    Left 4 Dead 2 Delivers the Goods

    During last week's E3 show staff writer Bawdyjane got to check out Valve's upcoming shooter sequel Left 4 Dead 2. Read below for some game info and her impressions of the game:
    The Total Gaming Network headed up to Valve’s private room at E3 to get some hands-on time with their upcoming title Left 4 Dead 2. After hearing the announcement of the new title on Monday at the Microsoft Press Conference, we couldn’t wait to learn more about the game and play a level from one of the new campaigns.

    Left 4 Dead 2 takes place in the South about one week after the events of the original Left 4 Dead. My initial impression of the game after playing a level from “The Parish” is that the game feels like an expansion pack to the original. Returning players will instantly be able to dive into the game; however, developers at Valve seem to have a few tricks up their sleeve to keep the gameplay fresh and original in the sequel and plan to keep supporting new content for the original title.

    I have my doubts, but we'll see how it turns out soon enough.

      I guess this explains why they have been assing around with getting a decent SDK out for L4D... Why let the community make it for free when you can charge them for it eh?

        Why does this smell similar to the work of another company we all know..... X-|.

        Secondly, if more content was out for the original than currently is, then it there would probably be a higher chance that people wouldn't be so negative about L4D2.

        Not to mention they said that soon after the release of the "Authoring Tools Beta" that they'd have what they call the "SDK" for L4D (It's only partial) out and ready to go.

          I think that they looked back on L4D and were like "Damn. We can't make this last." So they just decided to do it all over, but make it slightly different so that it would be conducive to DLC's on down the road.

            It looks OK, but I would really like to see some more guns.
