So I’m making up for lost time? For those of you (a lot of times like me) that don’t read news updates, this one came across L4D on  January 14th.  This as an awesome early update before they do the DLC/SDK update and should REALLY help the infected.  I’ve not played yet (I’m more exited to tell the world than play, I guess! ). It continues to show that Valve actually values players and their input.  Something the big boys (cough…Activision & EA) could learn a thing or 2 from.

Anyway, here’s a list of the fixes if you missed the update news…  (more…)

If you haven’t picked up the game yet, what are you waiting for?  Hop over to Amazon and grab Left 4 Dead [for the PC] or [for the Xbox 360] today!

I updated the gallery, you can check it out here.

Also, here’s a few of my favorites and the “movie” posters:

I’ve been pretty neglectful around here the past month and a half, mostly playing Left 4 Dead and keeping busy with other things.

Anyway, Valve has announced that the SDK is coming very soon as well as downloadable content and the other 2 maps for vs.  While I really want to play Dead Air and Death Toll in vs, I’m really excited to see the SDK coming soon!  This opens the door to user created content and some excellent mods that are already being worked on and just waiting for the SDK release including Dead Before Dawn from Darth_Brush.

A lot of the information can be found over at L4DMods as well as Left4Dead411.

Check out this video regarding the progress on the upcoming Valve release:

Here’s Darth_Brush’s intro to Dead Before Dawn

As much as I would like to have a full gaming experience with Call of Duty: World at War, I don’t think it’s possible.  I’ve encountered so many errors and issues that I don’t think I can remember all of them.

It initially started on the beta.  I had a few days of fun with the beta and suddenly one day it started crashing after getting partially through the map load screen…the screen would flash and then crash.  There was an error message but the brilliant minds at Treyarch didn’t think to allow the error to show over the game executable dialog so I have no idea what the message was, just showed an error dialog that couldn’t be viewed.  I played with settings and found that if I disabled Crossfire on my dual ATI Radeon 3870’s, and clicked on restore factory defaults (I didn’t change anything but did it anyway) it worked.

I’ve been playing Left 4 Dead for a few days and the demo last week and I have to say that this is the freakin’ best FPS of the year.  While there are a few short comings, like the length overall it’s just incredible!  I’ll try to put more up this week but in the mean time, I’ve updated the screenshots for the first time in a looong while!   I’m going to try to start uploading in all their glory (1920×1200 or 1680×1050) but for now, here they are in 1024×640.  Enjoy…
