Inappropriate invasions of personal space? WILL THE HORRORS OF THE APOCALYPSE NEVER END?!?
How I Plan To Rule This Dumb Industry
Here is how I'd conquer the game-publishing business. (Hint: NOT by copying EA, 2K, Activision, Take-Two, or Ubisoft.)
The Best of 2015
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2015.
Overused Words in Game Titles
I scoured the Steam database to figure out what words were the most commonly used in game titles.
Trekrospective
A look back at Star Trek, from the Original Series to the Abrams Reboot.
The Best of 2018
I called 2018 "The Year of Good News". Here is a list of the games I thought were interesting or worth talking about that year.

I haven’t seen a metric from Valve for who gets the most heals, but I’ve seen one that says Zoey takes less friendly fire damage. Probably because she’s both smaller and more brightly colored than the other survivors.
So if Zoey takes a bit less damage on average it might end up evening out as far as who gets healed more.
Congrats on getting BoingBoing’d this morning. Not my fault, for reals.
Oh, come on! You guys forget who we are here!! You KNOW Zoey’s getting healed 200% more often than anyone else! Just Google for “l4d zoey nude patch” (er … not that I have).
I’d be interested to see if there’s anything in the versus data for who gets targeted the most and by what.
As soon as I saw this strip, I thought of this ctrl-alt-del: http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/comic.php?d=20081117. I’m not sure I want to think about what that says about me.
eMonkey:
It says that you read CAD. So yeah, it says a lot about you.
Yeah, I thought of that CAD comic, too. So true. XD
Uh, I mean, I don’t get it. >.>
I wonder how often The Tank goes after Zoey, as opposed to Francis, Bill, and Louis? Do people hesitate to beat down the 20-year-old girl, or do they instinctively go for the weediest target?
Just Google for “l4d zoey nude patch” (er … not that I have).
I did and sadly it does exist. FFS What is the matter with these people
Interesting fact: I’ve been reading Left 4 Dumb so much that I’m convinced Francis is a total moron at all times, hence resulting in more friendly fire.
Or maybe it’s because that stupid bastard dresses in black in an already dark game, where I don’t really have time to stop and ask “Hey, dude! Are you a zombie?” after every time I hear a funny noise.
The expression on Zoey’s face is priceless: perfect bemusement.
