Left 4 Dead 2 is one of those games that doesn't come around very often. A great coming together of various game modes that has created a film-like multiplayer experience that focuses more on teamwork than of the one-man army. In the day where other shooters are trying to add some type of team-work element to their basic game modes, the Left 4 Dead series takes small team games to the next level of intensity. Of course there are glitches, as in any game, but since the game is so based on high-important single-action moves (i.e. "setting up"), exploits and griefing can be frustrating during an hour-long game. But there are so my options, can just go play campaign on expert, maybe add realism, play friends-only games, do scavenge or survival. There are many options, and if you can avoid the griefers, the Left 4 Dead series is one of the best games. I can't wait for L4D3, but that's another matter. Ending, if you don't have this game, get it. It's worth the bones. (Update: Back 4 Blood came out, it's not L4D3, guess I'm back to waiting.)

Over 7000 hours. I thought my 1500 and 1500 in l4d1 and 2 were crazy.

Definitely my favorite game for replayablity, it just never gets old

All is true, so said the almighty Bizzy. Greatest team game ever. I still hate indoloc with a passion tho. Bizzy! You are the coolest.

B4B should've been the next L4D3, oh well

There was an L4D3 announced and demonstrated at the last E3, and it was supposed to be out this past fall. Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans.
