So a few weeks ago while knocking back some Dos Equis Amber – my homeboy J Rod threw in this game – a zombie killing game called Left 4 Dead…..
SO I’m thinking…”Ok. another survival game. Kinda like Resident Evil and the other knock-offs…” Right?
WRONG.
I peeped the opening credits….
.
WOW!! Soon as we started playing I was instantly hooked like a junkie! Best way to describe this game??
video game CRACK-COCAINE!
L4D plays less like a Game and more like being in an actual MOVIE. Your characters must make it thru different movie-type scenarios – fighting to survive thru SWARMS of zombie hordes – and make it to the rescue at the end of each scenario/movie!
The real star of this game is the Director AI. The AI will adjust each ‘scene’ like an actual movie director – throwing different situations at random based on your movements and gameplay!
And the 4 characters constantly chatter and interact based on the current situation and adrenaline levels.
A nervous person will chatter non-stop and worry. A hurting person will complain that they need help.Low on ammo? Your guys will let you know! That, plus the insane score gives you the chills!
