I don't mind spending more money, but why can't the AI director and new weapons and some new campaigns be rolled into the current L4D as DLC. And if that is too much, make it a paid expansion, so like L4D 1.5. I would also be good if they put all of the L4D campaigns into L4D 2. Certainly is a shock either way, this was a rumour for weeks but I thought it was BS. It would explain why Valve are hiring on their L4D site and that Robin firing dudes thing was just a handy cover-up story.

Oh and here I found that the trailer has been posted on GameTrailers.

Didn't know what it was until I heard some zombie noises from the original L4D. Notice the new Tank.

It's The Chrager not the tank. Cool trailer though. A shame they brough new characters. Im gonna miss the old crew.

You know me, I can't stop talking about Left 4 Dead.
But what the fuck, a sequel?! Already?! I still haven't got all the achievements, what the bloody hell is it doing coming out so soon? And why are Microsoft announcing it?
Oh well, looks fucking kick ass.

Im getting it just because i can play as uncle phil!
Killing pillowing mounds of mashed zombies.

No kidding...maybe they'll allow people to upgrade from L4D1 to L4D2 for like half price...hahaha, made myself laugh there.

Just watched the trailer and dayum the zombies look out of place in sunny n'orleans or w/e that was supposed to be.

Says in the IGN article that they're considering packaging l4d's campaigns in along with the sequel, so might not be too far off there actually.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the Xbox is behind much of this:

For starters, the xbox probably can't handle all of the new stuff as DLC considering how much of it there already needs to be just to run the game.

Secondly, this is probably the dividend VALVe are making to Microsoft for making the first DLC free on the Xbox.

But I can't shake the feeling that, while everything will look nicer with prettier graphics and such, will the game not just look shite on the Xbox because of it's difficulty in running a graphics engine designed for PC?

They could of course offer discounts for those who already own L4D.

Frying pan.

I shall be buying this.
