Left For Dead 2 CONFIRMED for the PS3.
Y0j1mb0 | 6:12 PM on 06.20.2009 36 comments





Seems EA does want the money of PS3 owners even if Valve doesn't. Or maybe its a typo. What I do know is right now on the EA site they have it coming to the PS3.

Coincidence? I think NOT!
ikiryou's Destructoid Blog
I smell a potential Orange Box situation brewing up. o_0
Haxan's Destructoid Blog
Well, hell's yeah! If that's not a mistake on their part, I think you and I should cast aside our bans on FPS and get in on some zombie carnage PS3-style. And if it is a mistake, fuck it. That's what Street Fighter is for.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
@Haxan:

Exactly my thoughts my friend.
Magnalon's Destructoid Blog
This is amazing news.

@Jimbo
I keep getting your "play some games" message, you! I'm sorry I'm light on the PS3 games, and in addition, I don't have a mic for it yet (my PC mic is a standard salmon/green plug).

When I get my career started, I'll definitely join in with the latest titles: I'm still haggling with my wife to get Sacred 2.
Elsa's Destructoid Blog
Yeah, with Gabe's vocal hatred for the PS3, they won't be getting any Valve support for this game... so as IKIRYOU says, it will likely lead to an Orange Box situation.

... I guess it all depends on who they get to do the Port... hopefully they learned some lessons from The Orange Box (which was actually worthwhile for Portal alone... though I made sure I bought a used copy which I rarely do with other games! LOL!)
ammoelf3's Destructoid Blog
Maybe they'll make an Orange Box 2 with HL2: Episode 3, Portal 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 or something, and then never support L4D2 (on ps3).
Daxelman's Destructoid Blog
Well, I'm holding on to hope...
Daxelman's Destructoid Blog
Well wait, the official website still just has Steam and the 360 listed, so this could just be a fuck up on EA's side.
Zippyduda's Destructoid Blog
Oh shit son!

At first I thought you were bluffing as I couldn't find that image but realised you'd put it together, but it does show this.
Zippyduda's Destructoid Blog
Actually, I'm not so sure, as on the L4D website, it still only says Xbox/PC.

Me too Daxelman.
BlackFreefall's Destructoid Blog
Oh happy day for the PS3 users.
HiddenAHB's Destructoid Blog
I hope EA can pull this off alone, because Valve ain't putting their fingers in that.
I am a Xboxer, but i really like PS3 people, so, good luck guys!
Qraze's Destructoid Blog
i hope so. if codemasters can make a good ps3 game (overlord) then why can't valve? lazy gabe is a lazy valve.
FalconReaper's Destructoid Blog
If this is true, I think I'll join in on the PS3 style zombie massacring, but if not I'l just go back to re-training myself in Street Fighter.
Kyousuke Nanbu's Destructoid Blog
Sounds good to me, now PS3 owners can see its nothing more than a crappy overrated shooter than only sold because of the Valve name on the box.
covah's Destructoid Blog
Just like Final Fantasy XIII was confirmed for Japanese 360s?

I wouldn't be surprised if someone just fucked up.
BS3 Owner's Destructoid Blog
I <3 EA? Right now at least.

@ covah

Don't jinx the magic.
Ali D's Destructoid Blog
Wow, Valve must really hate their fans; now they're going to release L4D2 on the PS3! Now everyone can enjoy it!

(massive sarcasm by the way)
SilverDragon1979's Destructoid Blog
Knowing Valve's disgust of the PS3, I don't plan on touching the PS3 version of this game with a 10 foot pole. Sorry Yojimbo, but as much as I would enjoy playing this game with you on the PS3, I think I'll stick to the PC version. That sucks to, because I would love to kick some zombie ass beside you!!!
pascuz46's Destructoid Blog
I'm in the same boat as Silver Dragon. I love my PS3 and I really hope this is true so that all the people who where not able to play L4D could play it now. But my PC is good enough to run it so Ill be getting it on PC for sure. But Ill be getting Modern Warfare 2 for PS3 ;)
pedrovay2003's Destructoid Blog
@Silver

Everything Valve is always best on the PC, but the Orange Box on the PS3 was actually really well done, despite what people who have never played the game like to say. In fact, there are a few things I prefer in the PS3 version over the 360 version.

My only concern with this is how multiplayer is going to work, thanks to the PS3's lack of letting us log into more than on PSN ID at a time.
Video Cognito's Destructoid Blog
PC for me. I won't get a nerfed version. :/
Dr Spaceman's Destructoid Blog
i just checked the site, and they took the PS3 tag off of it. what's up with dat?
Black Nexus's Destructoid Blog
Id get it because I know this would make the FNF rotation, but Im not holding my breath .
fetusmilk's Destructoid Blog
but mooooooooooom!
its too harrrrrrrrrrrrrd.
can you get dad to do it for me.
Dan CiTi's Destructoid Blog
I hope they open it up to mods UT3 style, but since Valve hates the PS3 I don't think so.
Qraze's Destructoid Blog
that would be killer Dan Citi! the orange box for the ps3 only had a framerate problem that didn't show up very often and lack of support. that wheelman game has frozen on me 5 times in different parts, orange box never froze on me.
Artemus's Destructoid Blog
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Still want the original, too!
vexed alex's Destructoid Blog
@Nanbu

Because Valve is big with mainstream gamers. It's a household name like Infinity Ward, Epic, and Bungie. 'Tard.

@Jimbo's original post

This is good news, though. The only negative I can really see from this is zero support from Valve after the game's release.
The Prodigal Son's Destructoid Blog
As of Sunday, June 21 4:12AM CST, the site only says coming soon for Xbox 360, PC, and PC download. I guess they fixed the typo. I looked at the images in the coming soon section above the RP (rating pending) ESRB logo. I didn't dig too deep into the text, though. I'd be pretty surprised if it came to PS3 at all, let alone in November. Balls...
Gilgi's Destructoid Blog
No L4D Sigma? Balls.

Also, pills.
Pyroph's Destructoid Blog
lol
brainderailment's Destructoid Blog
Yeah, even if it did, it wouldn't be in '09. Either way, I tried L4D on pc and 360 and I didn't really think it was all that great. Maybe if they packed both the first and L4D2 in one box I'd consider it, but then again, I just put a huge video card into my pc.
Naim Master's Destructoid Blog
Can they make it even buggier if it's on the PS3?
