    Steam version is just silly money, works out to be about £15 more than Amazon, and you only get it a few days earlier.

    Have just pre-ordered from Amazon instead of Steam for just under £20

    all he does in that video is crouch and punch. Thats so boring. Doesnt even look like hes getting hit when the zombies are striking him cause hes crouched. I hope that is a bug and is fixed.

    Bored.

    It may just be me but the full version feels a little more difficult than the demo ?.

    Re: Left 4 Dead

    had a game with 3 others last night all using voice communication. Playing on advanced - most fun I'd had in a video game in years.

    Team work
    Shocks
    Frantic action
    Brilliant, just brilliant.

    One moment for example. We're near the safe room, the other 3 are inside screaming to me 'get inside, get inside!' I'm fending off a massive horde, I'm knocked to the ground and firing with my pistols. One says 'leave him, close the door' the other two run out guns blazing and save my sorry ass. Get me back on my feet and we leg it to the safe room, door closes *phew*

    yeah - some servers are getting better - most seem to be european and pretty slow.
    i think it will start improving shortly - or at least i hope it will!
    it's just such good fun, get more enjoyment out of left4dead than i do from almost all of my other games!

    Re: Left 4 Dead

    I had my first game last night and that was fine, I think it's just temporary issues as every plays for the first time, potentialy not enough servers up and games are over subscribed at the mo?
