got the demo yesterday, as usual for source based games the graphics are outstanding, this is a scary game, the zombies run towards you and keep running with the momentum even as you take there heads off, they smash through walls and doors, and run full pelt towards you, more like the infected from 28 days/weeks later movies.
its great to play coop with a few buddies, and some real funny/scary moments. give it a try, demo is available on steam right now.
Don’t like scary, I’m a bit of a wuss when it comes to stuff like that.
I didn’t even leave the first room in Doom3. :o
Sat there in the dark, spawned, had a look around the room, heard the ambient sounds and thought…I don’t fancy this…time to get back to WWII :o
I’m the same, it took me a year to complete Half Life 2, primarily because of the “We don’t go to Ravenholm” level which I think took me over a month to do because I kept leaving it. In the end I had to turn the sound down… :o
yeh that was a good part of half life 2, i remember playing DOOM 2, some of the sound affects on there really freaked me out, creeping around with eerie music, babies crying and goats bleating.
If you want any coop buddy, I’m volunteering repent.
Just tell me whenever you want to.
And btw about scary stuff: well, I dont fancy scare the most, but its very entertaining if it has a good story and atmosphere.
I have all the HL games, but Ravenholm is still the map I always don’t look forward to…
I think Doom 3, Bio Shock and Fear are awesome scary games. Doom reminds me of the movie Alien which I love 
I DL left for dead today cant wait to try it.
Alien 1 and 2, good ones. Pity the rest deteriorates the overall reputation of the title.
I want to try BioShock, sounds awesome.
Osprey, as with repent, I’ll be glad to play coop anytime.
Anyone up for some Left4Dead coop today?
Available from 13.00 GMT and on.
Well, not a game for me by the sound of it.
I remember half life (the first one which is an old game by todays standard) when I first smashed a ventilation drum and started crawling through it with the torch-light. I really can not describe how I felt when the crab things came towards me. But it was something like :eek::eek::eek:
:o
I have Bioshock… not a fan of the game, VERY repetitive and there is no “worry” about getting killed because you just spawn in again round the corner at the last clone thingy… just that one small thing ruined it a bit.
This Left4Dead looks fun! Best played in a dark room with the sound up?
Thats how I played Doom3 Monitor was the only light source in the room, jeebus that made me jump a few times. Same for FEAR.
Yeh we all get scared the first time we find that little headcrabby down the hole in the vent LOL.:roflmao:
Sad to hear if Bioshock is really like you say Insight…
But you gotta love Left4Dead. Played it first time now, man. Its…cant describe the effects. Its just like in 28 days later, blood effects, physics, the behaviour of zombies, they aren’t clipping. There’s even different moves and animations depending where you hit, how much you hit, rate of fire hit and so on! :eek:
And they are running towards you! When you get a horde of zombies running after you, you pretty much wanna run yourself lol!
lol. Didn`t see this post.
Yea, Left4dead is very good.
Anyone for a CO OP?
that little headcrabby down the hole
I’ve had that. Dettol.

Bought the game today!:w00t:
Who’s up for a coop?
Anyone have time to coop this evening?
e.g 1800 GMT?
lol:o
Anyone interested in playing L4D this Friday?
AI teammates are boring.
I was online on Wednesday evening, think you’d left a couple of hours earlier according to Steam.
Surely you’ve tried playing with other people and not just relying on the AI?
Most people seem ok and work as a team, though I’ve seen an influx of new players recently. You can spot them because the acheivements they’re picking up as well as not having a scooby of where to go.
May get some time over the weekend, depending on RL.
I have played a lot online yes, but again its with guys who come and go, none who I know. Its more fun when you play with someone you at least know more than first time seen on a server.
I wont say I’m a pro, only 20 achievements or so, but I like to take the game slowly and have more teamwork than maybe needed, so its not many who I can play with who is in that very class. Most have a semi-teamwork and a few are very good team workers. But usually its just run n’ gun as fast as you can lol.
I hope somebody here have time to play it slowly, with good teamwork, instead of going for the most kills or fast paced action (I am usually the one with lowest score…because I always watch everyone’s back and protect them!:roflmao:)
