Green Flu – Left 4 Dead ‘Sacrifice’: Part 1 released
Jokes & boycotts aside, Left 4 Dead is still very much alive. Valve are releasing ‘The Sacrifice’ DLC in October (for both Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2) and, in typical Valve fashion, they’re doing it in a spectacular way.
This time, we get a humongous comic graphic novel, granularly released over 4 weeks, documenting the aftermath of the military rescue at the end of Blood Harvest, the origin of the plague & the survivors plight.
Episode 1 features Louis. His first encounter with a zombie is on the loo, which may very well explain his demeanour.
Left 4 Dead 2 – DLC 1 – (Leeds United 4)
We’re hoping to get our Left 4 Dead 2 review out soon, but other commitments have held that up. Now the excuses are done, it’s time to mention the first DLC pack for the zombie co-op sequel.
Zoey, Bill, Francis and Louis are due to appear in the first pack, which goes by the name ‘The Passing’ and features new single & multiplayer content for the game on both formats.
Pricing is currently ambiguously ‘TBA’, but will probably follow the old ‘free for PC, chargeable for Xbox 360 because Microsoft smell’ pattern, unless Valve are ready to trigger yet another … Read More…

Bat Mentality – Left 4 Dead 2 ‘Dark Carnival’ footage
Despite what everyone’s opinions on the ‘early arrival’ of the sequel for Left 4 Dead, it doesn’t change the fact that Valve are at least trying to make the game different, what with the proper melee weapons (with added violence), new and more radical special infected (mainly designed around weeding out the exploits of the first game) and uncommon common infected who force you too mix up your playstyle a bit.
Still, I wish they’d stop demoing the game on the farking Xbox 360 (or at least get someone talented to play it)…

Because it ain’t just about the comics no more – SDCC trailers
It seems these days that every expo under the sun is suitable for showing off the latest trailers for games – when the Call Centre Expo in the Brimingham NEC starts showing off the latest 360 releases, they can pay me royalties or something for calling it!
Regardless, hit the jump for footage from the show. Highlights include some proper stylish Borderlands footage, further proof that the PC is realllllly the platform too play Left 4 Dead 2 on, more sneaky Alpha Protocol footage and more…
