Well it was inevitable.

The 1st hasn't even been out a year yet. THIS IS TOTALLY WEIRD..........anyways they will HAVE to change the box art for the UK. Because thats SWEARING IN THE UK!

Wow...How does it take Valve 1 year to make a new left 4 dead, but three to make a Half Life Two Episode 3???

Well a sequel this fast is understandable...you dont really need to change the formula that much for L4D

I don't know if I really like the look of the new team. Other then that the game seems rad.

So there's Nick, the guy in a flashy suit; Ellis, the mechanic; Rochelle, the girl; and Coach, the big guy.(Or as I like to call him, Uncle Phil)

Yay!

So where did episode 3 go, and why did I pay 50$ for 4 levels?  I guess I wrongly assumed L4D was going to get the same treatment TF2 got and am paying for it.

This is totally unlike valve. It's weird.

Woo hopefully more than 4 levels this time

I'm pretty sure this will be the first video-game to have more then 1 black person in a lead role.

Oh man. I hate that they're making this a standalone title rather than a DLC pack or something, it's very out of character for Valve. Still a must buy, however.

Good luck having that stand out next to the first one on store shelves. The cover is way too similar.

It is just way to soon for there to be a Left 4 Dead sequel. I mean, I was hoping Left 4 Dead would be similar in terms of Team Fortress 2 with updates being released on a semi-regular basis. This better not be a sign of Valve going down a dark and dangerous path.

Not happy. Not happy at all.

I thought that they would update L4D like TF2, guess I was wrong. Oh well, at least L4D2 looks pretty good.

You guys whining about Ep3 and other games not announced by Valve realize that L4D2 was announced in a MS event and not a Valve or EA event... right? I mean, you arent THAT stupid are you? Are you?

The game is not out yet, guys... it could be a while before this is released. And the trailer was pretty badass.

They need to announce something great for this to get me to pay full price. L4D is great but there is not enough content to be putting down another $60. They're doing 5 campaigns this time but only with 4 chapters each. So were getting the same amount of content as the first. What happened to Valve supporting the game after release? Seems like all were getting is the survival pack, which should have been included on the retail release to begin with.

The trailer says November 17th, its out in 5 months...

Putting up two fingers like that is offensive in the UK - it's like giving the middle finger right at the end of their trailer. Fucking awesome.

Edit: I also doubt this is the only valve stuff we'll see this E3. I haven't even seen Gabe clad in his favourite food-stained T-shirt yet. This was just a short trailer.

To soon, they should have stuck with new dlc for L4D not made a sequel. Hopefully it will have more content. I do feel slightly ripped off for paying full price for L4D.

It's a new Left 4 Dead... Why am I unhappy?
Probably because it just doesn't look as good. None of the characters seem really interesting (not like the first L4D, anyway) and the whole "use a chainsaw and frying pan as weapons" thing seems more than a little cliched, and definitely goofy.
It's a Valve game, so it's going to be awesome, but I guess the real question is: Will it be better than the first Left 4 Dead?

In addition to that, it seems far too early to releasing a full sequel. I would much rather see an expansion. It's a great game with a lot of replayability, and creating new levels/weapons would only add more content to an already fantastic game.

Why not release an expansion instead? This game better have loads of content because the first one got stale relatively quickly IMO.

Looks sweet, but it just feels a tad too soon....ahwell.

Can't wait, but a week after Modern Warfare 2...............THAT is Insane.

Bloody Valve. 

I suppose I should not be surprised they can't keep to donig what they said they would... it is Valve...

This isn't Valve's style at all.

Hmm, I think they need to make it more open ended.
I'm also not sure if this is worth the price of a full box, no matter how much fun the co-op is. There just wasn't enough to play, I wanna blow up zombies all day, not just an afternoon.

Ok I payed for discounted L4D on steam, like 3 weeks ago, so I'm only a little angry it's stand-alone. However, I hope they do realize we still have 4 campaigns, and that I've played 'em all A LOT....

This is way too soon. I'll probably pass. L4D didn't have that much lasting appeal to me.

Hell to the yes.  I'm gettin' the shit out of this game.

I am going to miss Francis. :(

I can't wait nevertheless!

This has got to be a joke.

Even though this should've been an expansion pack or DLC. I am still going end up buying it. L4D is still fucking awesome.

Ok the new poster awesome, second only to Dead Air

I'm just glad to see it come to light....I can't wait.

I still don't even own the first one but I'm still pretty excited about this.

I'm fed up of steam games having poor support on the PS3.

The new characters looks kinda lame.

The new characters looks kinda lame.

little early IMO

I feel cheated....

This fails because L4D 2 is not HL 2: Ep 3

Sad that L4D didn't get this as an update but whatever.
After hours and hours of play I definitely got my moneys worth out of the original.
Just hope this one is released completed unlike the first eg. all campaigns in versus!

A sequel for a game thats less than a year old? Why?
