New L4D Playtesting Reviews

Here are some new reviews of the game we're all waiting for, released after VALVe gave these sites the opportunity to see the game after they've been doing some "intense playtesting at Valve".

"Warning Sign: Left 4 Dead has one notably absent feature: allies turning on you as zombies. It's a common element of damn near every film and amateur zombie mod, and it just doesn't happen here. There's a mode where opposing players can take control of zombies, but your friends don't change sides after dying. I can understand how that would cause a whole microsociological clusterf***, and balancing a thing like that properly would be a nightmare and a half -- but it's still startling that the mode doesn't exist."
That's a good point, I'd like to see friends turn into zombies when they're killed. What does everyone else think?

Friends turning to zombies would be cool. It would make it so that as the team gets killed the odds are even more against them.
Like if there are two left that means there are SIX player-controlled zombies... Pure win.
With any luck there'll be a mod for it


And Leroy, all I have to say is:
*facedesk*

Its more fun than *facepalm*...

And with that we end this off-topicness.

Do you have any comments on the reviews? Or just my lack of a spoiler on the pic?

Well they're not zombies they're infected and it is stated the the 4 players are somehow immune to the virus thats cause everyone to go crazy.
