Demo Review- Left 4 Dead

I must say, Im quite impressed, not amazed its not one of those ground breaking games but its good. As a demo it does what its ment to do, give you a snipit of the game, snipit not 3 hours of game play and not 3 seconds of game play *Coughironmandemo*.

The first thing I did was get surrounded by 80000000 zombies the very second i started because one of my freinds invited me into a game as soon as it finished downloading so that was a thrill ride of zombie corpses.

Now on to the features

As a FPS fan i genrall have a good idea of what FPSs controls should be like (some thing like Halo's in short)
Right Trigger: fire your boom stick!
Left Trigger: alternate attack/grenades
A: jump
X: Pick Shit up
and there you go Left 4 Dead sticks true to this scheme witch so many of us are used to.
Also the co-op was really fun especaily if you play it with people you know, rather than some guy you met online or worse AI. Its like really being up to your teeth in zombies but you have 3 of you best mates and more guns than the national guard to get you through the piss easy levels.
What makes it piss easy is that holding down fire will garantee you success apart from when fighting that bigass thing in the train or the witch, there no real chalenge in killing the zombies the die in like 5 bullets from the uzi but who cares, my gamerzone is recreation, and its description says somthing about all that matters is having fun, witch is exactly what I did.
