Zombie madness? Fo sho!

Valve's masterful creation - Left 4 Dead is one of the best games of the year. It's a zombie FPS, which involves you, and 3 other people (bots, your XBL buddies or random Koreans) shooting them in the face, and other body parts. For a cooperative shooter - it's very good. The coop works well, and the game's pretty atmospheric. There is practicly no storyline, and there are only 4 zombie-filled campaigns to play though (each about 1hr long on Normal). It is kind of short, but since there's Versus mode, which lets you play as a zombie, it is a pretty good package. And since there's DLC coming this spring - you'll have a blast if you choose to play Left 4 Dead. It's cooperative zombie killing funtime, and you shouldn't regret buying it!

Pros

Fun and addicting gameplay.
Good co-op play.
Versus mode, which lets you play as a zombie.

Cons

Short.
No real storyline.

8.5/10
