news 28 Posted January 26, 2009 Hello, We've just posted our latest review and would love it if you linked to it. Thanks greatly! "It's the multiplayer where L4D shines. You can either play co-op with three other players through the main campaigns (films), or you can play an exceptionally fun mode called 'Versus' whereby eight players are split into two teams; one team are the survivors, one are the Infected. The survivors are just like in the main story, but playing as the infected is coller. You can play as a 'Hunter', an infected that leap and pin humans before shredding them, 'Smokers', who use extended tongues to grab humans and pull them away from the safety of the group or 'Boomers', who are giant infected that vomit bile on humans which attracts all Infected in the nearby area, something that can severely cripple the survivor team. But finally, you can play as the 'Tank'. This is a hugely powerful muscled infected that can rip chunks out of the ground and hurl them. The game is pretty flawless in terms of bugs, however you do need a pretty decent rig to get the most out of it and when the zombies arrive you will soon know if your PC can cope. Having lots of RAM (2GB minimum) is also recommended. Sadly the fun in single player is short lived and is really only good for learning your way around maps, the weapons and how to play the game. The real selling point of the game is online multiplayer. If you like playing scary first-person shooters, L4D is be a blast. If you prefer a more intellectual gaming experience carried along by an intriguing storyline, stay well away." http://www.itreviewed.co.uk/rev.php?id=886 _____ Christian Harris Founder & Editor, ITreviewed.co.uk (formerly BIOS) info ( -at -) itreviewed.co.uk _____ Share this post Link to post
