphics (not at all like Assassin's Creed), mediocre sound (my word does Vance's VA suck) and terrible gameplay (You know, at least Super Mario Bros had a useful pistol) combine to create an unplayable mess which I wouldn't recommend to anyone. I award it a 1/10 and urge you all to not buy it. Play Duck Hunt instead.

A much as this forum is about being a *****, the graphics suck ass on Bioshock and there are 12 weapons in the game you tard. Do your research.

It's always nice to see which people are capable of reading and understanding the written word and which aren't.

Why do poeple assume that games have to be extremely realistic in an unrealistic setting.

They don't have to make sense, thats why it's a game

OK, I am sick of saying this but:

ZOMBIES DON'T HAVE TO BE SLOW, DEAD, OR...... Slow and dead.
Zombie is actually a word, a word meaning "a person whose behavior or responses are wooden, listless, or seemingly rote; automaton."

The concept of a Zombie came FROM the word, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
So lets make a chart:

Zombie Musts: Stupid; Lifeless; to do without thought.

Zombie Must Not's: Dead, Slow, VIOLENT.

SO ZOMBIES CAN DO WHATEVER THE F@&# THEY WANT AS LONG AS THEY ARE RETARDED!!!!!


So.... Now back on topic......


YOU DON'T SCREW WITH BASIC CONTROL FORMAT, THE TOP BUTTON SHOULD NOT BE JUMP, THE BOTTOM SHOULD NOT BE PUNCH!! I'M LOOKING AT YOU MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 2!!!
