Similar to the happy ending found in Trading Places, so too will the lowly Xbox LIVE Silver members wanting to play the Left 4 Dead 2 demo get their happy ending today.
A week delay is a kick in the groin, but at least with another week until the game's street date it's not a total waste of an otherwise fine demo. With all of the talk of pre-loading and what have you, most of what can be said about it has been said already. Damn you, Razak!
Also, for those who care, and I honestly don't know why you wouldn't, the Wikipedia entry on Trading Places has an absurdly in-depth explanation for Winthorpe and Valentine's scheme to get revenge on the Dukes. It's legit. Who knew?
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Pretty much a waste of 1GB of 360 HDD space, since the PC version's so much better.
And why is that?
Plus the TF2 hat. People are actually buying the game JUST for that hat. Crazy.
I rarely play on line, prefer split screen.
Me too..I dunno what is up with that. I thought it was my internet, but I went to a friend's house and he has fiber optic internet and it STILL was laggy for the L4D2 demo. I really, really hope they smooth this out before it comes out, as it is probably the last game I'm getting this year and I'm super excited.
Don't crush my hopes and dreams, valve!
