You’ve got to love how videogame consumers reward originality. Here we have a fresh, brand new IP with an awesome gimmick and excellently implemented four-player co-op … and people are too busy playingHalo 3to care.
Left 4 Deadis not exactly breaking records in terms of how many people are playing it, coming in at only number seven in the Xbox Live activity chart. It has been beaten by nothing but established franchises withHalo 3,World at War,Modern Warfare,GTA IVand evenFable 2charting ahead.
Personally, I couldn’t imagine passing up wave after wave of infected for a couple of crappy Spartans, but there’s no accounting for taste, I suppose. Hit the jump for this week’s Live activity.
