Left 4 Dead vs. Left 4 Dead 2

So I've been playing Left 4 Dead 2 this past week and I'm really enjoying it, but the characters aren't as cool as the first and the levels don't seem quite as scary or detailed. But the 2nd has way more weapons and the new special infected are awesome... which do you think is the ultimate zombie apocalypse experience?

Yeah the new game is good, the additional weapons, especially, melee are great. I wish they included themaps of the first game. Blood Harvest is my favourire, nothing beats surviving the farm house at the end, lots of fun. If they make it free DLC I will be happy.

I never thought either left 4 dead or left 4 dead 2 were scary they had an eerie mood to them but thats all but imo left 4 dead 2 is so much better the environments are just so much better. The new characters are like you said not as good as the originals but theyre still lovable. and the music has more of a variety to it.

I love Left 4 Dead 2.

Pros

Campaign maps are better

Maps are more open instead of the narrow maps in L4D

Melee Weapons

New Special Infected

More Zombies on screen

New Guns

Totally random on the weapon spawns (dont have to start out with regular uzi or shotty)

Cons

L4D2 characters are good, but not great as the original cast.
