Notice something?
When the above box art for Valve's upcoming horror game Left 4 Dead hit the internet, gamers fell in love right away. But a few noticed something horribly wrong. We've got the DEAD zombie hand, we've got the 4 fingers... but why's it the RIGHT hand?
Oops.
Valve of course soon realized the same thing, and so we have this new final version of the box art, with the complete and perfect visual pun intact. They didn't even need any words!
Just makes me laugh. If you haven't been keeping track of this game (check out my E3 coverage if you haven't) it's destined to be one of the most entertaining of the next few months. Watch out for it when it hits in the middle of November, and check the official site for more info.

xtremist,
everyone who has real-life friends and a big screen you retard.
If all prior-gen games can support this, wtf can't "next gen" games. I'm gonna pirate this if it doesn't give me four player splitscreen

A lot of the guys I game with are hoping this is a big unifier for us, as we've all splintered in the past months (thanks to growing tired of COD4), and they mostly play Rock Band 2 and I'll be playing Silent Hill: Homecoming (why no review of this yet, by the way?).

Why does a game where you pretend to play music need a review? Learn to play a real instrument you fucking L-O-S-E-R.
Comment #6 (Posted by Count Fuckyou)
Because not everyone has the time or ability to learn an instrument but still enjoys music. Why do many, many folks want to play a clicky action game with a monthly fee? Because they enjoy it.

"I'm gonna pirate this if it doesn't give me four player splitscreen."
How about you just don't play it. That option is also available to you. Fucking gamers always act like they're owed something. Grow up.

What's the mistake?
I don't get it. Can someone explain?

For the people not getting it Left 4 Dead the left hand has 4 fingers on it. It took me a few seconds to get it as well so don't feel too bad. So the picture is Left hand 4 fingers and its a zombie hand dead. Its a picture that describes the title. Hope its clear to you know.

To translate it a bit easier:
Left(hand)4(fingers)Dead(hand)
:P

Am I the only one that thinks this box art is ugly? I really just don't buy the photoshop job on the hand.... all the green.... just kinda meh.
