MY FAVORITE PC GAME

Activity#18(Carlo Fuerte)

Well I am not really one of the kids that are addicted to computer games but I have played a few. From the hand picked games I have played I really like Left 4 Dead because of the game play.

I only play Left 4 Dead with my cousins. We usually play in the multiplayer mode (versus) because we love the concept of having two groups the humans and the zombies. Left 4 Dead is cooperative survival horror first-person shooter video game. Left 4 Dead contains four game modes: campaign, versus, survival, and single-player. The cooperative campaign consists of up to four human-controlled survivors who attempt to make their way between safe rooms and eventually to rescue. In this mode, the special infected are controlled by the AI. In a versus campaign, each team of one to four players plays each chapter of the campaign as both survivor and infected, swapping sides once per chapter. Unlike campaign mode, dead survivors do not respawn. If at least one player-controlled survivor finishes the level, the survivor team earns 100 points as well as bonus points based on their health and the health items in their inventory. These points are then multiplied by the chapter's difficulty level, and the number of survivors who finished. If all player-controlled survivors are killed, the survivor team only earns points according to their average progress through the chapter and the difficulty multiplier. Survival mode consists of a timed challenge where players try to survive as long as possible against a never-ending flood of the infected, added in April 2009 in the Survival Pack downloadable content. Single-player mode is similar to campaign mode, but played offline with three AI-controlled bots as the other survivors. On Xbox 360, other players can join in on the same console to turn single player into an offline co-op game. The game can also be played through a system link, or local area network. Players have also discovered a way to do splitscreen co-op play with the PC version.

Even though I haven’t really played this game that much and never really finished the game I know it because of my cousins.
