New Left 4 Dead shots

Valve shooter turns heads at EA's London event
One of the surprise stars of EA's London showcase event this afternoon is Valve's Zombie shooter Left 4 Dead, which is looking like an absolute blast on PC and 360.

This preview will tell you more, but Valve's multiplayer shooter basically pits you and three mates against the undead hordes - though it's not quite as simple as it sounds.

Our man on the floor won't shut up about how awesome the Counterstrike-meets-28 Day later shooter is to play, so we're starting to think we should all be looking out for Left 4 Dead.

A sure contender for Zombie game of the year? Find out at the end of this year.

Looks really great. Can't wait to play with through with my mates.

Find out if it's the best zombie shooter at the end of the year? I do hope you're not implying this'll be that late coming. I'm expecting it... September time.

Cant wait, this is a huge exclusive for the 360, if it plays anything like counter strike it will be AWESOME.

Looks great and should be a blast when playing through with your mates. Errm by the way since when is this exclusive for xbox? Its coming out on pc aswell, which im definitely getting it for.

Gutter that it's not coming to PS3.

I sooooo want this game. Really looking forward to this one, I pray it really is as good as it promises to be.

Please valve, please make it awesome.

PC gaming is a completely different market to console gaming. Its an exclusive to the extent that the 360 is the only games console getting it.

Please stop cozying up to EA, Valve. Find someone else to publish; they're obviously just trying to smarm-charm their way into your pants and once they get that ring on your finger, good luck getting a divorce!

Stay AWAY from EA!

Shame really, it looks good!

I remember Valve saying they woudn't work with PS3 after the HL2 conversion

Surprise stars wtf!!!! This is one of the most anticipated games of the year.

You been under a rock or something CVG.

good thing its not comin to the ps3 after that terrible half life port, ps3 doesnt need anymore crappy ports plus there's plenty of 1st person shooters comin out for the console.

i suggest ps3 owners just buy the PC version, or buy a damn 360, they're as cheap as cornflakes these days

Yer talkin out yer bottom mate!After the patch they brought out the ps3 version of the game was fine.As for left for dead it's jut a timed exclusive.The dude who is making it said if there was demand for it then they would consider it.

As great as this game looks I just dont know if I have time for another online game. I already have Crysis, Team fortress 2, Unreal 3 and getting GTA 4 next week. Theres just not enough hours in the day to get my head around another one

Maybe when Im bored of the others
runadumb on 26 Apr '08

Valve Very Happy

I love those farmer's field shots!
fleeties on 26 Apr '08
This has been my most anticipated game of the last 6 months. I have complete faith in Valve, and I can't wait to take a week off from work to LAN this to .. well.. un-death Smile

I'm looking forward to GTA IV, Spore, and a few others, but a truly epic zombie shooter? Yeah, baby!

Any news on split screen co-op for 360?

doggydog on 27 Apr '08
Amazing! I've been waiting for this game for SO long, and now it looks better than ever.
It's gonna be great. Very Happy

Looks pretty crap so far, i was hoping for non-urban settings like hanging out in a farm house with zombies crawling over fields and ditches.And did i see a n1gger in a screenshot?There are no ******s on the internet and ******s dont play games, so who wants to play as a n1gger anyway?
Ulfus on 3 May '08
What could possibly be better than holding off a horde of zombies with your friends! This is going to rock, hard.

you should really go to a non urban setting, like the north pole, and play with the nice white polar bears. They are ever so friendly .. they would even let you put your head in their mouths and stuff.
