Left 4 Dead 4 Ever

Because Valve is one of the greatest video game studios around, it's no surprise to learn that their zombie-killing, friendship-forging, blood-gorging multiplayer masterpiece Left 4 Dead is getting some downloadable content soon. Still good to hear, though. Makes me all tingly.

According to Valve writer Chet Faliszek, the first batch of DLC will arrive simultaneously for both the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game. A quick background check on Mr. Faliszek doesn't turn up anything on his being a notorious liar, so I'll take him at his word. In addition to new scenarios, the update will include versus modes for the Dead Air and Death Toll campaigns. No more forcing you to play nice now, jerk.

I'm sorry. Please don't shoot me and/or eat my brains.

Still uncertain is whether the DLC will be free. Valve traditionally gives its PC gamers DLC compliments of the chef, but word is that Microsoft isn't so keen on just giving valuable content away on the 360. Hence the freebiness of the offical Subway Sandwich Restaurant dashboard theme.
