"Son we just crossed the street." When you stop and think about it, and really let that statement sink in, its scary to imagine trying to fight your way OUT of a city. It also shows the veteran is still saavy of his surroundings in combat, even after Vietnam.

[@rock1145]

Bill is also the one who notices first notices that the witch is a zombie, and comes up with the plan to fight the tank ("Run or shoot?" "Both!"). That instinctual, on the fly decision making is very likely something he developed in Vietnam and it serves him just as well in the zombie apocalypse. The character moments are great in this intro. You can see that Zoey is the kind one, wanting to rescue everyone she can (Going to help the "Crying woman" and saving Louis from the hunter. Louis, while scared and out of his depth, is still the optimistic one in the group ("We made it!") Francis is having the time of his life and likes making fun of the others , even daring the Tank to fight him in the alley. He's in his element as much as Bill. And all of them protect the rest of the team no matter what. Even Francis. Capturing the characters and the spirit of the game excellently, in addition to cinematically showing off many of the mechanics. This is a very smartly written intro.

Things the intro teaches you about the gameplay, like some kind of hidden low-key tutorial: 0:28 - The infected are mutating, and rapidly so. Took them only 2 weeks. There's more to this than just generic zombies. 1:11 - Existence of Witches. 1:22 - Random Horde attacks. 1:27 - Witches are startled by light. 1:32 - Doors can hold infected back, but not for long since they are inevitably broken. 1:37 - Francis shoves a zombie back. 1:41 - Louis keeps shooting the witch and she's still not dead. This wasn't worth the trouble - should've just left her alone. 1:44 - Smoker introduction: his one of a kind screech and his ability to attack survivors from range with his tongue. Bill can't escape himself - Francis has to save him, which introduces mandatory teamwork aspect. 1:54 - Francis "revives" Bill. 2:03 - Pipe bombs. They beep and attract infected, to the point they they turn 180 and run away from survivors. Very useful. 2:17 - Hunter introduction. Extremely agile and nible, stalking you from the roofs. 2:29 - Hunter Pounce. Once again, Louis can't escape himself and has to be saved by Zoey - teamwork is mandatory or you're dead. 2:38 - Cars that blink in yellow are bad. Very bad. Loud sounds bad in general (but not gunfire?...) 2:45 - Proper Horde attracted by a loud sound. Big trouble. 3:00 - Tank introduction: can punch cars and use them as projectiles to a devastating effect. Tank's theme can be heard for the first time. 3:06 - Tank doesn't give a shit about other infected. 3:12 - "Run or shoot?" "Both" - best / optimal tactic to deal with Tanks. 3:26 - Ladders. 3:39 - Tank's rumble throw. 3:47 - Tanks can climb. 4:02 - Survivors can pull their hanging friends. 4:08 - Ammo stockpile and medkits can be seen. You'll learn to love the sight of these. 4:12 - "I can't believe we made it..." "Son, we just crossed the street." - every step a fight. You'll fight for your goddamn life just trying to cross the street. 4:24 - Previous statement, solidified. Notes: - Bill is the only one armed with a Tier 2 weapon - M16 rifle, while Louis and Francis are armed with tier 1 UZI and pump-action shotgun respectively, and Zoey uses secondary dual 9mm's for some reason. - Innacuracy: Witch fails to break through the door, when in the game she breaks it in a single hit. - Boomer is the only special infected who isn't shown here. I wonder why. - The ending of the intro acts as the start of the first "No Mercy" campaign. During the events of the intro all survivors lose their primary weapons: Francis loses his shotgun when Tank hits him, Bill drops his rifle while climbing the crumbling ladder and Zoey loses her 2nd pistol when she almost falls. Louis is the only exception - you can't see the moment when he loses his UZI, yet he starts the game without it. Plothole much? - The remains of a ladder can be seen in game, blocking a path. Strangely, no corpses or remains can be seen behind (or under) it.

The zombies actually do react to gunshots, flashlights and even footsteps, but only when it's nearby, likely due to the fact that their hearing is severely damaged and gunshots sound loud to us but extremely muffled to them, indistinguishable from most other noises. The reason high pitched sounds get them riled up is because they have greatly increased sensitivity to them, so they're not chasing you when they come, they're trying to attack what's causing them extreme pain and assume it's you.

My first time playing it was going to gamestop and looking for a game to play when I was like 7 or 8 and I saw some strange looking sliver and green case for the xbox 360 and I inspected it and saw that it was a zombie game. I immediately knew I had to get it, and my mom bought it for me. On the way home. I was beyond excited. I knew what zombies were, but I never really played a zombie game at that point. When I booted it up for the first time, I was even too scared to leave the rooftop because I expected the bots to lead the way, but they never did.

I’m torn between which group of survivors I like more. In this game it’s a highly intense brief storytelling of their start of survival, which was awesome But in L4D2, it was a montage of the other 4 survivors taking everything out some comedy, and took it in a new direction. The tank was truly a fearsome enemy here and they barely defeated it, in 2 Ellis pretty much blows his head off with the grenade launcher and downs it in one shot. Could really go with both.

[@CroweSoT]

You have to remember that Left for Dead 1 took place 2 Weeks after the infection started, then as the trailer states, special infected JUST became a thing. So the trailer is basically their reaction to seeing all special infection for the first time. Left for dead 2 took place 1 week after left for Dead 1 ended (The sacrifice happens as LFD2 survivors make it to the mall and take the car). So although 1 week really isn’t that big of a difference in skill, the characters not only were aware of the special infected but also had names for them (according to rochelles remarks about the special infected and the names the other guys gave them) and how to take them out.

