Best make a new thread with the details in. Because it's not likely to be L4D specific. I'll sticky it for you.

Just downloaded the demo on 360 last night. I found it pretty enjoyable! Going to buy it as soon as I am paid... If I have any money left after bills :S

Been playing this all weekend,

Playing with friends, using a PC mike is just the most fun I think I have ever had in multi player. Its a little repetitive but on Insane difficulty with a good couple of friends is just so much fun.

I think we need a few edugeeks curing the infection one bullet at a time.

PC Steam handle is Minkey, add me as a friend and have a laugh.

We have a steam group for EduGeek. It would be easiest to co-ordinate L4D games through that.

I played this on the X360 on live last night after my girlfriend bought me the XBLive starter kit (60gb hdd and 3 months gold membership).
It's very intense, but I still prefer to use keyboard and mouse for shootin' things. Plus I think unless you play with people you know, you still get the rambo types who love to run ahead, set off car alarms just so that they kill the most, and you end up losing health trying to save them.
Definitely could be fun LAN party

Unfortunately I would agree with you. But it is good when you play with friends

True, the friends option on steam is great, as you need a good team to make the most of L4D on advanced and above.

Also running to the safe house, then going back to set off the car alarm is just so much fun with a group of like minded individuals. Body counts go through the roof, you just have to coordinate your reloads.

Indeed! I hate it when people are too serious! Like "Blah blah DON'T GO TOO FAR AHEAD STICK TOGETHER!!" In those circumstances i usually go set off car alarms etc Lol. I find it hilarious because they have a lil' fit!

Same here.
I can't really justify spending £35 on a game when I've got bills and christmas to think about..

Been playing the demo on the Xbox almost everyday to get my hord fix.

I can beat that. On VS mode, as the tank. Throw the alarmed car at the survivors. Alarm goes off on contact.

For extra thread spam fun, here's a novelty L4D achivement generator to use and abuse.
