Zombies invade your monitors!
BlindsideDork | 10:07 AM on 11.17.2008 30 comments


Tomorrow will be a day that history is made of and you all should know why. To help support, you can plaster one of four images on the back of your computer screen. You know...wallpapers? Take your pick of each in three different sizes.


Generic logos work well...





And who doesn't like being a hero?






For the zombie lovers, get the bosses!





Or the regular herd works as well...




For all/full sizes plus screenshots and movies, hit it up!


Can you believe it is finally here? All this waiting, all this anticipation. Finally, my reason to own an Xbox 360 has arrived*. I can't wait and I am chomping at the bit. Who's going to be online to kill some with me?


*Note: Yes I know that it is properly played on PC and that's how it is meant to be played, blah blah blah, fail for mentioning it again. But as I said before, NO PC means NO STEAM."

The Bez's Destructoid Blog
Is there going to be a Dtoid PC left 4 dead group? I tried the demo on both 360 and pc and it was unplayable on the 360 laggy and just unfun.
Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog
I'll be on the 19th, when Amazon ships me my copy. I want to be the chick because she's cool.
dronkmunk's Destructoid Blog
Didn't you know this game = fail after about a month?

Or should I say "Stail"?
RHWeeeee6's Destructoid Blog
Nice. Damn cool walls, I like the cast one the best.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Really? I have come across 0 lag when playing it online. Are you doing it wrong?


And why would this game be fail after a month?
dronkmunk's Destructoid Blog
I just don't see a lot of replay value happening, to be honest. The demo was really repetitive. I am not sure either how fun it is going to be on the zombie side of things in VS mode. But we will see. My fear is that I will wait until I can get this game for half-price and by then no one will be playing anymore
falinter's Destructoid Blog
i feel bad for all the games i am going to stop playing when this comes out tomorrow. :( poor fallout. I tried to beat you in time but you will be set aside for awhile.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Repetitive? Everytime I played it, it was different. Sure the level was the same but everything else from where the guns/ammo were to what bosses were present and when and where the zombie rushes would come from.a Sounds like you had a bowl of fail this morning.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Sorry, you just can't talk baddly about L4D to me (especially in my blog) without me coming to its aid. :P
xMalachi's Destructoid Blog
DronkMonk you fail. L4D = Win on all levels. I am excited to get in on some L4D action. I'm getting it for 360 but I'm definately picking it up for PC later on. I did the same with Orange Box. L4D seemed to play a bit better on PC for sure but I have so many friends to play with on XBL I just can't justify not getting it for 360.
nukka jdav's Destructoid Blog
I am going absolutely nuts waiting to play...

And I'm on PC so we def. need to get a group together as I can see and anticipate that Destructoid will have some very faithful L4D players.

@dronkmunk I think this game will have an immense amount of replay value. Also, don't forget about how good Valve is with DLC. They already have new "movies" in the making for the game. If they release those regularly, I will be an extra happy camper.
nukka jdav's Destructoid Blog
Ha, group name = Left 4 Deadstructoid...heh...no? Okay..

Also, preloading the game is fucking torture. Knowing all the data is there...its like putting chastity belt of sorts on the 360 DVD case, but this chastity belt is made of 1's and 0's.
scsitransfer's Destructoid Blog
crap....I need to stay up all night to finish the games I am working on Y_Y
s0lesurviv0r's Destructoid Blog
I gotta wait till thanksgiving to get paid again dammit. I was hoping to cling to the last droplets from last payday but I gotta get a new tire, why can't they be made out of stone like the Flintstones?
blehman's Destructoid Blog
Tooooooooomoooorrow, tomorrow, I'm killing zombies, tomorrow, it's only a daaaaaaaaaayy


aaaaaaaaaaaa



WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
ChronosWing's Destructoid Blog
@dronkmunk

Not if you get the pc version. User mods and User maps will make this game last forever.
bloodylip's Destructoid Blog
Why are you wasting your time with L4D blog posts when there are videos of Nick Chester singing to share with the world?
bloodylip's Destructoid Blog
Also, needs moar widescreen.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Karaoke videos tomorrow (have to fix the lighting tonight).
dronkmunk's Destructoid Blog
Zombies =/= instawin. Thats all i have to say on this subject forthwith.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
It's ok dronk..you fail, some people do more than others. We all have our moments.

I still <3 you. I just kill zombies and you...fail. :P
Mxyzptlk's Destructoid Blog
@ The Bez: Really? I had absolutely zero issues with the 360 version. No lag and controlled just fine.
nukka jdav's Destructoid Blog
The only problem I had with the 360 version (which I will buy anyway) is that I had been playing the PC version for hours before I tried it out. So of course it felt slower and more difficult overall, but I still enjoyed it.
blehman's Destructoid Blog
Hell, the only problem I have with the 360 is it takes a minute to get into the menu and flip to invert the controls when you join a game. A minute that you could be killin zombies.
nukka jdav's Destructoid Blog
@Blehman You can't set a default? That seems pretty dumb to me, oh well, it also seems like something they would fix sooner than later.
mix's Destructoid Blog
Totally jacking these walpapers when I get home!
blehman's Destructoid Blog
@Nukka

Not in a demo, at least.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Can't you set your 360 profile to default to invert controls?
Velt's Destructoid Blog
I think Valve will support this game with regular updates, similar as TF2, which is still awesome even after months.
ChronosWing's Destructoid Blog
Updates yes, but 360 users will miss out on the user generated content.
