Hey guys thanks for your help in advance. I should say that I loved the first MW and I'm enjoying MW2 at my friends house playing him in versus. Now, I also enjoyed L4D (which I don't own) and the new one looks like a major advancement to me. So some things I want you guys to factor in. Which one will be around longer? Which company will update/expand gameplay more often? What game will give me more bang for my buck? Thanks a bunch everyone who contributes :) Please poll and leave a comment!

Left 4 Dead 2 is cheaper, and the money you buy it with will in no part go towards Bobby Kotick. It's also a hell of a lot of fun. Ideally it would have been purchased a few weeks back as part of a four-pack, but hey. Still well worth it.

L4d2 had better mp and its cheaper, its basicly a no brainer. If you did not have l4d then get l4d2 If you want to get mw2 then you have to mainly buy it for the singleplayer. Ask me its better to buy the x360 version for Coop spec ops missions.

Im gonna have to say MWF2. The single player is pretty good as far as I've gotten. The multiplayer is fantastic tho.

1. Depends on what you mean by what will be around longer. If you mean how long till another sequel comes out. It was a surprise when valve announced L4d2 so soon. Theyve never done anything like that before. I would say a its a tie there. If you mean how long will people be playing the game, I would say l4d2 considering the mods and add ons that will be out in no time.

2. Which company will expand the game more? I would say Valve and Activision will both be releasing extra content. However from things I have heard. Activision will be charging money for any expansions that are released for the MW2, while L4d2 will almost definetly be free.

3. Bang for your buck. L4d2 all the way.

I think that both communities will be there for a while but in the long run l4d2 is better because of updates, new maps, maybe new weapons and game modes and mods and custom campaigns from the community will make it worth it. Looks like MW2 pc users will have to pay for the dlc like map packs and new modes if they are introduced, thats why iwnet was created i believe, since there are no mod tools, dedi servers and what not the only way to experience new content is to get it from them. Plus hacks seem to be a problem already and no way to kick them out, and it seems like people are spreading viruses through the game....so i'd would go for L4D2

I'm going to be buying Left 4 Dead 2 next month. Infinity Ward will not get my money with the way they've been treating PC gamers lately, plus, I'm not going to pay that much for a friggin' game. $60 is waaaaaaaaaaaay off.

Left4dead2 FTW!!! I'm not even going to bother to give reasons why it's better. I'll just answer the question. You'll be around L4D2 more because there will be DLC just like for the first one. Plus the AI Director makes each run even more unique it has a higher replay value.

L4D 2, that "was" my problem, before I read the latest "genius" conclusions from Activision. It's not even a contest now and you know the game will get new campaigns (no, I don't care about the Valve ones, I'm talking about the community campaigns which I have no doubt that they'll be way better than Valve did in L4D 2), even more content.
