i'm playing cod5 right now, while its good, it'll wear out like cod4 did, but probably quicker if you played 4. not many new perks or gun attachments/updgrades. its solid, but no surprises. l4d would be completely new and fresh, so ..ya.

True, but COD is proven to be a great game in Multiplayer, L4D has not. The new revive perk has everyone running around trying to heal their teammates makes the MP harder in COD, World at War also has Multiplayer vehicles, and I've been playing COD4 for about a Year and it hasn't worn off yet I still love playing it.

thats what i'm thinking, its solid but there's not enough new stuff to keep it fresh. They really should have had more gun upgrades/attachments and better perks, probably 50% are copied from cod4. And the sniping aspect is pretty lame when you have to kill 25 enemies WITHOUT a scope just to get the scope attachment..:?

As much as I like the World at War beta, Id say go with Left for Dead. Its different, and looks like it will be scary/fun/exhilarating to just have 3 other people with you against tons of zombies! That will be a true co op experience where you and your folks HAVE to have each others backs... makes you play together. Sounds good to me! Just get World at War later...

Since everybody else has covered the problems with COD: WAW, I'll keep it simple and say Left 4 Dead without a doubt. And to the guy who said COD has already proved itself, not only did COD3 suck (also by Treyarch) but L4D is being made by Valve. Proof enough for me.

I disagree about the sniper comment. It might be harder to use when the other team is rushing or depending on where you are at in the maps, but the sniper is actually powerful. I been able to get a lot of 1 hit kills with it with and I found the aiming is as easy as cod4.

- COD4 has glicthing, either way isn't that what a Beta is for; to fix it?

Anyway, COD5.

Left 4 Dead will be left for dead by me.

Left 4 Dead will be left for dead by me.



- no way of telling where they are, almost a 1 hit kill, take damage even if you stab them

- sniping isnt always 1 hit kill even with stopping power, if you snipe with anything other than Springfield you have to earn the sniper scope which is stupid.

- glitching under the map was in cod4 on Ambush, but rarely used. Almost every match in beta on 'that level' has at least 1 glitcher, i even faced a team with 3 out of 6 under the map. Stupid.

This is easy, Left 4 Dead. The game is made by Valve and it has Zombies... I mean seriously a no-brainer!

definitely Left for Dead, cod: WAW's real name should be Cod 3.5, the beta is boring and it has extreme balancing issues that it needs to sort out, if your coming from cod3 then maybe but from cod4 you'll feel like youve bought the same game, but a worse version of it.

Whens the last time you played a Valve Multi-player centric FPS that wasn't awesome?

Everyone will tell you to get L4D but the truth be told no one will be online playing it because everyone will be playing COD:WAW, if not that they'll still be playing COD 4. L4D will come out and everyone will be excited for it then it will fade away because it doesn't look like it has that lasting appeal, and I really want to play L4D I'll be renting it for sure. Get the game you know everyone will be playing plan and simple if more of your friends are getting L4D get that if they are getting COD:WAW get it, that is if you enjoy playing with you friends

Or he should just get the better of the two games. Left 4 Dead. In fact, COD WAW would be the last fps on my list this year.

As much as I think Left 4 Dead is going to be a truly weak game, it's going to be at least as good as DoD and TF2...and in that case, it will be a better game than COD5.

Oh, sir. There is Zombie intensity all over Valve games. I'm not even sure why L4D exists. There are so many BA mods out for Source games right now it's not even funny.

L4D...no contest its original and its made by valve.

COD5 is a blant rehash of COD4...but because COD4 has propelled the series to Halo level fame,they'll make a lot of money off of COD5.

I actually hope a lot of people don't rush to this game.
If this has the same type of community as TFII on the 360, it'll be alright in my books.
Keep all the jackasses away, KTHNX.

If anything, WaW and every-other game getting released in November will be getting looked over by GearsII.
WaW actually releases so close to GearsII, that it will probably lose a lot of potential sales. At least L4D was pushed more towards the end of the month. :P

And, CoD:WaW isn't a bad game, but it really isn't that great either.
Maybe I'd think different with the retail version, but I just don't really like a whole lot from the beta.
For one, they only really let you play on one good map.

I'll get to try it anyways, though.
My brother is persistent on getting it lol.

I'd suggest L4D.
I'm really not alone, it looks like. =O

Every Single Zombie Mod sucks, that's why Left 4 Dead is being made.

It depends are you talking about L4D on the PC or 360. If PC then get L4D if its for the 360 (which is what it looks like) I would go for CoD:5

L4D.

i'm in the COD5 beta, have been from the start. the new maps are nice, and so are some of the minor changes - but if you own COD4 the choice is clear as say - L4D!.

Because it's roughly a re-skinned CoD4?

Which is roughly a re-skinned CoD2.

thats what i'm thinking, its solid but there's not enough new stuff to keep it fresh. They really should have had more gun upgrades/attachments and better perks, probably 50% are copied from cod4.

Ya, I've played 23 days of COD 4 multiplayer, but I am finding myself hating those exact same things you mentioned. I'll still pick it up eventually, but L4D and Gears just look like more fun ATM.
