Zombies, you've gotta love em.
XBox 360 and PC gamers rejoice, the long awaited co-op zombie fest is almost here!
Turtlerock studios, responsible for a great deal of AI development and waypoints come out of hiding after the mis-targetted Couter Strike: Condition Zero to unleash more of their expertise in terms of all things half-life. Left 4 Dead, a Source based (Half-Life 2 engine) game releases before the end of the year and is sure to be a hit.
Reason 1. I love Dawn of the Dead, this game is most likely to be the closest to it that we'll see for a while to come.
Reason 2. Turtlerock truly know their stuff when it comes to AI, the game being based around a director role and dynamic gameplay making the game varied for different playthrough can only be another piece of padding on the armour.
Reason 3. Based on the rapidly aging Source engine can only mean it'll be available to a wide audience early on (something that has kept Counter-Strike in such a dominating position for years).
Reason 4. As an XBox 360 game it will no doubt have the shine and lustre in a similar vein to the Orange box (did I mention Gabe Newell is ex-MS?).
Reason 5. If you hadn't been keeping track of the images scroll back to the top and see what you missed.
I've the highest expectations for the game and though not looking to be available for the PlayStation at the present time it's still a cross platform game that is sure to reach both the most bub-like doom playing zombie heads out there as well as the halo/call of duty newcomers.
Look forward to releases on the XBox360 and PC soon
