L4D: 44 Minutes of lovely footage to watch!
BlindsideDork | 12:03 PM on 10.02.2008 13 comments



44 minutes and 27 seconds to be exact. That is what you will find in the greatest game ever which is soon to be released in the most epic month of November. It can't come soon enough for this amazing title. Have I mentioned how good it is/will be yet?

It isn't like Metal Gear Solid 4 and all in one cut scene. The game contains 44 minutes of cut scenes total. So expect each "movie" to have an opening, middle, and ending cutscenes. I seriously can't wait! You shouldn't be able to either.

The British Board Film Classification divulges this info when they rated it 18 for "frequent strong bloody violence and gore." I'm salivating! Here's their entier information...

LEFT 4 DEAD is a team-based action horror game played from the first-person perspective. Each player takes the role of one of four human survivors in a ruined city, desperately trying to survive against a horde of the undead. The game was classified '18' for frequent strong bloody violence and gore.

The player has at their disposal a range of weapons from a pistol to machine guns, shotguns and grenades. While weapons such as the pistol and small machine guns cause blood to spurt from characters' bodies when they are hit, higher-powered items such as the machine gun, shotgun and sniper rifle are capable of blasting off limbs or even heads, with chunks of flesh seen falling to the ground. The environments (e.g. walls, floors) are also covered with blood in an area where characters have been shot. Dead bodies are occasionally seen on the ground and some of these have been eviscerated with sight of entrails, missing limbs and so on.

At '15' The BBFC's Guidelines state that 'violence may be strong but may not dwell on the infliction of pain or injury', and that 'the strongest gory images are unlikely to be acceptable'. LEFT 4 DEAD includes frequent sight of such gory images, and the player is generally unable to progress through a level without shooting dozens of enemies, with an arsenal of realistic weapons that cause bloody damage throughout. The game was therefore classified '18'.

Language in the game includes mild and moderate language, such as 'shit' and 'bitch'.


Great. It is just great news and I am thirstin' for some flesh!

Of course the demo could help satisfy cravings for the living but that's not out to November. At least we can pre-order it in stores or wait until October 15 to pre-order on Steam to save 10%. It still won't help November 17 to happen sooner!

Man, the character redesigns are amazing. I doubted, I apologize Valve! Natural and strong. I like it.

And man, Zoey looks like she hopped straight out of Princess of Mars or At the Earth's Core. Oops my nerd fell out.
NotAZombie's Destructoid Blog
I know you probably want it first day but if you want to save some money you should preorder it on Amazon because it's going for $36.99 right now.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
No self-respectng fan of Zombies and L4D would forfeit day one playability for a cheaper price!

NotAZombie, I am a bit ashamed. I hope you aren't waiting. :(
NotAZombie's Destructoid Blog
But it's $13! And look at my name, I trust you know I loves teh zombies.

I'm a bit ashamed for the people buying this on 360 though.

Not all of us are "cool" enough to own a PC...or rich and "cool" enough to own a GAMING PC!

Dork just follow these handy tips and you will BE a PC!


ZeroTolo's Destructoid Blog
Wait a minute... I came here thinking that there was 44 minutes of footage to watch right now... That's not cool, man.
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
I agree with ZeroTolo. I'm pissed.

Also, Amazon will often ship releases so they arrive on release day.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
It is not guaranteed on release day...they will give you your money back but you also have to wait a day.

NOT WORTH the chance!

@RockVillian: Funny thing about those "I'm a PC" commercials, they were edited on Apple computers.

Fun factoid!

Also, "greatest game ever" really? You are going to call it that soon? I've got a raging clue over this game, but I won't call that just yet.
EternalDarkWing's Destructoid Blog
Blindside is not "cool" because he does not have a gaming PC.
TheDreadHawk's Destructoid Blog
I can't wait for it either. It's sexy. VERY SEXY. Almost too sexy.
