Left 4 Sims – A Gamers Diary
Posted @ 5:07 PM, July 29 2009, By: Evo In Left 4 Dead
 You may have noticed BlueWolf mentioning this on the forum but good friend of mine The_B (aka Ben Borthwick) has created the cast of Left 4 Dead in The Sims 3 and he went on to make a little diary about it. This is only the start though, he promises that future episodes will feature some of the Infected which is sure to add some extra spice to procedings. You can play around with the Survivors yourself if you head here. Expect the Infected to be available shortly. If you want to find out more about why Ben created this little tale, check out my interview with him.

Depeche Mode are in Left 4 Dead 2
Posted @ 7:13 AM, July 28 2009, By: Evo In Left 4 Dead 2
Are you a fan of British 80's electro-pop band Depeche Mode? If so you are in for a pleasent suprise as the band will be in Left 4 Dead 2. Eurogamer reports that Valve's Chet Faliszek had been in touch with a variety of bands and record labels in the interest of referencing them in the game. Currently we will see Rochelle sport a Depeche Mode t-shirt, but don't be suprised if the band let Valve use more than just their name on a piece of clothing. This is not the first time that famous musicians have featured in the Left 4 Dead franchise, Faith No More's Mike Patton was involved in the first game, and who can forget the brilliance of The Orange Box Soundtrack.

Left 4 Dead 2 Bits
Posted @ 4:03 PM, July 27 2009, By: Chris_D In News
Boycotter "invented" SpitterThat's right, you read correctly. One of the main Left 4 Dead 2 boycotters supposedly invented the Spitter infected in Left 4 Dead 2, months before it was shown at Comic Con. Eurogamer.net reports on the story where it turns out that Walking_Target posted on the Steam forums back in May: Concept: an SI capable of lobbing a fair size glob of 'saliva' on an arcing path; at maximum (45* angle) on flat terrain, this glob of spit would travel roughly the same distance as a smoker's tongue. Obviously, if the spitter has a better vantage point they can lob their projectile a fair distance further. Walking_Target, to be fair, does acknowledge that the idea wasn't necessarily stolen by Valve in a Steam Community Announcement. To read the full story, head on over to Eurogamer.net. What's New InterviewThe guys over at Game Trailers have posted a short interview with Chet Faliszek all about what's good and new with Left 4 Dead 2. This includes the new Swamp campaign, the new weapons and more Click here to see the video.

Left 4 Dead 2 To Feature Bulletproof Zombies
Posted @ 3:51 AM, July 24 2009, By: DigiQ8 In Left 4 Dead 2
It seems The Parish campaign will feature another uncommon-common infected. The riot police wearing full bulletproof vests zombies.
These kevlar wearing infected can only be killed from behind, making it especially difficult if two are bearing down on your character. A quick melee hit will stun them, even knocking them down and exposing their posteriors. But as they charge you, unloading a full clip on their fronts will essentially do nothing.
You can read Kotaku's impressions here.
