Left 4 Dead 2 Kicks Zombie Ass
Well, Zombiephiles, the day we’ve all been waiting for (or, at least, the day this Zombiephile has been waiting for) has finally arrived – Left 4 Dead 2 was released about six hours ago (following a brief delay for God only knows what reason), and I’ve been knee-deep in zombies for the last two hours. Say what you will about how quickly Left 4 Dead 2 was released, and moan all you want about the fact that most developers are going to abandon the first Left 4 Dead game in favor of programming mods for the second one – all of that is true, but the simple fact remains that Left 4 Dead is an absolutely fantastic zombie video game, incredibly fun, and a significant upgrade over the original.

Left 4 Dead 2 APPROVED In Australia!
Well, Australian zombiephiles, you can breathe a collective sigh of relief. Apparently people at Valve and the Australian game classification board have been reading this zombie blog, because they’ve gone ahead and approved a modified version of Left 4 Dead 2 for sale in Australia.
