    Check out Left 4 Dead!

    "It’s The Zombie Apocalypse. Bring Friends."

    ...preferably friends with good situational awareness, tight communications, solid fire discipline, and great marksmanship!


    By now you've likely seen the TV commercials. If you thought Left 4 Dead was a kid's game of mindless zombie blasting, you couldn't be more wrong! Hundreds of players from across TacticalGamer.com - from Armed Assault to BF2142 to Project Reality and Counter Strike:Source - are hooked on this incredibly immersive and cinematic experience! In L4D, teamwork isn't mandated by server rules - it's required to survive!

    Left 4 Dead takes home three of IGN 's Best of 2008 awards!
    Best Multiplayer Game
    "In a sea of multiplayer games, it's easy to get lost in the humdrum monotony of it all. Yes, deathmatch, team deathmatch, and CTF are all great modes, but they've been done before. While Left 4 Dead's gameplay might not necessarily be revolutionary, its post-apocalyptic zombie setting and refined cooperative mechanics all add up to a rare and refreshing experience..."

    Best Shooting Game
    "Valve continues to deliver titles that veer from the established norm. With Left 4 Dead, an online shooter with a strong emphasis on player cooperation and interaction, the developer yet again delivered a polished, unique, and wildly entertaining product that's near impossible to dislike..."

    Best Use of Sound
    "It's hard to convey a sense of fear and dread when you're playing an online game with friends, but somehow, Valve has managed to pull it off... [read more]


    Stop by the L4D forums and find out what all the buzz is about! Or, better yet, return that sock warmer from grandma and get yourself something you actually want for Christmas!

    Re: Check out Left 4 Dead!

    Left 4 Dead is an awesome game! I've already joined the Tactical Gamer Left 4 Dead group, can't wait to play some Versus and Campaign Co-op with everyone.

    Left 4 Dead is definitly a Team game. It is very very rare that you can do anything without the team. If you decide to Lonewolf or Rambo it is very likely you will get pounced by a Hunter or snagged by a Smoker and then that is the end for you. Many of the crescendo events in Left 4 Dead can only be overcome with the strength of the the team, and if your teamwork isn't at its A game during each "movie's" finale then get used to restarting a bunch.

    It is very satisfying when your team gets hit with a large Horde rush and you are fighting side by side. Shooting Infected that are attacking your buddy, calling out for help when a Hunter pounces you and then one of your mates blasts him off, bashing away a swarm of Infected that are surrounding another Teammate, and hauling to their feet a downed survivor while the rest of your team holds off the horde. This is definitly a great game which can only get better with the teamplay oriented members of Tactical Gamer.

    I really would like to jump in right now and start up a game with whoever is on, but my headset is back in Oklahoma. Have fun killing the hordes of Infected. Good Hunting!

    The best thing about this game is what TG can offer it and what it offers TG in the way of Teamwork. When you play this game with 8 versus with all TG players you have gotta bring your A game and nothing else.

    Most fun game I've ever played up to date. Please look for me in or any other TG players in the Steam group friends to get up a game at anytime. Only problem I wish Steam would extend my friends list only reason is I would like to add another 100 plus TG if I could
    FUN FUN

    Thanks for the news post. L4D totally deserves it! Great game all around, lots of fun. I've been able to play with tons of TG players that I wouldn't usually because we play different games. Get it!

    It's certainly well worth the price.

    I would of payed 100 if they had a better way to connect to our TG servers! Still a great game.
