Left 4 Dead is a multiplayer cooperative survival horror shooter in development by Valve Corporation based on the Source engine. There are two sides, the Survivors and Infected. Four players control the four Survivors, working their way through campaigns in rural and urban areas, fighting off dozens of the AI-controlled "infected" (fast, 28 Days Later style zombies). On top of the regular zombies, there are four player-controlled "boss zombies" all with unique powers for causing chaos. This mix of the dozens of AI-controlled infected zombies and the boss zombies makes for an entirely fresh co-op experience. Release is scheduled for the PC and Xbox 360 on November 18, 2008 in the U.S. and November 21, 2008 in Europe.[1]



Gameplay Footage
Spoiler for:


Game Modes
Spoiler for:
SINGLE PLAYER
For those without an internet connection, make your way through the campaigns alongside three AI-controlled Survivor bots. Also recommended for those that like to give people headaches by team killing.

CAMPAIGN
Work together to survive the zombie apocalypse. You and three friends (or strangers) hook up online through Steam or Xbox Live and take the roles of four Survivors battling against the Infected horde and AI-controlled boss zombies. This is pure survival on four different difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, Advanced, and Expert.

Campaign mode is the ultimate co-op experience for anybody.

VERSUS
Versus mode is a completely different beast. This mode is aimed at those thirsty for human vs human competition. Four human players play as the Survivors and face off against four human players playing the boss infected. The boss infected players spawn 20 seconds after they are killed in combat, being able to choose their spawn location by walking around as a ghost until they find the perfect ambush spot. This quick spawn time makes Versus mode absolutely brutal to the Survivor team. On top of that, the only place where Survivors are able to respawn is at the next map.

Just like campaign mode, you choose a specific campaign to play through. The first team plays as the Survivors through the first map until they reach the end or until they all die off. The two teams switch spots, so the former Survivors are now acting as the boss infected and the former boss infected are now playing as the Survivors. After the map is completed, scores are tallied based on various factors and the cycle repeats on the next map in the campaign. This continues all the way until the finale map is completed for both sides, at which point the final score is shown and a victor declared.

Versus mode is currently the only mode where human players can choose to play as the boss infected.[1]

Mods?
Spoiler for:
What updates are planned for after release, and will the community be able to mod it? - From Valve's Michael Booth in an interview with Firingsquad.com:

We already have ideas for additional missions, features, and content that we hope to ship in future releases/updates to Left 4 Dead. In addition, an L4D-specific update will be made to the Source SDK so members of the community can make their own missions, characters, and L4D MOD content.

YES, MODS

oh my god, I have work for another 2 hours and the game was just released. I want to leave now but I can't ;-;

ok, just got my first hands-on of the game and wow it's awesome.
the matchmaker is kinda crappy and I hope they get rid of it or fix it or something but other than that the game is great.

I'll have to play more to work up an actual review with complete thoughts, but...

The game was so good I totally forgot I had chinese food sitting next to me.

my favorite moment in the game so far is when a boomer crashed through a door, and I opened voice chat and went "OH YEAAAAAAAAH!"

So are they going to come out with mods for this that change the zombies back to living people?  Also, it would be great to have a mod for this in a school shooter version.  Boomers = fat guys puking on you, there are the muscled jock users, normal people just running at (or from) you to stop you.  I think it would be fun as shit.
