Also...his reviews seem slanted based on whether he enjoyed the game or not. I know all reviews are subjective, but as an example CoD4 got an 8 for graphics, but Left for Dead got a 9.5? CoD4 graphics blow away anything I've seen on Left for Dead...

Bah it sucks I haven't gotten my parts back yet, otherwise I'd be all over this. Few buddies got it on Steam when it first came out, they love it and they're PO'd because they can't find anyone to play a decent game with, thus they're waiting for me :P
Thanks for the review, just further solidifies everything I've heard.

It's an unfinished game, and we who bought it are beta testers. Not enough content for $50. That's pretty much it. I doubt we'll see $50 worth of content for years given valve's snail pace of releasing content for already released and purchased games.

Yea I agree about time they updated it added new characters and maps. Its a great game concept but as said it costs $50 and right now there is not $50's worth of game to play there.

At least with TF2 there were masses of modded maps to play in quite soon after release to keep it fun.

Wow ...

L4D hasn't been out that long and people are whining?

It took TF2 QUITE a long time before updates rolled out.. have to be patient.

TF2 didn't cost $50. It was part of orange box with portal, HL2, ep1 and ep2. It was a bargain for that price. L4D is $50 by itself...