When zoey yelled Francis, that was really realistic! Like that was really good voice acting

[@gavintorres4815]

I really appreciate the subtle signs of despair scattered throughout the trailer. For instance, when Francis yells “Stick together!”, a Smoker infected pops up from above and grabs Bill with it’s tongue. Diverting the group and cutting the amount of firepower going towards the incoming horde in half as Francis revives Bill. Then when the helicopter is seen flying above, Louis makes an attempt to signal for the only other sign of safety. In the shot where we see the barren street, Louis, and the Hunter enemy in the rooftop, the traffic light changes from Yellow to Red. Symbolizing that Louis should have stopped, or slowed down sooner before making his attempt to signal the helicopter alone. Once the Hunter is killed, the car alarm blares throughout the street and alerts the horde when set off. In a brief moment, we see the shadow of the oncoming infected cast into a building. The enlarged shadow only symbolizing the threat and amount of danger these four survivors have just been put in with a single mistake. The four are seemingly cornered in the same spot, unable to determine the right course of action to make it out of the situation alive, all before a loud crash and a thunderous roar echoes through the screams of the infected. In the final shot, we see the camera pan out to show the survivors on the rooftop, the mass of infected stumbling about in the streets below. Only being able to see four normal survivors in a world that’s gone to hell.

I remember begging my mum to get me this and she did! I played this game right till L4D2 was announced. The community I met during my time playing L4D will always be remembered, the times we spent playing expert trying to beat it. Or the times we spent hosting our own Versus game with the friends I made during these times. The amount of glitches we did that I still remember doing. Oh how the years have gone by fast, I hope everyone I ever met is doing well as I know many of them never came back online at some point in time.

This. This is what captures the left 4 dead vibe. Its serious, intense, frightening, but there are moments of calm and quiet. And theres a very present sense of teamwork. And the infected are terrifying. Everything feels like it was lived in. And survived in. Theres remnince of survivors and graffiti leading you to believe the desperation of those left alive. Growing up with that, it was scary to just daydream about everything the survivors encounter, how obviously other survivors had been through there. I know its alot to expect from the people working on back 4 blood, but it doesnt carry the same spirit the predecessors had. And hopefully they can address that before its official release. Or, maybe we as the consumers of this form of media, if we care enough, crowdfund the game studios case to buy the license to the left 4 dead franchise and begin working on something the entire game community has been waiting for, dare I say left 4 dead 3 (name in development). That's what I'd pay big bingo bucks for. I long to see the og character's storyline continue.

Crowdfunding to buy Left For Dead license would be impossible. At best case scenario we can purchase the rights for the game but we can't develop anything good because all of the budget for the game has already been spent on the license

I can't believe how old this game is already. So many memories, and they keep on coming!

[@TrevonInlow]

14 years later, still one of the most amazing games.

[@NicholasUmstead]

Literally one of the best zombie games, even after 14 years it still holds up. Hopefully we get something similar in the future

[@ShiftingCloudsYT]

Back 4 Blood is the closest your gonna get.

[@kenyongrotheer2269]

I can't believe this game turned 16 years old today, still one of the best zombie games out there!

[@franciscomunoz8631]

Not until the 21st. But hell yeah, best zombie game

One of the things I love about this trailer is that all of its core elements are in the game. Most trailers that show something epic happening, ever rarely have you doing the exact same thing in the game (unless it was like a scripted event or something) but throwing bombs, making final stands with your friends, and being charged at by a horde at any given moment absolutely takes place in game. Best trailer/intro ever. Also, Jen Taylors “Run like hell” scream is severely underappreciated

Idk what it is but I just love how they look after each other and they always have their backs. The amount of teammate saves in this one clip is awesome

[@micahmiho]

Memories. Remembered how I was so scared and trembling after playing but still find my way to the computer shop the next day to play it again. How my feet tingles and I felt like really running when tank appears xD The best.

I played it with highschool days back in 2012 and we spent our time reading writings on the wall. The writings on the wall are so realistic, it feels like youre in a real apocalypse.

3:43 she said "Goahwhahaha"

[@VillaWolf]

This cinematic is particularly amazing because it's also the tutorial for the game. It shows off everything you need to know. It even uses the exact music and sound effects from in game too. Brilliant.

[@Trikovioz]

This is still the most honest animated video game gameplay trailer I've seen. Most games exaggerate it but nope, this is literally all of the mechanics and everything

[@beanlord3762]

2:28 what a great scream for that zombie type

[@BucketSoup2023]

ICONIC

[@liamkyle253]

This never gets old, still gives me chills

[@BlackStar1587]

Still one of the best game trailers to ever drop. I’d still watch an animated series on this.

[@jamesromeo8388]

14 yrs later.. as an adult this still get that nightmarish feels

[@austin_hockey]

2:43 Probably one of the best scenes in video game history

[@tae8578]

Got this for Christmas in 2008 when I was 14. Blew my mind when Francis said “merry Christmas”

[@TheOne-qb9un]

2:33 damn that was gansta! 👀

[@tsarfox3462]

I love this intro. Not only is it heart racing, it gives you an intro on mechanics of the game like the specials and car alarms.

[@Rockandroll2498]

0:25 If you focus on the bottom left you can see the Boomer's dead Body.
