COD WaW or Left4Dead?


Recommended Posts

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.

You know my answer on what to keep. ;)

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

Reviews speak for themselves boyos!

L4D > COD5 :yes:

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

And besides, I haven't seen you wanting to play MP with him in L4D :p

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.

Yup I agree, it depends on his taste because both games are vastly different MP experiences. 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

Review scores are based off one lonely guy's preference, most played list is based off the users opinion

Mob opinion > One guys opinion.

kk? :p

That's the only problem with COD MP. Going to get worse after Xmas.

    • It saddens me when cars are such dull colours now. Mine is bright metallic blue and I absolutely adore it for standing out in contrast to that depressing backdrop of traffic.

    • lol it was a typo, fixed! haha imagine an actual 4TB Gen4 NVMe for $40 in 2026
    • Get over it, has nothing to do with my point.
    • I really don't like these rounded corners and huge borders in the viewport. They just waste space without anything in return.
