Left 4 Dead

Left 4 Dead is an intense first person shooter zombie game.  It is the simplest game I've ever played, but is also a really fun game.  Left 4 Dead is set in a major city and the object of the game is to get from one safe room to the next.  Although, there are only five primary weapons and a pistol, there are also pipe bombs and a Molotov cocktail.  The game play is fast and intense.  While playing there many different types of zombies.  The smoker which can grab you from long distances, the hunter who jumps on you, the boomer which spews his bile on you causing a horde of common zombies to swarm you and attack you.  There is also the tank and the witch who aren't encountered many time throughout the game.  This game is scary at some points and is also thrilling.  Many times zombies will spring at you out of nowhere and startle you.  My only problem with this game is the multiplayer.  If you don't have any friends who play this game the multiplayer is not as fun.  When playing online with random people on your team, the team will suffer.  On multiplayer the the survivor team has to work together as a unit, but when playing with random people nobody will work together to get to the safe house.  Everybody runs as fast as they can to get to the safe house and each person is quickly picked off.  I would recommend Left 4 Dead to people that would have a few friends to play it with.
