#
New from Valve ? creators of Counter-Strike, Half-Life and more ? Left 4 Dead
#
is a new game for the PC and Xbox 360 that casts up to four "Survivors" in an
#
epic struggle against hordes of swarming zombies and terrifying "Boss
#
Infected" mutants.
#
#
Set in the immediate aftermath of the long-awaited zombie apocalypse, L4D's
#
survival co-op game mode is played out across four sprawling "Movies" set in
#
a variety of urban and rural environments. Each "Movie" has an over-riding
#
team objective, is comprised of five large maps, and may be played by 1 to
#
4 human players.
#
#
New technology dubbed "the AI Director" is used to procedurally generate a
#
unique experience each time the game is played. Just as in Hollywood films,
#
the Director calls for new monsters, sounds, and action as it tailors the
#
gameplay experience based upon the team's performance.
#
Left 4 Dead is a multiplayer co-operative survival horror first-person
#
shooter
#
game by Valve Corporation. The game uses the Source game engine, and is
#
available for Windows-based personal computers and the Xbox 360.
#
==============================================================================
#
Left 4 Dead puts four human playable or AI controlled survivors of an
#
apocalyptic pandemic against hordes of aggressive "Infected" zombies in a
#
cinematic backdrop in which the players "star" as each character in a
#
fictional movie. The Survivors' goal is to help each other make it through
#
various scenarios to safety. The Infected are controlled by an AI that
#
dynamically balances difficulty and mood depending on the players' progress
#
and situation. In an alternate game mode, human players can control up to
#
four different monsters with special abilities and cooperate to stop the
#
Survivor players.
#
#
It was released on November 18, 2008 in the United States and November 21,
#
2008 in Europe to coincide with the tenth anniversary of the release of
#
Half-Life. A five-minute trailer was released on Halloween. A
#
public demo was released on November 6 for pre-purchasers and was released
#
for the general public on November 11 for both systems. The demo contains
#
the first two out of five maps of the "No Mercy" campaign and is playable
#
in both single player and multi-player. Left 4 Dead went gold on
#
November 13, 2008.
