I think I should start a site dedicated to boycotting games. If you join, you agree to boycott every game we list. It'll have every single sequel, and every game a developer broke a promise on.

Let's see if anybody catches on to this one.

I'm assuming most want more, right? I don't see why more is bad in any case. I'd hate to say the cliche "don't buy it" if you disagree with it. If there's a boycott for this game why not the Call of Duty franchise that so may people seem to love to no end (even though I feel it's because its not Halo)?

I've put in…

*counts*

Too many hours into Left 4 Dead. Same goes for my friends who come over to mooch off local coop.

I played it, and from all the extra content you're getting in it, it SO deserves a sequel.

Left4Dead2 bad.
Therefor, entire Call of Duty series bad.
Halo series bad.
Every sports game bad.
Every rhythm game bad.
Every sequel bad.

Sequels happen. QQ. If I see one Halo fan bitch about L4D2 while they buy ODST, I will personally find them and kick them square in the testies. At least this is mostly a full game worth of content.

Oh, and to Will/Sacred, my PS3 just died. :/ My first 360 lasted long. I'm in for a fun day of yelling at Customer Support tomorrow… and I need my Folklore fix.

I'm an Xbox fanbo"y"? I guess you've noticed that this is an Xbox focused site (nevermind those other consoles I own). Funny that I never once mentioned Xbox in this piece outside of the name of this site.

I got it all wrong how? I have a closed mind because I don't side with everyone else? Telling me to do some research is an easy way out. I had this shelved for a little while. I knew it would be an unpopular opinion.

As far as the two COD games I mentioned, yes, they are different games that have come a year apart from each other. That backs up my point. Every Call of Duty game has had very similar game play. Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 are completely different from each other? No, but 2 does have all new content. What dev made them is beside the point. The technical issues preventing Valve from making this an add-on for Left 4 Dead have been stated, but it's all to convenient for most to ignore that point, because it flies in the face of every argument for boycotting Left 4 Dead 2.

You got it all wrong, all I got to say is do some research and keep an open mind, because from the looks of it you came in with a closed mind.

BTW the 2 COD games are completely different games made from different devs.
