Left 4 Dead 2 will throw you into a zombie-filled world full of those hungry flesh eating monsters leaving you to find weapons to fight for survival and also find some sort of safe haven in this new terror filled world.

Valve has controversially released the next instalment of its popular zombie-massacre hit Left 4 Dead only about a year after the original.

Left 4 Dead 2 is a first-person shooter in the style of the Medal Of Honour series but instead of fighting enemy troops you are fighting infected hoardes who have fallen prey to a 28-Days-Later inspired virus. Little is known about how the virus spread but from graffiti messages scrawled on walls, it appears as though there has been a goverment conspiracy to keep things quiet and blame everything, in echoes of the Stephen King novel The Stand, on a new strain of flu! Unfortunately it has become imposible to keep things quiet any longer and now people are abandoning the cities in their masses! You play one of four survivors left behind and trying to reach ...  Read the complete review
