Left 4 Dead 2 (Xbox 360)

The Left 4 Dead series has really gotten everyone by surprise. Even me! The game itself revolves around four survivors as they try to make their way to an evacuation point. Aaah, but did I mention that the world has been thrusted into a zombie nightmare? Such is the universe of left 4 dead. Players are forced to co-operate. If you are not a team-player; then don't expect to make it too far in here. You'll soon become zombie chow.

The game was really meant as a multi-player online affair. That or you can bring a buddy for splitscreen offline co-op. It is suggested that you have an account with LIVE...that is IF you want to truly enjoy this game to it's fullest potential. Modes include scavenge, versus, and survival. Did I mention that you get to have the chance to play as the zombies? Yep! Now you can smash those annoying little survivors! How cool is that?

If you plan on playing this game alone...don't expect much beyond the five single-player campaigns. They are fun, but not alot of story to them.

The game's great. Suggested for co-op fans!
