In an interview conducted by my good self at last week's 2 event near Bridge, Head spokesman for told us that consumers shouldn't be so quick to pass judgement on the zombie shooting sequel until "we've put all our cards on the table."

Clearly Valve have big plans to ensure that both games enjoy a long and happy shelf life with speculation abound that the two titles will be cross compatible.

"How that all plays out is still something we're looking at. We want to have the most elegant way possible to have those who own both (games) be connected with others who own both or to be able to play across (both)." Lombardi states in the full interview due on Strategy Informer tomorrow.

It's abundantly clear to us that Left 4 Dead 2 will be a genuinely worthwhile sequel, especially with added cricket bat as reported earlier today.

Roll on November 17th!

    Now, is that reserving judgement?

    Hmm another Left 4 Dead article guess this still works.

    I have to agree on you with this, as soon as I heard they were coming out with a new Left 4 Dead 2 for 360 I decided that they are pricks and sold my Left 4 Dead. We have all been waiting for some good DLC for the current game, heck I'm still waiting for Episode 3 DLC for half-Life 2.

    I have reserved anger for my judgment.

    I understand that Valve is a company and must make money to stay afloat but if they lack creativity enough to simply revamp L4D1 and slap a 2 on the end just to make some bucks, I am sorely dissapointed. Valve has never been lacking in the creativity department before, why this now?
