Are there any 360 users with money left? I don't think I've ever seen a console with so many AAA titles released in such a short window of time. Maybe the Dreamcast over the first 2 months. Maybe.

I do only because I've had this game on pre-order since you could pre-order it.

the reviews makes it sound really short and skimpy on the content which makes me wonder why there charging full price on this game which essentially feels like a mod or addon. with how much you got for 60 bucks out of orange box this feels like a rip off to me. 

also the demo while fun for a bit got really repetitive really quickly.

I was asking myself the same thing. I have no money left, I promised I would stop after banjo, but considering the reviews, the videos I have seen and the comments from the people about this game, seems to me I must have Left4dead.

Honestly, I ran out after Fable, and then traded for Fallout. I then had to resort to a discount (and by that, I mean gamble with friends) for Gears, and now I'm broke until Christmas.

And I still need to get Mirror's Edge, Rock Band 2, and this.

have you ever played Counter-Strike? I wouldn't think you had if you don't get why it's full price. Counter-Strike didn't have tons of maps and stuff, but the replayability is HUGE!!! That's what this game is all about. And if the scores are any indication this game succeeded. Plus, all they need to do to add a bit more is make some new maps in DLC. I already have this game TOTALLY paid off and can't wait! Replayability to the max!!!

No joke! I had to talk my wife into letting me get the game because I have already bought a few other ones that were musts for me (Gears 2, NHL 09, NBA 2K9, Madden 09, and Fable 2). Just glad she likes me enough to let me get 'em!!!  :P  haha!

i have played counterstrike and when it came out it originally it was free the original counter strike and in a way it was free if you think of it as a bonus in half life2 at least in the begining. but replayability may only apply to a few people not all and you should be charged for content not the supposed replayability of a game.

by that line of reasoning scrabble and monopoly should cost 60 dollars because of how replayable they are. the price of a game should reflect the amount of work put into it. its essential a mod the engine 4 years old too and its short and the engines old and theres not a lot of content they really are being unfair with the starting price of the game its ridiculous and i think reviewers should take that into account when reviewing it.

I'm not surprised. Despite the naysayers, Left 4 Dead is really THAT good.

Yeah, I was hoping for a midnight release, considering this game did get quite some hype. Perhaps, not enough to warrant a midnight release. I wanted to play it tonight! :P

The game is just amazing, played it for about 3 hours now and its just awesome! The endings to some of the movies/levels are just intense as hell. Everyone needs to give this game a try with friends :D

If you are playing it on Advanced or Expert, be warned... the end parts are pretty tough hehe.

The outdoor maps are crazy!!!

I tried the demo. I really wanted to like this game, it's very different and I love the survial shooter concept. But the controls are terrible, it plays and looks like a ****y PC game made in 2003. Feels dated. Too bad.

Regardless of what some people are saying about the length or graphics or whatever. The bottom line is this game is good, and fun. Very dynamic AI can really come down hard on unprepared survivors. My crew made it til the end of Death Toll, barely. We were fully stocked and ready to survive the final onslaught...

Tank and zombies were ripping up two of our team members, smoker dragged one guy off into the woods with his tongue, and a boomer puked on me and while i was blind I fell off the roof into a zombie onslaught; and all of these things happend at the same time so we were owned. It was a beautiful thing to behold although we failed and hard to start from the last checkpoint. Got to respect a challenge like that, none of which was scripted because the game changes everytime you play it.
