I was looking through my latest copy of the Official Xbox Magazine (March 2008) and found some good information contained within its pages concerning Left 4 Dead. Let's break it down by using a list!
- The Xbox 360 port is being handled by Certain Affinity, handling elements specific to the 360 version (matchmaking, Live support, etc.)
- Valve and TRS are handling the core game
- The 360 version is currently just too hard for anyone to play. The baddies were so overpowered that the humans stood virtually no chance against them.
- 4 on 4 matches are promised for Xbox Live or through the use of System Link
- Split-screen multiplayer is being attempted but 4-player split-screen may not be possible.
- You can play a solo game with AI controlled human teammates.
