You know what's BS? This freaking game is working my last nerve!!! Boy do I have a laundry list and it ain't even because the game is bad (The game is actually good folks). It's the online that makes me wanna put a 2x4 to someone's face. This game made me drop more F bombs than Brawl and Halo combined for goodness sake. Here is a good list, please remember this is the Xbox version I'm talking about.

My only wish was that Valve at least acknowledged personal skill (It's what I liked about RE: Outbreak). My fate being decided by random dumb people's actions isn't appealing. End up being the last person alive, better be near the safehouse otherwise you might as well bend over on the floor and put a sign that says **** 4 Free -_-'.

Voting to kick d-bags is annoying, there's almost always someone that votes to keep them in thus ruining the game you're in. Exploits are annoying, all this camping in a corner.That could ruin a game for someone.

All the stuff that I experienced ruined it for me. There's no point in playing. I respect what Valve wanted to do for this game. However, it really irks me when nobody wants to cooperate. If your gonna play, try not to rely on getting good teammates randomly. You're better off trying form a team of people you know or trust over Xbox Live.

Here's hoping Left 4 Dead 2 fixes some of my gripes about this game (So far it looks like it's doing a good job). I got other gripes but, I would probably repeat what other people might not like about the game. For me though, it's the community that ruins the game for me. I'm though waiting for like 20+ games to get a good game going.

Yeah, maybe you should get Left 4 Dead 2 for PC instead of 360.


In my experience playing both versions, there are WAY more dumb people on Xbox live, lol. :p

Most fps games are better on PC anyway. You can make custom stuff and there's more options. If your PC can handle it.
And it's sometimes cheaper to download from steam instead of buying it at a store.


So yeah get the next one on PC :) unless... you really like consoles for some reason

This is why I own a PS3.

Anyway, if your computer has the bawls to handle it, try the PC version some time. Seeing how the PC gamer community (although made up of rich elitists who can afford a new computer every other year) tends to be more calm and intelligent when it comes on online FPS. Although I have had my share of pricks when playing online.

Also, PC version of an FPS almost always it's better than the console counterpart.

My PC sucks and I got L4D to work on it. Custom maps and such is pretty cool. I have to turn off the flash lights and can't use the rifle cause of the lighting effects haha (it makes it that much more blocky). Yea, I play the 360 version on my bros console. It is annoying how dumb people can be. Simple things like crouching and not running off by yourself. AI is annoying too.
