Valve’s eventual DLC for Left 4 Dead is bound to disappoint someone, because we all want different things.
The Best of 2011
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2011.
Black Desert Online
This Korean title would be the greatest MMO ever made if not for the horrendous monetization system. And the embarrassing translation. And the terrible progression. And the developer's general apathy towards its western audience.
The Best of 2019
I called 2019 "The Year of corporate Dystopia". Here is a list of the games I thought were interesting or worth talking about that year.
Top 64 Videogames
Lists of 'best games ever' are dumb and annoying. But like a self-loathing hipster I made one anyway.
Please Help I Can’t Stop Playing Cities: Skylines
What makes this borderline indie title so much better than the AAA juggernauts that came before?
It all makes sense now…
I trained with the Bo Staff when I was practicing Tae Kwon Do.
I still keep a couple of staffs stashed around the house – just in case there is ever a zombie outbreak.
Like Bill, I believe in being prepared….

Good one
I… think just keep thinking that Bill can’t get any stupider… I am always wrong.
I keep thinking that those who post on the Escapist how tired they are of Left4Dumb can’t get any stupider .. and I am always wrong too.
On a random note, I’d love one of Bill’s cigs… Those things last forever.
@ Al: Eh, I’m getting a bit tired of it, too. It’s good, it’s funny, but at this point it seems like it should be it’s own comic, seperate and distinct from Stolen Pixels(and not stopping Stolen Pixels updates).
Although Left 4 Dumb typically bores me (not that I’m demanding something else, it is, after all, your blog), this is the first one that I’ve actually found humorous. So I applaud you, while still quietly hoping you’ll one day finish this particular arc and move on to new and more familiar territory.
I have long said that the ideal weapon to have on hand in a zombie outbreak is a suit of powered armor…preferably Samus-styled. Francis’ thoughts are an admirable step towards that beautiful dream.
A broom would be badass
This was one of those comics where by the time you got to the comment in the second panel, you knew what was going to happen at the end, yet when you got to the punchline, it was still funny. Well done Shamus.
On a different thought: I wonder if this is what Valve had in mind when they announced melee combat for L4D2?
