Left 4 Dead 50% off on Steam.
Right now on steam you can pick up a copy of valves newest hit “Left 4 Dead” at an alarming 50% off. I must say I had avoided buying this game up until this point, solely because of its’ cost… I cant really just ify $50 for a game unless it happens to strike me in just a certain way.
From what I understand so far, this game is essential a little bit Man Hunt mixed with a little bit resident evil, multiplayer. Anyways, I’ll probably purchuse before the weekends out, and will try to post my review accordingly. If you own the game, why not buy a friend a copy, cause “it’s the zombie apocalypse, so you’d better bring friends…”

EDIT:
been playing the game since work, it is pretty fun… I’m kinda running out of stuff to try in single player, but hopefully some mod packs exist out there. Multi-player is fun, and offers a great team-work experience, I’ll be working it into my regiment pretty soon.
Overall its a new valve game, which isn’t bad. It’s not the most inovative game on the market by far, but what it does do, it does right and that means a lot. If you don’t own this game, I’d still suggest picking it up, especially at 50% off.
PS- Watching the zombies fold over with awesome ragdoll effects is quit3e possible my favorite part.
I need to find a game to play on my laptop.
Whats the specs? Without knowing I’d suggest:
Shooter(FPS):
Unreal Tournament (low specs), unreal tournament 2k4(med specs), or Unreal tournament 3 (mid-high-ish specs).
Adventure(RPG):
Fallout 1(low specs), fable or Diablo II(mid specs), ummm… Bioshock? (high-ish specs)
Racing:
Need For Speed III: Hot Pursuit (low specs), GRID and DIRT (mid-high-ish)
Real Time Strategy (RTS):
Starcraft (low Specs), Command & Conquer: Generals (mid specs), Command $ Conquer 3 (high specs)
SandBox/Free Ranging:
GTA: 3 and GTA: Vice City (low Spec), Garry’s Mod (Mid Spec), GTA: IV (high spec)
Sorry if some of this sounds patronizing (like saying RTS after Real Time Strategy, It’s not targeted at you in particular, but it’s good info to have here for future reference.
If your wondering if you can run one of the games, head here and use their java applet to check:
