Yeah, it's good, simple fun...

However, if they think I'm dishing out 72K Won (after currency conversion), they'll be waiting a LONG time.

Team Fortress 2 was worth the $20 (I bought it before the crash), but Left4dead isn't any better IMO.

If you're referring to the XBox360 version, go to Yongsan. It's about 40-45,000 there.

Great game. I've been playing it intensely these last couple weeks (PC).

I'm disappointed at the game's length, though. There is only so much you can do and that's that. I hope they release a map pack with different game modes soon.

That L4D Amazon deal disappeared so fast! Though I couldn't get that one, I actually got in on another Amazon Black Friday deal - got a Xbox 360 Arcade with DDR3 ($70 game) for $130 shipped. That deal lasted probably for about 15 minutes before it was gone.

It seems the Gmarket option is a Korean language version (Han-gul-pan) Anyone try this?

Agreed. But the co-op looks really fun to play with friends. Not too many games offer this kind of gameplay. That's what I'm looking forward to trying.

I have had most of the better rated new release games except Fallout 3. I have to Left 4 Dead is the best game I have played all year. The 4 player co-op is great fun. I have only really played the first level properly so far. I just keep replaying that, changing the difficulty and playing with different people keeps it fresh. Anyway, you never really get the same game twice, so it keeps fresh that way too, there is no telling where or when a witch or tank might turn up.
