Get Left 4 Dead PC for $14.99 through October 2 photo

The new Left 4 Dead campaign, "Crash Course," is available now for both the Xbox 360 and PC. Xbox 360 owners have to fork over a few MS Points, but PC owners can get the content for free. I know this because without telling me, Steam decided to download it and then was like "What up? Your download is done, bitch. Stop working and let's shoot some zombies."
 
Don't tell my boss.  
 
Anyway, free's a good deal, but if you don't have Left 4 Dead on the PC, that's worthless. So until October 2, Valve is offering the game on steam for 50% off. That's $14.99. Yes, fifteen bucks for Left 4 Dead. We like this game quite a bit, if you haven't heard. It's good. You kill zombies, and you can do it with friends. It's like training for the apocalypse.
 
Also available: Buy four copies of the game for $44.99. Go on -- do it

Some day, in the next few months, when I actually use my PC again I'm going to just get L4D2 and hope all the L4D1 content comes right over free of charge.

Until then, xbox360 it is.

If I would have got it at this price I think I actually would have been perfectly satisfied. Unfortunately I paid $40 for this game about a month after it came out. :( Definitely won't make that same mistake with L4D2.

The game was pretty meh, not paying $10 bucks for it. Plus, I'd much rather wait out the 50% off of the expa... sorry, the sequel LFD2. Not that I'd buy that too, but still...

Wow, that's only half of what I paid this morning for the stupid 360 version of Crash Course.

Er...I only paid half this morning when I could have gotten the full L4D for only twice as much. I'm on a roll for bad comments today.

Hey, British people, that's 4 copies for £30. The 360 version still costs that much in stores. I might get this.

Though with British people always being overcharged it is actually £37.49.

IT SURE IS FUN THINKING IT'S STILL AN EXPANSION HUH? grow up. did you not read the article abotu Valve flying out two of the biggest members of the boycott group, and how they themselves stated that there is enough new content and new tweaks to gameplay to make it feel like a bonafide full release and not a silly expansion?

AWESOME. Thanks Valve. I knew waiting and not paying nasty Microsoft for that DLC was a good idea.

Jesus. I could buy it on PC for only twice what I just paid for the DLC on 360. I really need to win that Alienware laptop...

This and all the wonderful, free TF2 updates just proves that Valve is the most customer-focused game developer/publisher in the business. I only buy PC games via Steam (OK, maybe a few via GOG) because I know they'll be supported. Fuck the boycott.

I still think 360 owners should have gotten the Survival Pack Achievements, but whatever. With the amount I'll be playing this, I'm sure the money will be well worth the time invested. Buying this one as soon as possible.

My only complaint with L4D2 has always been, why aren't the original survivors in the sequel? I love those guys. I'm sure the new team could grow on me, but it's no surrogate for Francis.

I think the new characters in L4D2 look great, and fit the theme better. Sure, nobody will replace Francis ("I hate vampires!"), but I still think the new group could be awesome enough to pull through.
Though I will miss fighting alongside Cortana. :P

I accidentally the whole game.

I can't help but do it when Valve do this with their own games, everything I've bought has been in a reduction.

OH SHIT... Should I get this, or wait for Left 4 Dead 2? God, this is killing me...

Fucking hell finally! Not paying 25 quid for L4D. I'll get it now :]

@randydixon

"all the wonderful, free TF2".....yeah, except they never update it. They need to nerf the pyro, demo and scout, or bolster a sentry/dispenser/engy health and introduce soldier's, engy, demo update and fire proof jacket for spy. h and hats, increase drop rate.

Anyway, LEFT 4 DEAD and all that jazz :)

Crash Course is a lot of fun for me so far. I'm not sure if there's an issue in versus mode with Tanks not spawning except for in the truckyard in the finale. In single player, I saw a ton of them in the course of just one runthrough. In four versus games, I've only seen them during the end of the finale. Weird.
