With all the new infected types-which add a good bit of variety to the versus mode when mixed in with the old ones-several new campaigns, a bunch of goofy new melee weapons (Chainsaw, anyone? Perhaps I can interest you in a guitar?) there really is a lot to sink your teeth into here.

Figure that one out! To be fair, I was playing the game on an extremely capable PC and an absolutely enormous monitor, but Left 4 Dead 2 does look markedly better than its predecessor on high settings. There are even male and female boomers now. In addition to the new infected (and, of course, the new survivors special shout-out to my main man Coach), the artists have gone back and remodeled all of the special infected types to make them look more detailed and more disgusting. Valve has clearly put a lot of effort into beefing up Left 4 Dead 2's visuals the Dark Carnival level I was playing on that was first seen at PAX has some great little touches here and there, from detailed carnival signage to horrible, horrible zombie clowns. On the downside, if you jump on a guy and then get knocked off, your leap move has a lengthy cooldown before you can try again-and you'll probably get smoked in the meantime. Plus, in Scavenge, you can keep them from getting near the gas for the few seconds you need to run out the clock. They can struggle against your directive efforts a little bit, but it's not hard to make them wander straight into a pack of slavering zombies and really mess up the humans' gameplan. If you can successfully jump onto one of them, you get to steer them around against their will. What a weird zombie type with a good chance to totally subvert the survivors' efforts. The trade-off is that you can't interrupt the charge if you miss, so you may go careening off away from the action and get destroyed from behind. This ground slam does massive damage and can kill a healthy survivor in a matter of seconds. If you connect with a survivor during that charge, you'll grab them and start slamming them into the ground until they die or the other survivors kill you. Its attack consists of, well, charging in a straight line.
This big brute is sort of like the tank's little brother. It can also spit on dropped gas cans and blow them up.

The spitter is especially useful in Scavenge, since it can spit all over the generator and prevent the survivors from delivering any gas for a few seconds. The spitter seems especially fragile and doesn't have an enormous range, so it seems best suited for sneaking around and coming up right behind a party. Attacks with projectile acidic vomit that covers the ground and creates an area-of-effect damage radius. Before we got into the Scavenge mode, I had a fine time playing some regular old L4D versus, trying out the three new infected character types that have been added in this sequel. Seasoned Left 4 Dead players know that splitting your team up often means certain death. And since the gas cans are scattered all over the place and you need to split your team up to find them, getting yourself and the gas back to the middle in one piece is a dicey proposition. If your team is disorganized and you don't manage to get any gas back in time, well, it lasts about a minute. Scavenge is an incredibly fast-paced and potentially short mode. Scavenge rounds start with around one minute on the clock, and every can of gas you deliver adds an additional 20 seconds. Gas is life.) You need to gather these cans and bring them back to a generator, and then successfully dump them in (via a progress bar that gets cut short if you take a hit) to extend an extremely short timer. In it, the survivors look for 16 gasoline cans spread around a small level. The focus of that event was the game's new "Scavenge" versus mode.

You know, the one that goes "there's enough content here to justify selling this as a full sequel and not a downloadable add-on to a game that was kind of thin on content to begin with." Actually, I don't think they've been saying that last part, but nonetheless, I'm finally starting to agree with them after my latest chance to check the game out at a hands-on event. Pour it! Valve has been making its argument about Left 4 Dead 2 since the game's announcement inflamed the Internet back at E3.
