Steam realeased a new survival game today called Alien Swarm, and can resemble Left 4 Dead's survival element, besides the fact that it's third person view and involves aliens rather zombies... O.o

Anyways, I've been playing the game and it's pretty fun and entertaining. It is strongly teamwork based (aren't all survior games?), with 4 different specialties to choose from (medic, tech, special weapons, and officer). Medic, of course, heals, tech does the computer stuff and is the essential person, special weapons is all out guns and damage, and the officer is sorta like the soldier of the group. On top of all that, you have upgradable weapons and armor. In each level, the tech is the one your gonna have to keep an eye on in all the levels. He is needed to complete each level. If he dies, it's game over for the entire group.

I've only been playing this game for a couple hours, but I can tell you that it's a really fun game to play with your friends or with people in general. AND the best part is that it's FREE. That's right, FREE. No more, no less. The game will probably get frustrating at some parts, so that's when the teamwork element comes inSo gather some friends and start playing. Just remember not to shoot each other and not to die a lot. Happy hunting!;)

Until next time,
