Left 4 Dead Map Infects Mushroom Kingdom
Posted by Jon Wahlgren
You gotta shoot 'em in the head
Has the Mushroom Kingdom ever really been a happy place? Seems every time we visit the castle is under siege, the princess is kidnapped and a Brooklyn plumber goes on a killing spree.
The old kingdom looks like it's going to be in for another bumpy ride as, what else, zombies are preparing to muck up the post-apocalyptic place via the fan-made campaign Mushroom Massacre for PC title Left 4 Dead.
Still very much a work-in-progress, the campaign seems heavily based on Super Mario 64, with Zoey, Louis, Francis and Bill so far only having Bob-omb Battlefield to try not to die in. Author DoritoClock is open for suggestion on what other locales in which to plop the undead in, so hop on over to the L4Dmaps page and let 'em know where you'd want to make dead things deader.
If you've got a PC copy of the game, this might be worth keeping on your radar.

Another reason why Valve games are always superior on PC.

I agree with drake not only because he stole my comment but because it's so true.

Anyone still play this on 360? I've been wanting to get back in, but I don't feel like playing with randoms very much.

Valve games require to much upgrades for your pc to actually play them. pass.

Source is like a 5 year old engine, it can run on most modern machines without too much strain.

Indeed, Panda. My video card is crap and I can run TF2 pretty nicely.
Left 4 Dead is another story...

Really? I dunno, I'm on a two-year-old Macbook so I can't run the PC version anyway, I didn't realize it was way more intense than TF2. Must be the horde.
Always with the horde.

That, folks, is why PC gaming is so good. That, and the freeware.
