Left 4 Dead 2 takes place at roughly the same time as the original, and leads four new “Survivors” through the southeastern United States — from Savannah, Georgia to New Orleans’ French Quarter. The title adds melee combat, new monsters and weapons, the AI Director 2.0, and more to create a larger game than the original.

As in the original, you can play Left 4 Dead 2 co-operatively with up to three other human players or a compliment of humans and AI bots. The best experience, of course, is that of sharing the game with a group of friends. The bots technically do their job, but they're still just bots and if you were hoping the brain dead AI from the first game would be fixed here – well, sorry Charlie. The bots still refuse to throw pipe bombs.

This is the unique experience of online multiplayer games, particularly first-person shooters that command such a community as this one does. Left 4 Dead 2 gamers on Xbox Live, and other online multiplayer games for that matter, create connections with one another that make this game far outlive a normal FPS shelf life.

Left 4 Dead 2 is a near perfect slice of gaming heaven, set in gaming hell. The graphics and sound have been enhanced, the gameplay has been refined, the new setting is well chosen and hugely varied, the new modes add even more playability, and the new weapons, items and enemies add even more substance to what is a surprisingly deep game, considering that, at its core, it’s a basic shooter/survival horror hybrid. It’s like the lovechild of Unreal Tournament and Resident Evil, and when you’ve got three good friends in tow to fend off the undead masses, it’s one of the best gaming experiences you can find online. It’s also very educational, too; when the zombie apocalypse finally happens for real, those few immune Left 4 Dead veterans will be the only ones left standing…

I still haven’t mentioned the new multiplayer modes, have I? L4D2 expands the multiplayer beyond the cooperative and versus modes that accompanied the release of the original game. This time around survival mode, a mode available to the original L4D via free download, is included with the retail release. Best compared to Gears of War 2’s Horde mode or ODST’s Firefight mode, Survival is basically a fight against the clock. Brand new to L4D2 is Scavenge mode. This is a new type of versus mode that pits teams against each other as they take turns collecting gas cans and securing them by dumping them into a generator. It changes up the versus formula and gives it more of a finite goal.
