Sessler’s Soapbox: Left 4 Dead = Left 4 Awesome

This week Adam Sessler returns with his thoughts/review of Valve’s highly anticipated zombie title Left 4 Dead. While he is in rare form this week, meaning that he is not ranting about anything, its is still the same bitingly witty Sessler we have all grown to know and love.
He talks a bit about the cool cinematics and atmosphere of the game, co-op play and a nice little feature that is lacking in a lot of games. Say you need to leave the game for a minute to run to the bathroom but do not want to leave your online friends without backup. You can hit a button which basically turns your character into a bot thus giving your team the fire power it needs while you are doing the Tiijuana quickstep.
While I am excited about Left 4 Dead myself and found his little review nothing more than another reason to get the game, I found that Adam and I have something in common. We both are firm believers in the impending zombie apocalypse, and like Adam suggests, Left4 Dead will be great way for us to hone our skills so that when the undead do rise forth from the grave to feast upon the gooey gray matter lodged in our craniums, we will be well prepared.

I’m looking forward to playing this but I’ll get it on PC because I cant be bothered to wait for the PS3 version, that’s if they do release one.

Still FPS’s are best on the PC anyway
I am getting it for the PC as well Norbit, not only because I am totally excited for it, but also because (GASP!!!) until recently – I have never played a FPS shooter on the PC before which my BF says is just silly of me – therefore I have been cutting my teeth on CoD2 and all I have to say is: FPS on the PC FTW!!!
Why it took me this long to catch on I will never know….
I’m going to probably get it on both PC and 360 for the same reasons I have CoD4 on both PC and 360. 1) PC gaming is just so much better than console gaming, but 2) I can’t leave my friends hangin’ on the console.
u can t leave ur friends hanging on the console but THEY can leave you hanging on the CPU LOLOLOL OWNED THESE ARE REALLY BAD FRIENDS U CARE TOO MUCH ABOUT EM AND THEY DON’T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT YOU.
CPU?
This game isn’t anywhere near release.
And that video player sucks.
I wonder why he has Haze on the screen behind him.
Maybe he got too excited about Left 4 Dead (what a terrible name p.s, reminds me of that terrible movie “Cradle 2 the Grave”) and had to play a piece of shit to bring himself back down.
