Again, not too much, just some interesting things. Also, not everything might be available, because we often suck at keeping these in (A.K.A. Employees take them). I can't say I've Pre-ordered a game just for the bonus, but its something to think about.

I grabbed a gs exclusive download for an early demo of Left 4 Dead 2 tonight, and I must say, I'm not too terribly impressed. The demo was about 1.6 MB and took a while to finish (thanks in part to slow internet). I started it up with high hopes; especially upon seeing the menu, which looks rather stylish. I ran through a single player offline game, just to take time to run around, explore, mess around, what have you. I finished with the first chapter, and after attacking as many zombies as possible with a frying pan, closed the safe room door.

I started the second chapter, with one push the button, horde, continue series. Then after I got to the safe room, it was game over. I felt rather upset at the length. I know the shorter chapters are supposed to be more enticing, but this was just not enough time for me. Granted, the new weapons (I especially enjoyed guitar smashing on zombie face) are really cool, and with some interesting other pick ups (defibrillator, adrenaline, boomer bile in a can) there is a whole new aspect to this game. I still feel slightly jaded at what I saw. Very strange physics of jumping zombies not withstanding. I know I'll still grab it, but the demo actually deflated some of my hopes. Those of you that have played it, what say you?
