					| the more i see of this game the more it lodges itself into the "must buy" category, the pipe bomb thing is strange, but seeing as the *zombies* are actually like 28 days later *infected*people they are bound to act strange, as their motivation isnt to tear you apart to eat you-hence not sticking to the classic (well for george a romero) zombie kill of head shot, the infected in left 4 dead seem to be taken down with the same body shots that would take down a living human, but i digress
 when there is no more room in hell, the D34D will walk the earth

 I assume that was directed towards me and my  small amounts of criticism I have for it?
 
 It certainly appears that they are pretty far in development and I doubt to much is going to change from here on out.   They also seemed to be pretty pleased with what I disliked so I doubt it will change before its released. Even though I noticed a few things I disliked I certainly over all like it and still think its going to be a great game.   No game is perfect.

Finally a gaming company realizes how much fun co-op is.

					| You know what I can't wait for? The bitching about it.
 People have been crying forever they want more co-op games. So now we get one, and as soon as other companies see what a cash crop co-op is, and start making co-op games, I guarantee you everyone is going to start bashing them because "they're trying to be like left 4 dead" or copying them and is oh so un-innovative.

 The pipe bomb as  a weapon is just fine.  The zombies chasing after it and attacking it is my problem.    But I guess it would be rather useless if they didn't as they are so damn fast.
 | 
 
 
 Who knows, maybe there's a reason why they do that.
 Perhaps the pipe bombs have some kind of stuff on them that attracts the zombies.
 
 
 Anyway, game looks great, I love coop and can't wait to get this. And considering it's Source, we'll see lots of mods for it too I guess which is always good.

					| I rather like the box art. It's much more unique and subtle than something like having the four survivors lined up looking tough or whatever, which is what I was expecting.
 This is a day one purchase, for me, even though it looks like it will be more expensive than I was hoping (Gamestop says $44.99, which is the highest pricetag I've seen on a single, standalone, non-bundled Valve game since Half-Life 1).
 
 Correcting people since 2007 even if they're not wrong.

 No, the retail MSRP is the same price as it is on Steam. I prefer to buy the boxed versions of Valve games, because they are the same content and the same price as a download-only copy, and the bonus is that I get a nice box to display on my shelf, which matters to me, because I am a collector.

 How is that a "failure"? Two games (from the same publisher, no less) have similar boxart, and thus, one of them "fails"? 90% of game boxes are seriously pretty similar (usually it the heroes standing around looking tough, or some soldiers in a combat scene, et cetera), so I don't think that's fair to say...

					| It's a pretty iconic rising from the dead pose in the case of 'Left 4 Dead' and 'Dead Space' has a flopping, severed/dead, hand floating around aimlessly in space. Seems apt in both cases. Don't like either cover but as I buy my games online it ain't going to make much of a difference to me. |  |

					| Perhaps, but Valve has a track record of constantly delaying their titles.   You know what would be a better solution?  Stop with the premature announcements.  Announce the release date when, and only when, the software is READY.  That way they don't have to announce yet another delay.
