Massiveterra Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I currently have Dead Space, COD WaW and Left4Dead rented through Gamefly, and want to make room on my queue for Prince of Persia. I'll be returning Dead Space once I am finished with it, which would prolly be around mid december. So, I'm thinking of keeping either COD WaW or Left4Dead. Right now Gamefly is having a $10 off sale, so buying either game would be $35, plus I have $5 gamefly buck, which means the game would actually be $30. Here's my dilemma. I love Left4Dead more than COD WaW, but as far as a game with a longer lifespan, I have no clue. WaW has the incentive of the online ranking and unlocking system, plus completing the Co-op and zombie mode challenges, which adds to the MP EXP. Left 4 Dead has no online ranking, so I would constantly have to find friends to play this game with online, and I don't know how long people would be playing this game for into next year. Lemme know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Diller Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I've heard better things about L4D than the new CoD, and having played L4D on the PC, I can tell you that I love it. CoD, however, I think will have the longevity going for it moreso than L4D. That's the only reason I haven't purchased it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted December 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted December 1, 2008 I'd keep Left4Dead, however if you are all about the big team battles then COD5 is the one to keep. I think everyone knows my opinion of COD5 around here :p L4D is no doubt the better game at the end of the day (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 1, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted December 1, 2008 I'd go WaW. I'll fire up COD at night and play online, I won't do that with L4D unless I have a group of friends to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 WaW, L4D is a bit too limited because you tend to play it with friends only and WaW is fine with randoms as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Stick with CoD. L4D is a real disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted December 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted December 1, 2008 Well, you can still play L4D with randoms as well. Just not as many randoms vs COD5 :p It also has that awesome drop in/out AI when you hit pause (Y) Seriously I don't get the hype behind COD5, just play the better version aka COD4 :yes: Zombie mode doesn't beat zombie game. FACT! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d4v1d05 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 After having played both on PC, and discovered the many marvellous glitches in CoD5, I'd say get L4D on PC ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no matter what the reviews say, it still comes down to Massive deciding on which gameplay/type he likes better.

1WayJonny Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Call of duty is my favorite but i waited over 2 yrs for L4D... My advice is keep L4D because its 4player CO-OP that is just outright fun! New style of gaming (not that different though) but still its a nice break from usually But.... you are using gamefly and can get them back at no charge .... so its not that much of a decision.

I've been too busy to play games full stop, so that's nothing negative in L4D's book ;) Then let's wait for the most played list from MN and then we can all point and laugh at you :p Doesn't matter, the review scores show L4D is the better game, nothing changes that ;). I don't care if 1 million 6yr olds are all playing COD5 every night. It still sucks :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
