Subject: Left4Dead for Xbox 360?



Hello,



My name is *BLANK! XD* and I have been following L4D ever since I read about it in an article EGM had printed in their magazine. Now, I initially got interested in this game because it was said to be a 360 title and thus that is how I will be playing the game. My concern is that most focus of the game has been on the PC, and no information has been discussed for the xbox360 version. My main question would be about the release of the title, primarily if the two versions are set to be released at the same time or if the Xbox360 version will follow months after the pc release. Any reply is appreciated, thank you for your time.

I knew it! :D

Now PC people can't tease the 360 people about how they have to wait longer.

Has all this talk of 'release' reminded anyone else of The Giver?

"Needless to say, he will be released."

This has been covered before that the two versions are being worked on simultaneously.

Awesome. I think it'll have a lot more hype if they release at the same time. Now, the issue of cross-platform.

There's a huge problem in cross-platform with mouse/keyboard vs controller. Now, I don't really want to be left out from the X360 players... options are this:

-No cross-platform play.

-Total cross-platform play. (Not sure if that would happen, I'm not sure I want a console gamer as a teammate for Survivors - nothing against you guys)

-Mixed. I say to have at least SOME cross-platform we could have it so the X360 players can play as the infected on PC servers. I think that'd be really cool since the infected side bosses don't require super accuracy. Whaddya think?

And I don't mean to be mean to console gamers, I'll have the X360 version too!

Yeah, there are some 360 players who I'd be glad to play with. e.g. Shrubbery for the Python quotes he may or may not randomly spew in game.

I wouldn't have a problem with it, in theory two console's and two PC's could make a pretty good team. (even if they were like me, and couldn't aim very fast with a joystick)

I always spew quotes.

I've seen a doctor about it, but he was profoundly stumped.

The likelihood of me buying a 360 game/console is not high tho.

I'm a PC guy.
